Book review: “The Devil in Rome” by Rachel Mastrogiacomo - Pax Orbis

This account by Rachel Mastrogiacomo of her experience as a survivor of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) horrifies and mystifies, but it also points to the ultimate triumph of good over evil.
by Kathy Clubb

Rachel Mastrogiacomo’s book, The Devil in Rome, tells the story of her time in Rome studying, whilst also being groomed by a diabolical sexual predator who was a Catholic priest. Her tormentor was later to plead guilty to felony sex charges, given 10 years’ probation and then laicised.
The foreword is by Janet Smith, an American academic who has helped support Mrs. Mastrogiacomo throughout her journey back to wholeness. Ms. Smith is also one of those who worked to ensure that Rachel’s story was made known within and without the Church. One notable thing about Ms. Smith’s contribution is her admission that prior to learning of Mrs. Mastrogiacomo’s experience, she didn’t take the activity of satan in the world very seriously; this is surprising for a highly-qualified philosopher and …

Vatican Sponsors Subversion of the Faith: The report of the Synod’s study group number 9 attempts to dismiss Catholic teaching on the inherent immorality of homosexual acts "by stigmatizing that teaching as the expression of an obsolete ‘paradigm’ that no longer can be relied upon to communicate God’s will to His people," wrote Rev. Gerald Murray in TheCatholicThing.org: "This Vatican-sponsored destructive subversion must come to an end now."

‘Synodal Shepherds’ Attack the Sheep - The Catholic Thing

The Catholic Church is accustomed to attacks upon her teaching. The history of heresy over the centuries reveals the never-ending efforts of those who seek to replace Catholic doctrine with various errors. What the Church has only recently become accustomed to is attacks upon her teaching coming from some of her shepherds, especially from the never-ending pronouncements emanating from the office of the Synod of Bishops.
The latest imposition of the Synod is the recently published full-fledged endorsement of the homosexual lifestyle in the
Final Report of Study Group Number 9 “Theological Criteria and Synodal Methodologies for Shared Discernment of Emerging Doctrinal, Pastoral, and Ethical Issues.”
This report attempts to dismiss Catholic teaching on the inherent immorality of homosexual acts – and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination – by stigmatizing that teaching as the expression of an obsolete “paradigm” that no longer can be relied upon to communicate God’s will …

Israel is taking out the last remaining residential towers in Gaza to make it impossible for the remaining Palestinians to live there and turning them into refugees.

One of the most terrifying attacks carried out by Israel, where it completely destroyed the Mashteha Tower within a matter of seconds, as it is considered one of the largest and most beautiful towers in Gaza, and houses thousands of families living in it, despite the thousands of tents that were located on every side of this tower, aircraft launched no less than 6 deadly missiles that resulted in thousands of lethal shrapnel fragments, which led to the destruction of thousands of tents that were the only shelter for the families. This is not just a war, this is genocide.

It is fake because the intent is to show the evil Jews destroying the housing for good Palestinian people,the building was obviously in need of demolition to make the area safe even for the Arabs. I am no friend of the Jew nor am I his enemy , but I think it is unfair that so many have a knee jerk reaction and blame nearly everything on Zionism etc. the real problem in the world is so many turning their backs to God regardless of race. Is Biden,Harris Pelosi really any better than the Netin what ever his name is? The scariest thing in this world today is a pope and hierarchy in the Catholic Church who are far from being Catholic.

On Friday, Leo XIV. visited Naples Cathedral. Shortly before his arrival, the blood of Saint Januarius reportedly liquefied off-schedule. The miracle traditionally occurs three times a year and has also been linked to earlier papal visits, including that of Pius IX in 1848. During visits by John Paul II in 1979 and Benedict XVI in 2007, the miracle did not occur. Francis witnessed a partial liquefaction in 2015.

Statement from Claire Elyse Brosseau on her decision to seek emergency relief to receive MAID | Dying With Dignity Canada

Toronto, Monday, May 4, 2026… My name is Claire Brosseau. I am the applicant in a constitutional challenge against the Government of Canada. I have been diagnosed with a severe form of bipolar I disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, among other mental disorders. Over the past three decades, I have tried a wide variety of medications and treatments for my mental illness. Despite these efforts, my mental illness just continues to get worse. I have reached the limit of my ability to live like this — in a state of unrelenting suffering.
Current MAID law discriminates against people like me. In anticipation of my litigation, I was assessed and found eligible for MAID, but I cannot access this legal medical service just because my illness is a mental illness. If my suffering were from a physical condition, I could be eligible for MAID. They are drawing a distinction that is stigmatizing, paternalistic and without any valid justification. That is discrimination.

On 25 March, Pakistan’s Federal Constitutional Court ruled that the 13-year-old Christian girl Maria Shabaz should be returned to the man accused of abducting and forcibly marrying her. Maria was reportedly abducted in July 2025 when she was 12 years old, forcibly converted to Islam, and married to a 30-year-old man. The legal marriage age in Punjab is 18. In recent weeks, three Catholic bishops and human rights organisations have issued statements urging the authorities to review the ruling.

Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar announced on Easter Sunday, April 5, that the government had constituted a committee to examine the March 25 judgment of the Federal Constitutional Court validating the marriage of 13-year-old Maria Shahbaz to 30-year-old Shaheryar Ahmad.

Digging into denialism: Emily Enns wins the 2026 Peter Mansbridge Investigative Writing Award

The Master of Journalism student earned the award for investigating the roots of residential school denialism and highlighting Indigenous resilience through on-the-ground reporting in Kamloops, B.C.
When Emily Enns began exploring a story about the replacement of existing Canadian street names with Indigenous ones for her second-year
Master of Journalism (MJ) investigative journalism project, she did not expect it to lead her into one of the nation’s more contentious historical debates.
While researching, she came across an online rant opposing street-name changes in Winnipeg. What surprised her was not the content but that it was written by a professor at her alma mater, the University of Manitoba (UM). Curious, she began looking more closely at the professor’s work, which led her to writings that downplayed the impact of the residential school system.
Enns soon discovered that some of the most visible disseminators of residential school denialism were not fringe commentators but …

Cardinal Gerhard Müller on “fraudulent and blasphemous Blessings”:
“The heretical relativization of natural and sacramental marriage is openly welcomed,” Cardinal Müller told PerMariam.com regarding the final report of the Vatican's synodal study group on homosexuality.
“They do not openly deny the revealed truths. But they ignore them and build their own house of a comfortable and worldly-conforming Christianity alongside them.”
Cardinal Müller also stated: “The private or even paraliturgical blessing of same-sex and opposite-sex couples in irregular relationships is based on the heretical denial of the revealed truth that God created human beings as man and woman.”
Cardinal Müller further described such blessings as “fraudulent and blasphemous blessings.”

Cardinal Müller: Synod's homosexuality report aids ‘heretical relativization’ of marriage

Cardinal Müller: Synod's homosexuality report leads to ‘heretical relativization’ of marriage
The prominent German cardinal roundly slated the latest text to emerge from the Synod, as well as any proposals for blessing of same-sex unions.
VATICAN CITY (
PerMariam) — Cardinal Gerhard Müller has issued a blistering critique of the latest study group report from the Synod on Synodality and its platforming of anti-Catholic, pro-homosexual ideology.
The great welcome form LGBT advocates to the Synod Study Group 9’s recent report, is – says Cdl. Müller – greatly revealing. The report’s text highlights how “the heretical relativization of natural and sacramental marriage is openly welcomed.”
Such a move, adds the former prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, “is portrayed as the first step toward the recognition of LGBT ideology, which advocates nothing other than a materialistic view of humanity without God, the Creator, Redeemer, and Perfecter of humankind.”

I find it to be a subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality. And this is a really, really crucial moment for the church because. The program of subversion in plain sight of Catholic teaching on the immoral nature of homosexual activity and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination, this is a number one target for some people in the church.

Polish Bishop Reprimands Priest for Criticizing Pro-Homosexual Cardinal

The Polish priest Beniamin Sęktas (ordained in 2020) from the Diocese of Drohiczyn in eastern Poland publicly called for the resignation of Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, 62, of Krakow.
Pope Leo XIV had promoted the pro-homosexual Cardinal Ryś from Łódź to Krakow in November 2025.
In an open letter published in mid-December 2025, Rev. Sęktas asked the Cardinal to resign. He called Cardinal Ryś a “public collaborator of rainbow Catholics.”
Furthermore, Rev. Sęktas noted that Cardinal Ryś promotes extraordinary lay ministers to distribute Communion.
The letter included statements such as:
“You continue to shock and scandalize many Catholics”
“the cynical face of an activist seeking the applause of opinion-forming elites”
Bishop Henryk Sawczuk of Drohiczyn summoned Rev. Sęktas and reprimanded him. On May 4, the Diocese of Drohiczyn published a statement saying that the priest had violated the media guidelines adopted by the Polish Bishops’ Conference in 2023.
The bishop also forbade him from …Дукха

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he told Pope Leo XIV on May 7 that Iran poses “a danger to the world, which is largely recognized.” He also described the Vatican meeting as “very cordial and important,” downplaying suggestions of animosity between the US and the Holy See.

Sec Marco Rubio: "I expressed to them on the situation with Iran, expressed our point of view about why this was an important and the danger that Iran posed us to the world, which is largely recognized." "The Holy Father is a spiritual leader, he's the first and foremost, that's his role to play, and obviously the church has always interacted on behalf of a mission for peace and a respect for all of humanity." "But at the end, it was very cordial and important meeting, and it's important to share our points of view and an explanation and an understanding of where we're coming from, and I thought it was very positive."

Every Grace Flows Through Mary’s Hands
The feast of Our Lady the Mediatrix of all graces celebrates the belief that every grace given by God to the world, whether to individuals or the church, is mediated through Mary. While Jesus is the sole mediator between God and man, Mary’s mediation is secondary but important, as she cooperates perfectly with God’s will. This belief, though sometimes misunderstood, is a beautiful truth that highlights God’s humility and the importance of Mary as our spiritual mother.
