Open Letter to His Holiness Pope Benedict Xvi
In the Name of God, the Compassionate , the Merciful, And may Peace and Blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad OPEN LETTER TO HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI In the Name of God, the Compassionate , the Merciful, Do not contend with people of the Book except in the fairest way …. (The Holy Qur’an, al-Ankabut , : ). Your Holiness, September th , we thought it appropriate, in the spirit of open exchange, to address your use of a debate between the Emperor Manuel II Paleologus and a “learned Persian” as the starting point for a discourse on the relationship between reason and faith. While we applaud your efforts to oppose the dominance of positivism and materialism in human life, we must point out some errors in the way you mentioned Islam as a counterpoint to the proper use of reason, as well as some mistakes in the assertions you put forward in support of your argument. There is no Compulsion in Religion You mention that “according to the experts ” the verse which begins, There is no compulsion in religion (al-Baqarah : ) is from the early period when the Prophet “was still powerless and under threat,” but this is incorrect. In fact this verse is acknowledged to belong to the period of Quranic revelation corresponding to the political and military ascendance of the young Muslim community. There is no compulsion in religion was not a command to Muslims to remain steadfast in the face of the desire of their oppressors to force them to renounce their faith, but was a reminder to Muslims themselves, once they had attained power, that they could not force another’s heart to believe. -

Prince Charles-Philippe Marie Louis of Orléans, Duke of An- jou and , Grand Master Emeritus; and Commandeur Bruce Sebree at the Chapter General in Rome As our wonderfully moving sojourn at the Order’s Chapter General in Rome now settles into inspiring memories, we must take stock of our tasks and talents as the next three years will be particularly important for the Order. Internationally, we march to- wards achieving canonical status as an Association of the Faithful, which several of our Grand Priories have already attained na- tionally. We must continue to work hard to grow our order. We must also do more to spread our message of hope, by helping those who are lost or in need. Yes, our work is fun and we are energized by our mission of mercy! So let’s give thanks for our growth in spirit, in numbers, and in our contributions to making a better world. Let’s also rejoice that our Grand Mas- ter H. E. Jan Count Dobrzenský z Dobrzenicz was admitted to the Pontifical Equestrian Order of St Gregory the Great in the rank of Knight Commander on 10 December 2016 (See Page 2 story: “St. Lazarus Grand Master, Knighted by the Pope). This was bestowed upon him for doing what he loves: pursuing justice and mercy to the call of Atavis et Armis! Commander Thierry de Villejust, Grand Prior St. -
The Nightmare on 17Th Street
SEXUAL ABUSE OF MINORS BY CLERGY IN THE ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA OR THE NIGHTMARE ON 17TH STREET Thomas P. Doyle, J.C.D., C.A.D.C. February 20, 2017 1 Introductory Remarks The Archdiocese of Philadelphia is one of the oldest ecclesiastical jurisdictions in the United States. It was erected as a diocese in 1808 and elevated to an archdiocese in 1875. It has long had the reputation of being one of the most staunchly “Catholic” and conservative dioceses in the country. The Archdiocese also has the very dubious distinction of having been investigated by not one but three grand juries in the first decade of the new millennium. The first investigation (Grand Jury 1, 2001-2002) was prompted by the District Attorney’s desire to find factual information about sexual abuse by Catholic clergy in the Archdiocese. The second grand jury (Grand Jury 2, 2003-2005) continued the investigation that the first could not finish before its term expired. The third grand jury investigation (Grand Jury 3, 2010-2011) was triggered by reports to the District Attorney that sexual abuse by priests was still being reported in spite of assurances by the Cardinal Archbishop (Rigali) after the second Grand Jury Report was published that all children in the Archdiocese were safe because there were no priest sexual abusers still in ministry. Most of what the three Grand Juries discovered about the attitude and practices of the archbishop and his collaborators could be found in nearly every archdiocese and diocese in the United States. Victims are encouraged to approach the Church’s victim assistance coordinators and assured of confidentiality and compassionate support yet their stories and other information are regularly shared with the Church’s attorneys in direct violation of the promise made by the Church. -

On His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI Communiqué of the General House of the Priestly Fraternity of St
On His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI Communiqué of the General House of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter On Ash Wednesday, February 13, 2013, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter had the opportunity to personally express its profound gratitude, and to assure the Sovereign Pontiff of its prayers, through one of its priests. Fr. Martin Ramm, FSSP, was able to greet the Pope on behalf of all of his community. Our conferee, who was received in general audience by His Holiness, presented him with an edition of the traditional Roman Missal recently published by the Fraternity of St. Peter as a gesture of filial devotion and of great gratitude for the promulgation of the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum. For nearly eight years, Benedict XVI has, with great humility and courage, guided the Bark of Peter - facing great storms – with the greatest concern to always lead souls to safe port. Giving an example of a profound interior life, he refocused the attention of the Catholic faithful upon the fundamentals of the Faith, putting them on guard against every form of relativism; and explaining the more recent Magisterium in the light of Tradition. Ever mindful of the restoration of the sacred, he reconciled the Roman Church with its two- thousand year liturgical patrimony. As a tireless apostle of Church unity, he was particularly engaged in dialogue with the Society of Pius X, in order to achieve the full reconciliation of the latter. The care given to this, on the part of the Holy Father, is particularly dear to us; and reminds us of the care he extended to our own foundation in 1988, when he assisted John Paul II in his role as Prefect for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith. -
Message of His Holiness Pope Francis to the Participants in the European Regional Meeting of the World Medical Association
The Holy See MESSAGE OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN THE EUROPEAN REGIONAL MEETING OF THE WORLD MEDICAL ASSOCIATION To My Venerable Brother Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia President of the Pontifical Academy for Life I extend my cordial greetings to you and to all the participants in the European Regional Meeting of the World Medical Association on end-of-life issues, held in the Vatican in conjunction with the Pontifical Academy for Life. Your meeting will address questions dealing with the end of earthly life. They are questions that have always challenged humanity, but that today take on new forms by reason of increased knowledge and the development of new technical tools. The growing therapeutic capabilities of medical science have made it possible to eliminate many diseases, to improve health and to prolong people’s life span. While these developments have proved quite positive, it has also become possible nowadays to extend life by means that were inconceivable in the past. Surgery and other medical interventions have become ever more effective, but they are not always beneficial: they can sustain, or even replace, failing vital functions, but that is not the same as promoting health. Greater wisdom is called for today, because of the temptation to insist on treatments that have powerful effects on the body, yet at times do not serve the integral good of the person. Some sixty years ago, Pope Pius XII, in a memorable address to anaesthesiologists and intensive care specialists, stated that there is no obligation to have recourse in all circumstances to every possible remedy and that, in some specific cases, it is permissible to refrain from their use (cf. -
