EU Court and Poland's Constitutional Tribunal Clash Over Homosex “Marriages”

Poland's Constitutional Tribunal has ruled that homosex “marriages” performed abroad cannot be entered into the country's civil registry. Doing so would violate Article 18 of the Polish Constitution, which defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman.
The July 28 ruling comes after a series of conflicting legal decisions.
In November 2025, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) held that Poland must recognize homosex marriages performed in other EU member states where necessary to protect EU free movement rights.
In March, Poland's Supreme Administrative Court applied that judgment, and the government began preparing regulations to implement it.
The Constitutional Tribunal has now reached the opposite conclusion, holding that foreign marriage certificates may only be transcribed if they meet the constitutional definition of marriage.
The court said any change would require an amendment to the Constitution and legislation passed by Parliament - not administrative action. …Ibindi

"Leo XIV Will Not Allow the Mass in the Roman Rite" - Cardinal Roche

"Pope Leo XIV is not going to change Traditionis Custodes, and he is not going back to Summorum Pontificum", Cardinal Arthur Roche, Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship, told TheTablet.co.uk on July 29.
Regarding the Novus Ordo, he claimed that the Church wanted to be "more missionary": "The abundant diet of Scripture that is now given through the celebration of the Mass and the sacraments is something that wasn’t available to use before, but it is now."
He acknowledged the Novus Ordo's emphasis that "the baptised people are a priestly people" and that "they too are celebrating with the priest".

Pius V says differently...I'll just follow what he said, thanks.

Our Anglican "brethren" at Wells Cathedral (which was Catholic until the time of Henry VIII) have decided to stage an exhibition of "Mythical Creatures," based on a 17th-century book held in their library. Particularly striking is a fifteen-meter-long dragon—sporting rainbow colors—that soars above the few elderly congregants, baring its menacing claws at them. It serves as a true parable of what awaits us Catholics if we remain passive in the face of the brazen advance of the hierarchical "Pink Lobby."
(It is astonishing to see the degree of confusion among some of the faithful—such as the person who wrote on a tag: "Dear dragon: always be kind and generous to entire human kind." As if we didn't know what the dragon symbolizes!)

Irish Church Shrinks: Leo XIV De Facto Merges Two Dioceses

Today, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Gerard Nash, 67, as Bishop of Ossory while he remains also Bishop of Ferns. The pope united two neighboring Irish dioceses in persona episcopi.
Under this arrangement, both dioceses retain for now their separate legal identities but are entrusted to the same bishop.
Bishop Nash has led the Diocese of Ferns since 2021 and has served as Apostolic Administrator of Ossory since January 2026. Together, the two dioceses serve less than 200,000 Catholics.
The appointment marks another step in the ongoing restructuring of the shrinking Church in Ireland. The policy of diocesan consolidation is clearly expanding beyond western Ireland
While three previous in persona episcopi unions took place within the Ecclesiastical Province of Tuam in western Ireland, the union of Ferns and Ossory is the first outside that province.

Both Slaves and Slaveowners' - Leo XIV on Family History

Pope Leo XIV talked on July 29 with Tom Llamas (NBC) about his heritage and what it means to be the first pope from the US.
“First of all, just to clarify, I think of myself more as the pope who happens to be American, not to belittle what it means to be American”, Leo XIV said.
Leo XIV loves about America “the sense of freedom, the sense of opportunity, the sense of having invited for generations people from around the world to be part of America.”
Discussing his family's heritage, he said, “I come from a family where my grandparents were immigrants. On my mother’s side, we have people who were both slaves and slave owners.”
Llamas also asked when the pope will visit the United States. “In the next couple of years,” Leo answered.
The interview was Leo XIV's first interview with a US television journalist, and it aired alongside the Concert for Peace, marking the 800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi's death, featuring Andrea Bocelli and a 200-child interfaith choir from conflict-…Ibindi

Czech Bishop: "Synodality Only Possible with Novus Ordo"

Society has a thirst for transcendence, but “the old instruments have already fulfilled their purpose and no longer meet the needs of today's people". This claims Bishop Tomáš Holub, 58, of Plzeň, Czech Republic, in a lengthy article about "Synodality and the Novus Ordo Missae" on 21 July on the blog Come se non, run by the Italian theologian Andrea Grillo. Grillo is an opponent of the Roman rite and is considered an influencer of Traditionis Custodes.
According to Bishop Holub, a missionary outlook must be rooted in synodality: "Synodality is not merely a technique of communication, but a way of living the faith... The point is not to hold a synod, but to become a synod."
The Czech bishop goes on that the Novus Ordo provides the appropriate expression of the Church's synodal identity:
"The Novus Ordo makes it possible for this synodality to be applied in the liturgical sphere. Otherwise, this would be very difficult, since the Vetus Ordo is the expression of a Tridentine vision of the …Ibindi

“Homosexual Acts Are Particularly Detestable in God’s Sight”: Cardinal Joseph Zen, 94, of Hong Kong wrote on his blog on July 27 about the evil forces that tempt us, including the inclinations of the flesh. “Of course, ethics and morality aren't just about the Sixth and Ninth Commandments, but sins of this kind are the easiest to become addicted to. Especially those LGBTQ sins - they utterly violate the Creator's plan for humanity.” Cardinal Zen added that homosexual acts are “not only called sin in the Bible but are an Abomination (particularly detestable) in God's sight.” He also writes: “The merciful God also rained down fire to destroy Sodom.”

Cardinal Zen: ‘Protection’ of the family a ‘primary mission’ for Church today

Joseph Cardinal Zen has urged Catholics to make protecting the family a “primary mission” in pastoral work, in order to fight back against a society that has lost an understanding of the “meaning of life”. In an essay published today on his blog, Cdl. Zen offered a commentary both on scripture and on the state of the Church in the world today. Such is his regular style, linking the sacred texts to a specific message, and this latest was no exception as he dwelled on the parable of the pearl of great price.

Cardinal Roche Says Pope Leo IS NOT Changing Latin Mass Restrictions

Cardinal Arthur Roche has stated that Pope Leo has no intention of changing Pope Francis’ restrictions on the traditional liturgy. In a newly published interview with The Tablet, Cdl. Roche addressed the topic of the liturgy, dampening speculation that Leo XIV would reverse course on the restrictions imposed by his predecessor. In Roche’s mind the situation was clear: “No, Pope Leo is not going to change Traditionis Custodes, and he’s not going back to Summorum Pontificum.” The traditional Mass, he said, is “a very complex area” but also “a very important area because the Eucharist is the sacrament of unity: it’s the place where we should all be able to be together to celebrate Mass.” Continue reading at the Catholic Herald Post Views: 2

Archbishop Sample: FSSPX Has "Become Something Else" After Episcopal Consecrations

Conservative Archbishop Alexander K. Sample of Portland, Oregon attacked in an in-house interview on Youtube.com on July 28 the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX). Main quotes.
• "The FSSPX's recent consecration of bishops without a papal mandate takes the situation to a whole new level. They are now the second time bishops have been consecrated."
• "They see themselves as the faithful remnant, as though the rest of the Church is wrong and they alone are right. Folks, please don't be in that position."
• "I don't attribute any ill will to these folks. They're sincere in wanting to preserve tradition and be faithful Catholics. But they have in fact become something else now, especially in light of these recent consecrations."
• "They still mention the Pope in the Eucharistic Prayer, but it's just words. It's not a real communion. They give lip service."

Putin ally warns Russia will make life in the UK 'unbearable' under Andy Burnham and threatens Britain with nuclear tidal wave destruction

A top Kremlin official has openly declared that the Putin regime is seeking to foment 'economic crises,' social dislocation and rubbish strikes in the UK, to make life in Britain 'as unbearable as possible.' Dmitry Medvedev, number two to the dictator on Russia's security council, also threatened use of the new nuclear underwater drone Poseidon, which Moscow claims is capable of triggering radioactive tidal waves. The sinister Russian agenda comes as new premier Andy Burnham will today host Volodymyr Zelensky as his first foreign visitor, with Britain stepping up military aid to Ukraine. 'The new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Burnham, declared his unconditional support for Ukraine,' said Medvedev, a former Russian president and premier. 'There's nothing new here, of course. What's important is that our task is to continue to do everything we can to make life on this still-floating island as unbearable as possible.

Every time they put sanctions on Russia, what is it up to now? Over 40,000 Sanctions? It was the US and Europe who paid the heavy price. When they blew up Norstream, Russia found another oil field. When trump stole two oil tankers from Russia, Russia found another oil field. When they put all those sanctions on Russia and they stole their money, Russia's GDP rose to 3rd or fourth place. And the list goes on and on.
So, let the bullies all gather and plot and plan to destroy Russia. In the end it will be Russia who will the winner in many more ways.

Washington Cardinal "Allows" Female Preaching - Report

Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington D.C. authorised monthly lay "commentary" during the Eucharist at the Jesuit parish of Holy Trinity in Georgetown, according to BigModernism.Substack.com (July 28).
The blog published a letter dated 4 February 2026 and signed by Fr James Casciotti, SJ. The letter responds to concerns raised by a correspondent about the parish's liturgical practices.
Fr Casciotti addresses several issues, including chatting until just before the Eucharist.
The key passage states: "You should know that the Cardinal has given permission for lay commentary once a month at Holy Trinity [...]".
The letter does not identify the cardinal by name. In February 2026, Cardinal Robert McElroy was Archbishop of Washington, having been appointed in January 2025 and installed in March 2025.
Separately, the blog cites a firsthand account from a reader alleging that the practice involved a woman delivering what functioned as the homily during Mass under the name "commentary." According …Ibindi

In a statement responding to controversy concerning the Divine Playhouse arts venue in Sydney’s CBD, the archbishop said freedom of speech includes not only the right to create and perform, but also “the right, and at times the responsibility, to say plainly when something is inappropriate, offensive, wrong”.
The comments come after public debate about Divine Playhouse, a temporary arts venue established in a deconsecrated former Catholic Church in Sydney.
