On 24 March, a court in Privas, France, delivered its verdict in the case of Father Bernard Domini and the Catholic community Famille Missionnaire de Notre Dame (FMND). The case raises wider questions about religious freedom and new legal standards in France. Following a two-year investigation, the case centred on allegations of "abuse of vulnerability" and 2psychological subjection" brought by five former members of the community. The community has approximately 160 members. The charges did not involve allegations of sexual abuse, physical violence or financial misconduct, but instead focused on the community's internal practices and discipline. In its ruling, the court issued ten decisions, resulting in seven acquittals and three convictions. Father Bernard was convicted on one count and acquitted on four others, while the FMND was convicted on two counts. The punishments handed down were relatively lenient: a six-month suspended sentence for Father Bernard and a €25,000 fine for the …আরও
Cardinal Pizzaballa on Palm Sunday: “In this afternoon of Palm Sunday we gather without a procession, without palms waving through the streets. This absence is not merely a matter of formalities. It is the war that has interrupted our festive journey, making even the simple joy of following our King difficult.” “Today Jesus weeps once more over Jerusalem. He weeps over this city, which remains a sign of both hope and sorrow, of grace and suffering. He weeps over this Holy Land, still unable to recognize the gift of peace. He weeps for all the victims of a war that seems without end: for divided families, for shattered hopes. But the tears of Jesus are never fruitless. They open our eyes, challenge us, and reveal the truth.”
Jerusalem: Kardinal an Zutritt zu Grabeskirche gehindert Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land, Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, ist von der israelischen Polizei am Zugang zur Grabeskirche in der Altstadt von Jerusalem gehindert worden. Der Italiener Pizzaballa habe in der Kirche die traditionelle Messe zum Palmsonntag feiern wollen, sei aber von israelischen Polizisten angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert worden, teilte das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem heute mit. Reuters/Ammar Awad Mit ihm sei zudem der Kustos im Heiligen Land, Francesco Ielpo, gewesen. Der Franziskaner ist der oberste Wächter der Heiligen Stätten, einschließlich der Grabeskirche. Das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem bezeichnete den Vorfall als „schwerwiegenden Präzedenzfall“.

I was in the middle of listening to exactly what Russia was doing to help or not help Iran. I will finish it and then post it. if I can find it again. Not sure who posted it. But was from a Russian channel I believe. I don't trust anyone from this administration or the media. I rather hear it from the mouth of Putin himself who never lies. Every time someone posts a video or article I usually already know if it's true or not. And the truth is always revealed.
Catholic Diocese of Grand Rapids, MI, on the status of Calvin Robinson: He is not a Catholic. He is part of a very small schismatic group, after having switched from the Anglican Church and five other sub denominations in less than 4 years.
Israeli police prevented two of the most senior Catholic leaders in the Holy Land - Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusalem, and Father Francesco Ielpo, Custos of the Holy Land - from entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on Palm Sunday. Lpj.org announced that they were stopped while walking to the church, where they were scheduled to celebrate the Eucharist on Palm Sunday. They were required to turn back, despite not participating in any public gathering. As a result, the church leaders were unable to preside over the Palm Sunday liturgy. This is unprecedented in modern times. The Latin Patriarchate added they had complied with all restrictions imposed since the outbreak of the ongoing conflict, including canceling public gatherings and arranging for services to be broadcast to the faithful worldwide. They characterized the decision to block access as “unreasonable” and “disproportionate”. #newsTjnhyvbccs

Lt. Col. Daniel Davis and the ongoing war in Iran. Iran completely destroyed a billion dollar US stat missile defense system in Jordon. Satellite images. A cheap drone completely bypassed the most advanced American radar. The US is trying to hide this huge humiliation. BREAKING: Escalation Achieved, Yemen's Houthis Fire on Israel
Reports indicate Saudi Arabia is now aligning with U.S. and Israeli operations following Iranian strikes on regional bases. If confirmed, this marks a major escalation: • A U.S.-Israel operation becomes a wider coalition war • Multiple Gulf states now directly involved • Iran facing pressure from several fronts at once • The risk of full regional conflict just surged
It was American and British interests in 1953 that made sure the autocratic Shaw had power. A little history helps to explain the animosity many have for the American empire. Who is the real bully?

Fr. Romano Tommasi, SLD 21 March, 2026. Theological Persuasion, Imperial Governance, and Emergency Ecclesiology: Structural Reassessment of the SSPX in Light of Roman Juridical Practice and Historical Parallels Introduction: The Question Misstated The question of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) is almost universally framed in Catholic discourse as a question of obedience or disobedience, and more sharply as a question of schism. This framing, however, presupposes what must be demonstrated—namely, that the existence of parallel ecclesial structures, sustained over time and involving episcopal ordinations without papal mandate, necessarily constitutes schism in the strict canonical and theological sense. This article proposes a different approach. Rather than adjudicating the rightness or wrongness of the SSPX position, it asks whether the category schism is an adequate diagnostic descriptor at all. It argues that the persistence of the SSPX is better explained by a structural failure …আরও
