As the crisis in the Church continues on, there are those traditional Catholics who have succumbed to the temptation of sedevacantism, that is, the belief there has been no valid pope since the death of Pius XII. Sedevcantism presents a twofold danger, both intellectual and spiritual. On the intellectual level, sedevacantism reveals itself to be an imprudent position, even in the face of grave concerns over the direction of the Church. On the spiritual level, it opens the door to despair.
Sammen med Johan Wizan kaster Krimiland et blik på forbindelserne mellem de tyske nazister og pave Pius XII. Hvilke hemmelige forhandlinger foregik mellem Adolf Hitler og paven op til og under Anden Verdenskrig? Og hvor meget vidste man om holocaust i de øverste lag i den katolske kirke?

"Habemus Papam. We have a new pope!"Chuck Rocha and resident Catholic expert Mike Madrid unpack the whirlwind election of our first American Pope—Pope Leo XIV—and explore what his ascendancy means for Latino culture, faith, and politics. From the storied rituals of white and black smoke in the Sistine Chapel to the surprising influence of betting markets on a secretive conclave, Mike sheds light on the historical parallels between Pope Leo's rapid three-round election and that of Pius XII in 1939. Together, they examine how the “Catholic imagination” shapes Latino identity, the resurgence of young men embracing traditional Catholicism, and why Latino women are charting divergent spiritual paths.Also Chuck recounts his electrifying appearance at the Milken Institute's marquee policy forum in Los Angeles.If you're looking for a fast-paced, thought-provoking ride through faith, policy, and the future of the Latino Vote, you've come to the right place!-Recorded May 8, 2025.-Chuck got the quote of the day at the Milken Institute Global Conference 2025.

Už v horizonte hodín sa vo Vatikáne začne udalosť, na ktorú je namierená pozornosť sveta. 133 kardinálov voliteľov vstúpi do slávnej Sixtínskej kaplnky, aby tam pod Michelangelovými freskami a pohľadom Stvoriteľa – ako hovoria – vybrali nového nástupcu sv. Petra, alebo námestníka Kristovho. Pôjde o 267. pápeža. Voľba – pre svoju rezervovanosť opradená aj tajomstvom. A nad porušením mlčanlivosti pod prísahou visí exkomunikácia laetae sententiae. Konkláve, z ktorého vyjde nástupca zomrelého pápeža Františka. Aké bolo kedysi a aké bude v nasledujúcich dňoch? Téma pre Marcela Šefčíka, ktorý o ňom napísal knihu. Analýze pritom podrobil konkláve 20. a 21. storočia. Podcast pripravil Jaroslav Barborák.

On todays Show Sarah leads us in a discussion on Pope Pius XII's actions during World War II. Pius XII, born Eugenio Pacelli, was known for his diplomatic skills and extensive education. He faced criticism for his silence during the Holocaust, but the conversation highlighted his efforts to protect Jews and Catholics through subtle actions and negotiations. The Vatican provided shelter and aid, and Pius XII condemned both the Allies and Axis powers to maintain neutrality. The conversation also noted the Catholic Church's historical context, including the loss of the Papal States and the need for centralized control. The debate emphasized the balance between political and spiritual roles of the Pope. The discussion centered on the historical relationship between Hitler and the Catholic Church, particularly Pope Pius XII. Glenn Cox and others debated whether Hitler feared the Catholic Church's influence and whether Pius XII's actions were a hit job. They also discussed the Catholic Church's global responsibilities, its internal politics, and the Assumption of Mary as a dogma. The conversation touched on modernism's influence, the German Church's issues, and the significance of the peace treaty post-World War I. Glenn promoted a local coffee shop and encouraged listeners to speculate on the next Pope, inviting them to email their thoughts. Don't miss it!
Full Text of ReadingsThursday of the Second Week of Easter Lectionary: 270The Saint of the day is Saint Joseph the WorkerThe Story of Saint Joseph the Worker To foster deep devotion to Saint Joseph among Catholics, and in response to the “May Day” celebrations for workers sponsored by Communists, Pope Pius XII instituted the feast of Saint Joseph the Worker in 1955. This feast extends the long relationship between Joseph and the cause of workers in both Catholic faith and devotion. Beginning in the Book of Genesis, the dignity of human work has long been celebrated as a participation in the creative work of God. By work, humankind both fulfills the command found in Genesis to care for the earth (Gn 2:15) and to be productive in their labors. Saint Joseph, the carpenter and foster father of Jesus, is but one example of the holiness of human labor. Jesus, too, was a carpenter. He learned the trade from Saint Joseph and spent his early adult years working side-by-side in Joseph's carpentry shop before leaving to pursue his ministry as preacher and healer. In his encyclical Laborem Exercens, Pope John Paul II stated: “the Church considers it her task always to call attention to the dignity and rights of those who work, to condemn situations in which that dignity and those rights are violated, and to help to guide [social] changes so as to ensure authentic progress by man and society.” Saint Joseph is held up as a model of such work. Pius XII emphasized this when he said, “The spirit flows to you and to all men from the heart of the God-man, Savior of the world, but certainly, no worker was ever more completely and profoundly penetrated by it than the foster father of Jesus, who lived with Him in closest intimacy and community of family life and work.” Reflection To capture the devotion to Saint Joseph within the Catholic liturgy, in 1870, Pope Pius IX declared Saint Joseph the patron of the universal Church. In 1955, Pope Pius XII added the feast of Saint Joseph the Worker. This silent saint, who was given the noble task of caring and watching over the Virgin Mary and Jesus, now cares for and watches over the Church and models for all the dignity of human work. Enjoy this look at the life of Saint Joseph! Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

The opposition of the Vatican to Israel has become more and more vocal and prominent. The reasons are rooted in the threat a revived nation of Israel represents to the Catholic Church, which claims to have replaced the Jews as the People of God. The Vatican's use of social media has been inciting violence against Jews around the world. Its resistance to Trump's peace plan is rooted in its opposition to the existence of Israel. The prophets of the Bible clearly predict the tale of these two cities which will result in Jerusalem being the center of world worship, and the Catholic Church being removed.

The exceptional opening of the archives of the pontificate of Pius XII (1939-1958) in 2020 did not end the controversies surrounding the silence of the pope in the face of Nazi atrocities. But, beyond the controversies, what do these new sources reveal? What do they contribute to our understanding of the Shoah, the Second World War and religious power? Do they allow us to grasp more finely the deep ambivalences of the Vatican, between charity and prejudice, in the face of anti-Jewish persecution? Based on three years of examining these considerable funds in Rome, Lukewarm Souls: The Vatican facing the Shoah (La Découverte, 2024) probes the motivations and dilemmas of the people involved in this story, their voices but also their silences. Going beyond a classic approach focused on the pope and diplomacy, this work sheds light on the political, humanitarian, religious and cultural issues of the Holy See's choices. The book raises this question in the long duration of relations between the Church and the Jews in order to evaluate the weight of a centuries-old culture of hostility in the Vatican's responses to anti-Semitic persecutions, before and during the war, but also after the Shoah. Has this unprecedented level of violence against a minority shaken the old bedrock of Christian anti-Judaism? Finally, by making the voices of those on the ground and the persecuted heard, in particular those of mixed Judeo-Christian families, this book questions more broadly the resilience of religion in the face of genocide and the capacity of our civil societies to respond to mass violence. This book was originally published in French as Les âmes tièdes: Le Vatican face à la Shoah (La Découverte, 2024) Geraldine Gudefin is a French-born modern Jewish historian researching Jewish family life, legal pluralism, and the migration experiences of Jews in France and the United States.

The exceptional opening of the archives of the pontificate of Pius XII (1939-1958) in 2020 did not end the controversies surrounding the silence of the pope in the face of Nazi atrocities. But, beyond the controversies, what do these new sources reveal? What do they contribute to our understanding of the Shoah, the Second World War and religious power? Do they allow us to grasp more finely the deep ambivalences of the Vatican, between charity and prejudice, in the face of anti-Jewish persecution?

Video Version contains all the references and notes if needed:https://youtu.be/If6MlszavvMWe look at Catholic Popes and Councils and their utterly clear statements on the necessity of Catholic baptism, weekly mass attendance, and good standing in the bosom of the Catholic Church at the time of death. No ifs, ands or buts. No nuancing. Utterly clear! We then look at other Popes and the current catechism which completely contradict them.And the super serious Catholics who reject all popes since Pius XII have the additional problem of arguing that the College of Cardinals infallibly appointed by Pius XI and Pius XII somehow were not infallible when they chose John XXIII. Quite the poser! But at least they see the contradictions mentioned above. So, in a weird way, the super duper Catholics agree with me!A recent survey revealed that 77% of professing Catholics do not attend weekly mass (almost certainly fewer attend all the Holy Days of Obligation). Well, since we're pretty sure they don't all have great excuses every single week, according to codified RC doctrine, they're on their way to eternal fiery torment upon death. We look at those related RCC doctrines. We ask again, if you don't fear their warnings of eternal fiery torment, why do you believe their promises of heaven?Hey, I don't hates 'em, I just quotes 'em!
n this episode of Fatima Today, hosts Barb Ernster and Katie Moran discuss two important Popes connected to the Fatima message: Pope Pius XII and St. Pope John Paul II. With their feast days in October, we explore how they promoted Fatima and their legacies. Join us to learn about their impact and connection to the Fatima apparitions.

As part of our march to the Kingdom Come part, the years keep rolling on and the Holy Father keeps adding new Cardinals to… well I'd normally say to fill vacancies, but the reality this is the first time possibly in history where technically the College is already over capacity but here comes Pope Francis adding more new Cardinals anyways. Don't get too worked up about that, it's not a sudden departure as JPII and Benedict both went over the same theoretical limit. The Papacy is an absolute monarchy so constitutions are more like guidelines, though I'm still very curious what it will look like if there's ever a need for a conclave when the College is over capacity, something that seems all the more likely as Pope Francis continues to treat the maximum as a minimum and keeps hid apparent preference for having a consistory every year– the only full year he's skipped in his pontificate was 2021 due to COVID. But enough about the generalities, we've got 21 new Cardinals to cover and only a couple months to do so! To be clear, for the sake of my sanity as I continue to juggle my various responsibilities, I've decided I'm *not* planning to cover all the new Cardinals in time for the consistory on December 8th, at least not on the main feed. I *do* have it down as a stretch goal for my Patreon supporters, getting them all the new cardinals in a more timely fashion but everyone will get the same content eventually. It's just going to take 21 weeks to cover the 21 new Cardinals on the main feed, and it'll be faster for my Patreon folks as a thank-you for the support without actually putting content behind a paywall- just a mild time delay. Fair enough? Look, if you're in a pinch and can't afford a Patreon subscription just write in and ask, I'm a softie and I've been there before, no sweat, I'll get you a link to whichever episode you like when it's ready, free. Again, you'd be getting it eventually anyway, so really you don't even need to do that, just have some patience. Alright, enough admin, let's get talking about the first Cardinal-Elect on Pope Francis' list, and let's start at the beginning, nearly a hundred years ago. Angelo Acerbi was born on September 23rd 1925 in Sesta Godano, part of the province of La Spezia in the Liguria region of Italy, basically due north–ok and a smidge east–of Corsica. Historically, the area was for many years part of the Republic of Genoa, but, look, Cardinal-Elect Acerbi is old but he's not *that* old. He is old enough though that he grew up under Benito Mussolini's Fascist dictatorship and may just remember some adult's reaction to the Lateran Treaty, but probably not, he was three at the time and that's a lot of geopolitical awareness to ask of a toddler. Then again, this is a future diplomat we're talking about here. In any event, the most likely answer for what Angelo was doing as he came of age in Mussolini's Italy is “going to school”, in particular going to seminary, as he was ordained by the age of 22, becoming a priest for the Diocese of… well, somewhere. He seems to have been near the border of two dioceses, La Spezia and Pontremoli. Vatican News lists Pontremoli, so we'll go with that, you'd think they'd know. Part of what makes it not as clear as you'd think is he wasn't serving in the diocese for long. In 1956, about 8 years after his ordination, Fr Acerbi entered the diplomatic service of the Holy See, which was expanding outward now that it was no longer dominated by Italian politics, at least not quite so much. Of course, to be clear, part of that domination had been voluntary, part of what made Mussolini successful was his partners in the Church. Probably the biggest question of the 20th century Papacy is the extent to which Pius XII was one of those partners, and we'll certainly be looking at that eventually, but for today's purposes Acerbi's overlap with the Pope of the Second World War is a brief couple years before Pius was succeeded by John XXIII of Second Vatican Council fame. I don't have any stories of Father Acerbi and the Council, certainly he was aware of it, but he doesn't seem to have been there, which makes sense as he wasn't a bishop yet and his diplomatic work would have been ongoing throughout. His early diplomatic portfolio included relations with Colombia, Brazil, France, Japan, and Portugal. It's possible his work in Colombia and Portugal overlapped with Papal trips there- Paul VI had kicked off the modern era of Papal travel in 1964 when he visited the Holy Land, the first Papal trip outside Italy since the time of Napoleon. Certainly Father Acerbi and Paul VI at least got together in 1974, when His Holiness appointed Father Acerbi as Pro-Nuncio to New Zealand and personally consecrated him Titular Archbishop of Zella, which as near as I can tell is an oasis in the middle of Libya. As a reminder, titular dioceses have no function, it's just a way of giving an official jurisdiction to a bishop whose responsibilities won't actually include running a diocese. Oh, and if you're wondering, a Pro-Nuncio is actually one step *below* a regular Nuncio. It's a step above an Apostolic Delegate, which, well, he also became one of those at the same time. Not to New Zealand, but to the Pacific Ocean. Realistically of course, “the Pacific Ocean” is referring to a number of Pacific Island nations, many of which have their own nunciatures these days, though I still like to think of it as managing the Holy See's relations with Poseidon, God of the Sea. The fifth Pope now-Archbishop Acerbi served was Pope Saint John Paul II, careful counters might wonder who the fourth Pope was but of course since they're careful counters they're probably already aware of the implied existence of John Paul the Second's immediate predecessor, John Paul I. But JPI didn't get up to much in his 33 days as Supreme Pontiff, Which is why we've already blown past him so I can tell you that JPII made Archbishop Acerbi his Nuncio to Colombia in 1979, full-on Nuncio this time, and with him revisiting an area he had worked previously, keeping in mind Columbia was a possible overlap between Acerbi and Paul VI given Paul VI's trip and Acerbi's early work there. Acerbi's decade-plus as Nuncio to Colombia overlaps with some serious drug and cartel times we'll look at more if he makes it to the next round. A particularly memorable stretch would have been the six weeks he spent as a hostage to Socialist guerrillas from that country's 19th of April movement. In 1990, Aberbi was made Nuncio to Hungary, making him first on the restored diplomatic scene there after the fall of the Iron Curtain–Hungary hadn't had a nuncio since 1945. He continued on i n that role for seven years, simultaneously serving as Nuncio to Moldova starting in 1994, the same year Moldova adopted their current constitution. From 97 to 2001, Archbishop Acerbi served in his presumably final diplomatic post, as the Nuncio to the Netherlands. I say presumably because, of course, Pope Francis is giving him a new role in a couple months, so who knows? Maybe he will be asked to step back into another nunciature. Then again, Cardinal-Elect Acerbi himself has already thrown cold water on that idea, noting that he expects to support Pope Francis, quote, “with prayer, as I do not see how else I can contribute given my old age”. Which, I mean, fair enough, he's 99. But we're not quite done with our overview, because from 2001 to 2015, Archbishop Acerbi served as the Prelate of the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of Saint John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta, a name which of course needs some unpacking– the Knights of Malta for short, they're a military religious order that originally was meant to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land and wound up running Rhodes and Malta after the crusades, Rhodes until the Turks kicked them out and Malta until Napoleon kicked them out, at which point they moved to Rome. They're more about ceremony and charitable stuff than military stuff these days, and we actually came across them during our Patreon special on Cardinal Burke with Fry from Pontifacts if you need another reason to join Patreon. Don't worry, Cardinal Burke and the Knights of Malta will be popping up on the main feed again in due course. Anyways, as Prelate for the Order, the octogenarian Archbishop Acerbi's job was to oversee the priests of the Order, making sure they were doing their priest things right. The end of his tenure overlapped with the beginning of the aforementioned Cardinal Burke's time as their Cardinal-Patron by the way, if you were wondering about that. Archbishop Acerbi retired from that role a few months before his 90th birthday, and hadn't been making many headlines since, most recently residing at the Casa Santa Marta on the Vatican grounds, which if that name rings a bell, yes, Pope Francis lives in Room 201 there. And it was Pope Francis who put Archbishop Acerbi back into the headlines last week, when he dropped his name at his weekly Angelus last Sunday, which apparently the Acerbi was listening to, since he said that's how he found out about it. His reaction to the news has been as diplomatic as you might expect, refusing to make it about himself personally, quote: "I believe the Pope wanted to give a sign of appreciation and recognition for the service that many old and new nuncios, as well as the staff of the nunciatures, are providing around the world" As he is already over the maximum voting age of 80, Cardinal-Elect Angelo Acerbi will not be able to vote in future conclaves, though traditionally older Cardinals do participate in the preliminary gatherings and discussions that take place during the sede vacante period before the opening of the conclave itself. Today's episode is part of Cardinal Numbers, and there will be more Cardinal Numbers next week. Thank you for listening, God bless you all! Thanks, Joe!

1 And after these things the Lord appointed also other seventy-two: and he sent them two and two before his face into every city and place whither he himself was to come.Post haec autem designavit Dominus et alios septuaginta duos : et misit illos binos ante faciem suam in omnem civitatem et locum, quo erat ipse venturus. 2 And he said to them: The harvest indeed is great, but the labourers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send labourers into his harvest.Et dicebat illis : Messis quidem multa, operarii autem pauci. Rogate ergo dominum messis ut mittat operarios in messem suam. 3 Go: Behold I send you as lambs among wolves.Ite : ecce ego mitto vos sicut agnos inter lupos. 4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way.Nolite portare sacculum, neque peram, neque calceamenta, et neminem per viam salutaveritis. 5 Into whatsoever house you enter, first say: Peace be to this house.In quamcumque domum intraveritis, primum dicite : Pax huic domui : 6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him; but if not, it shall return to you.et si ibi fuerit filius pacis, requiescet super illum pax vestra : sin autem, ad vos revertetur. 7 And in the same house, remain, eating and drinking such things as they have: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house.In eadem autem domo manete, edentes et bibentes quae apud illos sunt : dignus est enim operarius mercede sua. Nolite transire de domo in domum. 8 And into what city soever you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.Et in quamcumque civitatem intraveritis, et susceperint vos, manducate quae apponuntur vobis : 9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them: The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.et curate infirmos, qui in illa sunt, et dicite illis : Appropinquavit in vos regnum Dei. This holy priest of Luna in Tuscany founded the Congregation of Regular Clergy called "of the Mother of God", and other Institutes. He died at Rome on October 9 A.D. 1609. St John Leondardi was beatified by Pope Pius XI. Pius XII extended his feast to the whole Catholic world A.D. 1940.
Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Our Lady of the Rosary Lectionary: 461The Saint of the day is Our Lady of the RosaryThe Story of Our Lady of the Rosary Saint Pius V established the feast of Our Lady of Victory to thank God for the Christian defeat of the Turks at Lepanto—a victory attributed to praying the rosary. Pope Gregory XIII changed the name to Feast of the Holy Rosary–originally celebrated on the first Sunday in October–in 1573. Pope Clement XI extended the feast to the universal Church in 1716. And in 1913, Saint Pius X set the date for the feast that we know today of October 7. The development of the rosary has a long history. First a practice developed of praying 150 Our Fathers in imitation of the 150 Psalms. Then there was a parallel practice of praying 150 Hail Marys. Soon a mystery of Jesus' life was attached to each Hail Mary. Though Mary's giving of the rosary to Saint Dominic is recognized as a legend, the development of this prayer form owes much to the followers of Saint Dominic. One of them, Alan de la Roche, was known as “the apostle of the rosary.” He founded the first Confraternity of the Rosary in the 15th century. In the 16th century, the rosary was developed to consist of 15 mysteries: joyful, sorrowful and glorious. In 2002, Pope John Paul II added the five Mysteries of Light to this devotion. Reflection The purpose of the rosary is to help us meditate on the great mysteries of our salvation. Pius XII called it a compendium of the gospel. The main focus is on Jesus—his birth, life, death, and resurrection. The “Our Fathers” remind us that Jesus' Father is the initiator of salvation. The “Hail Marys” remind us to join with Mary in contemplating these mysteries. They also make us aware that Mary was and is intimately joined with her Son in all the mysteries of his earthly and heavenly existence. The “Glory Bes” remind us that the purpose of all life is the glory of the Trinity. The rosary appeals to many. It is simple. The constant repetition of words helps create an atmosphere in which to contemplate the mysteries of God. We sense that Jesus and Mary are with us in the joys and sorrows of life. We grow in hope that God will bring us to share in the glory of Jesus and Mary forever. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media
In this session, we will consider the nature of the relationship of the Church to science using the key document by Pope Pius XII that has the ominous title, “Concerning Some False Opinions Threatening to Undermine The Foundations of Catholic Doctrine” (Humane Generis). In this work, the Pope lays out the vital role that the Church plays in the world and in the sciences through her moral guidance and teaching. Among other topics, he lays out the Church's official view of evolution and polygenism. You can peruse a copy of the document here.Pope St. John Paul II returns to the issues raised in Humane Generis and clarifies the Church's relationship to science in his famous speech to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences “On Evolution.” You can read the short speech here.This presentation will be a fascinating consideration of the Church's actual teaching on the origins of our species. It will be of particular interest to anyone who is interested in science or works in a scientific related field. Our guest presenter for the evening will be Dr. Michael Goodrich, a member of St. Stephen's parish and a theoretical physicist.Support the show

Send us a textThe behavior of the Catholic Church and Pope Pius XII is one of the most hotly debated controversies in the history of the Holocaust. And for a long time much of the evidence about that has been locked away in the Vatican Archives. Now, historians are finally able to access these documents. In this episode, I talk with one of those who has access to those Vatican archives, David Kertzer, about the response of the Catholic Church to the rise of the Nazis and to the Holocaust. Kertzer, David, The Pope at War: The Secret History of Pius XII, Mussolini, and Hitler (2022)Follow on Twitter @holocaustpod.Email the podcast at holocausthistorypod@gmail.comThe Holocaust History Podcast homepage is hereYou can find a complete reading list with books by our guests and also their suggestions here.
Very few of the many recent books about Pius XII and the Holocaust are actually about Pius XII and the Holocaust. The liberal best-selling attacks on the pope and the Catholic Church are really an intra-Catholic argument about the direction of the Church today. Deacon Harold will break this down today and also look into Soulful Psalm 33.
In March 2020, the Vatican's Apostolic Archives of Pope Pius XII — also known as the Vatican's “secret archives” — were opened to scholars from around the world. Historian and Watson Professor David Kertzer was one of those scholars. What he found there is helping to reframe the role that the Catholic Church — and its then-leader, Pope Pius XII — played in World War II. Pius XII's legacy is heavily debated. Some want him to be made a saint. Others call him ‘“Hitler's Pope,” blaming him for aiding the Nazi regime and, ultimately, facilitating the Holocaust. What David Kertzer found is a much more complicated story. On this episode of “Trending Globally,” originally broadcast in the summer of 2022, the story of “a pope at war” and what it can teach us about the need for moral leadership in times of crisis.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary Lectionary: 422The Saint of the day is Queenship of the Blessed Virgin MaryThe Story of the Queenship of Mary Pope Pius XII established this feast in 1954. But the Blessed Virgin Mary's queenship has roots in Scripture. At the Annunciation, Gabriel announced that Mary's Son would receive the throne of David and rule forever. At the Visitation, Elizabeth calls Mary “mother of my Lord.” As in all the mysteries of Mary's life, she is closely associated with Jesus: Her queenship is a share in Jesus' kingship. We can also recall that in the Old Testament the mother of the king has great influence in court. In the fourth century Saint Ephrem called Mary “Lady” and “Queen.” Later Church fathers and doctors continued to use the title. Hymns of the 11th to 13th centuries address Mary as queen: “Hail, Holy Queen,” “Hail, Queen of Heaven,” “Queen of Heaven.” The Dominican rosary and the Franciscan crown as well as numerous invocations in Mary's litany celebrate her queenship. The feast is a logical follow-up to the Assumption, and is now celebrated on the octave day of that feast. In his 1954 encyclical To the Queen of Heaven, Pius XII points out that Mary deserves the title because she is Mother of God, because she is closely associated as the New Eve with Jesus' redemptive work, because of her preeminent perfection, and because of her intercessory power. Reflection As Saint Paul suggests in Romans 8:28–30, God has predestined human beings from all eternity to share the image of his Son. All the more was Mary predestined to be the mother of Jesus. As Jesus was to be king of all creation, Mary, in dependence on Jesus, was to be queen. All other titles to queenship derive from this eternal intention of God. As Jesus exercised his kingship on earth by serving his Father and his fellow human beings, so did Mary exercise her queenship. As the glorified Jesus remains with us as our king till the end of time (Matthew 28:20), so does Mary, who was assumed into heaven and crowned queen of heaven and earth.

Friends of the Rosary, Today, August 15, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a holy day of obligation for Catholics. In 1950, Pius XII proclaimed the Assumption of Mary a dogma of the Catholic Church in these words: "The Immaculate Mother of God, the ever-virgin Mary, having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heaven." Pius Parsch, in The Church's Year of Grace, wrote: “Now, toward the end of summer, when fruits are ripe in the gardens and fields, the Church celebrates the most glorious "harvest festival" in the Communion of Saints. Mary, the supremely blessed one among women, Mary, the most precious fruit that has ripened in the fields of God's kingdom, is today taken into the granary of heaven." The celebration of the Assumption is the oldest feast day of Our Lady. It was the "Memory of Mary." Its origin is traced to when Jerusalem was restored as a sacred city during the reign of the Roman Emperor Constantine (c. 285-337). On a hill near Mount Zion in Palestine was the "Place of Dormition," the spot of Mary's "falling asleep." The belief in the Assumption dates back to the apostles themselves. Mary expired in the presence of the disciples of Christ, and her tomb, when opened later, was found empty. The apostles concluded that the body was taken into heaven and transferred to the glory of eternity. The location of that empty tomb is today the Benedictine Abbey of the Dormition of Mary, a place of pilgrimage on the edge of Jerusalem. In the seventh century, the feast was celebrated in Rome as the "Falling Asleep" ("Dormitio") of the Mother of God. Today, this solemnity day looks to eternity. It is not just the commemoration of a historical event. It also gives us hope to follow Our Lady when our lives are over. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come!

Thomas Mirus and Nathan Douglas continue their discussion of Pope Pius XII's apostolic exhortations brought together in the 1955 document “The Ideal Film”, which remains the high water-mark of official Church engagement with the art form. They also touch on his 1957 encyclical Miranda prorsus, on radio, films, and television. In the first audience, Pius XII had discussed the ideal film in its relation to the spectator. In this second audience, he discusses the ideal film both in relation to its content, and in relation to society. He makes general observations on the legitimate range of subjects which a film may take on as matter for its plot, and offers principles for films which deal with religious subjects and for the portrayal of evil. Pius XII puts his finger on one of the biggest problems with many Christian movies: “Religious interpretation, even when it is carried out with a right intention, rarely receives the stamp of an experience truly lived and as a result, capable of being shared with the spectator.” Two years after The Ideal Film, the encyclical Miranda prorsus (on radio, films, and television) reiterated much of the moral teaching of Pius XI's Vigilanti cura, but with more detail for particular occupations within the film world—directors, producers, actors, theater owners, etc. Of particular interest is the teaching about the moral obligations of Catholic film critics.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Alphonsus Liguori, Bishop and Doctor of the Church Lectionary: 404The Saint of the day is Saint Alphonsus LiguoriSaint Alphonsus Liguori’s Story Moral theology, Vatican II said, should be more thoroughly nourished by Scripture, and show the nobility of the Christian vocation of the faithful and their obligation to bring forth fruit in charity for the life of the world. Alphonsus, declared patron of moral theologians by Pius XII in 1950, would rejoice in that statement. In his day, Alphonsus fought for the liberation of moral theology from the rigidity of Jansenism. His moral theology, which went through 60 editions in the century following him, concentrated on the practical and concrete problems of pastors and confessors. If a certain legalism and minimalism crept into moral theology, it should not be attributed to this model of moderation and gentleness. At the University of Naples, Alphonsus received a doctorate in both canon and civil law by acclamation, at the age of 16, but he soon gave up the practice of law for apostolic activity. He was ordained a priest, and concentrated his pastoral efforts on popular parish missions, hearing confessions, and forming Christian groups. He founded the Redemptorist congregation in 1732. It was an association of priests and brothers living a common life, dedicated to the imitation of Christ, and working mainly in popular missions for peasants in rural areas. Almost as an omen of what was to come later, he found himself deserted after a while by all his original companions except one lay brother. But the congregation managed to survive and was formally approved 17 years later, though its troubles were not over. Alphonsus' great pastoral reforms were in the pulpit and confessional—replacing the pompous oratory of the time with simplicity, and the rigorism of Jansenism with kindness. His great fame as a writer has somewhat eclipsed the fact that for 26 years he traveled up and down the Kingdom of Naples preaching popular missions. He was made bishop at age 66 after trying to reject the honor, and at once instituted a thorough reform of his diocese. His greatest sorrow came toward the end of his life. The Redemptorists, precariously continuing after the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773, had difficulty in getting their Rule approved by the Kingdom of Naples. Alphonsus acceded to the condition that they possess no property in common, but with the connivance of a high Redemptorist official, a royal official changed the Rule substantially. Alphonsus, old, crippled and with very bad sight, signed the document, unaware that he had been betrayed. The Redemptorists in the Papal States then put themselves under the pope, who withdrew those in Naples from the jurisdiction of Alphonsus. It was only after his death that the branches were united. At 71, Alphonsus was afflicted with rheumatic pains which left incurable bending of his neck. Until it was straightened a little, the pressure of his chin caused a raw wound on his chest. He suffered a final 18 months of “dark night” scruples, fears, temptations against every article of faith and every virtue, interspersed with intervals of light and relief, when ecstasies were frequent. Alphonsus is best known for his moral theology, but he also wrote well in the field of spiritual and dogmatic theology. His Glories of Mary is one of the great works on that subject, and his book Visits to the Blessed Sacrament went through 40 editions in his lifetime, greatly influencing the practice of this devotion in the Church. Reflection Saint Alphonsus was known above all as a practical man who dealt in the concrete rather than the abstract. His life is indeed a practical model for the everyday Christian who has difficulty recognizing the dignity of Christian life amid the swirl of problems, pain, misunderstanding and failure. Alphonsus suffered all these things. He is a saint because he was able to maintain an intimate sense of the presence of the suffering Christ through it all.

Continuing their survey of magisterial documents on cinema, Thomas Mirus and Nathan Douglas arrive at Pope Ven. Pius XII's two apostolic exhortations gathered under the title "The Ideal Film". Pius shows himself to be a true enthusiast of cinema with his poetic insights. "The Ideal Film" remains the high water-mark of official Church engagement with the art form. This episode covers the first of the two exhortations. Pius begins with an insightful discussion of the psychological effects of film on the viewer, not only insofar as the viewer is passive, but insofar as the viewer is invited to actively identify himself with the human figures on the screen and even, in some sense, participate in the creation of the events, by interpreting them for himself. He then begins his discussion of the ideal film, first in its relation to the spectator. In this relation, the ideal film will offer the following: respect for man, loving understanding, the fulfillment of promises made by the film and even of the inner longings brought by the viewer, and aiding man in his self-expression in the path of right and goodness. There is also a fascinating sidebar on the issue of whether it is legitimate for some films, even ideal films, to function as pure entertainment and escapism – to which Pius answers yes, for “man has shallows as well as depths”.

In Today's Show Did God inspire the invention of air conditioning? When attending mass, does one have to focus on the prayers of the priest? Or can you pray a rosary while mass is going on for example? Should we follow the modesty guidelines written under Pius XII? How to create more anonymity when dealing with face-to-face confession? Can you elaborate on how turning the other cheek and do not kill for applies to Catholics in the military? Can you recommend any books to help people come back to the Church? During one mass we had the gospel reading about Jesus calming the waves, and the epistle before that was from Job when God mentions creating the waters. Can you share what's the similarity between the two writings? Should the Epistle be read after the Gospel? Is it sinful to not vote in an election if you are not happy with the candidates? What is the purpose of intentions when we surrender our merits/fruits to our Lady for example? What is limbo, and is it dogma in the Church that unbaptized infants go there? If a child dies in the womb but the parents want to baptize the child, does that count as a baptism of desire? Did the law of Moses come from Moses or from heaven?

Friends of the Rosary, Today, on the Saturday following the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart, we celebrate the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. In 1944, during the Second World War, Pius XII instituted this feast to obtain, through Mary's intercession, “peace among nations, freedom for the Church, the conversion of sinners, the love of purity and the practice of virtue.” At that time, Pius XII put the whole world under the special protection of Mary by consecrating it to her Immaculate Heart. However, this devotion is not new. Simeon's prophecy, with its representation of Mary's heart pierced with a sword, paved the way for this devotion. The Holy Virgin “cooperated through charity,” as St. Augustine says, “in the work of our redemption.” Today, the Immaculate Heart expresses Mary's interior life, including her joys and sorrows, virtues, and hidden perfections. It's a living reminder of her virginal love for God, maternal love for her Divine Son, and compassionate love for her sinful children below. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • June 8, 2024, Today's Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET
Friends of the Rosary, Today, on the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart, we honor the boundless and infinite love of Christ Jesus and glory in His Heart, pierced by our sins so that we may offer worthy reparation. "Jesus knew and loved us each and all during his life, loving us all with a human heart," says the Catechism. The institution of this solemnity resulted from our Lord's revelations to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, a cloistered nun of the Visitation Order, in 1675. Alacoque wrote a short devotional, "La Devotion au Sacré-Coeur de Jesus" (Devotion to the Sacred Heart). However, it was not until Pope Pius XI's 1928 encyclical "Miserentissimus Redemptor" that the Church validated the credibility of Alacoque's visions of Jesus Christ by having "promised her [Alacoque] that all those who rendered this honor to His Heart would be endowed with an abundance of heavenly graces." In 1956, Pope Pius XII alluded to the abundance of the supernatural graces that flow from Christ's heart, calling the whole Church to recognize the Sacred Heart as an important dimension of Christian spirituality. Pius XII gave two reasons. First, believers recognize that Jesus' Heart is hypostatically united to the Person of the Incarnate Son of God Himself. Second, the Heart is the natural sign and symbol of Jesus' boundless love for humans. Today is also the World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York
