Conservative Archbishop Alexander K. Sample of Portland, Oregon attacked in an in-house interview on Youtube.com on July 28 the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX). Main quotes. • "The FSSPX's recent consecration of bishops without a papal mandate takes the situation to a whole new level. They are now the second time bishops have been consecrated." • "They see themselves as the faithful remnant, as though the rest of the Church is wrong and they alone are right. Folks, please don't be in that position." • "I don't attribute any ill will to these folks. They're sincere in wanting to preserve tradition and be faithful Catholics. But they have in fact become something else now, especially in light of these recent consecrations." • "They still mention the Pope in the Eucharistic Prayer, but it's just words. It's not a real communion. They give lip service." Summorum Pontificum Not About FSSPX • "Everybody thinks that Pope Benedict issued Summorum Pontificum... to bring them back …Bontsi

Pro-homosexual Archbishop John C. Wester of Santa Fe, New Mexico, defended "our Muslim neighbors' right to worship" in a July 27 statement. He had heard in recent weeks concerns from some residents regarding the proposal to build a mosque and community center in Albuquerque's North Valley. "Our Muslim neighbors have the same God-given and constitutionally protected right to worship freely as every other faith community, including our own. Defending that right is not only a civic duty but a core element of Catholic teaching", the Archbishop wrote. According to Monsignor Wester, supporting the construction of a mosque is entirely consistent with Catholic tradition and moral commitments. He urged Catholics to "choose respect, dialogue, and peaceful coexistence." In 2025, it emerged that, Archbishop Wester promoted and lived with a priest who had spent ten years in a registered homosexual relationship. Picture: AI, #newsXofkbkkgnx

Private Masses During Spain's "Chartres" Pilgrimage: The picture shows the private Masses in the Roman Rite celebrated simultaneously by the priests attending the Pilgrimage to Covadonga, Spain last weekend. Nearly 2,000 pilgrims - mostly young people and families with children - took part in it. At the conclusion of the pilgrimage, permission was not granted to celebrate Mass in the Basilica of Covadonga. Instead, the pilgrims gathered to sing the Te Deum.

Fr. Fliss is not some random cleric. He is the PASTOR of Ss. Cyril and Methodius, home of the ICKSP in Wisconsin! According to him, the TLM "does not share equal status and dignity as the Mass of Paul VI" and is "a step backward in [the] faith and spiritual life." Tick tock!
@Lisi Sterndorfer I feel that Father Fliss took a "cheap shot" (made a disparaging remark) when he said, "for those who have not grown deep enough in faith"

Today, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Gerard Nash, 67, as Bishop of Ossory while he remains also Bishop of Ferns. The pope united two neighboring Irish dioceses in persona episcopi. Under this arrangement, both dioceses retain for now their separate legal identities but are entrusted to the same bishop. Bishop Nash has led the Diocese of Ferns since 2021 and has served as Apostolic Administrator of Ossory since January 2026. Together, the two dioceses serve less than 200,000 Catholics. The appointment marks another step in the ongoing restructuring of the shrinking Church in Ireland. The policy of diocesan consolidation is clearly expanding beyond western Ireland While three previous in persona episcopi unions took place within the Ecclesiastical Province of Tuam in western Ireland, the union of Ferns and Ossory is the first outside that province.

Today, Rev. Francis Xavier Duan Yongkun, 45, was consecrated a bishop. The Vatican announced only today that Pope Leo XIV had appointed him on June 15 as Coadjutor Bishop of Bameng, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. For the previous three episcopal appointments in China, the regime publicly announced the election of the bishop-designate before the Holy See. In today's case, no comparable notice about the Chinese selection process has been released. Underground Bishop chose recognition The Diocese of Bameng (40,000 Catholics, 30 priests, 20 religious sisters) is not vacant. The current bishop, Matthew Du Jiang, is only 63 years old. He was consecrated for the Catholic underground Church in 2004 and officially recognized by the Chinese authorities as bishop in 2010. As part of the recognition process, he was required to participate in an installation ceremony concelebrated with Bishop Ma Yinglin of Kunming, then a leading figure in the Chinese state church. The ceremony caused …Bontsi
“Homosexual Acts Are Particularly Detestable in God’s Sight”: Cardinal Joseph Zen, 94, of Hong Kong wrote on his blog on July 27 about the evil forces that tempt us, including the inclinations of the flesh. “Of course, ethics and morality aren't just about the Sixth and Ninth Commandments, but sins of this kind are the easiest to become addicted to. Especially those LGBTQ sins - they utterly violate the Creator's plan for humanity.” Cardinal Zen added that homosexual acts are “not only called sin in the Bible but are an Abomination (particularly detestable) in God's sight.” He also writes: “The merciful God also rained down fire to destroy Sodom.”
Ancient Chinese Writings Recorded the Death of Christ?! Did ancient Chinese emperors record the exact day of the crucifixion?! History books from the Han Dynasty describe an eclipse where "the sins of all under heaven are now on one man." Even wilder? NASA’s historical data confirms a lunar eclipse on April 3, 33 AD, the date some scholars pinpoint for the crucifixion. Is this the ultimate historical crossover, or just a massive coincidence? What do you think? Drop your thoughts below! Is there another historical occurrence like this? #faithandfriction#faithandfrictionpodcast
Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington D.C. authorised monthly lay "commentary" during the Eucharist at the Jesuit parish of Holy Trinity in Georgetown, according to BigModernism.Substack.com (July 28). The blog published a letter dated 4 February 2026 and signed by Fr James Casciotti, SJ. The letter responds to concerns raised by a correspondent about the parish's liturgical practices. Fr Casciotti addresses several issues, including chatting until just before the Eucharist. The key passage states: "You should know that the Cardinal has given permission for lay commentary once a month at Holy Trinity [...]". The letter does not identify the cardinal by name. In February 2026, Cardinal Robert McElroy was Archbishop of Washington, having been appointed in January 2025 and installed in March 2025. Separately, the blog cites a firsthand account from a reader alleging that the practice involved a woman delivering what functioned as the homily during Mass under the name "commentary."

Four foot five inches tall, and physically weak, his health became worse with age.
