Dijon Archbishop Celebrates Funeral for French Freemason — Macron Delivers Speech: François Patriat — an acknowledged Freemason, Senator for Côte-d’Or and president of Macron’s RDPI group in the French Senate — received a Catholic funeral at Notre-Dame de Semur-en-Auxois. Archbishop Antoine Hérouard of Dijon presided over the funeral. President Emmanuel Macron — who has championed France’s euthanasia legislation — delivered a speech inside the church in tribute to one of his earliest and most faithful political allies: “Every time I turned around, François was there.”

Two decades ago, a weekly cultural program called Panorama Radial aired on an AM radio station in the suburbs of Buenos Aires (Radio Mi País) addressed a variety of topics of interest to Catholics, many of them related to religious and civil anniversaries. It was a rare and educational gem amidst the deluge of modern media, which has submerged a large part of the population. Some of its topics remain surprisingly relevant. Therefore, we have decided to publish them here, without a fixed date, starting with a broadcast from July 18, 2006, shortly before the publication of Summorum Pontificum, which discusses the unjust restrictions the hierarchy applies to the Tridentine Mass! It is lamentable to note that, in this regard, everything is the same or worse than it was then!
Wicked people—obstinate, malicious, and willfully blind—call an apostate who rebels against God "Pope," thereby contributing to this great diabolical deception and helping this impostor continue to murder souls.
Rev. Michael Pfleger, 77, was reinstated effective August 24 after the Archdiocese of Chicago's Independent Review Board completed its investigation. He is known nationally for his progressive activism. Cardinal Blase Cupich, 77, said the board, assisted by the Office of Child Protection and outside investigators, concluded there was “no reason to believe” Pfleger was guilty of the allegation. Cupich accepted the recommendation and returned him to ministry at St. Sabina. According to the Chicago Sun-Times reporting, a woman alleged that Pfleger sexually abused her when she was a girl attending St. Sabina's school sometime between 1993 and 1995. The allegation surfaced this July, and Pfleger was removed from ministry on July 11 while it was investigated. Rev. Pfleger denied it emphatically from the outset, calling it an “absolute lie.” Under archdiocesan policy, the allegation was reported to police, and the accuser was offered assistance through the church's Victim Assistance Ministry. …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
Has World War III Already Started? nytimes.com/…/25/opinion/has-world-war-iii-alread… Aug. 25, 2026, 4:00 p.m. ET By Bret Stephens Opinion Columnist Shortly after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, I wrote a column under the headline “This Is How World War III Begins.” More than four years on, I wonder how much I got right. My argument was based on the origins of World War II, which did not simply start with Germany’s invasion of Poland on Sept. 1, 1939. Instead, the war was an accumulation of regional wars and crises, beginning with Japan’s invasion of Manchuria in 1931, which gradually gathered into a single global conflict. That gathering, abetted by the converging ambitions of the totalitarian states and the divisions and vacillations of the democracies, led to catastrophe. Added to this was a revolution in military technology and tactics that gave the dictatorships an early advantage in offensive combat. Also an advantage: their willingness to inflict — and endure —…تېخىمۇ كۆپ
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (SSPX) has announced that it will continue its annual pilgrimage to Lourdes. Following the episcopal consecrations on July 1 in Ecône, Bishop Jean-Marc Micas of Tarbes and Lourdes withdrew permission for the SSPX to celebrate public Masses, administer sacraments, or organize public prayers at Lourdes. In an August 22 statement, Fr. Gonzague Peignot, superior of the FSSPX in France, announced that the Fraternity intends to continue coming to Lourdes every year, “Our Lady does not deserve to be abandoned despite the obstacles,” he said. The FSSPX expressed 'sorrow and incomprehension', questioning the bishop's decision and pointing to the interreligious Christian-Muslim pilgrimage that was welcomed at the sanctuary in October 2025. For now, the FSSPX faithful intend to remain present at Lourdes, but their pilgrimage will no longer be able to take the same public form as in previous years. #newsPjxbelhyed

Cordileone: “Powerful Forces in the West” Are Forcing Their Culture on Africa: Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone warned that Western society has lost its understanding of family. He spoke during the August 22 ordination of 14 priests in Makurdi, Nigeria. “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife,” Cordileone said. He described Western society as increasingly lifeless and self-centered: “Even more serious are the powerful forces in the West that are forcing this on the rest of the world, especially here in Africa,” he said. “Thank you for resisting. I know the pressure is great, especially for national leaders on this continent.”
Archbishop Cordileone in Nigeria: “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife.” “As a consequence, our Western society has become lifeless and colorless with the decreasing capacity for relationship.” “Even friendship, the love of Philios, let alone Agape, has become self-centered.”
Demonic and egocentric: Prevost (powerful forces) mercilessly forces the unsuspecting mortal sinners Fiducia Supplicans (promotion of same-sex partnership) and Amoris Laetitia (promotion of cohabitation and sacrilegious communion) upon them, which lead to hell.
Bishop Guido Gallese, 64, of Alessandria, Piedmont, is reportedly set to be removed from his diocese. LoSpiffero.com wrote on August 23 that the Apostolic Nuncio to Italy, Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, has been handling negotiations over Gallese’s exit following an Apostolic Visitation conducted by Cardinal Giuseppe Bertello earlier this year. Bishop Gallese, who is described as reluctant to leave, had sought a transfer to another diocese, but the proposal was rejected. Archbishop Peña Parra, who previously served as the Substitute for General Affairs in the Vatican Secretariat of State, offered the bishop several possible “ways out.” The solution now under discussion would see Bishop Gallese become ecclesiastical assistant to the Collegamento Nazionale Santuari, Italy’s national network of Catholic shrines. Ansa.it reported that the Apostolic Visitation focused on the administration and finances of the diocese amid controversy over the bishop’s lifestyle. Considerable media attention …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
