Bishop Byrne's sister, a medical doctor and a member of a conservative traditionalist religious order certainly does! She has declared so openly. Also it's blindingly obvious that Barron is a partisan ideologue whose arrogance is only
surpassed by his greed for money...

"In Elon's defence" !?! The richest man ever in history needs 'defence'?

Perhaps Mike should read Mary's hymn of the Magnificat in the Gospel

" ...He has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones" Luke 1:46-55

I pray they will have to courage to punish Orban and kick Hungary out. It may just facilitate change in the voters in Hungary

Busch backed Vigano and is himself a foe of Pope Francis. I am sure the Ukrainian Greek Catholic bishops don't hold Vance and Trump in such high regard! These Napa Institute guys make me utterly sick... they would crucify Jesus if he came back and accuse him of being supposedly 'woke'

I am told there is a Polish proverb :
"The devil does not touch his own"

It explains a lot about the short term 'success" of evil men like Trump and his spineless cronies like Rubio.

"What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?"

Why not make it Russian after the Trump/Vance disgrace with Zelensky showed their true allegiance?

It shows you how bad things are when 'Francis haters' like de Souza can't stomach the Trump-Vance agitprop

'Tens of millions' to this one movement??? I can't see how that can be possibly true...

I hope Joe Biden does this asap. Trump and his henchmen cannot be trusted. It doesn't matter if Murdoch's malign Fox network (who essentially created the brand of Trump) and the usual suspects go berserk. They are going to cause chaos and wreak havoc whatever Biden does or does not do

Fr Frank Brennan’s Homily for the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe If you’re a republican like me, the imagery of Christ as king does not do a lot for you.  Afterall the feast of Christ the King was instituted by Pope Pius XI back in 1925 when monarchies were stil…
