The VaticanNews portal (January 14, 2026) reports that usurper “Cardinal” Pietro Parolin will elevate Kuwait’s Church of Our Lady of Arabia to a “Minor Basilica,” framing this act as a pastoral achievement while concealing its theological bankruptcy.
Catholic News Agency reports on a January 14, 2026, general audience in which the usurper of the Apostolic See, Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), urged Christians to “set aside time… to speak with God in prayer,” framing divine communion as a dialogue between friends. The address centered on Vatican II’s Dei Verbum, with claims that “listening and dialogue with God” form Christianity’s foundation. This modernist inversion reduces the supernatural order to anthropocentric sentimentality.
Catholic News Agency reports on Greenlandic Catholics’ opposition to potential U.S. annexation efforts, quoting Sister Anna Mirijam Kaschner of the Nordic Bishops’ Conference stating parishioners view Greenland as “their land” and don’t wish to become Americans. The article describes Greenland’s 55,000 residents as predominantly Lutheran, with Catholics served by Denmark’s Diocese of Copenhagen. Political leaders jointly declared: “We do not want to be Americans, we do not want to be Danes — we want to be Greenlanders,” asserting their right to self-determination under 2009 self-rule provisions. Church representatives adopt a “cautious” stance prioritizing “the well-being and wishes of Greenland’s people” while awaiting developments.
Vatican News portal reports (January 14, 2026) on an address by the antipope Leo XIV during his Wednesday General Audience, continuing a series on the Second Vatican Council. The article focuses on his commentary regarding Dei Verbum, the conciliar document on Divine Revelation, which he describes as “one of the most beautiful and important of the Council.” The antipope emphasizes Jesus’ words in John 15:15—”No longer do I call you servants…but I have called you friends”—claiming this establishes a “relationship of friendship” as “the only condition of the new covenant.” He urges daily personal prayer and meditation to “cultivate friendship with the Lord,” while omitting any reference to the sacraments, the necessity of grace, or the hierarchical nature of the Church. This relativistic presentation of divine revelation exemplifies the neo-modernist subversion of Catholic doctrine.
Catholic News Agency reports on the U.S. Supreme Court hearing arguments regarding state laws banning transgender athletes from women’s sports teams (January 13, 2026). The article features Catholic athletes from Christendom College and U.S. bishops supporting the bans, citing concerns about competitive fairness and alignment with “God’s natural law.” Justices Alito, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch appear sympathetic to these arguments, emphasizing biological differences and Title IX protections. The bishops’ amicus brief warns that forcing Catholic schools to admit transgender athletes would violate “fundamental Catholic teachings regarding the immutable, God-given differences between the sexes.”
Catholic News Agency portal (January 13, 2026) reports Nicaraguan researcher Martha Patricia Molina’s testimony before the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), detailing 19,836 attacks by Daniel Ortega’s regime against the Church since 2018. Molina cited the expulsion of 304 priests and nuns, Bible import bans, police harassment of altar boys, and the closure of seminaries—reducing some dioceses to 30-40% priestly capacity. She demanded “aggressive” sanctions against Ortega’s military and prosecution for crimes against humanity. USCIRF Chair Vicky Hartzler framed religious freedom as a universal human right, while U.S. representatives like Riley Moore (R-WV) declared America “a Christian nation” with a duty to defend persecuted Christians. The commission heard similar appeals regarding China, Nigeria, and other nations.
Catholic News Agency reports on Bishop Raimo Goyarrola’s plan to establish Finland’s first Catholic school within a Lutheran church building in Helsinki, describing it as a “dream” to serve approximately 20,000 Catholics in this majority-Lutheran country. The institution would operate under state-recognized homeschooling models while maintaining “Christian values” and admitting children of all faiths. This ecumenical venture exemplifies the conciliar sect’s surrender to religious indifferentism and structural apostasy.
Catholic News Agency reports on the death of Scott Adams, creator of the “Dilbert” comic strip, who publicly professed belief in Christ shortly before dying from cancer at age 68. The article notes Adams had “previously announced his intention to convert to Christianity” in January 2025 before his January 13, 2026 death, with his social media account posting a “final message” stating: “I accept Jesus Christ as my lord and savior, and I look forward to spending an eternity with him.” The report emphasizes Adams’ legacy as a cartoonist and his political controversies while framing his conversion as a positive spiritual conclusion.
Catholic News Agency reports New York State Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton advocating for government security grants after vandalism at Staten Island parishes. Incidents include defacement with human feces at St. Sylvester’s on Christmas Day, theft at St. Roch’s, and sacrilegious destruction during Mass at St. Ann’s where an assailant “snatch[ed] the missal and a cross from the altar” while injuring police officers. The senator described these as “vile acts” and proposed utilizing New York’s Securing Communities Against Hate Crimes program—yet this secularized response conceals the theological collapse enabling such desecrations.
EWTN News portal reports on the survival of a Venezuelan family, the Bertis, whose home was severely damaged by a U.S. military projectile during Operation Absolute Resolve on January 3, 2026. The family attributes their physical preservation to devotional practices, with Elena Berti’s rosary and saints’ statues prominently mentioned. Neighbor Gracia Mónaco claims her untouched Virgin Mary statue proves divine intervention. The piece concludes with a material fundraising appeal for home reconstruction. This narrative reduces supernatural grace to sentimentalized natural events while omitting essential Catholic distinctions between true miracles and mere physical preservation.
