In 1978, the Vatican issued guidelines for discerning the veracity of visions and revelations.

Aware of[…]
‘Father, may they be one in us, as you are in me and I am in you, so that the world may believe it was you who sent me. I have given them the glory you gave me, that they may be one as we are one’ (Jn. 17:2-3). ⧾ Our Gospel text today –[…]

There are some theoretically good uses of, say, thermonuclear bombs – see the final scene in Armageddon, but be sure not to watch the full film. Condoms could make some heavy-duty water balloons.

No founder of any other world religion ever performed miracles, nor did any disciple of such founders ever claim that such power was possessed by the founder. Abraham, whose legacy of belief in one God includes the Jewish, Christian,[…]
May 8th is the traditional feast day of Our Lady of Pompeii, which reminds us of the power of the Marian prayer of the Rosary, through which the Lord turned a city given to paganism and sin into a city of grace and forgiveness, thanks to the protection of Mary, Our Lady of the Holy[…]
