Nel video, padre Agnello Stoia parroco della Basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano, dice :" ...il diavolo, per quanto mi stia molto simpatico, e non è mai così brutto come lo dipingono sicuramente... che magari mette pepe un pò nella vita della gente..."

A two-metre-high, blood-red sculpture of Jesus Christ holding two Uzi submachine guns is on display at L’Aérosol in Marseille. The blasphemy was made by French provocateur James Colomina. It was initially placed outside the venue before being moved indoors. Colomina claims the armed Christ is an anti-violence statement.

Monsignor Rossetti Continues Deliverance Ministry Despite Removal as Exorcist
Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, removed in June as an exorcist by Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy, is continuing his deliverance ministry.
In an August 3 email to subscribers, Monsignor Rossetti said he remains a priest in good standing in his home Diocese of Syracuse, New York, and will continue his work through the St. Michael Center, which operates within the territory of the Washington archdiocese.
On June 3, Cardinal McElroy removed Rossetti as an archdiocesan exorcist and ended all affiliation between the Archdiocese of Washington and Rossetti's St. Michael Center.
Monsignor Rossetti argues that he retains priestly faculties in several dioceses and exorcist faculties in two others. He also says his own bishop has encouraged him to continue the ministry.
The June controversy followed Rossetti's eccentric claim that UFOs "are, in fact, demons." Cardinal McElroy - who had removed him for this claim - later …

Concistoro, Leone XIV indica ai cardinali il primato dell’ascolto
Alle 7.30 di questa mattina, nella Basilica Vaticana e sulla tomba dell’apostolo Pietro, Leone XIV ha presieduto la Santa Messa che ha aperto il secondo Concistoro straordinario del suo pontificato, in programma il 26 e il 27 giugno. È il secondo appuntamento di questo genere dopo quello del 7 e 8 gennaio scorso, ma non si tratta di un evento isolato. Per esplicita volontà del Papa, manifestata già a braccio al termine della prima riunione, il Concistoro straordinario è ormai configurato come un metodo di governo destinato a ripetersi con cadenza annuale, sempre a ridosso della solennità dei Santi Apostoli. La scelta della data, dunque, non è affatto casuale.
Nell’omelia, Prevost si è soffermato sull’immagine giovannea della vite vera. Da essa ha tratto la grammatica dell’intero appuntamento: «Rimanete in me e io in voi», con l’avvertimento che «senza di me non potete far nulla» e, insieme, l’attesa di «molto frutto». È …

"Leo XIV Continues Francis' Program, Empowers Hardened Synodalists"
After the election of Leo XIV, Aldo Maria Valli wanted to believe in the new pope and in the possibility of a change of direction, he admitted on his blog on June 25. Valli was the longtime Vatican correspondent for Italy’s public broadcaster, RAI.
But: “The cold shower (or rather, a whole series of cold showers) quickly woke me from that dream in the form of statements fully in line with the Bergoglian disaster and a succession of ‘peace & love’ initiatives, marked by a shallow humanitarianism completely devoid of references to transcendence, sin, conversion, and the salvation of the soul.”
On the consistory on Friday and Saturday, he writes: “Under Leo XIV, the Church is not merely avoiding any reversal of course; it is enthusiastically reaffirming the synodal model, transforming it into a permanent method of ecclesial governance.”
Valli points to the names of the cardinals (Ryś, Fernández, Brislin, and Grech) chosen …

Leo XIV Met Homosexual Activist Bad Bunny
On Monday evening, Pope Leo XIV met with the Puerto Rican homosexual activist and singer Bad Bunny at Madrid's Bernabéu Stadium.
Both were touring Spain, the Vatican said on Tuesday.
Spanish media report that several photos were taken, including by members of the papal entourage, and discussions have taken place about whether and when to publish them.
"Bad Bunny" is the stage name of Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, a Puerto Rican rapper. He is known for his "fluid" gender expression, evident in his fashion choices, nail polish, wearing skirts and kissing men during performances. He is also an outspoken supporter of the homosexual livestyle.

Corpus Christi: Does Leo XIV Believe That Jesus Becomes Bread?
In his homily in Madrid on June 7, Leo XIV used the phrase that “the risen Lord [...] becomes bread to satiate our hunger for life.”
Catholic theology rejects the idea that Christ is changed into bread (the heresy commonly called impanation). At the Transubstantiation, the opposite happens: the substance of bread becomes the Body of Christ.
Read in a literal sense, the phrase “becomes bread” is at least ambiguous. Such language can only be understood in some poetic sense.
A normal formulation for a pope or even simple Catholic theologian would be: “The sacrifice of Christ is made sacramentally present under the appearance of bread.”

Leo XIV Authorises Bishops to Dismiss Monastic Superiors
In a Rescriptum ex Audientia Sanctissimi approved on March 25 and published on May 28, Leo XIV introduced a new procedural faculty concerning the governance of religious institutes and monasteries.
The measure grants the Vatican Congregation for Religious the authority to permit a diocesan bishop to dismiss the superior of a monastery under canon 699 §2 of the Code of Canon Law.
The Dicastery is led by Sister Simona Brambilla, Prefect, and Sister Tiziana Merletti, Secretary.
The rescript is signed by Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Secretary of State. It also notes that Pope Francis had previously expressed support for this approach.

Cardinal Müller Attacks FSSPX and Roman Curia
Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller spoke to kath.net on May 26 about the episcopal consecrations on July 1 by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X. Main quotes..
No sympathy for the FSSPX
“They understand themselves as an emergency community that will remain at a distance until the millions of Catholics who have fallen into Modernism, thousands of bishops and priests, and the current Pope return to the Church which the Society of St. Pius X preserves as the holy remnant of the one true Catholic Church.”
Can the Entire Church Have Fallen Into Error?
“From a purely human and theological perspective, it cannot be the case that the two thousand bishops and all the popes who have gathered at the Council have been mistaken on dogmatic issues or have deviated from the apostolic tradition, with the exception of a single bishop who, through illegal episcopal ordinations alone, ensures the Church’s continued existence”
No one has a right to become a bishop …

Christianity Without Cross Is Blasphemy - Bishop Erik Varden
"The Gospel of Jesus Christ is an end in itself," Bishop Erik Varden of Trondheim, Norway, told OsvNews.com on 11 May during a trip to the USA.
"Any attempt to instrumentalise the Gospel for a subsidiary purpose, whether cultural, ideological or political, is suspect."
He warned against "any attempt to brandish Christianity void of the message and presence of the Wounded and Risen One".
And: "Any presentation of Christianity that abstracts the scandal of the Cross, or that uses the Cross perversely as a weapon with which to strike others, is veering towards heresy or even blasphemy."
However, the main focus of the interview is psychology, not religion. Some of his main points are:
- absolutizing our own experience
- immersed in my own experience
- the drama of my existence
- learn to live with my wound
- being wounded is the human norm
- a remembrance of healing
- living enclosed in ourselves
- shut myself off
- a new way of …

Archbishop Sample Orders St Michael Prayer After Eucharists
Archbishop Alexander Sample of Portland, Oregon, has renewed a 2018 directive requiring the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel to be recited after Eucharists across the Archdiocese.
The instruction was included in a May 12 pastoral letter published on ArchdPdx.org
The prayer should be said “after the conclusion of every Mass celebrated in the archdiocese,” describing it as part of a spiritual response to challenges facing the Church.
The “Mission Renewal” initiative includes consecration of the archdiocese to the Sacred Heart, novenas, Eucharistic processions, fasting and penance, and works of mercy.
Explaining the reason for the prayer, Archbishop Sample wrote that “Satan seeks to divide, disrupt and interfere,” adding that united prayer against “the enemy” is crucial for renewal efforts.

How the Next President of the German Bishops’ Conference Led His Former Diocese of Hildesheim
On 28 April 2026, Katholisches.info reported on how Bishop Heiner Wilmer, 65, had led the Diocese of Hildesheim from 2018 to 2026, citing several recent scandals from his time there.
In February 2026, Monsignor Wilmer was elected chairman of the German Bishops’ Conference. In March 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed him as the bishop of Münster, the largest diocese in Germany by membership. His installation as Bishop of Münster is scheduled for 21 June.

Francis to Male Caregiver in Concubinage: “Do They Give You Communion?”
“Pope Francis was like a second father to me, and I still miss him deeply,” said his nurse, Massimiliano Strappetti, 56, in an interview with Corriere.it on April 19.
Francis hated hospital stays and joked whenever he had to go to Gemelli Hospital: “You’ll see—the cardinals are preparing the conclave now.”
“Every morning when he woke up, he would ask me, ‘Hello, who died today?’ That was just how he was,” Strappetti recalled.
One day, Strappetti told Francis that he was divorced and living with another woman. The pope replied: “And what’s the problem?”
He then asked: “Do they let you receive Communion? If not, tell me the names of those priests who refuse - I’ll go speak to them myself!”
For Strappetti, Francis was a “surprising” pope.

Leo XIV Rumored to Prepare Excommunication of FSSPX
Pope Leo XIV has "decided to follow the '1988 jurisprudence'" with regard to the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) on 1 July, reports Rorate-Caeli.Blogspot.com on 25 April, referring to anonymous Roman sources.
This means: "He is said to have already had a decree prepared that is similar in tone and content to the one promulgated by Pope John Paul II through Cardinal Bernardin Gantin, Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, on 1 July 1988."
The decree would declare the excommunication of the bishops involved, denouncing these episcopal consecrations as a "schismatic act".
