Inside the temple, a Jain pagan "priest" presented a metal tray bearing burning oil lamps in what appears to be Aarti, a devotional ritual in which light is waved before a sacred image or idol.

(LifeSiteNews) — I had a strong conviction about a week ago that the center had shifted. That the old normal for Catholics was no longer the norm, or that John Q Catholic was now in a very different place from his co-religionists from where he was even only 20 years ago.
Only a few years ago it would have been unthinkable that one of the best-known, wealthiest, and most intellectual conservative Catholic groups in the U.S. would have Fr. James Martin, SJ, lead a Eucharistic procession through Manhattan. Martin, the best-known promoter of the LGBT heresy in the world; Martin, denounced by cardinals and bishops as a heretic; Martin, who hopes Catholic “married” “husbands” will one day be able to kiss at …

Leo XIV-appointed Spanish Bishop José Antonio Satué sent a supportive message to the 15th gathering of homosexual Christians in Chipiona, Spain, on October 9–11: “You have much to contribute to the Church.”
Leo XIV appointed Satué Bishop of Málaga in June 2025 despite his public record as homosexualist. Satué described homosex "blessings" as “a step forward”.
The homosex gathering, organized by PADIS Canarias (Pastoral para la Diversidad Sexual en Canarias), attracted just over 100 participants.
Monsignor Satué wrote them that everyone deserves to be heard, welcomed, and treated with dignity. He claimed that homosexuals suffered within the Church and urged that it not be trivialized.
At the meeting, participants agreed to establish a nationwide network of homosexual Christian groups, extending into Portugal. They also intend to prepare a document outlining their proposals for bishops, possibly by the end of 2026. They called for pastoral ministry developed “with” homosexuals rather than …

Vatican Cardinal Koovakad announces that “every religion is bound to God and to peace”.
Representatives of nine world religions gathered at Westminster Cathedral Hall in London on 17 October to sign a pledge to work together for peace based on [the buzzword] “human dignity”.
Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, Prefect of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, spoke about how the Church has worked for 40 years to keep the spirit of Assisi alive through interreligious dialogue and collaboration.
He said: “Among the various etymologies of the word ‘religion,’ the one perhaps closest to us is religare – ‘to bind.’ Every religion, in its most literal and central sense, is bound to the Divine or to a Transcendental reality. Consequently, it is bound to the characteristics of peace, love, and justice. These form the core virtues of every religion and the very foundations of our faiths.”
“Prayer in any religion unites in fellowship to ‘one God and Father of all’”
On Sunday, Cardinal Koovakad …

Leo XIV-appointed Missio President doubles down: Women called to priesthood.
Pope Leo XIV appointed Irish Sister Mary Teresa Barron on October 8, as president of the Pontifical Mission Societies (Missio) and adjunct secretary of the Vatican's Dicastery for Evangelization.
On October 19, she told EWTNNews.com: “Who am I to say whether the door is open or closed to women priests?”
“Women today may hear the call to priesthood,” she said. “So for me, itʼs how do we within Church facilitate that discernment?”
Sister Barron wants the Church to accompany women who feel "called to the priesthood", “What do we do as a Church to accompany that discernment to see if, yes, this is what the Spirit is calling the entire Church to or not at this point?” she asked.
Barron cited the October 2024 Synod on Synodality's final document: “What comes from the Holy Spirit cannot be stopped.”
“So I think even though … there have been moments where we’ve been told we canʼt talk about this at all, itʼs over … it …

Chilean Theologian praises Communion for practicing Homosexuals
Among the newly appointed members is Claudia Leal Luna, a Chilean theologian and professor at the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences in Rome.
She is known for questioning the Church's teaching on homosexuality.
In March 2021, following a declaration by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith prohibiting blessings of same-sex unions, Leal Luna attacked the document in an interview with 'Radio Universidad de Chile'.
Luna criticized the Vatican's distinction between blessing homosexual individuals and blessing …

Does a Vatican Dicastery doubt that FSSPX Marriage faculties have been revoked?
The Vatican’s Dicastery for Legislative Texts issued a clarification on August 7, concerning marriages within the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX), according to Guy Lapierre writing on RenaissanceCatholique.fr on October 15.
Lapierre writes about a response from the Dicastery for Legislative Texts without naming the addressee or context.
The texts states:
“The Explanatory Note published on July 2, 2026, by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith states that marriages witnessed by sacred ministers of the Priestly Society of St. Pius X are invalid. However, it does not appear from the published text that such a declaration was approved by the Roman Pontiff with the intention of revoking or derogating from the provisions contained in the Letter of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei of March 27, 2017.”
The mentioned letter of 2017 refers to Franics’ permissions for marriages celebrated by FSSPX …
