I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is My flesh for the life of the world. (8/8/21)

Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord, August 6  
  •  The very strange case of (38 y.o.) Father Michael DeSaye (7/31/21)
  • For those who ignore the sanctity of life and marriage/ family, was it your hypocrisy that drove other Catholics away? (7/31/21)
  • Evidence: Catholic Hospital Pressures Women to Abort at Late-Term Facility that Just Botched 3 Abortions (Operation Rescue, 7/29/21)
  • "For years now, concerned Catholics have warned about the prevalence of homosexual activity among the clergy.... There is a problem here that must be addressed, and it’s not a problem of journalistic ethics" (Catholic Culture, 7/28/21).
    • "Location-based homosexual and heterosexual hookup apps are widely used within Vatican walls, an investigative report revealed late Tuesday, which can open the Holy See to blackmail and other security risks.

      " The report by the Pillar, an online Catholic news agency, raised particular concerns of vulnerability to China, which until 2020 owned the gay hookup app Grindr, one of the services whose use in the Vatican was uncovered....

      " Vatican watchers have been at a loss to explain why the Vatican and Pope Francis himself have been so recalcitrant in not calling out the egregious human rights abuses perpetrated by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and why the Holy See entered into an unfavorable agreement with the CCP in 2018 ceding some decision-making power in the naming of Catholic bishops to Beijing....

      " As Breitbart News reported in July 2020, cyber hackers tied to the Chinese government were able to successfully infiltrate the Vatican’s computer networks in the months leading up to a renegotiation of the 2018 accord on the appointment of bishops in China....

      " In June 2019, the Holy See also changed its longstanding policy of forbidding Catholic priests from joining the state-run Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association (CCPA), which was set up under the rule of Chairman Mao Zedong as a parallel church to the church in Rome.

      " Cardinal Joseph Zen, a vocal critic of the Vatican’s 2018 deal with the CCP over the appointment of bishops, said that deal was not nearly as destructive as the 'Pastoral Guidance' issued by the Vatican allowing Catholic clerics to enlist in the CCPA....

      " 'While the Vatican has reached a provisional agreement with China on the issue of episcopal appointments, reports of persecution by the Chinese government persist as underground churches are closed and their priests detained, crosses destroyed, bibles confiscated, and children under 18 forbidden from attending Mass and receiving religious instruction,' the U.S. bishops said in June 2020.

      " Beijing has come under growing international criticism for the mass imprisonment in 'reeducation camps' of more than one million Uighurs in the Xinjiang Autonomous Region, where reports of compulsory sterilization, forced abortions, torture, and ethnic cleansing have become frequent" (Thomas Williams, PhD, 7/28/21).
  • “In Church institutions — hospitals, schools, Caritas — many people participate in decisive positions who do not share the inner mission of the Church and thus in many cases obscure the witness of this institution” (Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI).
