Canada's 'Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations' has confirmed it has spent C$7.9 million (!) to uncover the "heartbreaking truth" of "unmarked graves" at the former Catholic residential school for Indians in Kamloops.
What everybody knew from the start: Not a single "mass grave" was found, despite a gigantic media propaganda storm by the oligarchs claiming their existence and even bringing Francis to his knees. It was all a hoax.
Also interesting: There has been no public disclosure of how the funds were used to find the non-existent mass graves, reports WesternStandard.news (9 May).
The announcement of the discovery of 215 graves of children [all died over a long period of time of natural causes] at the Kamloops Residential School site in 2021 by the 'First Nation', a PR organisation for Canadian Indians, caused an international outcry, including an 'apology' from Francis.
In reality, the Church did a heroic job in very difficult conditions to bring education and civilisation to …badan

"We see in some of the faithful a certain confusion in the liturgy," Bishop Aurelio García Macías, undersecretary of the Dicastery for the Liturgy, told the diocese of Malaga, Spain, writes InfoVaticana.com (1 May).
Mgr. García has been in his current position since May 2021. He previously worked for Cardinal Sarah in the same dicastery.
By "in some of the faithful" he must have meant the overwhelming majority of the faithful, and by "a certain confusion" the ongoing dissolution of the liturgy, which is no longer even Protestant, but secularised and pagan.
He blames an "excess of individualism" that "prevails in today's society" for the fact that "everyone can decide what they like in the liturgy". It is an old trick of the bishops to blame "society" for their own mistakes.
"In the face of the 'I', the Pope asks us for the 'we' of the community," García insists, while Francis rules the Vatican alone and unaccountable to anyone but his private whims.
Here is another pearl of wisdom straight …badan

Tucho Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Dissolution of the Faith, refers to John Paul II in "Dignitas Infinita", but misrepresents him.
In DI 39, Tucho promotes pacifism and offers the following quotation from John Paul II's encyclical 'Redemptor hominis' (1979). "In the name of God and in the name of man: Do not kill! Do not prepare destruction and extermination for people! Think of your brothers and sisters who suffer hunger and misery! Respect the dignity and freedom of every human being! (RH 16)"
Tucho implies that John Paul II always considered killing in war to be a violation of the fifth commandment: "Thou shalt not kill". But this is not true. John Paul II also adds in the quoted passage (RH 16) that "modern weapons and means of destruction" can be used in wars to "defend just rights and sovereignty".

On 3 April 2024 a meeting took place between Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, a delegation of Catholic bishops and the Protestants of Ukraine.
Zelensky congratulated the bishops and Protestants on Easter and wished Ukraine success in its war against Russia. On the agenda was the issue of priests being drafted into the army.
The following diocesan bishops were present at the meeting: Pavlo Honcharuk, 46 (Kharkov-Zaporozhye), Stanislav Shirokoradiuk, 67 (Odessa-Simferopol), Leon Dubravski, 74 (Kamianets-Podilskyi), Mykola Luchok, 50 (Mukachevo), Vitaly Kryvytskyi, 51 (Kiev-Zhytomyr), Vitaly Skomarovskyi, 60 (Lutsk).
Mgr. Kryvytskyi (Kiev-Zhytomyr) stressed that the mobilisation of parish priests or humanitarian workers would create major problems.
Auxiliary Bishop Oleksandr Yazlovetskyi (Kiev-Zhytomyr), President of Caritas-Spes, stressed that priests will also have to join the fight when the new law on mobilisation comes into force on 18 May.
All religious denominations will be …badan

Monsignor Gustavo García-Siller, 67, the Mexican-born Archbishop of San Antonio, Texas, USA, has criticised the Israeli war in Gaza in several messages on Twitter.com (7 May).
He urged the "Jewish brothers and sisters" to "stop killing Palestinians. STOP!" [However, this war has nothing to do with the "Jewish brothers and sisters", but with a right-wing regime that many Jews oppose].
He added: "Palestinians are dying. Do we care?"
After the Archbishop was accused of "anti-Semitism", his spokesman distanced himself from the remarks: "'The Twitter account of Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller is his personal account; it is not the official account of the Archdiocese of San Antonio. Archbishop Gustavo urges prayers for peace in the Middle East," Jordan McMorrough, director of communications for the Archdiocese of San Antonio, told PillarCatholic.com (9 May).
The Israeli regime, which has occupied the Gaza Strip since 1967, has killed at least 34,789 Gazans, including 14,500 children, since …badan

Australia's Bishops have approved a liturgy that includes elements of Aboriginal language and culture.
A motion was passed at the plenary meeting of the Australian Bishops' Conference in Sydney on Tuesday. It is called the "Mass of the Land of the Holy Spirit - Missa Terrae Spiritus Sancti".
The rite will now be submitted to the Dicastery for Divine Worship for official approval by the Vatican, which approves everything that is not Catholic.
The Eucharist has been used in the Diocese of Broome for over 50 years with very mediocre results. It is presided over in several local languages, and was approved in 1973 as a 'culturally adapted' liturgy 'ad experimentum' [that is, for ever].
A local Aboriginal Council described the rite as "a distinctive Mass that beautifully blends Catholic tradition with Aboriginal culture to create a unique celebration of faith [in what?] that has served the diocese for over five decades".
"It symbolises a bridge that connects our spiritual beliefs with the …badan

St. Patrick's Church in Belfast, Ireland, was turned into a cinema on 7 May to show the film "Young Frankenstein", an American parody of the classic horror film genre with no pretence of serious content.
The occasion was the 50th anniversary of the film. The £10-a-seat event was sold out. It is officially forbidden to hold chargeable events in churches.
The organisers said: "We can't think of a better venue than the truly gothic St Patrick's Church for this celebration of one of the funniest and most cinematically beautiful films of all time!"
No one disputes that a parody is perfectly suited to a church that makes itself a parody of the Church.

The decadent Vatican is teaming up with the 'Fratelli Tutti Foundation' to host the second 'World Meeting on Human Fraternity' (May 10-11).
Knowing that nobody is interested in this, the Vatican turns the event into a concert hoping to attract people in this way. Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, archpriest of St Peter's, announced the programme at a press conference on 7 May. According to the Fratelli Tutti Foundation, this 2024 event follows on from the supposed "success of last year".
In reality, that first meeting, which took place in June 2023, featured the homosexual dancer Roberto Bolle and was an embarrassing flop in terms of attendance (pictures).
Speakers in 2024 include winners of the discredited Nobel Peace Prize, political activists, economist Jeffrey Sachs and Nelson Mandela's wife Graca Machel Mandela. Francis will lead an event with children in the Vatican's new Synod Hall.
The closing concert on the steps of St Peter's on 11 May will feature Italian composer Giovanni Allevi, …badan

Mathias Fuchs, a lay pastoral assistant who dresses like a pseudo-priest, presided over a "heavy metal service" on 3 May at St Martin's Church in Bruchsal, Archdiocese of Freiburg, Germany.
The archdiocese supported the project morally and financially. Freiburg is the archdiocese where Archbishop Georg Gänswein, who was expelled from Rome, resides.
Fuchs explained on the archdiocese's social media account that his show was "not a concert", but a church service with music. This includes singing along, clapping, dancing and 'headbanging'.
According to Fuchs, God is "where it is loud, where people are happy, where they are together". The heavy metal noise was provided by the local band 'Metal GodZ' [a blasphemy?].

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
