On Monday, Raymond Arroyo, Rev Gerald Murray and Robert Royal spoke about Pope Leo XIV’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, on artificial intelligence. Best quotes. On the encyclical's lack of Catholic identity "There's no sense in this entire document of what the main mission of the Church is... How is that a Church document?" — Robert Royal "Sin essentially doesn't exist in the universe of Magnifica Humanitas." — Robert Royal, "The Church is here to accompany humanity — that's a very weak description. We're not simply a walking companion and conversation buddy." — Rev Murray On international regulation “If we need effective on national and international levels regulation of AI, in theory, yes, but what kind of regulations and who's putting them in?” – Rev. Murray. “Are these going to be voted by the people or is this going to be imposed by technical committees?” – Rev Murray. On the continuity between Leo XIV and Francis The whole document makes constant reference to Pope …Makîria
Tue May 26, 2026 - 5:04 pm EDT OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) — A petition with the signatures of over 42,000 Canadians demanding a stop to the Liberals’ “dystopian” Bill C-22 before the House, which would give police extra powers to monitor and search Canadians’ online digital activity without a warrant, has been delivered to federal authorities. The petition was spearheaded by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), which said in a press release sent to LifeSiteNews that 42,344 Canadians had signed it before it was delivered to Ottawa. The JCCF’s petition was formally presented to Ottawa officials by one of its board members, Dr. John Robson, who warned about the bill’s attack on privacy. “Privacy is not a luxury in a free society,” he said. “Privacy protects freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom of association, and the ability of ordinary Canadians to live without constant monitoring by the state.” The petition calls for an immediate halt to Bill C-22, known …
"We see a new generation of Catholics in Europe developing platforms and podcasts that are sometimes free and independent but linked to the Church's teachings," retired Bishop Dominique Rey, 73, of Fréjus-Toulon (2000–2025), France, told AdVaticanum.com on 23 May. He added: "It is very important to encourage these initiatives." Young People Look for Roman Rite Regarding the episcopal consecration of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, Bishop Rey was somewhat vague: "Doctrinal communion is very important. My position is to be clear with the Society about what is necessary, but also to remain in dialogue with them — not on matters of faith, but because the Church must be open to their opinions, their expressions of fraternity, and their projects." He added: "The Church must be willing to integrate traditionalists into its structures." Bishop Rey believes that a new generation of young people are looking for a sense of sacredness, spirituality and silence in the traditional liturgy …Makîria
In reality the Church is orthodox remnant. No one is integrated or disintegrated, that's political and secular mumbo jumbo, there are only faithful and heretics.
Today, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Simon Jong-Gang Kim, 61, as Coadjutor Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Daegu, South Korea. The image of him disguised in a white T-shirt is from World Youth Day in Lisbon 2023, where Bishop Kim gave official catechesis as the bishops' Youth Pastoral Commission president.

Francis appointed him Bishop of Cheongju in 2022.

He was arrested for being a journalist recording what was going on Jan. 6 and also having a lot of issues with the F.B.I. Will he decide to go back home now? I hope he gets a large chunk of it. But I have a feeling the government will play their usual games. May 26, 2026

Robert Royal on the controversial Synod Study Group 9 report that seems to support the LGBT agenda regarding the blessing of same sex relationships: "The ultimate aim is clearly to change Church teaching."
1. Leo XIV explicitly or humorously said that the single language before the tower of Babel was a lack of diversity. §10: “Let us avoid the ‘Babel syndrome’ … the uniformity that levels differences; the claim of a single — even digital — language…” 2. From the 224 footnotes, Pope Francis is cited 55 times. 3. At the press conference, Leo XIV said that the Church and the US tech company ‘Anthropic’, will walk together to "find the way for humanity." 4. The encyclical includes lots of personalist philosophy, including the erroneous idea of an “infinite” dignity of the person and “total gift of self.” 5. The first third of the document is primarily a theological and social-philosophical framework. The encyclical only becomes focused on technology and AI around §90 of the total 226 paragraphs. 6. Leo XIV's summary of past Catholic Social Teaching includes economic and political documents but ignores marriage and family. 7. Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism,... are framed as religions of …Makîria
Encyclical Magnifica Humanitas, paragraph 25 reads: “I reiterated that the Church ‘does not want to raise the banner of the possession of the truth’, because truth is not a territory to be defended, but a good to be shared.”

Today Pope Leo XIV released his encyclical letter, Magnifica Humanitas: On Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence." Some of the issues the document addresses are Artificial Intelligence, tranhumanism and human dignity in an age of materialism, social media and technology. We got an email message from a friend about the new papal encyclical and with his permission we post it. I was diving deep into Pope Leo’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas. It's all about how the Church views artificial intelligence and the digital age, and I thought you might find it interesting. The original document is a bit long, so I made a quick breakdown of what it covers for you to read quickly if you're interested: Big Tech The Pope first points out that unlike older industrial shifts driven by governments, AI is mostly controlled by massive private tech companies, making regulation for the common good much harder. He notes that AI is already altering decisions that shape …

Worse than Germany: On 16 May, the social media account 'SG News' published a video showing a priest celebrating the Eucharist in shallow waters in Sri Lanka. The priest is wearing violet liturgical vestments. He and altar servers stand and walk in the water while the faithful gather in fishing boats.
While wars are being made and helping others to start or participate in wars. This man is bringing joy to disabled children in Russia. Visiting Orphans and hospitals, disabled Vets and the elderly. He is all over Russia deeply involved with everyone in Russia that he can be. This young man had a wish come true when President Putin chose a card with his wish on it. He was invited to the Kremlin to have tea and cookies along with his brother and father. Then he was taken up into a helicopter with his brother, I believe over St. Petersburg Fulfilling his wish. That was back in 2017. He has a rare bone disease which I forgot the name of. He is now a young man. Late teens early 20's.
Can you imagine if we could have a President Like Putin? Who actually loves and cares for his people. The things I see, the places he goes to just to meet and talk to children and citizens is unreal. I seriously don't understand how he does it. Even if he doesn't take a vacation every month like most. I can't imagine how he does all he does. I guess it's for his deep love for his people and country that pushes him.
While some presidents constantly take vacations and every Sunday take the day off to golf and relax. President Putin took one vacation camping in Siberia! No fancy hotels with large comfortable beds. Just a small cabin and a cot. No waiters or servants serving him. And no fancy restaurants. He went fishing and cooked his own catch. Picked and ate wild mushrooms and collected rare herbs. and went hiking. That is what he called a vacation! Ask anyone in Russia and they will tell you. He doesn't take vacations (except the one I posted) and even works on his birthday. Putin on vacation in Siberia
The famous Chartres Pilgrimage in France is deeply tied to the Traditional Latin Mass movement, and the priests who lead it are primarily from traditionalist Catholic communities. Because of historical divisions, the event is split into two entirely separate pilgrimages with different organizers and priests: 1. The "Pilgrimage of Christendom" (Paris to Chartres) The Priests: The chaplaincy and spiritual direction are primarily provided by priests from the FSSP (Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter) and other diocesan priests loyal to Rome. 2. The "Pilgrimage of Tradition" (Chartres to Paris) The Priests: This route is organized directly by and accompanied by priests from the SSPX (Society of St. Pius X).
On the surface it appears to be kosher, having everyone kneel is most reverent. Perhaps a most correct method to receive Holy Communion would be via "Ocular Communion": Instead of consuming the Eucharist, medieval pilgrims and local parishioners practiced "ocular communion". The emotional, spiritual climax of the Mass was not eating the bread, but gazing upon the host when the priest elevated it. Many believed that simply looking upon the Body of Christ was enough to secure grace and divine protection.
