German network televises ‘Queer Mass’ sponsored by pro-LGBT diocesan community

A prominent German public-service television network broadcast a pro-LGBT “Queer Mass” celebrated in the Catholic Diocese of Münster last week.

The October 26 televised Mass, which was organized by the Queergemeinde (Queer Community), the Diocese of Münster’s official “LGBT ministry,” and celebrated at St. Anna Church in Mecklenbeck (Photo=, was broadcast on ZDF, a prominent German public-service television network that broadcasts Catholic Masses or Protestant services weekly.

The Mass itself was celebrated by Father Karsten Weidisch, who wore blasphemous rainbow vestments and compared “LGBT Catholics” with the Publican and the faithful who oppose same-sex “marriage” as Pharisees during his homily. The Mass also featured rainbow-colored lights, rock music, as well as testimonies and a blasphemous meditation on the carrying of the cross from active homosexuals.

During his homily, Fr. Weidisch, while discussing the parable of the Publican and the Pharisee (Luke 18:9-14), compared those who identify as “LGBT Catholics” with the Publican, and those who “point their finger” and “judge” these Catholics to the Pharisees.

“(In the Gospel) there is this Pharisee who truly goes on this ego trip in his prayer, and really points the finger at others. And also at the tax collector who is there whom he wants to exclude, wants to push aside,” the priest said. “The tax collector knows his story, he knows his past, and he also knows … ‘I do not have to pretend … I may and I should be honest in my truth, in my life.’”

“So the message is very clear, and that is the message of Jesus: Be yourself, stand by who you are, live your truth, bring it into this world, and go through life as you are,” he added.

While it’s true that those critical of so-called “LGBT Catholics” can be hypocritical and fail to recognize their own sins like the Pharisee, Weidisch falsely suggests that those with same-sex “attraction” should simply “be themselves,” and continue living their sinful lifestyles. The publican, on the other hand, was repentant of and sought God’s mercy for his sins.

The Catholic Church condemns homosexual activity, declares homosexual inclinations “objectively disordered,” and calls homosexuals to chastity and conversion.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered” and “contrary to the natural law.” “Under no circumstances can they be approved,” the Catechism states. Homosexual acts are also mortal sins; therefore, anyone who commits these sins and does not repent through the Sacrament of Confession is in danger of hell.

After his heterodox homily, Weidisch invited a man and a woman, each in active same-sex relationships, to share testimonies about how the Queergemeinde has impacted their lives.

The Münster diocese’s Queergemeinde was formed in 1999 as a home to Christian “lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender people, intersex people, queers and various people,” per its website.

The priest affirmed them in their sinful lifestyles, quoting the late Pope Francis’ infamous 2013 “Who am I to judge?” remarks to reporters while speaking about homosexuals.

“I look into your life journeys, which encourage us to set out on our own life paths, from within the Church, within the faith community,” Weidisch said. “And you all know that famous thought from 2013 when Pope Francis said, ‘If a person is homosexual but seeks God and is of good will, who am I to judge?’”

During the distribution of Holy Communion, Jan Diekmann, a “homosexual” man who is “married” to another man, offered a meditation on how “LGBT Catholics” have to carry because their perverted lifestyles are “rejected” and “excluded” by the Church, and how reception of the Holy Eucharist can help them carry this cross.

Of course, individuals with same-sex attraction are welcomed into the Church with open arms, but they must live in chastity and repent of any previous same-sex relationships per Catholic teaching. It’s also worth noting that Diekmann encouraged those in active homosexual relationships to receive Communion unworthily, and they are committing sacrilege every time they unworthily receive the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ.

In recent years, several German prelates have contradicted Catholic teaching on same-sex “marriage” and gender ideology. The German bishops’ heretical Synodal Way openly sought to change perennial Church teaching on matters like homosexuality, gender, and “women’s “ordination.”

A document approved by participants of the Synodal Way claims that sodomy is “not a sin” and “not to be judged as intrinsically evil.” Another document declared that “transsexual” persons should be admitted to the priesthood.

Earlier this year, the German Bishops’ Conference (DBK) also published guidelines for “blessings” of homosexual “couples,” the divorced and civilly “remarried,” and other irregular unions.

Three teenagers aged 16 and 17 were arrested by police on Wednesday, November 5, around noon in the nave of the cathedral on Pey-Berland Square (photo) in the centre of Bordeaux. They are accused of glorifying terrorism because they filmed themselves shouting ‘Allah Akbar’.[…]The scene frightened worshippers who had come to pay their respects and alerted the national police in the area. The police arrested three of the five teenagers on the spot; the other two had already fled.Taken into police custody, the three youths are accused of glorifying terrorism. However, the police want to reassure the public. ‘This is totally stupid behaviour. There is no terrorist connection,’ says the DIPN of Gironde.

Mamdani is the future of an Islamized West

“Submission is like a hand grenade that activates slowly,” says novelist Michel Houellebecq to the Danish magazine Information. “In France, we’re not there yet, but the situation is like the beginning of the novel. It’s a slow process, but that’s the way things are going.”

What process is he referring to? “A clear movement of adaptation to Islam. Sure, it’s hard to predict what and when it will happen. But the direction is clear.”

That process is now evident in the United States as well.

New York is now about to have its first Muslim mayor, Zohran Mamdani.

We’ve seen how this “Houellebecq model” (the alliance between Islamists and the Left) has worked not only in London with its Muslim mayor, but also across British cities from Birmingham to Luton, with Europe’s first Muslim prime minister in Scotland, in the French Left’s alliance with mosques, and in “Bruxellistan,” to name just a few fronts.

There is a video that seems made with artificial intelligence, but it comes from the official account of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Starmer is in a mosque – it looks like Pakistan, but it’s London. He’s there to talk about the “fight against Islamophobia” and about how the Labour government has allocated more millions of pounds to mosques. Alongside numerous women in burqas, a boy in a hoodie walks by and a little girl wearing a macabre black shroud, covered from head to toe. She’s not even of puberty age.

A scene that bothers no one – neither Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood nor Prime Minister Starmer, who, when asked “what is a woman,” replied: “99.9 percent of women don’t have a penis.”

In Wokistan, only self-perception counts: everything else is patriarchy and Islamization.

Mamdani could not have won without the support of progressive New Yorkers, many of whom-especially young people-embrace the “globalization of the Intifada.”

Western democracy now trembles under the weight of its mad contradictions.

Over the past two years, we’ve seen pro-Gaza terrorist demonstrations: it wasn’t a “new 1968,” as some naive journalists suggested, but a sign of a new demographic alliance that could crown the Muslim crescent in New York.

The real domestic threat in today’s America doesn’t come from the Second Amendment. It comes from campuses and gleaming conference rooms, from people waving foreign flags and chanting “Intifada” on Ivy League lawns, from trust-fund radicals (Mamdani is rich, though he calls himself a “socialist”) who call America “colonialist garbage” while benefiting from it.

They’re not here to reform. They’re here to replace. And in the end, what matters is demography.

A couple of years ago, New York’s Democratic Mayor Eric Adams decided that the Islamic call to prayer would be broadcast publicly every Friday and during Ramadan-with no permits needed.

Islam was already taking pieces of the American Dream before Mamdani. Go to Dearborn, Michigan: it is a Caliphate.

If I had to bet between the Islamic halal and the Western childless, I’d have no doubt who’ll win. And when the illusion collapses, nothing will remain but ruins, a belated regret for lost freedom and some historian studying how it came to be that the West ended up like this.

Germany: After 26 knife blows, Afghan man now on trial for killing his ‘popular’ manager Magda M. at ‘New Yorker’ clothing store

Crime scene Krefeld New Yorker – Google Maps

An Afghan man allegedly plunged his knife 26 times into his manager, who ran a “New Yorker” clothing store in the downtown area of Krefeld in Germany. Another shocking femicide, but one that could have been prevented, as the man was supposed to have already been deported.

Dating back to May 7 of this year, Sayed Akbar S. is now on trial in the Krefeld Regional Court for murdering Magda M.

Sayed Akbar S. already had his asylum application rejected. However, German authorities allowed the man to stay due to a deportation ban, as Afghanistan was allegedly “too dangerous” for Sayed Akbar S. to be sent back to.

Due to left-wing policies that govern Germany, a woman is now dead — one of many such victims across Europe.

The 25-year-old Afghan man is accused of surprising his boss on the third floor of the clothing store, where he stabbed her 26 times in the chest and stomach. Sayed Akbar S. used an 8-centimeter-long knife during the attack and is described as stabbing the woman in “frenzy.” After the act, he was completely covered in the victim’s blood.

The woman was described as “popular” and had many friends, colleagues, and family who gathered at the man’s trial on Nov. 3. Magda’s mother and her partner faced the accused killer in court as well.

The Afghan suspect “remained silent” during the first day of trial, according to German newspaper Rheinische Post. The man’s lawyer “declined to comment on the charges on the first day of the trial.”

As a result, the first day of trial only involved the recording of the defendant’s details, and was then adjourned after just eight minutes. This “caused discontent” among those gathered to witness the trial, according to the Rheinische Post.

The frustration boiled over once the proceedings ended. “Some complained about the lack of results on the first day of the trial.” Another person “directed wild insults at the defendant after the opening proceedings,” leading to the man being asked to leave the courtroom.

The public prosecutor’s office assumes that the man was not criminally responsible at the time of the incident “due to paranoid schizophrenia.” Following an examination, the man was transferred from pretrial detention to a psychiatric hospital. The jury court must now decide whether the man must remain there permanently.

The next hearing is scheduled for Nov. 20.

New Figures Reveal Migrant Crime Crisis in Italy

Illustration. AI generator

Foreign nationals are massively over-represented in Italian crime data released this week—and the figures are expected to be even worse for illegal migrants.

The information from the Interior Ministry shows that the incidence of foreign arrests is higher than that of Italians when it comes to

  • robberies (52.3%), including public robberies (60.1%), snatching (61%) and theft by sleight of hand (69%).

The percentages are lower for

  • sexual assault (43%),
  • drug dealing (39%),
  • car theft (24.5%),
  • smuggling (29%) and
  • intentional homicide (23.7%).

But foreigners are overrepresented in all these cases, too, considering they make up just nine percent of the Italian population.

The figure on sexual violence is particularly interesting, given Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s claim almost exactly a year ago that rising immigration is responsible for increased violence against women.

Italian crime researcher Paolo Pinotti told the Il Sole 24 Ore newspaper that “the data provided by the Interior Ministry does not reveal a breakdown between legal and illegal immigrants reported or arrested during the year.” He suggested that if it did, illegal migrants would bear the brunt of the responsibility for this overrepresentation.

Foreigners who are legally present in the country, on the other hand, have a propensity for crime in line with that of Italians.

Migrants account for the highest portion of arrests in the Tuscan city of Prato (62%). Milan and Florence are not that far behind, at 55.8% and 56% respectively.

Similar reports on migrant crime crises have emerged in recent years in France, Germany, and elsewhere across the continent.

Germany offers Afghans €10,000 and more not to come

The German Government has reportedly started to offer money to Afghan citizens in Pakistan slated for resettlement in Germany to get them to not come into the country.

As newspaper Welt reported yesterday, the German interior ministry has started sending letters to Afghans in Pakistan previously admitted to a resettlement programme. In one case, it offered recipients a €10,000 “starter bonus” for them to return to their home county instead of being flown to Germany.

In addition, they are offered a €2,500 one-off payment to facilitate their emigration from Pakistan.

In another example, a family of four was offered a €2,750 instant payment and €11,500 upon their arrival in Afghanistan.

According to State newscaster Tagesschau yesterday, there are currently 2,100 Afghans in Pakistan awaiting transport to Germany.

The interior ministry confirmed the situation, saying: “There are offers within the framework of a voluntary return programme to Afghanistan or departure to another third country.

“The aim is to give prospects to people who cannot expect to be accepted in Germany.”

The Afghans in question had previously been granted the right to move to Germany. Most of them are currently living in Pakistan, having fled their home country after the takeover by the radical Islamist Taliban in 2021.

Germany has tried to walk back on its promises, with new interior minister Alexander Dobrindt (Christian Social Union, CSU) announcing a temporary pause in May 2025.

The German embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital, refrained from giving out visas to the Afghans in question or cancelled existing visas.

German courts, though, have repeatedly ruled in favour of the Afghans, ordering authorities to fly them out from Pakistan to Germany.

Since the new government of Friedrich Merz (Christian Democratic Union, CDU) took over in May there have been four flights in which 110 Afghans were transported to Germany.

In the latest case, a flight carrying 31 Afghan citizens from the programme landed in Hanover yesterday.

The interior ministry is now trying to pay its way out of the legal obligations created by the previous left-wing government.

According to Welt, the letters to Afghans were sent out in earlier this month, asking recipients to decide by the middle of the month whether they wanted to take the money.

If the Afghans accept the offer, they have to declare they are leaving the programme. A restart of procedures at a later stage has been ruled out.

School governors across England told to dismiss grooming gang fears as ‘disinformation’

The GovernorHub quiz was removed from its website following backlash from parents and MPs | GOVERNORHUB

School governors across England have been told to dismiss fears about grooming gangs as “disinformation”, it can be revealed.

Thousands of volunteers for education governing bodies were presented with various scenarios during safeguarding training, including one involving rumours of “men belonging to a particular religion” committing “violent crimes against women”.

They were reportedly asked to identify the scenario as an “online safety risk” because pupils were spreading “disinformation”, according to The Daily Telegraph

The course — which MPs and parents branded as “shocking” and “concerning” — was delivered by GovernorHub, a third-party platform that is used in two-thirds of schools across the country.

The shocking revelation comes as hundreds of previously closed investigations into group-based child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) are being reviewed by the National Crime Agency.

The GovernorHub material was disclosed by a concerned parent and part-time governor, who was outraged at the idea of schools being forced to reject evidence of grooming gangs.

“For governors to be trained to behave in a way that would enable further such abuse is sickening and highlights the casual attitude so many still have towards these evil crimes,” they said.

The GovernorHub scenario, which has since been deleted, stated: “At a board meeting, your staff governor reports overhearing pupils in her class talking about a video they were sent, falsely claiming that men belonging to a particular religion are using new tactics to commit violent crimes against women in your local area.”

In 2022, the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) recommended mandatory safeguarding courses for all governors following concerns that evidence of minors being abused was routinely ignored for decades by schools, councils and the police.

Chris Philp, the Conservative MP and shadow home secretary, said: “It is shocking that training for schools categorises what sounds like a description of a rape gang as ‘disinformation’ or a ‘conspiracy theory’.

“We now know that the majority of rape gang perpetrators were of Pakistani origin. Claiming this is ‘disinformation’ is exactly how the rape gang scandal was covered up in the first place.

“This so-called training is a disgrace, and little more than propaganda designed to aid the cover-up of these appalling crimes.”

A GovernorHub spokesman said: “The question was intended to test governors’ understanding of the difference between misinformation, disinformation and conspiracy theories, which the most recent update to Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) requires.

“It focuses on what a governor might do if they become aware of online content that school leaders know to be untrue.

“This question forms part of GovernorHub’s safeguarding refresher training introduced in September this year.

“We have recognised that the scenario included in this question was inappropriate because it made the question unclear and we are revising it this week.”

Under Operation Beaconport, the NCA is reviewing cases where police forces and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) took no further action against suspects between January 1, 2010, and March 31, 2025.

Sarah Champion, the MP for Rotherham, told GB News: “Let us never forget that at the heart of every case the police or CPS decided not to pursue, there is a child horribly exploited and abused — and a perpetrator who got away with it.

“I would suggest the numbers are just the tip of a very dark iceberg; understandably, very few victims report or are taken seriously when they try to.”

Convicted Paedophile Wanted in Germany Was Housed in UK Migrant Hotel

Screengrab youtube

The British government placed a convicted paedophile wanted by German authorities in a migrant hotel and is paying for his legal defence against extradition, sparking outrage from local MPs.

Izalden Alshaik Suleman, 32, was detained by the National Crime Agency (NCA) at the Britannia Ashley Hotel in Hale last month and now faces deportation to Germany where he is wanted for a child sex offence.

His detention at the hotel, which has been used to house alleged asylum seekers at taxpayer expense since 2023, has sparked questions as to why the government placed the convicted paedophile within the accommodation in the first place, rather than immediately removing him from the country.

Speaking to the Altrincham Today publication, Local MP Connor Rand said: “The individual who has been arrested should never have been allowed into the country. I understand they now face extradition, and I will be writing to the Home Office to request they are deported as soon as possible.”

Rand went on to reveal that the NCA failed to inform local authorities, including himself, the Greater Manchester Police, or the local Trafford Council about their plans to arrest Suleman as the hotel.

“While I am grateful to the NCA for their work to apprehend a clearly dangerous individual, I share the anger of residents that we were kept in the dark about such a serious incident,” he said.

A member of the governing left-wing Labour Party, Rand said that he has urged Prime Minister Starmer’s government to shut down migrant accommodation at the Ashley Hotel as well as the Cresta Court migrant hotel, and said that he has received assurances that they will both be shut, but did not disclose any timeline.

The leader of the Trafford Conservatives Cllr Nathan Evans said that it was “outrageous” for a convicted pedophile to be housed in the hotel, saying: “We have been mocked by the Greens, Lib Dems, Labour and I even got a letter from the churches saying we were wrong to call these facilities inappropriate. These are the places we should not be housing these illegal migrants.”

When the Ashley Hotel was commandeered by the previous Tory government in 2023 to house migrants, then-MP Sir Graham Brady said that it was the “most obviously inappropriate location you could imagine” to house supposed asylum seekers.

The following year, the government also took over the Cresta Court hotel in Altrincham to house asylum seekers. According to the local report, around 300 migrants still reside in the hotel at taxpayer expense.

The disclosure that the government was housing a convicted paedophile in a migrant hotel comes in the wake of months of protests against the scheme to house mostly young male illegals in hotels across the country and concern for the safety local women and girls.

The protest movement was sparked in July after Ethiopian illegal Hadush Kebatu sexually molested a 14-year-old girl outside of the Bell Hotel in Epping, where the government placed him after he broke into Britain by boat over the English Channel.

Adding insult to injury, last month, Kebatu was “mistakenly” released from prison early, kicking off a nationwide manhunt and terror for his victim.

Kebatu was ultimately caught — after authorities initially turned him away as he sought to turn himself in — and was given £500 in taxpayer cash to voluntarily leave the country. While Suleman has not been offered direct cash, the state is still paying for his legal defence against extradition proceedings to send him back to Germany to face justice for his child sex crimes.

The Home Office said: “Mandatory security checks are an essential part of our border controls and are conducted on all small boat arrivals. Where criminals or threats are identified, we seek to remove them as soon as possible.”

France: A motorist shouts ‘Allah Akbar’ and mows down ten people before attempting to set his car on fire

On a horrific Wednesday morning on Île d’Oléron: at around 9.30 a.m., a motorist deliberately drove into pedestrians and cyclists between Dolus-d’Oléron and Saint-Pierre-d’Oléron, injuring ten people, two of them seriously. The driver, a Frenchman unknown to the secret services, was arrested shortly after the incident when he attempted to set his vehicle on fire.

According to Le Parisien, witnesses said he shouted ‘Allah Akbar’ from behind the wheel before driving into the victims. Investigators are not ruling out a psychiatric motive, but are examining every element of a terrorist nature. The scenes followed one after the other: a pedestrian was run over near the Intermarché de Dolus, then two cyclists were run over in Saint-Pierre-d’Oléron, on Rue de la Cure and Rue des Godillons, before another collision occurred on Route d’Arceau.

The man was arrested without resistance and taken into custody. Residents on the island are in shock and fear that a ‘simple walk’ could now turn into a tragedy. One of them confides: ‘We no longer feel safe anywhere.’ Many lament a feeling of abandonment as the peaceful island of Charente-Maritime is suddenly confronted with a terrifying incident.

JK Rowling condemns Glamour magazine for naming gender-confused men ‘Women of the Year’

Screengrab GBnews

Women are outraged after Glamour UK named a group of gender-confused men as ‘Women of the Year.’

On October 29, the women’s lifestyle and fashion magazine British Glamour celebrated nine gender-confused men as their 2025 Women of the Year, sparking backlash across social media as the magazine was accused of canceling real women in favor of gender-confused men.

“As trans rights face increasing threat in the UK, Glamour honours nine of the community’s most ground-breaking voices at this year’s Women of the Year Awards,” the magazine wrote in a post on X. “From fashion and music to charity and activism work, these trailblazers work tirelessly to empower, uplift and celebrate trans voices.”

Comments under the post roundly condemn the magazine for their selection of nine gender-confused men.

“Glamour is a magazine for young girls,” one user commented. “It was toxic enough when I was a teenager, pushing unrealistic beauty expectations.”

“I can’t imagine what young girls must be thinking now, you hold men up as “Women of the Year” erasing women and girls, an absolute disgrace,” the user continued.

Similarly, many prominent female figures quickly called out the magazine for essentially telling women that gender-confused men who have undergone surgery and a fashion makeover can be better women than women themselves.

“I grew up in an era when mainstream women’s magazines told girls they needed to be thinner and prettier,” Harry Potter author turned women’s activist JK Rowling wrote on X.

“Now mainstream women’s magazines tell girls that men are better women than they are,” she continued.

British rapper, author, podcaster, and public speaker Zuby likewise condemned the selection, writing, “The ‘trans movement’ is easily the most misogynistic movement in modern history. Especially because of it’s scale and mainstream acceptance.”

Additionally, Oil London, a British detransitioner, commented,” Glamour magazine UK features 9 Transgender men on the cover and calls them ‘Women of the Year.’ ”

“The magazine has called 9 trans activists ‘trailblazers’ and has awarded them with the Women of the Year award for their ‘resilience and sisterhood,’” he continued.

If it wasn’t enough for transgender athletes to steal women’s sports awards, the men are now not only claiming ‘Women of the Year’ awards but also descending women’s beauty pageants.

As LifeSiteNews previously reported, in 2023, a man named Miss Portugal advanced to compete with another man for the title of Miss Universe, a female beauty pageant now owned by a “transgender” businessman.

Similarly, in 2024, a men was crowned the winner of Miss Maryland USA, a contest that promises a “fair environment in which young women have the opportunity to develop skills that will help them win in life by being their personal best in everything they do.”
