"A President of the Republic claiming to take no interest in the Church and Catholics would fail in his duty. Be assured of my fervent prayer for your beautiful Nation." (From an address of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV at the Élysée Palace – September 25, 2026)

Des générations de Français ont cessé de transmettre la foi, se sont abandonnées au matérialisme et ont oublié leur âme. Avant de chercher ailleurs les causes de notre déclin, ayons le courage de regarder ce que nous avons nous-mêmes abandonné. #PapeEnFrance

Replying to @Thomisticae
“Dominican theologian Giorgio Albertini, O.P., had wrote after reading Molina’s Concordia: ‘Good heavens! What nonsense they told me about this man! May I perish if there is anything in his words that coheres with the doctrine handed down to me!’

It is both striking and regrettable how frequently certain members (by no means all) of the so-called strict Thomist school engaged in massive slander. For instance, Fr. Parthenius Minges, OFM, exposed this in detail regarding Scotus; what came to light was truly monstrous.
Dominicans would condemn Fr. Luis de Molina for teaching heresy but then attribute to him things he never said or believed. He is perhaps the most slandered theologian by the Dominicans on grace.

The program of the party that just won the elections in Berlin (the renamed "state party" of the "GDR"'s wall murderers SED) reads as if it were written in a padded cell (e.g., "remuneration" of prisoners, "abolition" of the police as far as possible, etc.). But who's surprised?

The Feast of Our Lady of Ransom commemorates an apparition of the Most Blessed Virgin to St. Peter Nolasco and St. Raymond of Peñafort, which led to the founding of the Order of Mercy in 1218. In 1696, Pope Innocent XII extended the feast to the universal Church on September 24.

It was, as everyone involved should have known, highly naive to approach Alexander VII with such a nonsensical request in the first place. Incidentally, as nuncio to Germany, Chigi had already ensured that Germany remained largely spared from Jansenism.
Around the time of the De Auxiliis controversy, some theologians urged that Suarez deserved condemnation. The Pope replied: "Let no one speak to me of Suarez; he is a doctor of a superior order." (Descamps, Part IV, ch. XV, and Sartolo, Book IV, ch. XXVII)

"Socialism, even in its most rational formulation, is untrue and impracticable. It rests upon entirely untenable economic foundations; it would (...) hurl us back into times of crude barbarism." (Fr. Viktor Cathrein SJ, cf. archive.org/details/cathrein…)

Pope St. Linus' "faith and holiness were such that he not only cast out devils, but also raised the dead. He wrote the acts of Blessed Peter, and especially the history of his strife with Simon Magus" (Brev. Rom.) St. Linus' skull is kept in this reliquary in Volterra Cathedral:

In this old baptismal font (dating back to 1750), I received the Sacrament of Baptism a few days after my birth. This was the beginning of the priceless happiness of my life: being a son of the holy Roman Catholic Church.
