On his return flight from France, Pope Leo XIV is asked if he is "worried are you that AI could pose catastrophic risks to humanity or even wipe it out entirely", to which he responds: "If someone were to ask me, am I in panic mode? No, I'm not. I sleep at night. I do think that the concerns raised by many of the experts, specialists in AI, should be taken seriously. I don't think that is fake news, as some have said, to try and cause whether financial or some other kind of benefit. It's interesting to note that just today I read that the head of NVIDIA claims that he has found some way of inserting into AI certain guardrails, if you will, or limits so that they won't go outside of their particular units and cause the damage that people are talking about."
Leo XIV invokes Europe’s Christian roots in defence of human rights and migration. Pope Leo XIV offered a sweeping account of European civilisation and its future in a September 28 landmark speech at the Robert Schuman Congress Centre in Metz, France. Speaking on “The Roots of Europe for Peace and Unity,” Leo XIV’s argument was, at its deepest level, anthropological: Europe’s future depends upon its understanding of the human person. Leo XIV began with Europe’s Greek, Roman and Christian inheritance, but emphasised that “European civilization is also the fruit of centuries-long encounters.” He specifically cited “the presence of Arab culture in the Iberian Peninsula.” He then turned to the contribution of Benedictine monasticism. After recalling its role in caring for the poor, sick and elderly, as well as in universities, hospitals, medicine, science, architecture, law and political organisation, he declared: “Without this monastic tradition, European civilization as we know it would …ပိုမို
At a moment in history when relations between nations "are becoming increasingly barbaric," dialogue and multilateralism remain "the best antidote to the desire for domination, which lies at the root of every conflict," Pope Leo XIV said.
A well-staged Papal event. Days of saturation coverage, politicians lining up, interfaith delegations, enormous crowds and journalists analysing every gesture: Leo XIV’s visit to France has become much more than a trip. Whatever one thinks of the motives behind it, secular French media and laicist public institutions have helped turn the visit into a national event — and staged the image of a Catholic revival in one of Europe’s most famously secular republics.
The World celebrates him: All glory is given to this person who systematically destroys Our Church. The mainstream media loves him. At the same time Christ is cast out, abused by him as a veneer for his synodal poison
The blocked video above about the UN's special Rights Watch is loaded with Zionist propaganda, though tha agency he cites should be abolished along with the UN.
Birds of a feather flock together for a relaxed round-table meeting in Metz: Leo XIV sat down with a small group of European leaders and dignitaries — several of whom have rather compromised records on life issues. Around the table were Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, Prince Albert II and Princess Charlène of Monaco, Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg, Luxembourg PM Luc Frieden, Andorra’s Co-Prince Bishop Josep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat, and former European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.
À l'issue de l'événement organisé à Metz sous le titre « Aux racines de l'Europe », le Pape a rencontré certaines des personnalités présentes lors d'un entretien privé dans une salle du Palais des Congrès. Dix invités étaient présents, dont les Macron, le prince Albert et Charlène, M. Frieden et M. Juncker.
Pope Leo Visied Cloistered Carmelite Nuns and Met Sick Pilgrims in Lourdes | SG News Pope Leo visited cloistered Carmelite nuns in Lourdes on September 27, 2026, during a quieter and deeply prayerful moment of his apostolic visit to France. The Pope entered the Carmelite monastery for a private meeting with the contemplative sisters, whose hidden life is dedicated primarily to prayer. The encounter offered a striking contrast to the large public gatherings that marked much of his pilgrimage to Lourdes. Earlier, Pope Leo met sick and disabled pilgrims at the Accueil Notre-Dame centre, where he greeted families, blessed a child and personally assisted a woman using a walking frame. During his encounter with the sick, the Pope stressed the dignity of every human person and reminded those suffering from illness and disability that they are “not a burden.” Lourdes holds a special place in Catholic devotion as the site where the Blessed Virgin Mary is believed to have appeared 18 times to St …ပိုမို
Pope Leo XIV met and blessed children from the Catholic Marcel Van School at Metz-Nancy-Lorraine Airport. Marcel Van is an école hors contrat: it operates without a contract with the French state. That means it receives none of the usual state funding and has greater educational independence.

The Pope doesn't merely recognize that non-Christians can perform good acts. He attributes “fruitfulness” to “religious traditions” themselves
False religions are “fruitful” and “guardians of life” – Leo XIV Leo XIV claimed a “fruitfulness of religious traditions” that is in service of peace and fraternity. Speaking today in Metz at an interreligious gathering, Leo XIV quoted his predecessor Pope Francis who wrote, “Dialogue between the followers of different religions does not take place simply for the sake of diplomacy, consideration or tolerance… ‘the goal of dialogue is to establish friendship, peace and harmony’.” Leo added using the plural: “Religions are guardians of life, for they affirm its sacred value”. Addressing those gathered, Leo XIV concluded his speech by thanking them for their “closeness and presence.” “May the infinite goodness and wisdom of God accompany us and teach us to live ever more fully as his children and as brothers and sisters to one another.” #newsKugkmyzhpo
A drone show lit up the night sky over Lourdes on Sunday, forming sacred images and the motto of Pope Leo XIV’s visit: “So that the world may have life.” Earlier in the evening, Leo XIV joined Lourdes’ famous torchlight procession, walking among tens of thousands of candle-carrying pilgrims — a different approach from his predecessors, who presided over the procession from a terrace.

Irish Teen Brings Ailing Cousin to Lourdes for Pope Leo’s Blessing | SG News A deeply moving moment unfolded at Lourdes as 14-year-old Whitney Connors travelled from Wexford, Ireland, with her 35-year-old cousin Ann, who has lived with a degenerative disease since birth. Whitney made the journey with one hope: that Ann would receive a special blessing from Pope Leo during his visit to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes. “We came from Ireland to get Ann a special blessing from the Pope because she’s not very well,” Whitney said. “She has been sick since birth, and I just hope she gets her intentions.” Throughout their time at the sanctuary, Whitney stayed close to her cousin, pushing her wheelchair through the crowds and caring for her during the Mass. Their journey ended with the moment they had hoped for. Pope Leo personally met and blessed Ann, fulfilling what the family described as a cherished dream. Whitney said the family felt blessed simply to be in Lourdes and to experience …ပိုမို
Irische Jugendliche bringt kranke Cousine für den Segen von Papst Leo nach Lourdes | SG News Ein zutiefst bewegender Moment ereignete sich in Lourdes, als die 14-jährige Whitney Connors aus Wexford (Irland) gemeinsam mit ihrer 35-jährigen Cousine Ann anreiste; Ann leidet seit ihrer Geburt an einer degenerativen Erkrankung. Whitney unternahm die Reise mit einer einzigen Hoffnung: dass Ann während des Besuchs von Papst Leo im Wallfahrtsort Unserer Lieben Frau von Lourdes einen besonderen Segen erhalten würde. „Wir sind aus Irland gekommen, damit Ann einen besonderen Segen vom Papst erhält, denn es geht ihr nicht gut“, sagte Whitney. „Sie ist von Geburt an krank, und ich hoffe einfach, dass ihre Gebetsanliegen erhört werden.“ Während ihres Aufenthalts am Wallfahrtsort wich Whitney nicht von der Seite ihrer Cousine; sie schob deren Rollstuhl durch die Menschenmenge und kümmerte sich während der Messe um sie. Ihre Reise gipfelte in jenem Moment, auf den sie gehofft hatten: Papst Leo traf Ann …ပိုမို

On September 26, about 200 faithful of the Society of St. Pius X (FSSPX) made their annual pilgrimage to the Canadian Martyrs’ Shrine in Midland, Ontario. Their published programme scheduled veneration of the relics at the Shrine at 3 p.m. The pilgrims were denied entrance to the church. According to LifeSiteNews.com, this was ordered by the Archdiocese of Toronto. The FSSPX has made this pilgrimage for years. In September 2025, more than 500 FSSPX pilgrims attended. In contrast to the denial of entry to the FSSPX pilgrims, in July 2026 the Archdiocese of Toronto advertised the annual Tamil pilgrimage at the same Shrine. Its announcement invited “Tamil Catholics and other Tamil-speaking devotees” to a programme including Rosary, Eucharist and Adoration, concluding: “All Are Welcome!” Picture: LifeSiteNews.com, #newsDemzixxpwy
Amazing shrine. Wife and I took the trip to Midland ON about 5 years ago. The vastness looking out from the Overlook platform to the river was expansive. It is hard to believe the Indians and Jesuit Missionaries paddled these great distances. Fall colors were spectacular. The restored Indian village was so interesting to see.

Pope Leo XIV spent nearly the entire cruise from Lourdes to Metz in the cockpit of Air France’s A321 — about 30 minutes. Copilot Érik Margueritte says the aviation-minded pope asked numerous questions about the aircraft and its systems. When two French Rafales flew alongside, the crew handed Leo the radio. He spoke directly to the fighter pilots, blessing them and military personnel working to protect people and promote peace worldwide.
All for the show: In the - recorded - cockpit of Air France's Airbus A321, the pope exchanges with the crew during the flight between Lourdes and Metz. An exceptional moment up close with the pilots, between aviation, sharing, and emotion.
