Father Michael Pfleger has returned to ministry at Chicago’s St Sabina Parish after the Independent Review Board concluded there was no reason to believe he was guilty of the latest allegation against him
[St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori – XVII-XVIII Century AD; born: Marianella, Kingdom of Naples/died: Pagani. Kingdom of Naples; spiritual writer, composer, musician, artist, poet, lawyer, theologian; Bishop; Doctor of the Church] Chapter XXII ~ FIVE RELIGIOUS BURNT ALIVE AT OMURA LEO MISAQUI AND HIS THREE SONS, IN BUNCO. ON August 25, 1624, there were taken from the prisons of Omura, to be delivered up to the flames, five religious; namely, a Dominican, Father Peter Vasquez; three Franciscans, Fathers Louis Sotelo and Louis Sassandra, and Brother Louis, a Japanese received into the Third Order; a Jesuit, Father Michael Carvailho. They were but lightly fastened to the stakes, so that when finding themselves unbound they could easily escape and declare themselves apostates, or they might at least serve to amuse the people by remaining voluntarily in the fire. The first one burnt was Brother Louis, who seeing himself loosened from his cords, passed through the flames, cast himself at the feet …Күберәк
"While he was yet speaking, the son of the governor arrived, and said that he wished to try the temper of his arms upon the bodies of the martyrs. This was the reason why they were executed in so unusual a manner. Their heads were not merely cut off, but each by a blow of the sabre had his head taken off together with the left shoulder. Leo was in his sixty-first year, Andrew was twenty-five, Thomas twenty-three, and John twenty."
Today, Leo XIV has appointed Patrick Kelly, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus, as a member of the Dicastery for the Laity, Family, and Life.

Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh NOW: House Republicans are pushing to pass massive new legislation that BANS ANY future president from opening our borders to invasion of illegal aliens NO-BRAINER and NO EXCUSES!

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. …Күберәк
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.
A fake priest in Kenya managed to concelebrate the Eucharist alongside Bishop John Mbinda of Lodwar before being exposed. Jones Bogonko Onchonga used forged documents to pose as a Catholic priest and “celebrate” Eucharists in several churches. Suspicions arose during a Eucharist on August 9, when Catholics noticed irregularities in his celebration: he appeared tense and left the altar during the service. A photo was shared among local clergy, prompting questions about his liturgical identity. The Diocese of Lodwar later confirmed that he was not an ordained priest, but a married layman and father of two. He now faces criminal charges over the alleged impersonation and use of false documents. According to Fides, police said Onchonga confessed to having impersonated a priest for almost two years. #newsYtokmgfddk
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 …Күберәк

The concept of an Earth rotating ball moving at supersonic speed in several directions simultaneously in infinite space, born from the Big Bang and inhabited by beings that emerged from the evolutionary process creating life from inorganic matter, is false. It is, literally, science fiction. In fact, it is simply an occult and Luciferian mythology conceived to discredit the word of God, which in Sacred Scripture has made it clear that the Earth is a stationary plane, the only world He created, below His heavenly habitat, and above hell and the great abyss. Biblical cosmology leaves no room for doubt on this matter, categorically refuting the heliocentric deception and exposing the spiritual manipulation that NASA exerts over humanity. - Biblical Cosmology: The Earth Is a Stationary …
Yes, the globe is scientific. Deception is strong in our times, let's not make it worst. Pick your favorite travel website, like Travelocity. Create two flight plans circumnavigating the earth. One above the equator and the other below the equator. If the earth was flat, the flight below the equator should be about 3x longer "near the ice wall" than "near the flat earth center". Post your results here. We will find that they are nearly the same.
