Guess what post he’s replying to 🫠

Lo Stato di New York vuole imporre alle suore domenicane l'uso dei pronomi gender e stanze per identità di genere. Se non accettano, rischiano il carcere.  A rischio un istituto che da 125 anni cura poveri, senzatetto e soprattutto malati terminali. Questo è il vero volto dell'ideologia LGBT👇 provitaefamiglia.it/blog//new-york…

@PaxAeterna Thank you so much. This is incredibly informative and helpful!

Here are some solid recommendations for Catholic Italian priests (or Italian-based friars/priests actively involved in Catholic ministry) worth following on X. I focused on those who are authentically Italian, rooted in the faith, and share spiritual content, reflections, or Church-related insights. • @FriarMario (Friar Mario Conte) A Franciscan friar based in Padua, Italy, at the Basilica of Saint Anthony. He directs the international Catholic magazine Messenger of Saint Anthony and posts faith-filled content, reflections, and updates from the shrine. Very popular and consistently Catholic. • @antoniospadaro (Fr. Antonio Spadaro, SJ) Italian Jesuit priest, former longtime director of La Civiltà Cattolica (a historic Vatican-approved journal), and now a high-level Vatican official (Undersecretary at the Dicastery for Culture and Education). He shares thoughtful posts on theology, culture, and Church life. One of the early Italian priests active on the platform. • @paracleto4 An Italian account focused on deep Catholic spirituality, often drawing from saints like St. John of the Cross. It posts beautiful reflections, prayers, and quotes in Italian that many find edifying. Also worth considering for broader Italian Catholic content: • @EwtnItalia — The Italian branch of EWTN, which frequently features Italian priests, Vatican news, and solid Catholic programming. • The official Italian papal account @Pontifex_it for messages from the Holy Father in Italian. Note that some prominent younger Italian “influencer priests” (like Fr. Alberto Ravagnani) have stepped away from active priesthood in recent years, so I avoided recommending those. Always discern content prayerfully—X can be noisy, even in Catholic circles. If you’re looking for more traditional-leaning voices, daily homilies, or specific charisms (e.g., Franciscan, Jesuit, diocesan), let me know for more tailored suggestions. Buona ricerca e che il Signore ti benedica! 🙏

If anyone can recommend some Italian priests to follow on X, that would be greatly appreciated. Se qualcuno potesse reccomandare dei preti italiani per seguire su X, sarebbe molto grato.

@ilgoffo Thank you. I’ll add them to my list.

@ItaCathAes most beautiful churches in Italy are 1. San Vitale, Ravenna (and other roman curches in town) 2. Capella Palatina Palermo (and the other norman/greek churches in Sicily)

Per sua natura, un solerte propagandista di regime non può impartire lezioni né di coerenza né di libertà. Ma non saranno certo queste caricature a farci cambiare strada. Noi, diversamente da altri, non abbiamo fili, non abbiamo padroni e non prendiamo ordini. La nostra bussola resta una sola: l’interesse dell’Italia. E continueremo a seguirla con orgoglio, con buona pace dei propagandisti di ogni latitudine.

@igboPappist @CanCathAes DM me then.

@ItaCathAes I messaged @CanCathAes, he hasn't responded yet though.

I really want to do Nigerian Catholic Aesthetic. 🙃🙃😭😭🥹🥹
