The real woman won silver, while the would-be one took the gold. And if there is a silver lining in the debacle of William ‘Lia’ Thomas – the male swimmer who identifies as a woman, and who crushed the real female swimmers against whom he competed – it’s that the absurdity of all this is[…]
Franz Biebl (1906 – 2001) was a contemporary German composer, known for his choral ensemble works, the best known of which is his Ave Maria (Angelus Domini), published just in time for Mary’s month of May in 1959.

The Vatican has just reiterated its support for the vaccine, or, I should say, vaccines, with the Holy Father’s claim that receiving the inoculation, without offering any distinctions, is an ‘act of love…’.

The full text of the prayer of consecration for this Friday, the Solemnity of the Annunciation, has been released by the Vatican and, as feared, there is already a priori controversy. The text consecrates humanity to the Immaculate Heart, including Ukraine and Russia: Therefore, Mother of God and our Mother, to your Immaculate Heart we[…]
One of the most loved figures within Christianity is certainly St Joseph, whose silence makes him more popular. Joseph preached and convinced by his total trust and obedient faith more than his words alone, which often lead to disarray. Personally speaking I never had a particular devotion to St Joseph.
