“Hatred is rising” — Urgent Papal call for ceasefire in Iran war | Shalom World News
Pope Leo on Tuesday, March 24, gave voice to a deep and growing anguish over the darkening tide of hostility in the expanding Iran war, renewing his urgent plea for a ceasefire as reports swirl of a mounting US military presence in the Middle East. With profound but restraint sorrow, Leo lamented that “hatred is increasing, and the violence is getting worse and worse.” His words carried the weight of a shepherd watching a wounded world unravel. Standing before journalists as he departed his residence in Castel Gandolfo, Italy, the pope’s appeal rose not in anger, but in hope: “I want to renew the appeal for a ceasefire, to work for peace, but not with weapons - rather through dialogue, truly seeking a solution for everyone.” Behind the headlines, he pointed to the human cost—lives uprooted, futures shattered. “There are more than a million displaced people and many dead,” he said, echoing the silent …More

UK’s Girlguiding says ‘transgender’ boys must leave organization by September 6 – Allah's Willing Executioners

A Brownies group in London, England Elena Rostunova/Shutterstock
If you had told me a decade ago that organizations in the UK would be the first to begin rejecting gender ideology, I wouldn’t have believed it. But here we are.
In December, Girlguiding—the UK’s largest “girl-only organization” with roughly 300,000 young members—announced that their membership will now be “restricted to girls and young women.” One might be forgiven for thinking that was already the case, but Girlguiding, like so many other organizations, had been conquered by trans activists, and began admitting trans-identifying boys in 2017.
In fact, Girlguiding’s most controversial policy held that the male identity of trans-identifying members—who would accompany girls on camping and outdoor adventures—could not be disclosed, including to the parents of girls. The policy emphasized that trans-identifying boys could use changerooms and showers with the girls. In 2018, a Girlguide leader was fired for saying she …

If This Feminist Nun Has Her Way, ‘Karen’ From The Parish Council Might Soon Be Giving Homilies In Your Local Parish

Influential and militant Femi-nazi, sorry, Salesian “Sister” Linda Pocher, a theologian from Rome who has advised high-level Synodal Church bodies, including the Council of “Cardinals”, on matters concerning women in the Synodal Church, is once again advancing her campaign to destroy God’s ordained order.
In an interview that appeared in Katolisch, she advocates for expanded roles for women in liturgy and governance, suggests that long-standing theological positions may be open to reconsideration, and emphasizes harmony and inclusivity as guiding principles for the Church’s future.
Such claims are of course total garbage and contra the unchanging deposit of Faith. When measured against Sacred Scripture, Apostolic Tradition, and the consistent teaching of the Church, “Sister” Pocher’s proposals reveal not only serious theological errors and the usual Synodal departure from Catholic orthodoxy, but that she is clearly a modernist enemy of Christ’s Church.
The clearest apostolic …

Army raises maximum enlistment age to 42

Army infantry recruits tackle the confidence course on Fort Benning, Georgia. (Christopher Hurd/U.S. Army)
In a sweeping change to its enlistment regulations, the Army has raised the maximum age for eligible recruits to 42, the service announced.
Changes highlighted in the memo, which was distributed this week and will go into effect in April, also include the removal of previous enlistment obstacles for recruits who have a single marijuana or drug paraphernalia conviction.
The announcement comes as the Army continues efforts to widen its recruiting pool after falling short of its Regular Army enlistment goals in 2022 and 2023 before rebounding in 2024.
The upper limit of the Army’s previous allowable enlistment age was 35, but waivers were sometimes granted for older enlistees.
The Air Force and Navy allow recruits over 40, while the Marine Corps caps enlistment at 28 but allows hopefuls who are 29 or over to request waivers.
The average age of Army recruits is currently higher…

Book of Genesis 17,3-9.
When Abram prostrated himself, God spoke to him:
"My covenant with you is this: you are to become the father of a host of nations.
No longer shall you be called Abram; your name shall be Abraham, for I am making you the father of a host of nations.
I will render you exceedingly fertile; I will make nations of you; kings shall stem from you.
I will maintain my covenant with you and your descendants after you throughout the ages as an everlasting pact, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
I will give to you and to your descendants after you the land in which you are now staying, the whole land of Canaan, as a permanent possession; and I will be their God."
God also said to Abraham: "On your part, you and your descendants after you must keep my covenant throughout the ages.

Buch Genesis 17,1a.3-9.
In jenen Tagen erschien der HERR dem Abram.
Abram fiel nieder auf sein Angesicht. Und Gott redete mit ihm und sprach:
Ich bin es. Siehe, das ist mein Bund mit dir: Du wirst Stammvater einer Menge von Völkern.
Man wird dich nicht mehr Abram nennen. Abraham, Vater der Menge, wird dein Name sein; denn zum Stammvater einer Menge von Völkern habe ich dich bestimmt.
Ich mache dich über alle Maßen fruchtbar und lasse dich zu Völkern werden; Könige werden von dir abstammen.
Ich richte meinen Bund auf zwischen mir und dir und mit deinen Nachkommen nach dir, Generation um Generation, einen ewigen Bund: Für dich und deine Nachkommen nach dir werde ich Gott sein.
Dir und deinen Nachkommen nach dir gebe ich das Land, in dem du als Fremder weilst, das ganze Land Kanaan zum ewigen Besitz und ich werde für sie Gott sein.
Du sollst meinen Bund bewahren, du und deine Nachkommen nach dir, Generation um Generation.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 8,51-59.
Jesus said to the Jews: "Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever keeps my word will never see death."
(So) the Jews said to him, "Now we are sure that you are possessed. Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, 'Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.'
Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? Or the prophets, who died? Who do you make yourself out to be?"
Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is worth nothing; but it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, 'He is our God.'
You do not know him, but I know him. And if I should say that I do not know him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know him and I keep his word.
Abraham your father rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad.
So the Jews said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?"
Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM."
So they picked up stones to throw at him; but …More

Putin envoy signals Russia-US lawmakers meeting ‘soon’

Dialogue between the State Duma and US Congress is “vital for the world,” Kirill Dmitriev says
Russian presidential envoy Kirill Dmitriev has announced an upcoming meeting between Russian and US lawmakers, saying direct dialogue between the State Duma and US Congress is “vital” for global stability.
Parliamentary ties were effectively frozen after the Ukraine conflict escalated in February 2022, when Washington sanctioned most Duma (the lower house of parliament) and Federation Council (upper house) members, suspending formal contact and high-level visits.
Since US President Donald Trump’s return to power in early 2025, there has been a push to revive legislative diplomacy, though no direct meetings have yet taken place.
Dmitriev, who also heads the Russian Direct Investment Fund and is involved in Ukraine peace efforts, said on X that a meeting is expected soon, without elaborating.
“Soon, Russia-US parliamentary dialogue is vital for the world,” he wrote on Wednesday, responding …

I DISLIKE IT! I LIKE IT! A RENOVATION RE-ENCHANTMENT RUN AMUCK AND A RENOVATION REENCHANTMENT DONE THE RIGHT WAY AND BOTH BY ECCLESIASTIC STUDIOS AND SONS….

The first “before” and “after” runs off the rails. While the after is better, it is way too much! Did I write, it is way too much! And on top of that, the baldachin contains a true altar with the tabernacle under it and then in front of that another altar. Two altars back to back when the before only had one! Why, oh why!?
It is inconceivable to me that bishops in some dioceses have no policies about having only one main altar when building new churches or having major renovations of older churches.
Thus, I dislike this first “before and after” although the after is better than the before, to say the least, but overdone and of course those back to back altars which are not in the “before”.
BEORE (UGH):
AFTER (UGH):
With this second renovation, I like it, but not completely. This is clearly a 1980’s structure that has seating on three sides of the altar. I get it; but I don’t think this configuration creates a better sense of community compared to straight seating that is more common …
