“JUST ONCE” CAN BECOME A PRISON: A POWERFUL WARNING TO YOUNG PEOPLE | SG News Actor, filmmaker and Catholic activist Eduardo Verástegui is drawing attention with a strong message urging young people not to experiment with drugs. His warning focuses on a decision that can initially appear harmless: trying a substance “just once.” Verástegui argues that experimentation can gradually develop into repeated use and, for some people, dependence and addiction — affecting physical health, mental wellbeing, relationships, family life and a person’s future. Modern addiction science supports the seriousness of that concern. According to the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse, repeated drug use can alter brain systems involved in reward, stress and self-control. Over time, those changes can contribute to compulsive drug use even when a person understands that the behavior is causing harm. Addiction, however, should not simply be dismissed as a lack of character or willpower. Medical experts …More
„NUR EINMAL“ KANN ZUM GEFÄNGNIS WERDEN: EINE EINDRINGLICHE WARNUNG AN JUNGE MENSCHEN | SG News Der Schauspieler, Filmemacher und katholische Aktivist Eduardo Verástegui macht mit einer eindringlichen Botschaft auf sich aufmerksam und appelliert an junge Menschen, nicht mit Drogen zu experimentieren. Seine Warnung konzentriert sich auf eine Entscheidung, die zunächst harmlos erscheinen mag: eine Substanz „nur einmal“ auszuprobieren. Verástegui argumentiert, dass Experimentieren allmählich zu wiederholtem Konsum und bei manchen Menschen zu Abhängigkeit und Sucht führen kann – mit negativen Auswirkungen auf die körperliche Gesundheit, das psychische Wohlbefinden, Beziehungen, das Familienleben und die Zukunft. Die moderne Suchtforschung bestätigt die Ernsthaftigkeit dieser Befürchtung. Laut dem US-amerikanischen National Institute on Drug Abuse kann wiederholter Drogenkonsum die Gehirnsysteme verändern, die für Belohnung, Stress und Selbstkontrolle zuständig sind. Mit der Zeit können diese …More
Stephen Kokx: From Integrity to Conspiracy I helped him when he was down, warned him about his editor, and walked away. Months later I became the “chaos agent” in a story he admits he cannot prove. “…Integrity can still decide what it wants to be. It can become a serious Catholic publication willing to examine modern errors while remaining governed by evidence, charity and the hierarchy of Catholic truths. Or it can become a bunker in which race, Jews, hidden power, political fatalism and factional loyalty increasingly determine who counts as a real traditional Catholic. Kokx has begun describing the latter course as the future. I think it is a dead end…” “I do not need Stephen Kokx’s permission to criticize Leo. I do not need Integrity’s permission to defend the SSPX. I do not need American Reform’s racial framework to reject Vatican II. I do not need “the Jewish question” to explain the crisis in the Church. I do not need a wealthy backer to tell me which stories matter. And I certainly …More
The Spiritual Battle for True Womanhood Fr. Altier emphasizes women's inherent value and strength, particularly mothers, highlighting their unique role in creation as the closest beings to God because of their capacity for love. He expresses concern about societal attitudes towards women, particularly in light of a recent case where a woman killed her children, arguing that such actions are a rejection of their divine purpose and a consequence of extreme ideologies. He criticizes the notion that women should have absolute power over life and death, drawing parallels to the biblical story of Adam and Eve and the temptation to be like God. He further states that the decline of society and the church is linked to the erosion of women’s morality, which is seen as the foundation of both. Satan has deceived women into rejecting their true nature and embracing a masculine ideal, leading to societal imbalance and anger. Women are urged to embrace their femininity, reject Satan’s lies, and live …More

Spaghetti and meatballs isn’t an Italian dish But Naples, we have something better: “The cuzzitiello”! It didn’t start as street food It was a habit at home, almost always on Sunday morning, while mum or nonna made the ragù, the hungriest person in the family would take the still-warm “pane cafone”, pull out the crumb, and fill that crust with sauce and meatballs That heel of bread became a bowl Today, it is one of the classics of Neapolitan street food
In the past it was food for poor families (yes, no more expensive attractions like cheese or meat). But today , at the current price of bread, it ceased to be such. ETS and other EU communist regulations are forcing people to rethink their traditional cuisines. Also the diet for fast periods. For example, fish was the most popular component of the Catholic fast in Europe. But, now euro-communism made fish luxury product. It is visible e.g. in Poland when it comes to the Christmas Eve fast dish - carp. Carp was one of the cheapest fish/meal in socialist Poland. But now, the prices - especially if you want to buy local carp not imported one, are comparable with... venison. Thus, carp, becoming quite luxurious, lost all its sense as the dish for the fast. On the other hand, the sellers still think that nevertheless people still buy the product due to the sentiment from the childhood or whatever. The similar process is happening with other species of the fish, even simple herrings, popular …More

FRANCISCAN MARTYRS OF GEORGIA, US The title refers to five Friars Minor—Pedro de Corpa, Blas Rodríguez, Miguel de Añon, Antonio de Badajóz, and Francisco de Veráscola—who were slain in 1597 in the territory of the present-day Diocese of Savannah. Though the territory was then called La Florida, to distinguish these missionaries from others martyred in territory that is now part of the state of Florida, the term "of Georgia" is used to identify them. These five Spanish missionaries—four priests and one lay brother—were laboring in the region then known as Guale. The event that occasioned their slaying was the polygamous infidelity of Juanillo, the son of a Guale cacique. A baptized Christian sacramentally married, Juanillo had openly taken a second wife. Called to task by the missionary in Tolomato, the headstrong young man took offense at the correction. Fearing that he would be impeded in succeeding to the position of cacique of the tribe, he organized a revolt against the authority of …More

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 3,13-17. Jesus said to Nicodemus : "No one has gone up to heaven except the one who has come down from heaven, the Son of Man. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life." For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

Belle fête du Saint Nom de Marie ! 12 septembre : Mémoire du Saint Nom de MARIE (Sanctissimi Nominis Mariæ) Ce Nom vénérable était déjà honoré depuis longtemps par un culte spécial dans quelques parties du monde chrétien, lorsqu’une insigne victoire* fut remportée à Vienne en Autriche, par le secours de la Sainte Vierge Marie, sur le cruel sultan des Turcs, qui menaçait avec insulte de soumettre les peuples chrétiens à sa tyrannie mahométane. Après une fête accordée en 1683 par Sa Sainteté le Pape Innocent XI en action de grâce, Sa Sainteté le Pape Innocent XIII voulu perpétuer la mémoire d’un tel bienfait en ordonnant que cette fête soit célébrée chaque année dans l’Église universelle en 1721. Le Pape Saint Pie X fixa la fête au 12 septembre lors de la réforme du Bréviaire romain. Il était bien juste que le nom de Marie trouvât sa place, dans nos fêtes catholiques, à côté du nom de Jésus ; le nom de Marie est un nom glorieux, un nom tout aimable, un nom salutaire.
