Pope Leo's Former Classmate WARNS: "This is NOT the Catholic Church"

John-Henry Westen recounts the harrowing story of a train crash in Spain where dying victims were denied the last rites, despite priests being on the scene and ready to help. He connects this moment to a deeper issue: the shift in Church–state relations since Vatican II, which he argues has subordinated the Church’s spiritual mission to civil authority. The refusal to allow priests access to the dying echoes recent restrictions during COVID and exposes how modern interpretations of religious liberty have undermined the Church’s divine mandate. Westen urges Catholics to live in a state of grace, understand the importance of acts of perfect contrition, and stay spiritually prepared for death.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Why are so many young people today drawn to "forbidden" questions about hell, identity, feminism, and the "Jewish question"? Mark Lambert and Katherine Bennett dive deep into the topics the Church and society often avoid, and explore why silence is driving a generation toward extreme voices online.They examine how shows like Friends evangelized a generation into a consequence-free worldview—normalizing contraception, sexual immorality, and same-sex relationships while hiding the real human cost.Now, young people are waking up to the emptiness left behind and are searching for answers secular culture can’t provide.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Facing the dual crises of modern culture and Church confusion, how can Catholic parents build a thriving family? Father of 17 Conor Gallagher provides a surprising answer: order. In this profound conversation, Gallagher draws from business, philosophy, and theology to argue that the same principles that govern successful organizations, vision, unity, systems, and clear authority, are the non-negotiables for a faithful family.He reframes parenting as intentional leadership and marriage as a shared mission, offering practical steps to reduce conflict and increase joy. He urges parents to stop waiting for institutional solutions and start building strong, local "family ecosystems" rooted in faithful parishes, disciplined technology use, and intentional community. This is a hopeful, actionable guide for creating a home that forms children capable of resisting chaos and living with purpose.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Jason Jones reports that Israel has approved an illegal settlement project that threatens Shepherd’s Field in Beit Sahour, revered as the site of Christ’s Nativity announcement. At least 19 Christian families have already been displaced, and the new development could sever Bethlehem’s Christian community from Jerusalem. Jones warns this may mark the final erasure of Christianity in the West Bank, exposing decades of church destruction and settler violence. He calls on Western Catholics to abandon silence, insisting they have the power, and duty, to stop this before it’s too late.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Bishop Athanasius Schneider delivers a powerful message about the future of Catholic liturgy, warning that the Novus Ordo Mass, as it currently stands, cannot continue without serious reform. He explains how Vatican II’s ambiguities have fueled doctrinal confusion and allowed anthropocentric trends to undermine Christ-centered worship. The conversation highlights how a false synodality, modeled more on political systems than apostolic tradition, is weakening the Church’s structure and authority. Bishop Schneider calls for restoring clarity, reverence, and doctrinal fidelity, beginning with the sacred liturgy. He urges Catholics to defend the Traditional Latin Mass and reform the Novus Ordo so that it better reflects the Church’s true identity and mission. True evangelization, he argues, will only be possible once Christ is restored to the center of Catholic life.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Mother Miriam delivers a powerful warning about the spiritual danger of silence in the Catholic Church, especially from bishops who privately recognize error but refuse to speak publicly. She argues that modern calls for “unity” have become detached from truth, forming a counterfeit harmony rooted in fear, not faith. From women’s ordination to Latin Mass suppression, she frames today’s controversies as symptoms of deeper doctrinal erosion. Drawing from Scripture, tradition, and saints, she insists that fidelity requires courage, and that Peter’s words still stand: “We must obey God rather than men.” Her message is a call to prepare for suffering, to cling to truth, and to remain faithful even if the Church must go underground.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

What does Pope Leo’s own former classmate think of the Church’s current direction? In this explosive interview, Professor William A. Thomas—a longtime colleague of the pontiff—delivers a shocking indictment: “This is not the Catholic Church.” He explains how senior cardinals, bishops, and Vatican officials have deliberately engineered a crisis of faith, replacing Scripture and Tradition with Anglican politics, Rousseau’s sentimentalism, and emotional manipulation.Thomas warns that the entire “synodal” experiment is a politically manufactured system designed to silence dissent, empower ideological actors, and weaken the Church’s Christ-centered identity. He names corruption, cowardice, and ambition as the driving forces behind the collapse of doctrine and governance.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

“A predator’s paradise.” That’s how attorney Liz Yore describes the U.S. border system that has funneled over 450,000 unaccompanied minors into the shadows, many placed through Catholic Charities with no safeguards, no follow-up, and no way home. Liz Yore, a lifelong child advocate, details how children are being trafficked, abused, and lost with institutional complicity. Even more devastating, she reveals the silence of the U.S. bishops and Pope Leo, who have failed to use their moral authority despite knowing the truth. Yore connects this failure to Pope Leo’s own mishandling of an abuse case in Peru, warning of a church that has not learned its lessons. This interview is a cry for the voiceless and a demand for the Church to choose protection over politics.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=CH25_videoU.S. residents!

John-Henry Westen draws a profound and urgent parallel between the world that rejected the newborn Christ and the spiritual crisis we face today. Just as the Holy Family found no room at the inn and was met with indifference from those who should have known the Messiah, so too do faithful Catholics today face rejection, confusion, and coldness—even within the Church.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=CH25_videoU.S. residents!
