Worse than Germany: During Pope Leo XIV’s visit to Spain in June, the Archdiocese of Madrid will not be providing confessionals at any of the large-scale events or during the youth vigil. Instead, 'listening spaces' staffed by lay pastoral workers who have received specific training for this purpose. These spaces will be located along Paseo de la Castellana. Sara de la Torre, the press speaker for the Archdiocese of Madrid, told the Substack.com account ‘The Pillar’ that the “listening spaces” do not replace confessions, but complement them. Catholics should look to confess at any of Madrid's many parishes. The “listening spaces” are intended for those who wish to have a conversation, and are “something different”. On 6 June, during the youth vigil in Plaza de Lima, there will be no confessionals. At previous church gatherings in recent decades, such as World Youth Days, the presence of priests hearing confessions was at least a sign of Catholicism and the sacrament of reconciliation. …More
Wed May 20, 2026 - 12:52 pm EDTWed May 20, 2026 - 4:05 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — In a stunning upset that underscored the power of the pro-Israel billionaire class, longtime Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie lost his primary Tuesday night to Trump-endorsed challenger Ed Gallrein. The former Navy SEAL—who refused to even publicly debate Massie—defeated the seven-term incumbent roughly 55 to 45 percent in what became the most expensive U.S. House primary in recorded history, with more than $34 million spent overall, including more than $25.8 million from outside groups. Massie, a libertarian-leaning fiscal hawk and vocal critic of endless foreign aid and wars, had long drawn fire from pro-Israel groups and Trump allies. Gallrein, recruited by Trump, positioned himself as a reliable supporter of the president’s very unpopular foreign policy agenda which critics say puts the interests of Israel over those of the United States. Thomas Massie: “I came here to make sure our Republic …
A resurfaced patent awarded to an elite biomedical research institution in New York City details technology described as enabling the 'remote control of cell function.' Granted to the Rockefeller University in 2018, the patent describes using tiny engineered particles called nanoparticles that can be directed toward specific types of cells either from outside the cell or by being placed inside it. When exposed to radio waves, the particles heat up and activate temperature-sensitive channels within the targeted cells. That heat then triggers a biological response inside the cell, such as switching on certain genes or prompting the production of proteins. According to the patent, the technology could potentially be used to treat a wide range of diseases and disorders by remotely activating specific cellular functions inside the body. While the technology could potentially revolutionize healthcare, the patent has sparked fears and conspiracy theories online because of the university's …

Ecumenism with this protestant? 'Pastor' at Peace Lutheran Church in Las Cruces says that Jesus' statements of "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me" are not exclusionary, but rather an argument FOR some type of universalism.
Israel police force Gaza flotilla activists to kneel hands tied Israeli police forced activists who were aboard a Gaza-bound aid flotilla to kneel on the ground in rows with their hands tied behind their backs while a minister looked on, drawing criticism from foreign leaders and even from inside Israel's government.
Israelische Polizei zwingt Gaza-Flottillen-Aktivisten mit gefesselten Händen in die Knie Ein Video des israelischen Polizeiminister Itamar Ben-Gvir, das Gaza-Aktivisten in demütigender Weise zeigt, hat für große Empörung in mehreren europäischen Außenministerien gesorgt. Auch der israelische Chefdiplomat Gideon Saar sowie Regierungschef Benjamin Netanjahu reagierten mit deutlichen Worten auf den Videopost Ben-Gvirs auf der Plattform X. Die Bundesregierung kritisierte das Verhalten des Ministers ebenfalls scharf. Diverse Staaten protestierten angesichts des Videos, mehrere Länder bestellten die israelischen Botschafter ein. Außenminister Johann Wadephul sagte der dpa, das Verhalten Ben-Gvirs sei "vollkommen inakzeptabel". "Es widerspricht den Werten, für die Deutschland mit Israel gemeinsam stehen will, fundamental", so der CDU-Politiker. Er sei seinem israelischen Amtskollegen Saar dankbar "für die klaren Worte, die er für dieses unsägliche Verhalten gefunden hat". Zuvor hatte der …More

Acts 25:13-21 "A certain Jesus who had died but who Paul claimed was alive." It is wonderful; life continues in Christ. John 21:15-19 Jesus specifically tells Peter: "Feed my lambs. Tend my sheep." And the same message is for us as well. Let us allow the sheep to become free by revealing to them that they are loved by God. Jesus is the First Shepherd, and we lead the sheep to him. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.

I give them a lot of credit. What they do is amazing. Pro-Lifers Destroy the “Babies Are Parasites” Argument Sign the pro-life petition to defund Planned Parenthood here Defund Planned Parenthood to End Abortion NOW Ready for a rematch, TFP Student Action returned to Millersville University to defend the unborn and oppose the culture of death. Although universities are supposed to be places where science, reason, and truth prevail, many woke students on campus appeared more interested in relativism and emotional slogans than in objective moral truth. Pro-abortion students made shocking claims: · “An unborn human is like a tumor.” · “I was a parasite before I took my first breath.” · “That white men make up moral absolutes.” In traditional TFP style, Student Action volunteers responded to the rudeness and racism with chivalry, charity, logic, and the simple facts. A pro-life college student voiced her support for the campaign saying: “I believe that when a child is conceived, there …More
Sunday, 18th May 1913 Burns Sleuth Makes Report in Phagan Case Sunday, May 18th, 1913 Progress of Investigation Into Girl's Slaying Very Rapid, Declares Felder. After 24 hours on the scene of the Phagan muder, the head of the department of criminal investigation of the Burns Detective Agency made his first report to his client, Thomas B. Felder, last night. The report was so satisfactory that Colonel Felder announced more had been accomplished in the 24 hours than in any week of the investigation before the arrival of the Burns detective. The fund to secure the services of William J. Burns and defray the expenses of the investigation of his first lieutenant went above the $2,000 mark yesterday. Solicitor General Hugh M. Dorsey said that instead of being ready for the Grand Jury the Phagan case was still far from being in shape to be presented, and it was not certain it would be presented this week. New Arrest Unlikely. The probability of a new arrest being ordered from the office of the …More

2 officers in Jan. 6 riot sue to block DOJ "anti-weaponization" fund 2 officers who clashed with rioters on January 6 sue to block DOJ "anti-weaponization" fund 03:46 Two law enforcement officers who clashed with rioters at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, sued Wednesday to block the Trump administration's $1.7 billion "anti-weaponization fund," which was created this week as part of a settlement between President Trump and the federal government. The lawsuit, filed in federal court in the District of Columbia by retired U.S. Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn and Metropolitan Police Department officer Daniel Hodges, asks a federal judge to find the creation of the fund illegal and reverse any transfers that the Treasury Department has made to the Justice Department to implement it. Both Dunn and Hodges defended the U.S. Capitol after a mob of Trump supporters attempted to stop the certification of the Electoral College on Jan. 6, 2021. The fund was announced Monday by the Justice …More
