Long interview with Lefebvrist Fr. Franz Schmidberger, who was Superior General of the Society of St. Pius X (FSSPX) from 1982-94, who is celebrating his 50th anniversary of priestly ordination today: https://www.corrigenda.online/kultur/interview-mit-pater-franz-schmidberger-wir-muessen-den-himmel-verdienen-das-geht-nicht-ohne (German)
A new web site has been established that argues AGAINST the Material-Formal Thesis: https://www.contra-thesis.com (Full disclosure: Novus Ordo Watch neither endorses nor condemns this position also known as the so-called Cassiciacum Thesis.)
@Daehenob67 I disagree. That is actually the kind of error condemned in the Vatican-approved book "Liberalism is a Sin" by Fr. Felix Sarda y Salvany (1866). We wouldn't praise a car without an engine for its leather seats, nor a child molester for the high-quality candy he gives out.
Ahahahaha!!! Try reading this man's dogmatic theology manual and see just how 'clear' the doctrine is!

“The clarity of doctrine is essential for the Catholic Church…”

These people are groveling at the feet of the Modernists to get a blessing from Prevost. It would be hilarious if it weren't so tragic.

In a remarkable gesture of pastoral solicitude, Pope Leo XIV has extended an Apostolic Blessing to the Society of St. Pius X's chapel in the Charlotte Diocese of North Carolina:

Smiling is a sign of grace within? You have got to be kidding...

#PopeLeo: Ask yourself: Do I use my talents for good?Do I look toward the coming of the Kingdom of God when I carry out some service? Or do I grumble, complain that everything is going wrong? "The smile on our lips is the sign of grace within us.” https://t.co/4haeswxuWV
Looks like a hidden admission that Vatican II established a new religion, a sort of Catholic Church 2.0.
The prophet Isaiah compared the Kingdom of God to a sprout, an image not of power or destruction, but of birth and renewal. The Church experienced this with the Second Vatican Council, which concluded exactly sixty years ago. We renew that experience when we journey toward the
Great news! The Modernist 'Franciscan Media' is shutting down - https://www.osvnews.com/franciscan-media-to-close-at-end-of-2025-amid-larger-downturn-in-catholic-news-media/
The case of Enoch Burke shows how absurd our society is becoming - but what is even worse in a certain sense is that he is appealing to religious belief for his refusal of the transgender ideology. It is simple human reason that refutes this madness, and attempts to base it on

Just a quick reminder for all those who worship 'the marginalized' - Christ Himself commanded some to be marginalized: "And if he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican" (Mt 18:17). St. Paul echoed this in 1 Cor 5:11: "But now I have written to
@Josephvsss No, he's not. He's worse because he is going to deceive more people because, unlike Bergoglio, Leo has the appearance of goodness, truth, and beauty.
Actually, it has to do with our motive. An atheist can feed the hungry all his life long - he won't have loved Christ because of it.
I would like us to remember the Lord’s words: “Truly, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me” (Mt 25:40). It is truly so! If we concretely love those who are hungry and thirsty, those without clothing, those who are sick, strangers,

@Winston68047786 It's not about roles, though - it's simply a distinction that there is a material aspect to the Papacy as well as a formal (not "spiritual") aspect, and this is found also in pre-Vatican II theology (see attached screenshots from Fr. Sylvester Berry's "The Church of Christ", https://t.co/saV6vpy179
