Church leaders apparently now believe it's a mortal sin to perceive and value truth and to defend it with vigor. To them the truth equals bigoted arrogance, vigor equals merciless violence, and virtue equals allowing both truth and ourselves to be trampled underfoot so the feelings of the aggressors aren't hurt.

Great as a performance space, but it's not a place that focuses on God.
Secretary General of Peruvian Bishops Accused of Homosexual Abuse - Denies Any Wrongdoing
So deathly sick of clerics--from a lowliest priest to the pope--going blind and dumb whenever a friend or even an minor acquaintance is obviously lying to your face.
Early Christian Communion in the Hand
There's a difference between receiving communion in the hand at a table, where you immediately consume it and remain sitting, so you can also immediately pray and reflect. Being given a host and then having to turn and run back to your pew makes any reverent response to what's just been given you hard at best, impossible for most.
Widespread Rise in Catholic Baptisms Across the Globe
Well, at least a higher percentage than people raised Catholic. Considering the number of hoops you have to jump through to become Catholic, I find the increase extremely impressive, even if only half don't falter.
The UK House of Lords has just legalised abortion up to birth. Women can now end the life of their …
Henious. There is absolutely no way anyone in that room could have believed the act they were leganizing was anything but the murder of the most innocent and helpless humans who exist.
Leo XIV Praises 'Amoris Laetitia' - Wants To Preserve on This Path
We have a Liberation-Theology-indoctrinated cute & nice guy as pope, so he's much more dangerous than Francis, who was so nasty only his fellow travelers could stand to listen to him. I'm beginning to fear that he might just succeed in finishing off the Church as God intended it to be and succeed in replacing it with a "church" based on man's basest desires and dumbest delusions. Even those who I thought had the grit to never be taken in by (or acquiesce to) his dismantling of the Church seem to now be genuflecting before him. Definitely feeling more and more hopeless.

Even if the German church manages to save its drowning self, it will be just about as significant as if some old Roman cult were being saved.
Leo XIV "Cannot Comment" on Jimmy Lai’s Imprisonment
The Vatican's agreement with China probably has a non-disparagement clause.
Vatican Seeks to Reconnect to the Internet - via Commissions and Study Groups
One who doesn't have a lot of depth, I would imagine.
Pro-Homosexual Bishop, Enemy of Latin Mass, Closes 70 Churches in the Netherands
Churches have become so far apart that, more and more, only those who can afford a car (or a round-trip Uber) can attend Mass. That leaves out most of the old, disabled, and just plain poor. Of course, one benefit of that is the attendance numbers decline more and the closure of more churches can be justified. It's "Let them eat cake" instead of the Bread of Life for them (they only put a widow's pence in the collection basket, anyway).
Una Voce Blames FSSPX of "Throwing a Hand Grenade" in Roman Rite Negotiations
Leo has a quiet charm and a distinct talent for using it to keep people distracted while he does the most outrageous things only inches away. At least with Francis it was always obvious what he was up to.
Leo XIV Appoints Bishop in South Africa — Presents Himself in Traditional Animal-Skin Attire
I think he might be a tad dyslexic and reading "the first will be last" as "the worst are the best".
Beatification Process for Bishop who Allowed Indigenious Youths to Touch his Private Parts
Judging from the de facto Vatican party line over the last 15 years, it's OK to do or believe whatever you please, as long as you've spent the better part of your life in South America. Liberation Theology at its poisonous best.

In India, it's illegal for Christians to proselytize. She would have wound up first dealing with riots outside the cloister door, then arrest, then a trial, then either prison or deportation.
Cardinal David: "We Oversexualise Sin"
Hey, let's each of us just make up our own individual religion, like this arrogant guy does! Great fun, and since it's what I want and like, it's surely God's will to boot.
