Liza Rosen @LizaRosen0000 Muslims all over Europe are freaking out after Sweden made a historic and courageous decision: it will no longer use the term “Islamophobia,” coined by the Muslim Brotherhood, because it is a politically manipulated concept aimed at silencing criticism of Islam. Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard announced that her government will push the European Union and the United Nations to stop using this fraudulent term. The concept of “Islamophobia” was deliberately designed to equate legitimate criticism of Islamic doctrine with racism. It was weaponized to shut down discussion about core Islamic texts containing commands to wage war, rape, and subjugate non-Muslims. Sweden just recognized what millions of Europeans already know: criticizing a religion that openly calls for the murder and sexual enslavement of non-believers is not a phobia, but basic common sense and self-preservation. This is a massive blow to the Islamist lobby across Europe.
"I musulmani di tutta Europa sono indignati dopo che la Svezia ha compiuto un passo storico e coraggioso: Smetterà di usare il termine "islamofobia" – coniato dai Fratelli Musulmani – dato che si tratta di un concetto manipolato politicamente e progettato per mettere a tacere le critiche all'Islam. Il Ministro degli Esteri svedese, Maria Malmer Stenergäd, ha annunciato che il suo governo solleciterà sia l'Unione Europea che le Nazioni Unite a smettere di usare questo termine fraudolento. Il concetto di "islamofobia" è stato deliberatamente creato per equiparare la legittima critica della dottrina islamica al razzismo. È stato strumentalizzato per soffocare il dibattito sui testi fondamentali dell'Islam, che contengono precetti che incitano alla guerra, allo stupro e alla sottomissione dei non musulmani. La Svezia ha appena riconosciuto ciò che milioni di europei già sanno: criticare una (falsa) religione che promuove apertamente l'omicidio e la schiavitù sessuale dei non credenti …Mai
"Los musulmanes de toda Europa están indignados después de que Suecia tomara una decisión histórica y valiente: dejará de utilizar el término «islamofobia» —acuñado por la Hermandad Musulmana—, dado que se trata de un concepto manipulado políticamente cuyo objetivo es silenciar las críticas al islam. La ministra de Asuntos Exteriores sueca, Maria Malmer Stenergard, anunció que su gobierno instará tanto a la Unión Europea como a las Naciones Unidas a dejar de emplear este término fraudulento. El concepto de «islamofobia» fue diseñado deliberadamente para equiparar la crítica legítima a la doctrina islámica con el racismo. Fue instrumentalizado para sofocar el debate en torno a los textos islámicos fundamentales, los cuales contienen preceptos que incitan a la guerra, la violación y la subyugación de los no musulmanes. Suecia acaba de reconocer lo que millones de europeos ya saben: criticar una (falsa) religión que aboga abiertamente por el asesinato y la esclavitud sexual de …Mai
Glenn Beck: "Where do you stand on the WEF?" RFK Jr: "We shouldn't be paying any attention to it. It's a billionaires boys club that’s arranging for the world to shift wealth upward, and to clamp down totalitarian controls on everybody else". "It's astonishing to me that these people go to Davos in their private jets, and they're able to tell these world leaders how to govern us in ways that eradicate our constitutional and civil rights." "COVID we shifted $4 trillion of wealth upward. We closed all of the little guys. They were all colluding with each other to censor guys like me complaining about it."

Overall effect: moves emphasis from the bishop’s ontological character to his operational style within an ongoing process, while increasing the risk of politicisation and factionalism.
Synod.va published on May 5 the final report of Study Group number 7 on the selection of bishops: “In the selection of a bishop, it is necessary to consider, among other qualities, his ‘synodal competencies’.” (page 3) At least, the document also mentions Catholic criteria: “Among the qualities sought in a bishop are moral integrity, doctrinal orthodoxy, pastoral sensitivity, leadership ability, and the capacity to administer the Church’s goods.” (page 3) The main idea of the report is expanding lay influence in bishop selection: “The cathedral chapter… finance council… lay council… youth and the poor should also be convened.” (page 4) The report proposes that, when a diocese is vacant, a committee be established to work with the Apostolic Nuncio, consisting of priests, consecrated religious, and laypersons. (page 5) Informants should include women, youth, academics, ecclesial movement members, the poor, marginalized persons, and representatives of Indigenous or minority communities. …Mai
From DA: "I am a practicing catholic. And I need to say something that's going to make a lot of people uncomfortable. Nigeria, the Sahel, India, Syria, Bangladesh, Pakistan, hundreds of Christians have been murdered this year alone. Churches burned to the ground, pastors kidnapped and killed. Communities that have practiced their faith for centuries are being wiped out. Pope Leo XIV has said almost nothing. NO named condemnations, NO emergency visits, NO breaking of protocol, just quiet platitudes about dialogue and peace - directed at nobody in particular. BUT the week Trump escalated the Iran war? Leo flew across continents, gave media interviews, posted viral messages and had three Cardinals appear on 60 minutes in what felt like a coordinated response. Bishop Strickland was removed for defending the Church doctrine. Bishop Fernández in Puerto Rico was removed for defending religious exemptions that the cathechism itself supports. During Covid, goverments padlocked churches across …Mai

The irreversible damage being done to our youth is beyond sad — it’s criminal. Watch Faith Groleau, a brave detransitioner, lay it out: “I was experimented on. I was not told they were experimental. I was told it was medicine and that it would help… It gave me complications the doctors ignored. I have a body that does not work.” She was fast-tracked, cut up, and drugged as a child. Now she’s physically disabled with recurring hernias, collapsed lung issues, and a medical system that refuses to take responsibility. This isn’t “care.” This is medical experimentation on confused kids — cheered on by activists and politicians while evidence mounts that puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries cause lifelong harm, infertility, and regret. The Cass Review, European countries pulling back, and exploding lawsuits prove it. But in Canada, the Liberals keep pushing this ideology like it’s sacred. We’re sacrificing an entire generation on the altar of woke feelings. Protect …Mai

Islamists attacked the parish of St. Louis de Montfort in Meza, Cabo Delgado, northern Mozambique, on April 30. According to Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), militants entered the parish in the afternoon and destroyed the church, parish offices, missionaries’ residence, and kindergarten. Buildings were set on fire and the historic church was reduced to rubble. The parish was founded in 1946 and was one of the main Catholic landmarks in the region. Bishop António Juliasse of Pemba said civilians were captured and forced to listen to speeches during the attack. The Cameroonian missionaries serving the parish were not present when the attackers arrived and were unharmed. There were no confirmed deaths during the April 30 attack. The insurgency in Cabo Delgado has continued since 2017 and has caused thousands of deaths and displaced more than one million people. Church officials say at least 118 churches and chapels have been destroyed during the conflict. Picture: ACN, #newsQveepjzxvl

Stay Faithful As Doctrine Comes Under Fire The Gospel reading emphasizes the importance of remaining faithful to Jesus amidst current controversies within the Church. Despite attempts to change Church teachings on marriage and sexuality, the truth remains unchanged. The Church, founded by Jesus, will endure, and Catholics are called to remain steadfast in their faith, relying on objective truth rather than personal opinions. Fr.
