Pope Leo XIV, 71, has resumed duties from his hospital room, the Vatican confirmed on Thursday. He received Archbishop Paolo Rudelli, the Vatican’s deputy chief of staff, on Thursday afternoon. As Substitute for General Affairs at the Secretariat of State, Rudelli oversees much of the Holy See’s daily administration. Doctors Luigi Carbone and Stefano Margaritora reported that Thursday morning’s routine medical check-ups yielded normal results. A chest X-ray showed good recovery of the operated lung. According to the medical team, the Pope can carry out daily activities independently. His physiotherapy has progressed beyond breathing exercises to include a full range of physical movements. “Overall, the post-operative recovery is progressing as expected,” the doctors stated in Thursday’s medical bulletin.

Without scruples. 'As long as I'm doing well.' Meanwhile, souls are going to ruin because of him (AL) and he turns his back on the faithful Catholics in China and Nigeria.
China unilaterally chooses a bishop, and Leo XIV retroactively “appoints” him. The Vatican press service announced today that Father Ignatius Ding Zuyao, 40, was consecrated Bishop of Haimen, in China's Jiangsu province. He is now the youngest bishop worldwide. Leo XIV reportedly confirmed his appointment on 24 August 2026. However, Ding was selected unilateral on 14 May 2026 by the Chinese selection process - 102 days before the alleged "appointment" by Leo XIV. Ding was consecrated by Bishop Joseph Shen Bin of Shanghai. The latter is vice-president of the Chinese governmental ‘Patriotic Association’. During Ding's consecration, the secretary-general of the Chinese Bishops' Conference read the approval document issued by that body. During an episcopal consecration in the Church, the papal bull is read - not so today. Furthermore, AsiaNews.it highlights a pattern in China's episcopal appointments. Ding is the youngest bishop in the world. Four of the five bishops appointed in China in …Suli
Mt 22:14 “For many are called, but few are chosen.” In the end, the remaining chosen ones will be the traditionalists who follow sacred tradition and who have kept the faith despite excommunications (see the case of St. Athanasius of Alexandria with Pope Liberius and the excommunication).
Eric Deters reveals to Joanna Coles how his friendship with Kimberly Guilfoyle unraveled ..after, he says, she asked him for $100,000 to pay an American Express bill while awaiting confirmation as ambassador to Greece. The longtime Trump supporter describes the texts he released, the moment Guilfoyle warned that the dispute could cost her the job and an awkward day he spent with her and Don Jr. as their relationship was falling apart. Deters also explains why he turned to Trump’s inner circle for help on behalf of hundreds of former patients who allege they received unnecessary spine surgeries. Now he says he plans to sue Guilfoyle, seek Don Jr.’s testimony and take his account to Congress.

Gemelli Hospital has a special ward for the Pope, but since they saw a younger and more athletic Pope, the authorities decided to renovate it without thinking that Leo XIV would need it so soon. Today he couldn't use it because it's closed.
Amazing! Do you know what's more amazing? That we care so much about the well-being of the enemies who took over the Church and are destroying it from within. Is that Stockholm syndrome?
Leo XIV has spent another peaceful night at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital following lung cancer surgery, the Vatican announced today. Pope Leo XIV got up, had breakfast and continues to recover as expected. He has resumed walking, eating regular meals and undergoing respiratory physiotherapy. On Wednesday evening, he also concelebrated Mass in a room near his hospital room. Despite the surgery, Pope Leo still intends to travel to Uruguay, Argentina and Peru from November 6-17, Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni confirmed yesterday. The ambitious 12-day journey, the longest of his pontificate, includes numerous flights and a visit to the high-altitude city of Cusco. It is scheduled to begin just 24 days after his operation. It raises questions about whether the Pope will be fit enough to undertake such a demanding itinerary. Peruvian President Keiko Fujimori has acknowledged that adjustments may be necessary depending on his recovery. Cardinal Isao Kikuchi has said Leo XIV deliberately scheduled …Suli
Who cares what the false prophet ate for breakfast and did he poo or pee. We should care about the souls he's been destroying and the Church he's been wrecking to pieces
BAPTIST PASTOR ASKS KIDS TO SMASH STATUES OF MARY | SG News There is something profoundly disturbing about watching children being encouraged to destroy an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary while adults look on approvingly. Not because Catholics believe a statue is God. Not because a piece of plaster or stone possesses divine power. But because of what such an act teaches a child about faith, about other Christians, and about the woman whom Scripture itself calls blessed among women. At Stedfast Baptist Church in Cedar Hill, Texas, that troubling lesson became part of a church activity. According to LifeSiteNews, pastor Jonathan Shelley permitted children to smash statues depicting the Virgin Mary and angels during a church gathering, using the destruction as a reward in a “Bible drills” exercise. Videos shared by Shelley through his X account, @bannedpastor, on October 12 and 13 reportedly show children striking Catholic religious statues with a hammer in front of the congregation …Suli
Handing children hammers and encouraging them to smash statues of the Blessed Virgin Mary is not Christian formation. It is a grotesque spectacle of religious fanaticism, a disgraceful abuse of pastoral responsibility, and a scandal that ought to horrify Christians of every denomination.
"We got a Mary, for all the Catholics." At Steadfast Baptist Church, pastor Jonathan Shelley leads the kids into 'bible drills,' with the winner rewarded with smashing statues of Mary and various angelic figures.
Major banks accused of closing accounts accounts of MAGA, pro-life and other conservative groups Representative Ryan Zinke blasts Wall Street as a new report accuses nine major banks of debanking conservative customers.

The panel also highlights the ongoing debate over the FAA's controversial new AI aviation tool.
"Conservative" institutions are supporting the homosexual activist James Martin SJ. Two Catholic groups - the substack.com account 'The Pillar' and the Napa Institute - have given public prominence to pro-homosexual James Martin. On 12 October, JD Flynn of 'The Pillar' published a 96-minute interview with Martin. He claimed that practising homosexuals (who "do whatever") are "treated like dirt" when they are told not to receive Holy Communion. Martin accused priests and other Catholics of mistreating homosexuals, whom he portrayed as victims of even physical violence. Flynn did not challenge these unsubstantiated allegations. The following day, Martin took part in the Napa Institute's annual Eucharistic procession through Midtown Manhattan, starting at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Founded in 2010 by businessman Timothy Busch and Jesuit Father Robert Spitzer, the California-based Napa Institute attracts conservative Catholic bishops and wealthy donors. Its flagship event, the annual Summer …Suli
Marriage and family: “We can no longer continue as before. It is a change, an evolution.” At today’s closing press conference of the Vatican meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia, Msgr. Philippe Bordeyne, president of the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences, declared: “We can no longer continue as before” in family ministry. Asked about marital failures, he described an “evolution” in the meeting’s approach to family “fragility”: rather than focusing on irregular marital situations, it now treats fragility as a universal human condition. “I don’t know whether it is a step forward, but it is a change, an evolution.”
Bordeyne : « Nous ne pouvons plus continuer comme avant » dans la pastorale familiale. Et : « Je ne sais pas si c’est un pas en avant, mais c’est un changement, une évolution. »
This is the same 'logic' which led the Israelites, and afterwards most Protestant denominations to accept divorce. Jesus was unequivocal about the sanctity of marriage. Becoming "stiff-necked" is not an "evolution".
Why Won’t America’s Aging Elite Retire? | Interesting Times with Ross Douthat American leaders are staying in office past their prime. Boomers are reluctant to relinquish control — from political offices to corner offices — to the detriment of their juniors. In a society where the elderly hold so much power, should younger generations revolt? My guest today is Samuel Moyn, a professor at Yale Law School, and he argues that American democracy is distorted by the power of the old.
