the ruins of the Basilica of St. Benedict of Nursia in the town of Norcia

the journal The New Compass Daily published an article signed by the Prior of the Benedictine Monastery of San Benedetto in Norcia [see WHO], finished razed for earthquakes. Since we live in a society that thought is now passed from the liquid to the vaporous and that's why live each event with irrational emotionalism, no historical memory and reading skills, I believe deserves mentioning that "God punish and mercy", to paraphrase an article by John Cavalcoli ON [see WHO].

.

The fall of the Benedictine basilica, in Hometown of Blessed Benedict of Nursia, founder of Western monasticism, It is only the visible fall of an old order which for several decades was destroyed by members of the various Benedictine families.

.

In today's Church there are two historical Orders that they are paradigm of our irreversible decline: the Jesuits and the Benedictines. Not that the other Orders and Congregations are better placed, because the decadence of the religious life in general, It is now in a state in which long has exceeded the threshold of non-return.

The Jesuits are the paradigm of the worst theological drift. In fact, if we analyze with clarity the history of the last fifty years of their lives, we find that the spread of the worst theologians e sociologisms heterodox have all their work, although vacated, under Pope St. John Paul II, then under that of Benedict XVI, to spread the worst mistakes of doctrine in Latin America and the Eastern countries.

.

The nickname coined by me: Company of the Indies, It aims to indicate in a tragicomic the progressive transformation of the old, glorious and praiseworthy Society of Jesus was founded by Blessed Father Ignatius of Loyola. This Order, for decades in free fall - also in number, if we consider that in just one year of the millennium were recorded about 500 deaths and 20 new priestly ordinations in the world -, It has its own current tank vocations in India and Africa, with a slight consequently not: many new fathers are clearly animists and syncretistic, with all due respect to what was once the long and strict Catholic education to which the Jesuits were subjected in the past. Obvious consequences: If we analyze in depth the issue we discover that behind the worst aberrations born from liberation theology, the Theology of the People, by Indigenous Theology, the Theology syncretistic, until the Theology of the death of God, to follow with the infiltration of the worst theologians Protestants and Biblical Judaism within the Catholic Church, always and invariably discover that behind all of you are like capocomici Theologian and gods sociologists Jesuits.

.

When before the evidence of facts not known how to respond, but above all to deny the obvious and horrible truth, at that point usually comes the admonition: "Your pessimistic spirit and absolutist borders on lack of light and of Christian charity. In short, can that everything is rotten? There will also be good Jesuits!». Or good, we will the good Jesuits, I can witness it even better than others, It is having been the first result in the vocational path, afterward format for the ministerial priesthood also from two Jesuits belonging to the old Society of Jesus, certainly not to the modernistic and syncretistic Company of the Indies. But we are in fact talking with men of an entirely different generation, as evidence the age of one of the two still living, which it has long exceeded ninety years of age. Men trained in the most rigid orthodoxy, with a setting of military company, with an encyclopedic knowledge acquired in the course of their lives. In short: the Society of Jesus who was and who unfortunately is no longer. That glorious company that I, through some reduced elders today to four cats on their way to the tomb, I had the honor and privilege to know and to attend.

The wishful thinking - It is because of illusion -, about the fact that "... there will be some good Jesuits!», does not detract from an objective: if in a vineyard vines are attacked grapevine downy mildew, better known as late blight [1], it is useless to console themselves by saying that scattered across the rows there are - however few - even some of the healthy grapes, because regardless they, the vineyard is sick, diffusely and unfortunately irreversible.

.

Expenses, He has never seen plants or trees completely rotted, but they had one or two still green and healthy leaves? but yet, before the plants affected by communicable diseases to the other crops, I am not aware that any agronomist ever said that since the plant running and infects survived one or two healthy leaves, It could not be cut, or better left in place so that it could also infect other plants. This thing of which - speaking of the Society of Jesus -, remain responsible for the Blessed Paul VI and John Paul II to follow St., that, despite having thought of dissolving, It seems to have been persuaded not to do so, or perhaps he himself was convinced not to do so, as he explains Giovanni Cavalcoli in an article dedicated long ago the Society of Jesus [see WHO].

.

If the Jesuits are the paradigm of doctrinal decay, The Benedictines are the worst moral decadence, always according to the principle of plants and completely rotted trees, where they survive one or two still green and healthy leaves. Suffice it to say in this regard that thethe case of Montecassino, Abbey West's Mother, It is by no means an isolated case, but only the tip of the 'iceberg. In the past I wrote about the events and lived Luciferian abbot of this abbey, adhering strictly to the facts and legal documents, in which materials are contained before which would take the distances even the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah. A Head of the West's historic abbey, was in fact over a gaia Princess capricious who squandered money in luxury living, partying homosexuals and drugs [see the second part of my previous article WHO].

Alla Badia di Sant'Anselmo Primaziale in Urbe, seat of the Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation, home of the St. Anselm Pontifical Athenaeum, headquarters annex international college for theology students, The Congregation for Catholic Education, between 2007 and the 2008, after several previous calls, finally imposed to higher Benedictine Superiors to clean up the "sacred" horde walls of homosexuals within them had created a real brothel, with lots of couples living together more or less official or unofficial. Anyone who wishes can always ask for confirmation to the still healthy and well, Cardinal Zenon Grocholewski, at the time Prefect of this Congregation, that the seriousness of the case treated personally and made it finally dictate the ultimatum: "Or cleaned your College, or I'll do close ».

.

Lately, the Abbey of Grottaferrata, prelature immediately subject to the Holy See, It lost this ancient status. After the appointment of the new higher, the Belgian Benedictine Dom Michel Van Parys, the Holy See has taken the diocesan jurisdiction entrusted to the Abbot of the Abbey near Bishop of Albano Laziale. Exactly as it happened a little over a year ago for the Abbey of Montecassino, deprived of the diocesan jurisdiction exercised for centuries by Abati cassinesi and passed to the neighboring Diocese of Sora, whose Diocesan Ordinary has assumed the title of Bishop of Sora-Aquino-Pontecorvo-Montecassino.

.

What happened in the Abbey of Grottaferrata? Solita organize, even worse, the usual and by now crystallized frocismi monks, which gives us news so pompous French Catholic newspaper The cross, imputing the serious decision of the Holy See to the "frequent nocturnal comings and goings in the abbey". And this nocturnal comings and goings, strictly based on youngsters, It resulted in this serious point that the Holy See has subsequently declared invalid the ordination of some monks, as suffering from blatant and serious factory defect. Writes the French Catholic daily:

.

the Holy See would have indeed asked the Abbot of Grottaferrata to resign after complaints of residents' repeated nocturnal activities "and" back and forth frequent ". Rome had also requested the nullity pronounced several ordinations of monks of the abbey [2].

i Feedback, German group that counts among its members Dom Notker Wolf, Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation [see WHO]

I always remember with horror stories I made to me in Rome as an ambassador, devout Catholic, also always healthy and well beyond that with extraordinary memory, when he told me that on his return from his mission in a war zone at the beginning of 2000, He decided to retire for a few days in the Abbey of Praglia for the Easter Triduum. I told the diplomat desolate in front of my co-worker: "In the guesthouse of the Abbey two young French we were hosted, those in Roman jargon are commonly referred to as marchettari, one of whom slept in a room adjoining my. And all night I had to hear the comings and goings of the monks'. He ended with the diplomat bitterness: "That was my Easter Triduum in the Abbey of Praglia after my long diplomatic mission in a war zone, in which I had lived for a couple of years fully armored inside the embassy '.

.

Abbey of Monte Oliveto Moste and its current Abate, known by senior monks ever since he was a young cleric - and of which the writer has had to direct its time and personal knowledge - spread a veil, sure no one will have the imprudence to lift issues vilified monastic honor, given that within the "sacred" walls happened just about everything, how can testify many former monks, several of which emerged from that abbey to go to the secular clergy, ready to report to any ecclesiastical authority that repeatedly witnessed to me: "Within those walls I saw before the moral corruption, hereinafter hell '. Perhaps the same hell that he sees the postulant 38 years in that 2007 He killed himself by jumping from a window. Obviously, the face of such tragedy, the justification was good and ready: "The poor fellow was suffering from mental disorders". A justification before which, however, is a question as pertinent as logical: of when, They are allowed in the oldest and noblest Benedictine abbeys of poor people suffering from mental disorders? Or we are we to infer that an old abbey performs volunteer service as a mental health center? In short: the real disturbed, It is the one who killed himself in despair, or those who have remained inside, starting by the then Abbot Dom Michelangelo Maria Tiribilli, at least devoid of introspective ability and spirit of the Christian vocation discernment, after following in his time for many years the formation of candidates to sacred orders clerics, many of which have become the gay monks flickering, among which then, near, They were chosen and elected abbots bearing altrettanza and graceful gaiety?

More than a few personalities of the Benedictine world involved in scandals in recent decades often unspeakable, all linked to the penalty from which moral problems are always born of ordinary homosexuality stories, sometimes even of pedophilia, such as Metropolitan Archbishop of Vienna, the Benedictine Hans Wilhelm Groër, forced to leave the Archdiocese in 2005. His successor, Christopher von Schoenborn, Order of Preachers, In the 2008 publicly asked forgiveness from Austrian Catholics for acts committed by his predecessor, admitting to that effect all the facts to him charged [cf. WHO].

.

Just as fate indignitosa touched former Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation, Dom Rembert G. Weakland, spearhead of the ultra liberalism, that at the end of his term he was elected Bishop of Milwaukee in the United States of America, where he was accused of sexual harassment by a former student of theology, from which he tried to buy the silence with large sums of money stolen to the coffers of the diocese [3].

.

Dom Nokter Wolf, Bavarian abbot of the Abbey of Sankt Ottilien, lampante catholic-protestant setting and exponent of the crudest modernist progressivism - given that there are fine modernist with deep and unique culture -, It was the most worthy successor of Dom Rembert G. Weakland in the office of abbot primate of the Benedictine Confederation. Skilful exploiter of its position, Dom Nokter Wolf has devoted mostly to personal entrepreneurship, giving to the press one after the other books made ridiculous by the lack of elementary theological dignity, well as being without logical sense. A Bavarian small in stature and always smiling, good Dom Nokter Wolf, more like the stereotype of speck Neapolitan instead the Nordic Teutonic blond washed eyes of ice and high physical stature. Remembered as such - that is, as a speck - from dozens and dozens of former students of St. Anselm, especially when the morning, comes in the monastic choir, He showed visible signs revealing than perhaps he had not yet disposed of the alcoholic spirit of the previous evening.

On the figures and personalities "prominent" the Benedictine world of recent decades could write pages of rivers, all tested and documented as regards sex, money and even drugs, as in the case of the Abbot of Monte Cassino, cocaine last stage. the triad: money, sex and drugs, But lacked the Rock and Roll, thing that he thought the penultimate abbot primate, Dom Nokter Wolf, so as not to miss anything in this merciless and painful decline of the Benedictine glory that was.

.

Question from one million Euros, which should respond to the Holy See, making money in this way this sum to be distributed among the poor of existential suburbs : if a number so worrying and high Benedictine monks, that after becoming abbots of historical abbeys, abbot primate of the Benedictine Confederation, promoted by the Popes and Bishops raised to the dignity of cardinal, Gone are involved in sex scandals, money and even drugs; if they have been elected to the highest offices within the monastic communities, and later within the universal Church, because they were at the time to choose the best, maybe someone intends to question, quickly and well, at what levels can instead be the worst that populate abbeys and monasteries?

.

When this year the abbots of Confederation Benedictine Congregation They gathered in Rome to elect a successor to Dom Nokter Wolf, a couple of friends who have close relationships within the Primatial Abbey of St. Anselm in Urbe, they told me: "For days we have" tasted "a vision “extraordinary”. Under the eyes we had a slew of abbots gathered to elect a new abbot primate '. They concluded by saying: "It seemed to be a gathering of gay pride ».

.

Long would be the origins of speech and of the reasons entirely. The Benedictines, and Germany have always had their largest nucleus and their numerical stronghold, They were severely affected by the best of the worst of the post-conciliar theologians who have given life to their staff Council egomenico. But since the conversation would be precisely along, I will just summarize my old conference in Rieti years ago held together Academician Pontifical John Cavalcoli, in which he for a verse, I on the other hand, We explained to the large audience that the dogma of the crisis generates a doctrinal crisis, then faith. And the loss of the doctrine, consequently the loss of faith dimension, It generates inevitably before the moral crisis and then the worst moral decadence, that is all the fruit and consequence of the doctrinal crisis.

.

one of several booklets of Dom Nokter Wolf, if anything our readers were not yet clear how well not learn from monks like him …

And this moral crisis, the Benedictines are paradigm. Still without generalizing, but reaffirming the principle of the tree and now rotting and diseased plant, in which survive one or two healthy leaves. Therefore, the fall of the Benedictine Basilica erected in Norcia in the birthplace of the Blessed Benedict, It is the visible fall of an order that has long since decayed doctrinally, so morally. Just as it is morally decayed Europe, after having lost the faith. Europe was born as an idea and then developed in a concrete right in the largest of the ancient circuit and glorious Benedictine abbeys, in which, after the fall of Roman Empire, It was first preserved and then spread the best science knowledge; that same Europe of which the Blessed Benedict is the Patron Saint and Venerable, after being in Europe itself the main architect.

Pope Francis visits the Lutheran Community of Rome

In an interview in 2013 the Supreme Pontiff Francis said: "Proselytism is a solemn nonsense ' [cf. WHO]. Some Catholics accused the Successor of Peter to demolish the Catholic doctrine and to contradict the Gospel precept that commands: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, whoever does not believe will be condemned " [1]. Today, the same are relaunching these accusations while the Pope is about to travel to Sweden to participate in the celebration of 500 years of psuedo “reform” Lutheran; a visit that perhaps could also avoid, because nothing we Catholics have to celebrate before all'eresiarca Luther. The Vicar of Christ on earth does not need some of our Office defenses, But it is worth remembering that the proselytism, in its negative sense, He has not been convicted only by the Holy Father Francis, but by Jesus Christ Himself: "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!, For you cross land and sea to make one proselyte, and, got it, ye make him a son of hell worse than you!» [2].

.

Several times the Holy Father Francis defined proselytism as contrary to ecumenism, perhaps explaining the troubles which in itself can create proselytism. Then we proceed to clarify, from the same term that could be misunderstood by those who do not first know the etymological root of the words. It derives from "proselyte", the greek Proselyte, lemma used in the New Testament to indicate the "converted", verbatim: He-who-is-approached [3]. The origin of the word has nothing derogatory or inappropriate. In "proselytism" originally simply means "proselytizing", which it is obviously a good work. Except that Christ already shows a completely wrong way to make converts:

.

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!, For you cross land and sea to make one proselyte, and, got it, ye make him a son of hell worse than you!» [4].

.

Hence the negative sense of proselytism. so be careful about how we proclaim the Gospel, how we encourage people to repent and to come closer to Christ and the Church, by what means, by what method, with what feelings, for what purpose. We must also ask ourselves: And the true Gospel that we proclaim, or ideas are picked up on by impostors of trendy theology? The work of evangelization, We follow the signs that come from the Church or act to attract the sympathy of the world? In this work we want to state our ideas and attract disciples we applaud, or teach humbly and courageously what the Church teaches accepting suffering and adversities? We are moved by the authentic spirit of service and compassion for sinners, or simply by the desire to impose on others with our doctrinal novelties?

.

The tip does not proselytize on persuasion, but on the suggestion, It does not provide signs of credibility, but playing on sentiment, does not show things difficult, but only the comforts. It does not demonstrate the reasonableness of believing, but it stimulates the emotions, hides one hand the defects of their co-religionists, and exaggerates their quality, while on the other denigrates religion counterparty. Use dishonest means to convince, or exerts undue pressure, prospecting perhaps nonexistent benefits. It is silent on the difficulties of religion that proposes and tickles his passions, It does not stimulate the responsibility, but creates plagiarized persons. No form of free people, but creates, as in the case of Islamists, of lemmings and fanatics, ready if necessary to kill those who do not accept the forced conversion, unaware that the gift of freedom and free will is contained in the mystery of man's creation, to whom God has always offered during the whole of Revelation Mystery, You never have imposed, much less with violence.

.

Proselytism is contrary to ecumenism not because proselytism wants to persuade the other party of the goodness of the values ​​that the proposed, This is also in ecumenism; nor because the proselytizing does convince the separated brother to enter the Catholic Church - even though this is the ultimate goal of ecumenism -, but because the proselytizing refuses to admit that the other party retains certain values ​​of Catholicism, or because they do not want to admit certain historical errors of the Church, or because the proselytizing is his brother with contempt or arrogance. Proselytism, so, It is an excess of zeal, the very uno sleale, by its bitter and aggressive nature in doing a work in itself important and doverosissima: evangelization. It has no reason and supernatural purpose and is based on methods and purposes merely human, unclean or dishonest, sometimes only nationalistic, political or power. It is a job in itself good, but performed poorly, so that you get results illusory or counterproductive: or brother is deceived, or embracing Catholicism of bogus foundations, or embracing a false Catholicism. In these cases the "converts" are not true converts, but people who pretend to believe in order to obtain temporal advantages, or not to be persecuted or marginalized.

.

The Second Vatican Council teaches at No.. 3 from the Bond : "To the only body of Christ on earth" - the Catholic Church - "they should be fully incorporated who already belong in any way to the People of God", ie non-Catholic Christians, belonging to "not small communities, who became separated from full communion with the Catholic Church ". So they must rejoin the Catholic Church. these communities, although sometimes the "deficiencies" serious - heresies - that "constitute impediments to the full ecclesiastical communion", however, they maintain "a certain communion, although imperfect, with the Catholic Church ". In fact, they, though "not enjoy that unity, that Jesus Christ wanted to give to all those whom he regenerated and vivified together for one body and for a new life ", However "they retain some elements and even many and reported" - dogmas -, "By which the Catholic Church itself is built up and vivified. All these things come from Christ and lead to Him, that they belong to the one Church of Christ ", that is the Catholic Church, which he possesses "the fullness of grace and truth", that "only by means of the Catholic Church of Christ, which it is the universal help toward salvation, you can get all the fullness of the means of salvation ". However, "the Spirit of Christ has not refrained from using these communities as means of salvation", useful tools but not sufficient.

.

The non-Catholic communities therefore possess some means of salvation and why, for them all, They must enter the Catholic Church, which alone possesses the fullness of the means of salvation.

.

From this it appears that the Council document, although there are divisions among Christians, this does not mean that the Catholic Church is divided against itself, or that the current conflict between the Catholic Church and other churches will be resolved in the union of all in a supposed "Church" broader and higher, that embraces all, because this is false ecumenism. This supposed "Church", supreme and superior to the Catholic Church, does not exist, why the Church, the only one founded by Christ, is none other than the Roman Catholic Church, one and indivisible, so, in this sense, a Catholic Church separated from the others or herself, that should merge with others in a super-Church, It never existed, nor ever will exist.

.

The non-existence of Christian communities separated from Rome It is not a sign that the Church's unity is broken, that the Church is as it were "shattered", to which the parties or the Church pieces - the various Churches - should be led back to unity, in the likeness of a vase, that it must be reconstructed by bringing together between them the pieces, why things, as it is also apparent from the n. 3 of this document, they are not like that. Instead, the image that it suggests to us - "they are detached" - is that of the branch that detaches from the vine [5]. The phenomenon of non-Catholic community is not the sign that the screw is torn, is not a sign that it is, as it were, went into shreds: it is obvious that in these conditions the screw may not even live, but it presupposes a very much alive and strong lives, from which They came off the branches. An account is in fact the separation between A and B and an account is the separation of A from B. The phenomenon of the dissident community is of the second type and not the first. Are the branches that can not live without the screw, not vice versa. And if the community separated brethren They are still living, it means that you are not totally detached, but they retain a certain union with the screw. It is that what the Council wishes, when he says that the dissident communities not in full communion with the Catholic Church.

.

But there are also false ecumenicalists they say: we should not put it so tragically. This is not torn or anything like that. The so-called "separate community" from Rome are not really separate, but simply "different". Now, diversity is an asset, It is not a defect. Therefore should not be removed, but respected and promoted. Because of this, Rome, It can not expect that all other communities are equal to itself. It is therefore, according to them, a positive phenomenon, a phenomenon of pluralism and diversity, of different ways, equally legitimate, to live the Gospel and to be Christians. Hence the "many faiths" and the prevailing interest for diversity at the expense of the truth, as one who appreciated the sufferer because it is "different" from the healthy. They conceive of faith as if it were an opinion: as there are many opinions, so there are "many faiths". But faith is the truth and the truth as adherence to the object is a single. If Jesus is God, deny that Jesus is God is not a different faith, but it is a false faith. If God is Triune, deny that God is Triune is not a different faith, It is a falsehood and so on. But there are many truths of faith, in the sense that there are many dogmas; but for each of them it gives only one interpretation, that given by the Church, outside of which there are no other.

.

They conceive the unity and pluralism of the Church on the model of the Swiss Confederation: no one flock with one shepherd, but a federation of folds in a college of pastors. But if here Jesus speaks to the future - "they will become" - he did not mean that the unity of the Church under him is an eschatological goal, but simply referred to the fact that the time Jesus was calling, She was collecting the sheep - "I have other sheep" - because it was the time of the formation of the Church. But it, to St. Paul's day is already formed, It is already "one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism " [6], even if it is like an organic body with many different functions under one head, Christ, whose Vicar on earth is Peter [7].

.

How the Council presents ecumenism, Instead we see how false those conceptions that ecumenism would like to introduce as an interpretation of the doctrine of the Council and would like to call "proselytism" just what the council instead prescribes. This false interpretation, indeed, ecumenism demands that it means simply taking note of the positions of the separated brother in the idea that they simply reflect a "different" way of salvation, that must be respected in its diversity, so the presence in those positions is lost sight, of errors that need to be refuted and then you neglect to open the entrance to his brother in the Catholic Church.

.

Vice by default in the field of ecumenism, typical of modernism, It is given by the negligence, effect in turn indifference and relativism, which it is a false ecumenism. The false ecumenist confuses the value of truth with that of diversity. The modernist ecumenist not care objectivity and universality of truth in its absolute opposition to the false, but be careful only to diversity and makes it an absolute, an idol, which sacrifices the distinction between true and false, reducing everything to the subjective, all'opinabile and "different". For him, one who has fallen into heresy, It is not the victim of false, but it is simply a "different", as well as simply a Franciscan is different from a Dominican. The separated brother It should therefore not be correct, but he left in his idea, as well as to any Dominican we can think of to say to a Franciscan who to save himself must be a Dominican, although the Thomists do not always agree with Scotists.

.

Today, with the excuse of ecumenism, pluralism and freedom of thought, We do not notice the endangered brothers, of those who live "in darkness and the shadow of death", so nothing is done to save them. He responds to God asking his brother account: "Am I my brother's keeper"? [8]. Here then per slack, negligence, skepticism, fear, opportunism or acquiescence to sin, It does not understand or will not understand that admonish the sinner in a correct manner and at the right time is not a fight, a convict, a bother him or violence, is not one tear to his right beliefs, but it is to be a caring doctor who provides care, is a work of mercy.

.

Another misconception of ecumenism It is one that conceives it as a simple "meet halfway" between Catholics and non-Catholics, as if the one and the other part were to leave something to meet the other. Now this may be true and proper to the human level and charity, but not in relation to the demands of the truth, which they are those that most characterize Ecumenism. Indeed, to stop the only relationship with the Lutherans, which it is the greatest problem of ecumenism, these brothers must realize that it is not Rome that must allow correct Luther, but it is they who must leave correct from Rome. So Rome can and should meet them in charity, my he path of truth They must do everything their way to Rome, waiting for them with open arms, we certainly can not be the ones to go to celebrate Luther, as if he had really been a reformer.

.

Another form of ecumenism wrong is to those Catholics who, on the basis of their studies they consider more advanced, They allow themselves to be accused of injustice and excessive severity convictions against Luther uttered by Pope Leo X and the Council of Trent, as if the Church has not noticed that on certain issues it considered heretics Lutherans, he was not a heretic, but Catholic. Now, if such judgment may be worth against certain opponents of Luther passionate, hasty, indeed unjust and overly strict, that they have misunderstood some of his intentions and positions, This judgment is completely senseless and gravely insulting and presumptuous, when referring to the interventions made by the Church, especially by scholars who call themselves Catholics, who forget that the Church, if it is infallible in teaching us the truth of faith, It is infallible also in directing what is contrary.

.

True ecumenism It is framed with all its consequent difficulties in the broader evangelization accomplished in charity, justice and mercy. Therefore, it takes some evangelical paradigms, as the following: it is headed first to the parables of the prodigal son and his lost sheep, without forgetting the parable of the king who gave a wedding feast for his son and sends his servants to call those invited to the wedding [9]. The Catholic Church is this banquet and the guests are separated brethren. We know that many of them do not feel at all prodigals O lost sheep, but the great theologians and biblical scholars. And they do not see in the Catholic Church no buffet, but only bleak and food gone bad, or at least one of those meetings where student to be able to eat you have to bring along their own. But that means then that initial and indispensable task of ecumenism is that Catholics do understand these brothers, with all charity, skill and patience, in need of conversion and that the light of the world are not theirs, but the light comes from Rome.

.

Blessed Pontiff Pius IX, imminence of the Second Vatican Council's call, He wrote the Apostolic Letter Now you all [10] Protestants to invite them to join the Roman Church. A similar initiative also took the Venerable Pope Pius XII in the Encyclical mystical body [11] the 1943. Unfortunately the response was very weak. In the meantime there were frequent ecumenical meetings between non-Catholics, but the Papacy, at the moment, was not conducive to that they will participate Catholics too, for fear that it could somehow spread the idea among the dissidents that Rome had given up his primacy. Meanwhile, however, he was growing among many Christians, Catholics and non-Catholics, perhaps as a reaction to the horrors of the recent World War, the desire to gather together in the common values. It so happened that the Second Vatican Council went to meet this desire with the Decree on Ecumenism, in which, however, it is stressed very clearly the value of papal primacy and the Catholic Church itself.

Ecumenical activities belong to all Christians desirous of unity and communion, but it is clear that the Supreme Pontiff, as the Vicar of Christ, common father of all Christians, beginning, ensures, guardian and promoter of unity of all the sons of God, It can not help but feel supremely desire that all the disciples of Christ is currently separated or dissidents enter fully into the Church founded by him and not feel involved in the first person to operate all we can for this purpose. The frequent visits that the Popes by the end of the Council are in their travels to separated brethren, express and embody the hope of all Catholics that these brothers, as the Council says, 'Be fully incorporated "to the Catholic Church.

.

Ecumenism theologians of both parties play an important role in the clarification and proposed solutions always open disputes. Catholic theologians operate effectively against the non-Catholic party showing the points of Catholic doctrine absent in their theology, while addressing the objections against Catholicism. But it is clear that the points that most concern the Doctrine of the Faith, only the Roman Pontiff can have the last word, for ribadirli, or to clarify them or to correct or to address concerns. These points engage the faith and not simply theology, They can then be treated with definitive authority only by the Supreme Pontiff.

.

The separated brother, so, It is not simply a "different" to respect and leave as is, to "let free", as some say, because this is a convenient excuse for shirking their responsibilities. The separated brother It is an erring brother, in good or bad faith, which it is in danger of being lost, so it should be helped, warned and corrected, always naturally that you leave correct. Of course, to rebuke or expose the superb it is just to pull him his hatred with the result that the face of more and worse. A Jesus himself was costly rebuke the Pharisees, but on the other hand, we should not follow his example? And they did not do so all the saints? What is the saint who has not pulled on him the hatred of the world and false brothers? Who does not care about the sinner and not reproaches, being able to do it, She says she loves him, but really he hates him and himself. Do not forget that even the reproach made in a correct manner is charity, this is also ecumenism. It is not only the charity Mercy, but also the severity.

.

Ecumenism has two purposes. It has as its immediate end and more specifically to do so, through dialogue and a joint search, that all Christians are found together in the sharing of the same fundamental truths, that were common to all, even after breakage. Must here know each other better, with greater benevolence and with a historical-critical method more effective than that of the past, dispel some misconceptions or correct some errors in interpretation of the past., illustrate common truth.

.

This being together in the same truth, It is already a great achievement, It is a high and beautiful destination, source of harmony and peace; But, It is not an end in itself, there is still some way to go, because it is only the basis for the continuation of a fruitful and constructive dialogue, whose goal further to put on the table frankly, objectivity, serenity and hope the controversial points. It is at this point that we need more than ever to invoke the Holy Spirit. This is the most difficult point, where dialogue today is jammed and was sometimes even falsified. We must have the courage to go beyond, toward the final goal. Indeed, while Catholics make too much respect, They seem intimidated, without taking apostolic initiatives in front of the rigid positions and exhibitions of non-Catholics, the latter - we think especially the Protestants - theologians seem rather have tacitly or explicitly made a wicked pact, a dangerous liaison, with modernist theologians, in order to penetrate the Protestant ideas among Catholics, in a subtle form and masked, under color of "progressivism", so that Catholics become Protestants in fact without realizing and believing that they remain Catholic, thereby giving rise to a colossal falsification of ecumenism.

.

Let's take an example of this deadlock in which clearly it appears the resistance of the dissidents and the weakness of the arguments and took the position of Catholics, which often, instead of supporting the papal authority with good reason, refuting the Protestant positions, showing little respect for the Pontifical Authority or despising the post-conciliar exercise, as do the Lefebvrians; or weakening its doctrinal strength, like the modernists. But here is an example: truth of faith accepted by all Christians is that Christ is the head of the Celestial Church, ma, outside of Catholics, all others believe to be the truth of faith that Christ's earthly governments Church by means of a Vicar established by him, ie the Supreme Pontiff, Successor of Peter, as the visible head of all Christians on this earth, but the government in person through the Holy Spirit.

.

The idea of ​​the Roman Pontiff as head of the Church and representative of Christ on earth, the eyes of non-Catholics would be a human invention, an injustice in Rome, desire to dominate, longing of the Roman Empire, misleading and dangerous, because the Supreme Pontiff, that man is fallible like everyone else, instead lead us to Christ, could stand against Him. The Supreme Pontiff, at maximum, It will be the Bishop of Rome, or a bishop like everyone else, Peter's successor just because Peter was bishop in Rome, but he can not claim to be the Bishop of the Universal Church. For them, Christ, He would not want to be his Vicar visible head, but the earthly Church would be well enough organized as a set of communities united under the leadership of Christ and the Holy Spirit. Such as infallible guides of these? would this, according to them, the true will of Christ. Here's an important issue, about which we Catholics are called to give evidence and to show separated brethren, with all charity and wisdom, but also with sure competence and unswerving firmness and clarity, the way to get closer to Rome and, as the Council says, for you to, under the motion of the Holy Spirit, 'They are fully incorporated "in the Church. We do not have to, on a point like this, resign ourselves to their unbelief, or give them the impression that we give them reason, or we are going to celebrate, instead of correcting them.

.

Ecumenism also involves two levels of implementation. They are the doctrinal and charitable, which will involve and support each other. It is based on the first to move to the second. The second one, however, It is of immediate and easy implementation, while the first, at least in its final fullness, It is very difficult to achieve and has not yet been fully achieved. The doctrinal level is the most specific, and is nothing more than an application of the general duty of evangelization in the field of the relations of Catholics with non-Catholic Christians. the evangelization, in general, It is the proclamation of the Gospel, by means of which, with the help of the Holy Spirit, we lead the world to obey Christ.

.

With l'ecumenism, we Catholics, based on the common acceptance, together with i separated brethren, of those truths of faith that we have in common with them, we work so that they, freed from "impediments" and those "deficiencies", which act as obstacles to their taking the "fullness of that truth which has been entrusted to the Catholic Church" can, under the motion of the Holy Spirit, be "fully incorporated" in the Catholic Church [12].

.

the Catholic, in the exercise of this delicate appearance or level of ecumenism, It must be very careful to distinguish the doctrine Catholic in itself, in its divine fullness, unerringly and perfectly preserved by the Magisterium of the Church, which must always be the head with total fidelity, from the his personal Catholic culture, which, however pure and orthodox, It can not be infallible, for which it can, on some points, be incomplete or erroneous, without his being aware of it. Because of this, while a non-Catholic can not afford to correct or supplement the Catholic doctrine as such, may very well, by virtue of his knowledge of the truths of the Christian faith, correcting or instructing a Catholic, that lacks on a given point.

.

The other level of ecumenism It is an application of the general virtue of charity to the specific field of ecumenism. And here it is clear that if in the Catholic doctrine will guide the non-Catholic, and will help him to correct his mistakes and to fill the gaps, as the Council teaches, in this aspect of charity is a must reciprocity, Since the Catholic as the non-Catholic does not escape the common condition of sinners, sons of Adam, with the same time of mutually complementary gifts from God, which must be put to good use for the benefit of each other. And though the Catholic in principle have more and better means of grace that no dissident, it is not inconceivable that these are more virtuous and less sinful, through increased goodwill and a better use of supernatural means at its disposal.

.

L'ecumenism, undoubted expression of brotherly love, It encloses its profound benefits and is a good rule of peaceful coexistence between Catholics and non-Catholics. Now, brotherly love is moving in two directions: do good and remove evil. There is therefore a charity promoter and a corrective charity. Both have their application in ecumenism. Indeed, in the promotion of good, Ecumenism encourages humility, loyalty, the Onesti, I love the truth, mutual understanding and solidarity, the shared commitment to works of justice and mercy, for the public good and human rights, for the promotion of science, arts and culture, a common Christian witness, where there are common values.

.

There are two ways to remove the evil in his brother: or compassion, thanks to which we free his brother from the evil of punishment, ie from suffering, or correction or admonition, for which we free him from the evil of guilt, from sin and error. In both cases, order for the operation to succeed, must the brother put us the good will. There are none so ill that does not heal and there is no greater sinner than you does not repent.

.

In this field of charity, is the compassion that the correction should push the Catholic zeal to lead the separated brother towards the fullness of truth and of communion with the Church. the dissident, for its part, He must listen to the impulses of the Spirit of truth and love, that led him to abandon his mistakes and bad habits, not conform to the fullness of Christian virtue and to seek full communion with the Church.
