Archbishop Josef Grünwidl of Vienna, Austria, wants to discuss celibacy: "My question is whether a celibate life should always be a prerequisite for becoming a priest. In our Orthodox and Protestant sister churches, it is different." In an interview with Tt.com on 5 April, he said: "I would be happier if people reflected on this question and concluded that those who feel called to a celibate life should live it that way, but that there should also be the possibility of being a priest with a family." When asked about Viennese cathedral priest Anton Faber, Archbishop Grünwidl said he found his situation difficult. Rev. Faber appears at Viennese social events accompanied by Natalie Nemec. "I don't refer to any woman as my life partner, but I'm very happy that Natalie is by my side at official events. As a good friend, she always knows that I stand by her and she by me," Rev Faber recently told Austrian media. Archbishop Grünwidl commented: "We are in discussions to find a solution."

PeachProof @PeachProof23 The public school system isn't what we thought. "I’m literally getting my degree in education right now and what I just found in my textbook is terrifying. This isn't just a "conspiracy" anymore—it’s written in black and white." Parents, you NEED to see this.
1. Aquinas (and St. Agustine also) said that early gestation unborn babies are vegetable and animals before becoming human. Pro-abortion Catholic President Biden and Catholic Speaker Pelosi both quoted this in their defense of early legal abortion. 2.Aquinas said that “conscience” must always be followed. This is absolutely contrary to Catholic teaching, but some people still cite this as justification for abortion. 3. Aquinas foolishly said that lying is never permissible. Imagine the classic situation that you are hiding Jews in your attic during WW2 and the Nazis ask you if you are hiding Jews. According to Aquinas you must tell the Nazis “Yes they are in the attic” which results in the murder of the Jews. Aquinas is wrong...Biblically wrong.
1. Was there clarity regarding the infusion of the soul at that time settled by the Church ? You can be sure St Thomas would have changed his opinion to be in conformity. He is obviously not infallible. 2. Conscience is "with knowledge". Plainly without knowledge would mean something different. As Catholic Doctrine is clear i.e the science exists and is clear that abortion is a grave moral evil , those who support it follow contrascience. 3. Is a bit of a straw man and obviously the action of providing information to aid evil would not be supported by Aquinas. You could truthfully hold the position that Christ determines the sons of Abraham as those who like Abraham, rejoiced at His coming. Being God, He gets to define who they are surely. What labels men choose to erroneously co-opt is their own affair. You are quite free to ignore the misdesignation without scruple. So you can with good conscience say quite truthfully there are no Jews here, thereby protecting your neighbour and avoid …Okunengi
Bishop Barron had followed provocative male accounts on his Facebook. Word on Fire explained it away, saying he had been the subject of a recent hack. The problem? He had followed similar accounts, going at least as far back as January 2024...
In the Mosque of Algiers on April 13, Leo XIV - after removing his shoes, as required by protocol - stood in “silent reflection” before the miḥrāb, reports VaticanNews.va. The miḥrāb is the niche in the wall that indicates the direction of Mecca. He then spoke with Imam Mohamed Mamoun al Qasimi, who was also dressed in white. According to Vatican.va, Leo XIV said that the mosque “represents the space that belongs to God; a sacred, divine space”. He prayed that "the peace and justice of the Kingdom of God may also be present among us". Picture: Vatian Media, #newsEzbzudtlfz
AI Overview Based on available reports regarding Pope Leo's activities in late 2025, specifically his visit to a famous mosque in Istanbul, he showed deep respect for the site as a place of prayer. Reports indicate he entered the mosque in a "spirit of reflection and attentive listening". While the provided results do not contain a direct, verbatim quote from Pope Leo explicitly calling the mosque a "Sacred Space of God," he treated the location with high regard. It was noted, however, that Pope Leo did not pray within the mosque, as he stated, "I prefer to pray in a Catholic church".
Catholic Leaders Defend Pope and Criticize Trump After Harsh Attacks A prominent conservative bishop who serves on President Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission was among those who called on the president to apologize. nytimes.com/2026/04/13/us/trump-pope-leo.html President Trump faced a groundswell of criticism from Christians across the political spectrum on Monday for his social-media posts attacking Pope Leo XIV and depicting himself as a Jesus-like figure. Pushback was so forceful, including some from Mr. Trump’s supporters, that by late morning on Monday the Jesus image, which had been posted on the president’s social-media account, was deleted. The president’s tirade on Sunday night against Pope Leo, one week after Easter Sunday, accused him of being too liberal and “weak on crime,” and even falsely claimed credit for the pope’s election. For months, tension between the White House and the Vatican has been mounting amid the turbulence of the Trump administration’s aggressive …Okunengi

"But from that very hour in which, with God's help, he can overcome his selfhood—that is to say when he is so detached from himself that he is able to leave in the keeping of God everything of which he has need—behold, through doing this he is so well pleasing to God that God bestows upon him His grace. And, through grace, he feels true love: and love casts out doubt and fear, and fills the man with hope and trust, and thus he becomes a faithful servant, and means and loves God in all that he does. Behold, this is the difference between the faithful servant and the hireling.”
[BLESSED JAN VAN RUYSBROEK – XIII-XIV Century AD; Ruisbroek, Holy Roman Empire/ Groenendael, Holy Roman Empire; Mystic, Spiritual Writer, Doctor Divinus Ecstaticus] “Chapter VI ~ OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE HIRELINGS AND THE FAITHFUL SERVANTS OF GOD NOW you may mark this: that some men receive the gifts of God as hirelings, but others as faithful servants of God; and these differ one from another in all inward works, that is, in love and intention, in feeling and in every exercise of the inward life. Now understand this well: all those who love themselves so inordinately that they will not serve God, save for their own profit and because of their own reward, these separate themselves from God, and dwell in bondage and in their own selfhood; for they seek, and aim at, their own, in all that they do. And therefore, with all their prayers and with all their good works, they seek after temporal things, or may be strive after eternal things for their own benefit and for their own profit.…Okunengi

11.04.2026 Papst Leo XIV. verurteilt Gewalt und lädt zu Friedensgebet ein "Gott segnet keinen Konflikt" Diese Woche verurteilte Papst Leo die Vernichtungsdrohung von US-Präsident Trump gegen den Iran ungewöhnlich scharf. Die daraufhin angekündigte Waffenruhe verfolgt er nun intensiv. Nun ruft er zum weltweiten Friedensgebet auf.
Pope Leo lashed out against warmongers on Saturday while calling on billions of people around the globe to embrace peace and "believe once again in love, moderation and good politics". In one of his most passionate entreaties yet to end the raging conflict in the Middle East, the American pope said faith was needed "in order to face this dramatic hour in history together". "Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life," Pope Leo implored in an address during a prayer vigil for peace at St Peter's Basilica. Uttered in measured tones, as is customary for the soft-spoken head of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics, the comments by the 70-year-old Leo nevertheless marked some of the most pointed criticism yet of the wave of conflicts inflaming the globe. "Dear brothers and sisters, there are certainly binding responsibilities that fall to the leaders of nations. To them we cry out: Stop! It is time for peace! …Okunengi
“We are working in our own small way, with our limited manpower, to bring about an Imperfect General Council that will publicly recognise the present Catholic disaster that has no way out but through,” said Father Michael Mary, head of the Congregation of the Transalpine Redemptorists, in an interview with ThePress.co.nz on 10 April. The group was expelled from the Christchurch Diocese in New Zealand in July 2024 following allegations, primarily concerning unauthorised exorcism practices. The priests denied any wrongdoing. In October 2025, the community repudiated “false shepherds” and recent papal documents without explicitly declaring the papal office vacant. Their proposed “council” would consist of bishops acting without papal authority, though no names have been given: “There are Catholics all over the world left in ‘Catholic bunkers’ who know what is going on. It is a matter of reaching out to them.” Toward Electing a "Pope"? To justify the idea, Father Michael Mary invokes …Okunengi
