Tucho’s new document contradicts John Paul II. Today, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, headed by the soft-porn author and Cardinal Víctor “Tucho” Fernández, has published Venite ad Me (“Come to Me”), a document on transmitting the Catholic faith. He disclaims “terminological precision and systematic treatment,” instead adopting a more discursive approach. Tucho creates a contrast between faith and its doctrinal formulations. Paragraph 29 of the document states: “The faith is not transmitted primarily as a body of doctrinal content or religious information, but as a form of ecclesial life into which the believer is gradually introduced.” Tucho’s document uses a “not primarily X, but Y” construction, whereas John Paul II explicitly warns against opposing doctrinal instruction and Christian life. In his 1979 apostolic exhortation 'Catechesi Tradendae', the pope wrote that "no opposition is to be set up between a catechesis taking life as its point of departure and a …Ossotina
The Church knew in the 1950s that Abbé Pierre was a “seriously sick man”. For decades, Abbé Pierre was revered as France's champion of the poor. But behind his public image as a celebrated humanitarian, Church leaders knew of serious psychiatric problems and allegations of sexual abuse. Historians Axelle Brodiez-Dolino and Bruno Dumons examined Church archives for a new book. In an interview with La Croix (October 17), Brodiez-Dolino discussed their findings. She states that Abbé Pierre was bipolar, while stressing that this does not explain his sexual misconduct. His childhood was marked by unwanted sexual touching by older boys, attraction to boys during adolescence, and a family scandal involving his aunt’s conviction for murdering her husband. In 1955, reports of sexual touching of women during a US visit reached Rome. The Vatican investigated Abbé Pierre over sexual misconduct and also financial irregularities, but imposed only mild sanctions in 1957. Brodiez-Dolino concludes from …Ossotina

Worse than Germany: Irish Synod pushes female 'ordination'. Twenty-three bishops, including presiding Archbishop Eamon Martin of Armagh, attended the Irish Synod on Saturday. The majority favoured the ordination of women to the diaconate. The Synod didn't vote on using chocolate instead of hosts at the Novus Ordo. More than 300 handpicked delegates gathered in Gormanston, County Meath, to vote on 35 proposals concerning the future of the Church in Ireland. Regarding women's ministry, including "ordination" to the diaconate, 54% supported further exploration. A further 19% called for further consideration, while 27% were opposed.

It seems very interesting. I only listened to some of it. But too long for me. I might finish it up another time. I try to get those who use it to stop. And it's hard to get away from it. It's everywhere. I will never ask any of it any question. Never get into a conversation with evil it's said.
Jewish settlers’ attacks on Palestinians are not isolated incidents, and despite condemnations by Israeli officials, the violence continues, fueled by persistent impunity for perpetrators. The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem issued a joint statement following the October 17 settler attack on the Christian village of Taybeh. They insist the attack was not an isolated incident, but part of a wider pattern of settler violence against Palestinian villages across the West Bank, escalating during the olive harvest. The Church leaders acknowledge that Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned the violence and that Israeli police made arrests. However, they warn that settler attacks continue because perpetrators enjoy impunity, raising serious concerns about the effectiveness of Israeli law enforcement. Finally, they condemn a recently published religious ruling permitting Jews to take Palestinians' olives, calling it "very worrying and dangerous, and absolutely unacceptable." The …Ossotina

Pope at Audience: We must urgently protect … “The first thing I would like to say to you is: thank you! Thank you for the support of your prayers. Thanks be to God for His generosity.

Leo XIV’s personnel decision is a “grave sin”. Thomas Mirus, editor-in-chief of the “conservative” CatholicCulture.com, commented on X on Leo XIV’s appointment of Sister Mary Barron as President of the Pontifical Mission Societies (Missio). Both before her appointment and two weeks afterward, Sister Mary advocated for the ordination of women. She told EWTN on October 20: “Women today may hear the call to priesthood. Some of the great women saints heard that call also. So for me, it’s how do we within the Church facilitate that discernment?” Mirus commented on the interview: “I believe a grave sin is being committed by anyone who appoints or allows this woman to continue holding this position, knowing her heretical views.” He added: “This is why I said a while back that you cannot be a ‘good pope’ if you allow these things to happen, no matter how many edifying spiritual things you may say in your homilies.” #newsZwgkbxvmjq
