Alice von Hildebrand: "The greatest heretics and erroneous philosophers were talented, but they lacked the one essential ingredient for anyone desiring to pursue the truth: reverence. In other words, they did not allow reality to reveal itself; they wanted to make up reality. A man can come up with all kinds of interesting ideas, but if he is to get to the truth, he must baptize his intellect with humility, which is closely related to reverence. Truth is not a matter of invention, but of veneration. We do not create truth; we serve it. This is why we cannot end our quest with acceptance of the truth, as praiseworthy as that is. We have to live out the truth in our lives, which is another way of saying our actions have to be good. The apparent beauty of our actions then points others back toward the source of all truth, goodness and beauty: God himself."

Be holy because I am holy , God said to the children of Israel . Be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect, Jesus Christ said to his disciples. These words show us in God the motive and model of our holiness. If we know how to understand them, they tell us more things than the wisest and most enlightened philosophers have ever said. But we will never understand them except through divine light, and practice will develop our meaning even better than speculation. Be holy , says the Lord, because I am holy . What is holiness in God? It is the love of order. God loves order essentially; he cannot approve anything, excuse anything, suffer anything unpunished that is contrary to it. He can allow disorder in his creature, suffer it for a time, forgive it, if she disavows it and repairs it; but he reproaches him, he pursues him and he punishes him wherever he sees him, when the time of his justice has come, and that of mercy has passed. Why that ? Because he is holy. He cannot fail to …More

Orthodox reactions on both sides of the fence start to pour in: Deaconesses would turn the sanctuary into a brothel.” Elpidophoros ( USA Archbishop) expressed support for expanding women’s visibility in the church, giving his blessing to including lay girls and women in liturgical processions. But Metropolitan Saba, leader of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, the sponsor of Ancient Faith Radio, has taken a more conservative approach, quietly admonishing at least one parish that encouraged female participation in the liturgical procession. Valerie Karras, a St. Phoebe board member and retired theology and church history professor who served on faculty at Hellenic College and Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology among other schools. She described the comments as “historically and theologically ignorant,” as well as “condescending, obnoxious, vitriolic, free with ad hominem attacks” and “misogynistic.”

The electronic baptismal register of the Gurk-Klagenfurt diocese in Austria lists three imaginary genders in addition to the two existing ones. When registering a baptism, a priest can choose from five options: - male - female - mixed - diverse - open - not specified The majority of priests don't even know what the imaginary genders would mean and have never heard of them before their diocese invented them. A priest who complained to the diocesan office responsible for the form was told that the office had "no influence". Since the Second Vatican Council, the diocese of Glurk-Kagenfurt has lost over 40% of its priests and the trend is continuing. #newsPzcaahqeyf

QUESTION 25 — DIVINE POWER After science and the divine will, after what is connected with it, it remains to study divine power. 1. Is there power in God? 2. Is its power infinite? 3. Is he all-powerful? 4. Can he make things past not to have been? 5. Can he do the things he does not do, or omit the things he does? 6. What he does, could he do it better? Article 1 - Is there power in God? Objections: 1. It seems not. In fact, there is the same relationship between primary matter and power as between God, primary agent, and the act. But the raw material, considered in itself, is without any act. Therefore the primary agent, which is God, has no power. 2 . According to the Philosopher, every act is better than its power; for form is better than matter, and action is better than active power, because it is the end of it. But nothing is better than what is in God; for whatever is in God is God, as has been shown. Therefore there is no power in God. 3 . Power is a principle of operation. But …More

A Priest passing through his church In the middle of the day, Decided to pause by the altar To see who come to pray. Just then the back door opened, And a man came down the aisle, The Priest frowned as he saw the man Hadn't shaved in a while. His shirt was torn and shabby, And his coat was worn and frayed, The man knelt down and bowed his head, Then rose and walked away. . In the days that followed at precisely noon, The Priest saw this man, Each time he knelt just for a moment, A lunch box in his lap. Well, the Priest’s suspicions grew, With robbery a main fear, . He decided to stop and ask the man, 'What are you doing here?' The old man said he was a factory worker And lunch was half an hour Lunchtime was his prayer time, For finding strength and power. I stay only a moment Because the factory's far away; As I kneel here talking to the Lord, This is kinda what I say: . 'I JUST CAME BY TO TELL YOU, LORD, HOW HAPPY I HAVE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN. …More

On the last day of Parish Priests for the Synod—an international meeting of parish priests at the Vatican—Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, SJ, encouraged participants “to become ambassadors of synodality, to be full participants in a synodal Church, to become with all the people of God, missionary disciples of Jesus.” “Many times their training and their reality have been oriented towards a Tridentine model of the priesthood,” Cardinal Hollerich, the relator-general of the synod on synodality, said of parish priests, in an address to Pope Francis in the presence of participants. “And now they see that the identity they had for centuries is crumbling, and sometimes this identity is lost ... and there is the danger of wanting to build a new identity based on the experience of the past.” “The identity of priests and parish priests (even bishops) is given to us by the Holy Spirit when we walk with the people,” he continued. “Then the sacraments are no longer the expression of a ritualism in …More

On 8 May, Francis received in private audience Mundiya Kepanga, chief of a tribal community in the Tari region of Papua New Guinea. Francis will visit the country from 6 to 9 September. Mundiya Kepanga belongs to the Telabo Angi Puria clan, part of the Huli tribe, known previously for magic, witchcraft and cannibalism. He only appears in his funny dress for photo ops. Otherwise he is an activist for the oligarchs and other champagne socialists, promoting their climate hysteria, often travelling by plane around the world. #newsCvphnztadh
