Leo XIV sent a video message to those gathered at DePaul University in the U.S. to mark the 15th anniversary of the abolition of the death penalty in the State of Illinois. He stressed that the Church continues to affirm “that the dignity of the person is not lost even after very serious crimes are committed.” In The City of God, Augustine of Hippo argues that legitimate public authority acting under just law may order death.

Win in one of Africa's biggest legal cases: Kenya’s Court of Appeal on Friday ruled that abortion is not a constitutional right, overturning a 2022 High Court decision that had expanded access. The judges found now that abortion violates the child's right to life.

Ken Klippenstein writes on April 24 the truism that the U.S. has long maintained extensive intelligence and security monitoring of the Vatican. The used agencies are the CIA, NSA, FBI, and State Department. - The CIA is represented in the U.S. Embassy to the Vatican and the Agency has been penetrating the Vatican government and diplomatic corps for years. It has human spies working inside the Holy See bureaucracy. - The NSA intercepts Vatican communications, emails, and texts, working independently and through a joint NSA/CIA “Special Collection Service.” - The FBI investigates crimes committed against and by the Vatican. It also regularly provides threat intelligence to the Pope during his travels. FBI documents show that the first Trump administration sought to beef up its coordination with Italian intelligence agencies and Vatican officials on things like cyber security, white collar crime, human trafficking, art theft and other issues. - The State Department closely follows the ins …Bivule

Stop Using the Pope as Your Political Shield: Catholic Social Teachings is Not Your Ideological Playground This post is about an activist student from the Pontifical and Royal University of Santo Tomas in the Philippines. She has been arguing certain issues involving the Armed Forces of the Philippines, and then, all of a sudden, she mentioned Pope Francis to support her political views. “Babangon sa hukay si Pope Francis sa mga ginagawa niyo!” Stop dragging the Pope’s name into everything like he’s some kind of political mascot for whatever narrative you’re trying to push. This issue? It’s not about him at all. You don’t get to name-drop the Pope just to give your argument fake moral weight. That’s not how the Church works. Second, let’s get something very clear because a lot of people seem confused or just straight-up ignoring it. The Catholic Church explicitly condemns communism. Not “kind of,” not “depending on the vibe,” but clearly and repeatedly. Look at Pius XI, Pius XII …Bivule
2 Peter 2:21-22 It would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, having known it, to turn back and abandon the holy commandment that was handed on to them. What happened to them manifests the truth of the proverbs: “The dog returns to its own vomit,” and “The washed sow returns to wallowing in the mud.”

In June, the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X will announce the names of the future bishops to be consecrated on 1 July in Ecône, Switzerland. Father Kevin M. Cusick published this rumour on the Rorate-Caeli blog, referring to an anonymous 'reliable source' who claimed that both Don Davide Pagliarani, the Fraternity's Superior General, and Father John Fullerton, the Fraternity's Superior for the US, had confirmed the information.

Tucker Carlson Says He Is ‘Tormented’ by His Past Support for Trump “I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people,” said the conservative commentator, who has broken sharply with the president over the war with Iran. nytimes.com/…4/21/us/politics/tucker-carlson-trum… Tucker Carlson, who was often at Donald J. Trump’s side during the 2024 presidential campaign, is now expressing remorse for that support, saying he will long be “tormented” by his role helping Mr. Trump return to the White House. Mr. Carlson, a titan of conservative media who has broken sharply with Mr. Trump over the war with Iran, acknowledged that he was part of the “reason this is happening right now,” referring to the conflict. “It’s not enough to say, well, I changed my mind — or like, oh, this is bad, I’m out,” Mr. Carlson said in an episode of his podcast released Monday. “It’s a moment to wrestle with our own consciences,” Mr. Carlson said on the podcast, speaking with his brother, Buckley, a former …Bivule
The recent death of Paul Ehrlich (1932–2026), that master of anti-natalist propaganda, should cause us to consider the far-reaching consequences of his doctrine. As the author of The Population Bomb, (Note: all page references given below refer to this work) written in 1968, Ehrlich helped shape the disastrous demographic policies which many countries around the world are currently scrambling to reverse. by Kathy Clubb Among his predictions was the frightening spectre of overpopulation and world-wide famine to be experienced in the 1970s. By tying food availability to increasing population, Ehrlich successfully sowed enough fear into the academics of his day to ensure that his message would be taken up and disseminated into the unsuspecting community at large. Contraception Central to Ehrlich’s policies for population control was contraception; this was to be subsidised by the government and especially was to be made available to the poor. He lauded the U.S. government’s multi-million …

Astronomers will now be able to operate the telescope remotely, without the need to be physically present on the mountain. In fact, astronomers from the …Bivule
Vatican Blocks Continuity of Procedure of Beatification and Canonization of Argentine Bishop -- no new Satanellis The Church has prohibited public veneration of non-canonized persons; Bergoglio, for instance, raised recognized Marxists and apostates to the altars—an act that constitutes the sin of idolatry. Bergoglio adulterated the concept of Martyrdom to include murders for political reasons. Even the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, in its Profession of Faith under Pope John Paul II, affirmed that the canonizations of saints were dogmatic facts. Since it has been established that Bergoglio signed fraudulent canonization processes, we conclude that he was not the Pope. For the Magisterium—both ordinary and extraordinary—of a Pope is infallible when it teaches on matters of faith and morals. Prevost mocks Sainthood But under Prevost, not only are apostate pagan priests elevated to the altars—following Bergoglio’s heretical parameters—but half-truths also continue to be …Bivule
