This photograph was taken during a Christian baptism in Brazil. At the exact moment water was poured over the child’s head, the falling droplets briefly aligned into the shape of a rosary. The camera captured a fraction of a second that would normally pass unnoticed, recording the moment as it happened. Baptism is a public act, representing cleansing, rebirth, and commitment. A rosary is traditionally associated with prayer, repetition, and devotion. In this image, both appear together—not through planning, but through timing. The photograph itself does not interpret the moment. It does not assign meaning or intention. It simply documents what occurred in front of the lens. And yet, many people pause longer on this image than expected, as if something about the alignment feels heavier than coincidence, even without explanation. When moments like this happen without design, what do you think gives them meaning—the event itself, or the way we respond to it?
Fr. Gerald Murray: "I'll say this again... No bishop can prohibit Ad Orientem celebration of the Mass in his diocese beyond his powers, because it is foreseen in the Roman Missal, and the Dicastery of Divine Worship has affirmed in private correspondence in the past that this remains a legitimate way to celebrate Mass. Sad to say, many bishops ignore it, and they won't like it to hear it said, but there and by, why in the world would you want to prohibit what was done for 1300 years or more?"
When the Novus Ordo came out, it stated (for the Orate Frates) the priest TURNS to the congregation, meaning that it was taken for granted the priest was celebrating the Mass AD ORIENTEM.
It was taught in theology schools since Vatican II that the bishop is the "chief liturgist" in his diocese. Usually a task he performed with the consultation of some professional liturgist [mostly female]. Hence the reason why the N.O. Mass is different from diocese to diocese.
Yet another coup Ginger theory youtube.com/watch?v=Svi_xQHO5nc In this video, Ginger Theory discusses the current events in Venezuela, Technocracy Incorporated & Elon’s Grandfather, and when the US tried to overthrow Venezuela through Hugo Chavez.; and ties it all together!
People have very short memories. The 24 hour news cycle makes last month's headlines out-of-date. That's why we never learn any lessons from history. For example: all the scandals of Francis/Leo are merely a rehash of the post-Vatican II period of the 70s & 80s. That's why I marvel at people losing their minds over it. I already lived through it once AND survived. Keep the Faith!
'Advice' from an atheist - Kurt Vonnegut (? ) ~~ There is no reason why good cannot triumph as often as evil. The triumph of anything is a matter of organization...
What? There is no reason why good cannot triumph as often as evil? There should be no reason for evil to triumph ever! Does he even know or understand what evil is? He sounds as thought it's ok to be or do evil. Just do more good than evil. That's how I am reading and getting out of it. Is this what you are getting out of itIn Principio to you?
The saddest sight is the soul destined for Hell. Christ calls us to a life of servium, which means specifically that we don't choose our own way, our own wants.
StarBoySAR @StarboySAR Trump to Big Oil: "Please loot Venezuela for me" Big Oil to Trump: "Nah, We're good". A hilarious scene unfolded in the White House. The president, promising "total security," tried to rally oil execs for a Venezuela investment blitz. The response? A masterclass in capitalist realism Why the skepticism? For years, Washington weaponized sanctions to strangle Venezuela’s oil industry (you know, “humanitarian concern” my ass)—freezing assets, blacklisting companies, and making it impossible to invest without getting on Uncle Sam’s bad side. Now Trump’s like “Oops, never mind! Come spend billions!” ExxonMobil's CEO didn't mince words: Venezuela is "uninvestible." Not because of sanctions they once cheered for, but due to a lack of "legal and commercial frameworks." The same cowboys who drilled in Iraq's war zones now want "stability guarantees" from a country the US sanctioned into the ground. Because this time the regime-change project is too messy, even for …More

An account of my discovery of and subsequent journey with the headcovering/veil in the post Vatican II Church.. by Maria delos Angeles ------------------- I have been going up to women . I felt an inner calling to do so., in churches in the Westminster diocese and said to them, quite naturally - nothing forced , nothing condescending.., "from one woman to another .." Entre nous., I believe you are missing some blessing here .. There was a look coming from a deep place in the psyche of all of those woman with whom I spoke - unveiled in Church, unveiled before the Blessed Sacrament , which when I spoke them about this important subject.. , it seems to me that what I was conveying to them bypassed the critical faculties - as if it was going to the depths of the mystery of her womanhood into the very depths of her soul . That she acknowledged the truth of what I was saying to her - I believe because of where I was coming from with it.. Initially some women reacted at bit with some pride .…More
Pepe Deluxe @deluxe_pepe January 6: A Date Which Will Live in Infamy Since January 6, 2021, Nancy Pelosi spent over 3 years and nearly $20 million in taxpayer funds on her partisan Select Committee, producing a scripted TV spectacle to fabricate an “insurrection” narrative and pin all blame on President Trump. Video and audio recordings, including unaired HBO footage from her own daughter, show Nancy Pelosi repeatedly acknowledging responsibility for the catastrophic security failures—admitting “We have totally failed” and “I take full responsibility” for not having the National Guard pre-deployed, despite intelligence warnings and President Trump’s offers of troops that were ignored under her leadership as Speaker. The Democrats masterfully reversed reality after January 6, branding peaceful patriotic protesters as “insurrectionists” and framing the event as a violent coup attempt orchestrated by Trump—despite no evidence of armed rebellion or intent to overthrow the government.…More
Don Rodrigo, a 45-year-old Catholic priest, was stabbed in the neck in Modena, Italy. The stabbing of a 45-year-old Colombian priest in central Modena Tuesday was not an attempted robbery but a deliberate attack aimed at killing him, police in the Emilia-Romagna city said Wednesday.
L'odio istigato dai politici verso la chiesa produce questi crimini. Quest'odio è emerso anche per come hanno reagito i comunisti contro Suetta il quale ha eretto una campana che ogni sera darà un rintocco per ricordare a tutti che ogni giorno muoiono bambini innocenti nel grembo materno a causa dell'aborto.
