Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a report on April 15 stating that the 2018 agreement between China and the Vatican has helped the Chinese government to increase pressure on underground Catholics. It has called on Pope Leo XIV to review or repeal the agreement and to press China to end the persecution. One priest cited by HRW was denied access to banking, phone services, and passports. Furthermore, there is a de facto ban on religious practice for persons under 18.
(PerMariam) — The watchdog agency Human Rights Watch (HRW) has warned that the controversial 2018 deal between China and the Vatican has “helped the Chinese government to pressure underground Catholic communities to join the official church.” According to a detailed new report issued by HRW, the Chinese state is only increasing its persecution of underground Catholics, and is doing so aided by the framework of the 2018 deal between Beijing and the Holy See regarding the appointment of bishops. “The 2018 Holy See-China agreement on bishops has helped the Chinese government to pressure underground Catholic communities to join the official church,” HRW wrote on April 15. Image produced via AI. Having been signed in 2018 on a provisional basis, the secretive Sino-Vatican deal’s specific details remain undisclosed: a peculiar air of mystery surrounds them. It has since been renewed a number of times, most recently in 2024 for a period of four years. The agreement is believed to recognize …
The Vatican is pressing forward with the plan to reshape the Church into a more participatory, consultative body with shared decision-making across multiple levels, according to a report by katholisch.de on April 21. On April 17, the General Secretariat of the Synod convened the XVI Ordinary Council in an online session chaired by Cardinal Mario Grech. The meeting opened with a prayer led by Sister Nathalie Becquart. Council members reviewed progress on implementing the final document of the Synod on Synodality and examined ongoing work by study groups. A key next step will be a preparatory meeting at the Vatican from June 23–25, aimed at translating the Synod’s 2024 conclusions into concrete action at the continental level. This implementation phase is scheduled to run through spring 2028. Participants in June will include leaders of major continental episcopal bodies (CELAM, CCEE, and SECAM) alongside representatives of Eastern Catholic patriarchates and delegations from the bishops …More
God's Chosen People to host Middle East’s largest-ever LGBTQ festival in the Holy Land The Christians are nearly gone. Gaza is flattened. But God's Chosen People plan to build a veritable “Pride City” for the new Pride Land festival, which will transform the Judean Desert into a party destination with fifteen hotels and parties around the clock.
Tue Apr 21, 2026 - 3:09 pm EDTTue Apr 21, 2026 - 4:29 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — Israel’s official government X account announced “Pride Land,” a four-day LGBT festival set for June 1–4, 2026, at the Dead Sea—the lowest point on Earth. Billed as the largest such event ever in the Middle East, the gathering promises “nonstop celebration, community and connection” across a temporary “Pride City” in the Judean Desert, complete with 15 hotels, beach venues, all-day parties, and major performers. The perhaps ironic tagline of the post from the Israeli governments official X account—“Pride rises at the lowest place on earth”—resonated with some respondents who made reference to the depravity of the event while observing its physical proximity to the general region where cities had been destroyed by God for these exact sins. Pride rises at the lowest place on earth This June the Dead Sea becomes Pride Land, the biggest LGBTQ+ festival ever in the Middle East. Four days of nonstop …
Das neue Pride-Festival mit dem Namen Pride Land soll vom 1. bis 4. Juni die Mitte der judäischen Wüste in eine Pride-Stadt verwandeln, nicht weit von der biblischen Stätte Sodom und Gomorra am Toten Meer.
In southern Russia, there’s a small town where natural mineral water isn’t just a wellness trend — it’s part of a real medical system. Doctors recommend it. Treatments are prescribed. And for many people, it’s completely free. I traveled to Yessentuki, a quiet town in the Caucasus Mountains, to see this for myself. What I found wasn’t what I expected. Instead of chaos or decay, I discovered a place built around healing — both physical and something deeper. In this video, we explore: Natural mineral springs used for health treatments How Russia’s sanatorium system still works today Historic mud bath clinics dating back to the Russian Empire And an unexpected spiritual dimension overlooking it all This isn’t just about water.

On today's first anniversary of Francis's death, the homosexual activist James Martin SJ shared a memory from 2024. At the time, Francis had made some negative remarks about homosexual priests using the Italian slur "frociaggine" (faggotry) in a meeting with Italian bishops. A few weeks later, Francis received Fr Martin and discussed the expression. Francis said then that he knew "many holy, faithful, celibate gay priests and seminarians". When Fr Martin suggested proclaiming this publicly, Francis replied, "Oh, but I think I have. And in any event, you can say that!" According to Fr Martin, Francis asked back: "So you're saying that I can say you know many holy, faithful, celibate gay priests and seminarians?" Francis shrugged and said, "Of course. Because I do!" [In reality, the Church has suffered from many unholy, unfaithful, sexually active gay priests.] A few days later, during an audience with comedians, Fr Martin greeted Francis again. The Pope said, "Thank you for our meeting …More
That is why, when the apostate of unhappy memory, Jorge Mario Bergoglio maliciously asserted that he was nobody to judge a "gay priest"; he defied God and the Church. By stating that he did not judge an unrepentant sinner—meaning that a Pope, and thus the Church, lacks the power to judge—he thereby passed judgment upon God and the Church.
Bergoglio and Prevost have conspired with many homosexual and apostate priests. By the Way, it should be clarified that the Church teaches that no Catholic faithful may harbor an attachment to sin. Consequently, the vice of sodomy—as taught by Saint Catherine of Siena and Saint Bernardino of Siena—is not only a grave mortal sin but becomes a sin of blasphemy against the Spirit—one that has no forgiveness either in this life or in the next—when the person who has fallen into this vice, instead of repenting, creates a new homosexual pseudo-identity contrary to the biological sexual nature bestowed by God. Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori also taught that the sin of priests is a sin of malice, equivalent to the sin of the apostate angels who rebelled against God—a sin that constitutes blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. For this reason, Scripture teaches that the apostate is like a dog that eats its own vomit or a pig that wallows in the mud, and that it is very difficult—indeed, almost …More
Real Women of Canadahas posted another timely article to better understand the current and divided state of Canada. It's titled, " The Influence of Feminism in Canada." It serves to explain the economic and moral decline of Canada. And why over one trillion dollars in investments have left Canada during the last decade. It was former PM Just Trudeau who said that Canada was a post-nation state with no core values. He admired China. He also defined himself as a staunch, progressive, look-at-me male feminist. The lesson here to the rest of the world: don't be Canada. We thank Real Women of Canada and post the article with permission. Over the past several generations, Canada has greatly changed, in no small part, due to the increasing influence of feminism in many institutions and organizations. REAL Women is always grateful for competent and honest leaders regardless of their gender. This is in extremely short supply, especially at the federal level. There are some outstanding examples …

"...Sudden changes in global situations, which up to now seemed like trifle unrest, will now emerge as all out wars. Wars will lead to shortage of food. Democracy will diminish quickly and wicked dictatorships will rise. These dictatorships will, however, be very careful how they are perceived. They will come as peaceful negotiators and as “saviours.” In return for feeding your mouths they will control your possessions, which will then become theirs. You will have to get permission to feed your families. In order to travel you will need a special form of identification and will be asked to accept the mark – the mark of the beast..."

“When peace among nations becomes the ultimate end of religion, a conceptual leap is made: the primacy of truth is surpassed… religions are reduced to geopolitical instruments.”
Prevost Has Declared War on Christianity Something extraordinary has happened, and most Christians missed it because it was wrapped in the language of love. Over the span of eleven days, from Easter Sunday through an eleven-day tour of Africa, Pope Leo XIV issued a series of public statements that, taken together, constitute the most comprehensive assault on Biblical Christianity ever launched from inside the institutional church. He did not do it with a sword. He did it with a smile, a diplomatic handshake, and language so carefully crafted that millions of Catholics watched it happen and applauded. This is a documentation of that assault. Every claim is sourced from the Pope’s own words, published on the Vatican’s own website, and measured against the Bible the Vatican claims to uphold.
