🚨 NEW AT HIRAETH!
Vatican I and Gay Blessings Negotiable for the Schismatic Orthodox; Meanwhile SSPX Must Accept Vatican II or be Declared Schismatic
Leo XIV reassures Alexandria that same-sex couples will not be blessed, while Fiducia stays on the books, Tucho attacks Benedict, and Rome treats Tradition as the only unforgivable sin.

@MatthewJLB @Mwarning515 I have no use for the use of the word Ghost, which is based on the German* Geist. Better is Spirit, cognate of Spiritus. Btw, Holy Ghost come from the King James Bible, an Anglican project.
English
@Mwarning515 So, in this Pentecost Octave, are you denying the power of the Holy Ghost to lead people to the Truth, Who is Christ Himself?

Shaw is being pompous and disingenuous here.
He says nobody is “forcing” the SSPX to travel to Paris instead of Chartes for pilgrimage. Except that I take it SSPX clergy are not allowed to say masses at Chartres?
So instead of SSPX laity walking with their own priests, Shaw says they can just abandon them and walk with stranger priests in the other direction and assist at their Masses instead?
OR the Society could just cave, accept the Bergoglian Revolution, and sign on the dotted line with Tucho and go to Chartres.
Therefore, Shaw concludes nobody is FORCING them to walk to Paris in the opposite direction so they can say Mass in their own church.
What utter arrogance and complete and total lack of compassion for fellow Traditional Catholics. On top of the disingenuous nature of saying they are not forced to go to Paris.

@RNS I haven't yet read the Encyclical, so I don't know how true are the above comments. I do know, however, that the 2000 Baptisms done by St Francis Xavier are considered an indication of his sanctity. Ditto the writings of St Augustine, St Thomas, and the Doctors of the Church.
English
OPINION: (RNS) — Leo’s answer is clear: A person’s dignity does not depend on what they can ‘achieve or produce.’ religionnews.com/2026/05/25/in-…
English
It’s humor. He loves to surround himself with the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet. But he knows he is a narcissist and he knows it’s cliche for narcissists to enjoy being the most successful person in a room so he is playing around about himself. He is a pathological liar, even pathologically criminal, completely unfit for office, in a dozen ways, but he’s not the devil. He is a great entertainer, and often times sincerely funny, if you can just ignore for a moment that he’s doing it all from the White House.
English
There's a lot one could say about this, but I can't get past the fact that he's channeling an old Morrissey tune: youtu.be/l6g0gDrCUi8?si…

Trump: "I hate having lunch with somebody that's really, really successful.”

@PapaEgoLeoni @holysmoke @MargaretPBrady @palestrina_gp China, who wants final approval, is an atheist govt. The SSPX not only is not atheist, it believes in the importance of the Roman Rite.
English
@DrBobus97 @holysmoke @MargaretPBrady @palestrina_gp I thought the question at hand was comparing what China does (appoint bishops) versus the unlawful actions of the SSPX which is to attempt to ordain (consecrate) a bishop.
English
That’s unfair. Pope Leo didn’t give the CCP control of the Chinese Church. The deal was imposed under Francis, engineered by Parolin on the advice of McCarrick.
Ted Joy@TedJoy71
I'd be more impressed if he'd done something comparable in China where he has essentially given the Chinese Communist Party control of the Church there.

@FeserEdward Rubio is simply wrong. The power to declare war lies with the Congress, the power to prosecute war with the President. what lies between the two is raising an army. But the President inherited an army already raised.
English
Word on the street is that the administration will argue that the president’s unlimited war powers follow from the Constitution by “emanations,” “penumbras,” and his “right to define [his] own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life”
Really American 🇺🇸@ReallyAmerican1
Former US Senator and sitting Secretary of State Marco Rubio shockingly says it is unconstitutional for Congress to check Trump’s power to declare war, despite the Constitution giving Congress that role.
English
@PapaEgoLeoni @wapella @palestrina_gp @holysmoke Do you know the way he's trying? He inherited Francis' chaos. He's just trying to deal with it. And it is irrelevant whether
Rome pulls out because the CCP now has the power.
English
@wapella @DrBobus97 @palestrina_gp @holysmoke I hope Leo is successful too. He is just trying a way that is different than you would pick.
English
@PapaEgoLeoni @wapella @palestrina_gp @holysmoke Are you saying the Church under Benedict was trying to get an agreement with the CCP that persecutes Catholics?
English
@wapella @DrBobus97 @palestrina_gp @holysmoke Again, more Catholic than the pope. Maybe, you should run for the office by crashing the next conclave.
This all started under Benedict.
English
@PapaEgoLeoni @wapella @palestrina_gp @holysmoke If the government negatively influences the people, the obvious answer is underground.
English
@wapella @DrBobus97 @palestrina_gp @holysmoke For the salvation of Chinese souls, is it better to have underground Church only or an open Church that did not oppose the government?
Again a concordats exist in France (Strasbourg/Metz), parts of Germany, and some Eastern European countries.
English
@PapaEgoLeoni @palestrina_gp @holysmoke A government might have input but none is given final approval
English
@DrBobus97 @palestrina_gp @holysmoke In some cases, there is an agreement the government also provides approval. This is not simply China.
English
@StMichael71 The SSPX acknowledge stheir bishops have no jurisdiction, which is the basis for a hierarchy. Acc to canon law there are two episcopal munera. The first is the potestas ordinis ordaining priests), the second is potestas iurisdictionis (they can be given iurisdictionis.

@RainbowOfLove24 @holysmoke Lack of Sacramental Form, not Intention. Not done in the name of the Trinity.
English
@holysmoke Hence for example why an LDS baptism is regarded as invalid by the Church for lack of intention.

The rector is making the point that Mormons are not Christians. He’s absolutely right. They are polytheists.

@BreeSolstad For someone at the foot of the cross watching Christ suffer, would playing bongos have been appropriate?

@BreeSolstad Why do all extra terrestrial aliens look like lizards? And why are they all smarter than earthlings? Why in sci fi movies have those who encountered aliens on a long trip in outer space never said they met aliens who were dumb SOBs?

They think you are stupid.
Don’t be stupid.

@pluant In the Novus Ordo the celebrant is commonly referred to as a presider. This is also found in Vatican documents.
English
Lefebvre was a true pastor and master missionary.
He was also very French (in the best and worst of ways), and he had a mutually antagonistic relationship with Paul VI.
I pray for an irenic solution to the current impasse.
Joe McBride@McBrideLawNYC
Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre argues that the modern priest is formed to preside over the people rather than offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. I attend both the TLM and the Novus Ordo. There are two kinds of priests. Traditionalist priests in both Rites who direct parishioners to the Sacraments above all else. And those who preach psychology first. I prefer the traditional priest. Was Lefebvre right?
English
@sola_chad In Greek God is the Rock (petra); Peter (petros) is a piece of the rock (a stone). Combining the two, St Augustine says that the rock is Peter's Confession that Jesus is the Christ, Son of the Living God.
English
Peter is not the Rock, Jesus is.
Mary is not the mediator, Jesus is.
The Pope is not the head of the church, Jesus is.
The Catholic Church is not the way to heaven, Jesus is.

It’s a real shame that two US Catholic Bishops are speaking at this White Christian Nationalist event.

@FeserEdward The job of any commander is to win the battle with minimum casualties among his men. That does not mean maximizing the enemy's casualties.

Seeing a lot of this “anything goes in war” tribalistic bloodlust on this Hieronymus Bosch hellscape of a website. Note that these two charming fellows are writers and not just your ordinary Twitter randos.
