Asked about the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Jaime Spengler of Porto Alegre, Brazil, said that “the river doesn’t flow backwards.” He spoke with VidaNuevaDigital.com on January 16. The cardinal is president of the bishops’ conferences of Brazil and Latin America (CELAM). His main statement echoes the historically weak ideas promoted by Cardinal Roche at the consistory on January 7-8. Cardinal Spengler said, “Throughout history, the liturgy has undergone various reforms. The Second Vatican Council represents an enormous effort to recover fundamental elements of Catholic liturgical celebration. Nostalgic proposals do not help to promote what the Council identified as essential for the liturgy.” Furthermore, Cardinal Spengler offered a pointless definition of the Eucharist: “Liturgy cannot be understood simply as an expression of religious practice; above all, it is a vigorous expression of a lived experience of faith, both personal and communal - an experience of encounter with …Zambiri
Wisdom 1:7 “The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom.” Psalm 69:9 “The zeal for Your House consumes me, and the insults of those who insult You fall upon me.”
1) "Reforms", yes. but the N.O. is not a reform. It's a purge. It's an emptying out, a replacement, not quite a confection as implied by it's creators or adherents, but more like a conjuration, applied by those more self assured than confidant, more visionary than inciteful, more desparate than diciplined 2) "Recover fundamental elements". One could argue the point, but no, in practice: remove and replace fundamental elements. 3) Flow backwards? Then why seek to "recover"? 4) "a vigorous expression of a lived experience of faith, both personal and communal". This could take volumes and in fact has. In short, it may be all of these things, but is it the faith [that was recovered]? Or something else; and if so, what is this expression saying? And from where does it come?And what has it produced?

Tropaire pour un vénérable père (oriental) En toi, ô vénérable père, l'image de Dieu a été restaurée, car tu as porté ta croix et suivi le Christ. Tu as enseigné par tes actes comment mépriser le corps, car il est éphémère, et comment valoriser l'âme, car elle est immortelle. C'est pourquoi ton âme est pour toujours dans la joie avec les anges.
The world does not want people who are mentally healthy, who can distinguish good from evil, and thus act according to the principle: yes — yes, no — no. The system cultivates those who react to what lies in between. The simple principles passed down to us by Jesus Christ are unacceptable, and the worst part is that this is true even for people who call themselves Christians. No doctor and no pills will cure a lack of spiritual balance. A person becomes merely a perpetual patient of the healthcare system, which is good for the system but tragic in its consequences for the human being. Today we have millions of Christians who have accepted faith only emotionally — emotions that are fleeting and susceptible to the influence of evil. Reason, lulled to sleep in people by media falsehood and omnipresent propaganda, has lost its significance. Thinking hurts so many that the later collision with truth often ends in depression and suicide.
Pope Leo XIV met today with the families of those who lost their lives in Crans Montana on New Year's Eve The pope told the families: 'Your heart is pierced today, as was Mary's at the foot of the Cross, Mary, at the Cross, who saw her Son. Our Lady of Sorrows is close to you in these days, and it is to her that I entrust you. Direct your tears to her without reserve and seek in her the maternal comfort that perhaps only Mary can give and certainly can give you. Like Mary, you will know how to wait patiently, in the night of suffering but with the certainty of faith, for one day, a new day to dawn; and you will rediscover joy'

The Archdiocese of Madrid promotes the so-called Convivium process, an official diocesan consultation involving clergy, parishes, religious communities and lay groups in Madrid, Spain. According to InfoVaticana.com, the process was developed through consultation phases in 2024 and 2025, and is comparable with the German Synod. The Archdiocese of Madrid is currently led by the pro-homosexual Cardinal José Cobo. Preparations have begun for the first Convivium-named Presbyteral Assembly, which is scheduled to take place in Madrid on 9–10 February 2026. The archdiocese has recently distributed official working documents synthesising over 800 pages of submissions from parish pastoral councils, clergy, consecrated life and other ecclesial groups. The archdiocesan synthesis includes a subsection labelled 'Peculiar Proposals'. This subsection cites contributions from groups who advocate optional priestly celibacy and propose a non-lifelong or 'temporary' priesthood. They also refer to 'future …Zambiri

'Sometimes his jokes become reality' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Thursday that he was "speaking facetiously" when he said in an interview the U.S. shouldn't have midterm elections. MS NOW President Donald Trump said the U.S. should not have midterm elections later this year because of his accomplishments in office, according to a report in Reuters. In a 30-minute interview with the outlet, Trump said he had accomplished so much in office that “when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election” in 2026. Trump also expressed frustration that the Republican Party could lose control of the House of Representatives or Senate in the upcoming midterm elections, according to Reuters. “It's some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don't win the midterms,” Trump said. When asked about Trump’s remarks Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that he was “joking” and “speaking facetiously.” Historical …Zambiri

Cardinal Michael Czerny, SJ, 79, said that during the consistory on 7-8 January, he did not hear anyone say, "Oh, I’m sorry we didn’t discuss the liturgy". He told the Substack.com-account The Pillar on 13 January, that what Leo XIV will do with the Mass of the Roman Rite is "beyond my pay grade": "I can’t speculate about how he intends to approach the situation. But I can’t imagine a pope who wouldn’t want to bring peace to the Church. I think every pope since St Peter would want that," the cardinal speculated. In general, he found the consistory a "healthy" exercise. "As soon as we got together and realised that the first thing we would do was spend the whole afternoon discussing it, we realised we were already at work. People immediately switched into gear. All three sessions were good." "Not Possible Without Pope Francis" When asked if the lack of collegiality among the cardinals wasn’t the elephant in the room under Francis, Cardinal Czerny denied it, saying: “No, quite the …Zambiri
Just as the democracy of the French Revolution destroyed the monarchy, synodality seeks to destroy the structure of the Church. As for the liturgy, it's understandable that they don't want to discuss it, since the traditional liturgy doesn't fit with modernist doctrine.
“But I can’t imagine a pope who wouldn’t want to bring peace to the Church. I think every pope since St. Peter would want that.” Could such be said of Francis, Your Eminence?
Archbishop John Bonaventure Kwofie of the Catholic Archdiocese of Accra in Ghana has voiced concern over what he described as a growing influence of homosexuality and gay culture within Catholic Seminaries in West Africa, urging Rectors and other Formators to take decisive action and remain faithful to the Church’s teachings on priestly formation. In his Wednesday, January 14 speech at the opening of the 12th Regional Episcopal Conference of West Africa (RECOWA) Rectors’ Conference at St. Paul’s Catholic Seminary, Sowutuom in Accra, Archbishop Kwofie urged those entrusted with the formation of future Priests to carefully discern and nurture Priestly vocations from the outset, warning that inadequate formation at the entry level could contribute to the emergence of homosexual practices within Seminaries. “I am going to talk about one thing that is growing up like a monster in the Seminaries. Please do your best to weed out people of such orientation from our Seminaries because it …
Pope Francis has advised that men with deep-seated homosexual tendencies should not be admitted to seminaries, a position he reinforced in closed-door meetings in 2024, according to multiple reports . While he has emphasized welcoming all people into the Church, he has expressed concerns about a "gay culture" in seminaries and the potential for candidates to live "double lives" Closed-Door Remarks: In May 2024, during a meeting with Italian bishops, the Pope reportedly said that gay men should not be admitted to priestly formation. He argued that there is "already too much 'frociaggine'" (a derogatory Italian term for faggotry or gayness) in seminaries. Reiteration in June: Reports indicate the Pope repeated this sentiment in June 2024 to priests in Rome, stating that while homosexual individuals should be welcomed and accompanied, they should not be admitted to the seminary.
