Very strong statement on Traditionis Custodes by Bp. Rob Mutsaerts (Den Bosch, Netherlands)

Pope Francis promotes synodality: everyone should be able to talk, everyone should be heard. This was hardly the case with his recently published motu proprio Traditionis Custodes, an ukase [imperial edict] that must put an immediate termination on the traditional Latin Mass. In so doing, Francis puts a big bold line through Summorum Pontificum, Pope Benedict’s motu proprio that gave ample scope to the old Mass. MORE

Another WOW. My parents were living in Catania Sicily before coming to America. I have relatives there.

This 21-year-old is now the only woman in history to run under 52 seconds in the women’s 400-meter hurdles and one of the preeminent faces of the new generation of track and field athletes. Sydney McLaughlin set a new world record and received the gold medal. Her words reflect her faith as she boldly said, “Records come and go, the glory of God is eternal.” and “I no longer run for self-recognition, but to reflect His perfect will that is already set in stone. I don’t deserve anything. But by grace, through faith, Jesus has given me everything.” MORE

The truth is coming out. First, how do they know it’s 21,000 cases? Are people in Florida getting tested? NO. There are no lines at the testing centers. Floridians have gone on with their daily lives.

In Jacksonville, Miami, or Orlando  hasn’t had a single covid death all summer. If you look at the case numbers, they (MIKE SCHNEIDER Associated Press) manipulated those numbers, when you see the massive 300 spike, it was created with old data.
