Pope Leo gave his first full interview last week, and many topics of interest came up, including the future of the TLM and the immutability of the Church's teaching. We'll break down what he said and whether we should be worried.
Now that's it's been a week since Charlie Kirk was publicly assassinated, the inevitable conspiracy theories are arising, particularly related to Israel's potential role. Is there any validity to these theories?
