I think one thing Catholics should understand about the SSPX–Vatican situation is that the world has changed. Long before Vatican II, Popes were already warning about secularism, liberalism, and modernism. The shift away from Christian civilization was already happening. Now, by the time Vatican II arrived, many nations that were once-Catholic - like France, Spain, Portugal, and Ireland - were already deeply secular in public life. The old "Catholic state" structure was already collapsing. Therefore I strongly believe Vatican II did not create a new world. Rather, it responded to a world that had already changed. I think this is the key point people miss. Yes, evil has no rights. That declaration remains true. But Vatican II was not saying error becomes truth or that all religions are equal. V2 was addressing a different question: in a modern state, can people be coerced in matters of religion? That question matters, because we are no longer in medieval Christendom. Therefore, when some SSPX apologists act like Vatican I–era structures can simply be restored everywhere today, they are ignoring reality. I think we should be more focused on how the Church stays faithful to her mission, doing the work of our Divine Lord, Jesus Christ, in a world that no longer looks like Christendom.

This is actually good news. We can clearly identify the faithless Bishops who want to destroy reverence for the Eucharist.

Britain is taking the big step with its social media ban for Under 16s. It’s time for our Government to show similar courage and concern for children’s welfare.

Social media has absolutely no benefits at all for kids. High time it was completely banned.

Let’s remember that Pope Francis publicly criticised EWTN on multiple occasions, famously stating in 2021 that the U.S.-based network's continuous attacks on his papacy and the Church are "the work of the devil", making today’s announcement doubly intriguing.

I'm a bit late reading the most controversial book among Catholic traditionalists, but now that I have read it, I can give my own opinion: It's marvelous and I highly recommend it. Thank you @DrKwasniewski for publishing it!

“To eliminate suffering entirely would mean, in the end, extinguishing love and desire as well. Those who love and desire cannot avoid passing through trial and suffering; and over the years, we carry within us lessons that leave their mark like scars, the memories of a journey shaped by freedom and failure, dreams and disappointments. It is only thanks to the interplay of these elements that the wonders of the soul occur within us, allowing us to sense the richness of our humanity. To renounce this adventure, both tragic and splendid, in the name of a presumed transcendence of all limits, could mean many things, but it would no longer be human.” Pope Leo XIV, Magnifica Humanitas (par. 120) (May 15, 2026)

And there is an open investigation by the Police into this group, seemingly.
Three monks secretly left the Transalpine Redemptorists’ monastery on Papa Stronsay by boat after allegedly arranging their departure with the Diocese of Aberdeen without informing superiors Read full article here: advaticanum.com/article/thre…

President of German Bishops conference. We live in a era when our Bishops can’t be bothered with their vocation to be ministers of the Body of Our Lord. No wonder there is a crisis of vocation when bishops are so lost.
This gentleman in a black coat who receives the Holy Communion from a laywoman is none other than Monsignor Heiner Wilmer, Bishop of Münster and president of the German Bishops’ Conference. Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

The Irish tech sector is in big trouble. It is the objective of tech to shed thousands of jobs. AI is an enormous threat. It is not being taken seriously. It's like nuclear power in terms of potential effects. It needs to be regulated at a UN level. rte.ie/news/business/2026/05…

I’ve yet to meet a single Catholic who was enthusiastic about the synodal nonsense. $400 million dollar multi year project that is going nowhere
NEW: The Synod office issues new document to guide “path of implementation of the Synod on Synodality” in lead up to 2028 Vatican Synodal Assembly 4 stages identified with local, national, continental church bodies to compose new synodal reports at every stage, in build up to Oct 2028 Assembly. All work to be guided by this question: “In light of the journey undertaken after the conclusion of the 2021-2024 Synod, & with a view to offering its fruits as a gift to the other Churches & to the Holy Father: what concrete form of a missionary synodal Church & what new paths of synodality are emerging in your community?”
