Today, Leo XIV blessed and inaugurated the Tower of Jesus Christ at the Basilica of the Sagrada Família on the 100th anniversary of Antoni Gaudí's death. Rising 172.5 metres above Barcelona, the tower makes the Sagrada Família the tallest church in the world and the tallest building in the city - a historic milestone in Gaudí's vision after 144 years of construction.

Worse than Germany: On 3 June, as part of the events surrounding the homosexual march of Turin, the "Catholic" homosex group La Tenda di Gionata supported a discussion on polyamory. In September 2025, Leo XIV permitted this group a march into St Peter's basilica. The recent event in Turin featured the decadent films 'The Sex of Angels' by Xavier Villaverde and 'Polyamory Explained to Mothers and Grandmothers' by Roberto Pérez Toledo. La Tenda di Gionata has also published a number of articles and testimonies on polyamory on its website, including interviews with members of the group 'Polifamiglie', reflections by self-described polyamorous Catholics, and discussions on family life, faith, and participation in the Church by people in polyamorous relationships. #newsInsrpmeofk
French prosecutors have dropped all cases against six Catholics arrested after the June 6 incident at Saint-Laurent Church in Paris during the controversial Nuit Blanche event. The six Catholics spent up to 44 hours in police custody. In the end, prosecutors found that “no offence was sufficiently established.” Video footage showed a general scuffle, but investigators could not identify any active wrongdoing by those arrested. Many Catholics say they were simply praying in their church before being removed to make way for an event they viewed as disrespectful to a sacred place.
In his homily in Madrid on June 7, Leo XIV used the phrase that “the risen Lord [...] becomes bread to satiate our hunger for life.” Catholic theology rejects the idea that Christ is changed into bread (the heresy commonly called impanation). At the Transubstantiation, the opposite happens: the substance of bread becomes the Body of Christ. Read in a literal sense, the phrase “becomes bread” is at least ambiguous. Such language can only be understood in some poetic sense. A normal formulation for a pope or even simple Catholic theologian would be: “The sacrifice of Christ is made sacramentally present under the appearance of bread.” #newsRuzriacybc
Lyhanna The outcry sparked by the murder of 11-year-old Lyhanna in France shows no sign of abating. More than a week after the girl’s body was found, the case has taken on a national dimension, fuelled by a series of revelations about the past of the main suspect, Jérôme Barella, as well as the alleged failings of the institutions responsible for protecting minors. Across France, rallies have been held outside courthouses. In Paris, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Marseille, Lille, and Lyon, thousands of people have gathered to pay tribute to the victim and demand answers. In many cities, participants have condemned what they see as a series of failures that allowed a man who had already been reported on several occasions to evade the justice system for several years. As the days have passed, revelations about Jérôme Barella’s history have reinforced this sense of bewilderment. Several proceedings against him for sexual offences against minors were reportedly known to the authorities before the …
New Vatican Lay-Prefect Sides with Israel: On 24 October 2023, during a conference at the Catholic University of Steubenville, Montse Alvardo, the new - civilly divorced - Zionist Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery of Communication, spoke about "antisemitism". She expressed sympathy for the Jewish experience, stating that, biblically, "we're called to pick a side", describing the victims of 7 October as "martyrs", and arguing that some contemporary protest movements are driven by hatred of Jews. She also criticised the combination of Palestinian and homosexual activism within the same protest coalitions. Key quotes: - 'We teach [the Holocaust] to our children. We fight for people to understand that it is part of our story too.” - 'I would add those I call martyrs from 7 October to that.' - 'Rabbi Soloveitchik talked about the flag of reproductive justice alongside the Palestinian flag and Hamas. At a protest, I saw the LGBTQ+ flag alongside them. Those people would be stoned and lynched …مزید

"Never Wanted to Be Pope": Today, at the Augustinian Parish of St. Augustine in Barcelona, Leo XIV delivered a familiar line often heard from careerists: “I never wanted to be Pope - not when I was younger and not when I was older - but when the Lord calls, you have to say yes.”
Leo XIV says “I never wanted to be Pope, not when I was younger and not when I was older, but when the Lord calls you have to say yes”
It's true, he didn't want to be pope but a false pope chosen by the false Bergoglian cardinals. Furthermore, although he hides it and deceives almost everyone, he is not the Pope.
In a June 8 interview with Matt Gaspers, Bishop Athanasius Schneider spoke about Vatican II, Pope Leo XIV, Cardinal Fernández, Cardinal Müller, the FSSPX, and the post-conciliar crisis. Main passages - slightly shortened for readability. Leo XIV Continuing the Vatican II Project Pope Francis, with all his so-called reforms, which were very questionable also doctrinally, was convinced that this is a natural, coherent development of the teaching of Vatican II. Pope Francis declared it several times, and in this sense, it's obvious that Pope Leo continues and understands it. On High-Ranking Clergy and a "Different Church" A remarkable number of high-ranking clergy - cardinals and bishops - no longer hold the Catholic faith in its fullness. They have embraced another church: half Protestant, half worldly, adapted to the spirit of the age. On Deliberately Changing the Faith Some church leaders sought to adapt the Catholic faith completely to the world, creating a relativistic and syncretistic …مزید
Cardinal Robert Sarah has denied a social media post which attributed criticism of blasphemous performances held in Parisian churches on 6–7 June to him. During the Nuit Blanche 2026 in Paris churches, there was, among other scandals, a human-like figure simulating masturbation. A widely shared online post featured a picture of Cardinal Sarah and quoted him as saying that a church is “not a concert hall or entertainment venue, but a place of worship reserved for God.” Speaking by phone to TribuneChrétienne.com on June 9, Cardinal Sarah said that he is currently preaching a retreat for priests and that he had not commented on 'Nuit Blanche'. He described the publication as “disrespectful” and “very dishonest.” Cardinal Sarah was unaware of the issue and had been largely disconnected from current events while on retreat. “I am simply saddened that people are speaking in my name on a matter about which I know absolutely nothing,” he said. #newsGpjzaxvrho
But he should and must absolutely know about such blasphemous things which ARE ALLOWED to happen in any church anywhere on earth. He and all his fellow cardinals! With their pachapapa Bob. And they all should and must do something about it.
During a homosexual march in Padua, Italy, on 30 May, the homosexual group Il Mandorlo held blasphemous banners outside the cathedral. The group is officially recognised as "Catholic" by the Diocese of Padua. The signs read: - Here we are in a "fagcession"', (a play on the words fag and procession) - The Catholic queers are here - I'm beautiful just the way I am because God makes no mistakes - God is queer among us Bishop Claudio Cipolla of Padua has previously participated in 'prayer vigils' with those homosexuals. During a recent celebration of the Republic's eightieth anniversary in Piazza dei Frutti, Bishop Cipolla downplayed the blasphemies, saying, "I am embarrassed by what these young people did. Seeing those signs made me feel very embarrassed. But let's see, let's wait. It's important that there is always respect for those who think differently." He continued: "As a bishop, I stand at the head of a large institution that includes the entire Christian community, made up of people …مزید
I am slowly understanding that the Catholic Church is not as big as I thought it was! Enter through the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and those who find it are few in number. [Matthew 7:13-14]
