Tucho Repeats: German Blessing for Homosexuals Lacks Vatican Approval

Cardinal Tucho Fernández repeated to VaticanNews.va on May 6 that the German “blessing guide” for homosexuals and other couples in mortal sin does not have Vatican approval. The pro-homosexual cardinal is a soft-porn author and Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith.
He stated that a letter he sent in November 2024 regarding an earlier draft of the German bishops’ blessing guidelines remains fully applicable to the final version approved in April 2025. The German bishops’ document in question is titled Blessing Gives Strength to Love. They falsely claimed Vatican support for their guidelines.
The Vatican’s release of the November 2024 letter was “in agreement with Pope Leo XIV.”
“That letter is the only and final response,” Tucho told Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, chairman of the German bishops’ liturgy commission, during a meeting in the Vatican on November 12, 2025.
Tucho explained that although the final German text differs somewhat from the original draft …Bongata

Apparently Tucho does not understand Synodality. The local bishops will consult the local population and determine the local response. Africa can say, "No" to any blessings and Germany can say, "Yes" to every blessing.
No longer One
No longer Holy
No longer Catholic
No longer Apostolic

Germans, please make sure they first go to confession rather quickly before issuing a blessing.

Knock and the Door Will Open: The Long Road to Bangkok Thailand - Catholic League

Fr. Gordon J. MacRae
(This story originally appeared on Beyond These Stone Walls)
I wrote a post recently entitled “Book of Tobit: The Angel Raphael on the Road with Pornchai Moontri.” It was an allegory, like the Book of Tobit itself. An allegory is a sort of genre of Sacred Scripture in which a story is told more for its meaning than for its historical value. Every parable of Jesus falls into this same genre. A part of the story of Tobit, and his son Tobias and their interactions with the Archangel Raphael in disguise were all part of the allegory. That does not mean the allegory did not happen. It means only that the truth of the story does not depend upon someone believing it. There was one aspect of the Book of Tobit story that became a centerpiece of my blog linked above. At the beginning and the end of the Book of Tobit there is a mysterious dog whose presence, meaning and purpose remain a mystery.

Vatican Synodal Reports Assaults Holy Scripture – Bishop Strickland: The report by the Vatican's synodal group on homosexuality “is deeply alarming and stands in direct contradiction to the constant teaching of the Catholic Church”, writes Bishop Joseph Strickland: “To suggest that the sin does not consist in the same-sex relationship itself is not merely confusing language. It is a direct assault upon Catholic moral doctrine and upon the words of Scripture itself.” Monsignor Strickland adds that this atmosphere of doctrinal instability is part of the reason why the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X argues that extraordinary measures are necessary in our time.

Bishop Strickland responding to Synod Group 9's report

The destruction of doctrine under the language of “discernment,” “listening,” & “lived experience” is one of the gravest spiritual dangers of our time. Truth is not determined by experience. Truth is revealed by God An Emergency in the Church - Pillars of Faith

Don Curzio Nitoglia: USA and Catholicism

ANTI-CATHOLIC PROPAGANDA IN THE 19TH CENTURY
Introduction
In the 19th century, anti-Catholic/Roman polemics in the USA multiplied and used the best propaganda tools of the time, starting with the opening of several new daily and weekly newspapers, the most violent of which was The Protestant, a paper founded by the Presbyterian pastor George Bourne in New York in 1830 (See Antony Chester, “The Monstrous Offspring of Babylon the Great”. At the Roots of American Anti-Catholicism, Rimini, Il Cerchio, 2026, p. 59).
Protestant tabloid sensationalism
The tone was very heated and filled with sensationalism, which remained the core of Protestant proselytism, based on scandalous gossip that presented Catholics, consecrated persons, and priests as essentially corrupt. This type of propaganda has continued to the present day through Hollywood (p. 60), in which pre-conciliar Catholicism is presented as inevitably and unfailingly characterized by widespread negligence, decadence, and intellectual …Bongata

Church in Mozambique Destroyed in Islamist Attack

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.

Synod Proposes Consulting Non-Believers and Ex-Catholics in Bishop Selection

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. …Bongata

Since Rome has lost the faith and is the seat of the Antichrist, it is worth noting that the synod of apostates—homosexual activists and worshippers of Pachamama—consults with non-believers, apostates, and enemies of God and of the Church.

British Go to the Polls Tomorrow for Local Elections – And With Labour Expected To Suffer Heavy Losses, It May Spell the End of Starmer’s Premiership (VIDEOS)

Labour expected to suffer electoral humiliation.
From scandal to crisis and back, failing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer keeps dragging himself through the motions of a pretend leadership – always involved in the most pointless summits and meetings.
But tomorrow (7), something may fundamentally change.
As British voters cast ballots in local elections, they could be sealing the end of Starmer’s premiership.
Associated Press reported:
“Starmer’s center-left Labour Party is expected to take a battering in elections for local authorities across England and for semiautonomous legislatures in Scotland and Wales.
With the prime minister’s popularity in the doldrums from a weak economy and repeated questions about his judgment, rival parties are framing Thursday’s votes as a referendum on Starmer and his 2-year-old government. ‘Vote Reform, Get Starmer Out’ is the campaign slogan of the hard-right party Reform UK.”

Britain’s next national election is set for 2029, but there are …

Council's Peritus: "Vatican II Liturgical Reform Was Stillborn"

Selected quotes from the book A Wider View of the Second Vatican Council by Archimandrite Boniface Luykx. Republished in English by Angelico Press, Brooklyn, NY, 2025.
Archimandrite Boniface Luykx (1915–2004) was a Belgian Premonstratensian canon regular, professor, and liturgical scholar. In the 1940s and 1950s he was among the leading figures of the Catholic liturgical movement and taught for many years at the University of Notre Dame’s Summer School of Liturgy. From 1960 to 1971 he served as a missionary in Africa, where he founded the Monastère de l’Assomption and taught at Lovanium University in Kinshasa, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo). Beginning in 1959, he was a member of the Preparatory Commission for the Liturgy and later served as a liturgical consultant and expert (peritus) at the Second Vatican Council, as well as one of the authors of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy (Sacrosanctum Concilium).
After the Council, he became a member of the Consilium …

Vatican Report: "Sin… Does Not Consist in the Homosexuals’ Relationship…"

Today, Synod.va published the final report from Study Group 9 on theological criteria and synodal methodologies for discerning doctrinal, pastoral, and ethical questions. It is de facto on homosexuality.
The report rejects the term “controversial” and says such matters should be treated as “emerging” issues (page 6).
Repeatedly, it speaks of an alleged “paradigm shift” in how the Church interprets the teaching: “The commitment to practising the synodal nature of the Church implies the implementation of a ‘paradigm shift.’” (page 8)
The final report even analogizes present ecclesial disputes to the Jerusalem Council’s overturning of circumcision requirements.
It demands that synodal outcomes should not be predetermined by “pre-established formulas.” And: “The Church’s mission is not a matter of abstractly proclaiming and deductively applying principles...” (page 9)
The final report invents “the stability of a healthy affective relationship” in homosexual contexts as a positive …Bongata

The mission of the Church is to preach the Gospel and to promote peace. If anyone wants to criticise me for doing so, they should do so truthfully. The Church has spoken out against nuclear weapons for years, so there is no doubt about that."

Leo XIV’s New Bishop Resigned Before Consecration

Rev Gerardo Saco resigned from his appointment as Bishop of the Diocese of Tagbilaran in the Philippines.
Pope Leo XIV appointed Rev. Saco on 25 March 2026, with the episcopal ordination scheduled for 26 May.
On 5 May, Cebu Archbishop Alberto Uy announced that Leo XIV had accepted Rev Saco’s resignation.
Rev Saco suddenly discovered a “change of heart” and “human limitations and inadequacies”. However, it is more likely that there is an undisclosed issue behind this decision.
Choosing Bishops with Hidden Scandals
Declining after papal appointment and before ordination used to be very rare in the Church. It has increased in the past decade as a side effect of deliberately appointing compromised or unsuitable candidates.
