The inscription above the aisles of the cathedral of Syracuse: Syracuse is the daughter of the Church of St. Peter at Antioch after the first dedicated to Christ [the Church of Syracuse is the first daughter of the Apostle Saint Peter and the second one after the Church of Antioch]

Within in a matter not pertinent issues of our magazine, it does not deal with topical, but only of ecclesial theology and pastoral updating, even if the fact on which the comment relates spend a fact of ecclesiastical nature.

.

We start from a given: the title given does not convey the idea, because one of Syracuse is not only a great Church made so by his being old, Church is a glorious. Who enters his metropolitan cathedral was struck by the columns supporting the two aisles file, these are the columns of the ancient Doric temple dedicated to Athena, dating from the seventh century B.C.. Above the columns of these aisles dominated by the written: «Syracuse is in the Church of St. Peter at Antioch Christ after the daughter of the first dedicated ».

The inscription above the aisles of the cathedral of Syracuse

Church of apostolic foundation, Syracuse is "the first daughter of the Blessed Apostle Peter and second after the Church of Antioch", as indicated by the venerable Latin inscription above the aisles. The Blessed Apostle will in fact sent the Martian bishop to erect and, a few years later, He was visited by the Blessed Apostolo Paolo during an apostolic journey documented in the Acts of the Apostles: "We landed in Syracuse, where we stayed three days' [At 28,13]. With the local Christian community the Blessed Apostle he entertained in the catacombs dedicated after St. Giovanni Evangelista, which incidentally is the oldest of the catacombs of Rome.

Syracuse has given the Church a figure of particular importance, if we consider that the Beata martire Lucy of Syracuse, together with Agata, Agnese, Cecilia and Anastasia, are the great martyrs mentioned in the Roman Canon of the Mass. And while many of today's large diocese in the central and northern parts of our country were still far from being erected centuries, during the first councils and synods of the Church of Syracuse Bishop signature appears on documents shortly after that of the Bishop of Rome. Even today, in the heart of the ancient Greek city of Syracuse, which it is the island of Ortigia [cf. WHO], you can visit the early Christian basilica dedicated to St. Peter, one of the oldest churches in Europe, built before the Council held at Nicaea in the year 325 [see pictures and guide, WHO].

I remember with tender emotion when in October 2010, While they were living in Rome for several meetings to the Holy See, I accompanied two American bishops visiting Syracuse, one of which is now a cardinal. In the eyes of these two places men driving two respective large dioceses, I caught several times a sense of fear and dread, or as he said one of the two: "In the United States we consider my oldest archdiocese founded in 1790, But before these ancient stones I feel really little more than a bishop-child ».

Syracuse, Catacombs of St. John, to encrypt del protovescovo Marziano [ Antioch, I sec. – Syracuse, early second century]

At Syracuse I wrote on the pages of a commemorative book of the Apostolic Nunciature in Italy, which collaborated for the part historical and theological; book then published in 2016 by Libreria Editrice Vaticana. And starting from the ancient Siracusa I treated the figure of the ancient apocrisari - the ancestors of the current apostolic nuncios - moving between East and West. But most of all I treated stories dating back to the ancient times of the fifth and eighth century linked to a particular ecclesiastical institute: The legation of Sicily, from the year 1098. I allowed this mention between the lines just because a book is a public act, and it is also reported my name contributor, but if it were "office jobs", I'd be careful not to do any kind of mention.

Very it would be telling, this introduction, however, may suffice to give a well-deserved lesson to the so-called speakers fake news, or to those two lines or a single title write and they spread the news network with the stomach instead of her brain, if not worse giving irrevocable judgments.

.

It is indeed happened that as of this morning came to the editorial office The Island of Patmos numerous emails from Italy and abroad written by people who, shouting in much the scandal, wondering how it is that Freemasonry in Syracuse is promoted by the local Church.

.

S. AND. Mons. Salvatore Pappalardo, Archbishop of Syracuse, in a brief interview on the occasion of the feast of Saint Lucia [click on image to open the video]

The Church of Syracuse is governed by S.It is. Mons. Salvatore Pappalardo, 72 year old, man anything but naive, and behind all the experience necessary. After working as a young priest in a parish in Catania, his diocese of origin, He was chosen as the diocesan vicar general. Nine years later he was promoted to the bishopric of Nicosia, a small diocese in which today is still alive in people remember his amiable man of Mediterranean sunshine. On him I think I can express direct knowledge, because I know him for many years, appreciate those traits of Christian humility often unknown to some of his pretini trendy, that after going to Rome and caught a Litmus Test that PhD, begin to strut with flute Martini with olive, between a nocturnal conversation and the other in Jerusalem, looking good from learning from their bishop virtue of true shepherds of souls care, which it is precisely that of humility. As we know, however,, to abate humility have always been the poor who do not accept and respect on and off the surroundings of the tower around which is their fan club they are emeritus unknown in the canonical context, theological and biblical, pace of their litmus paper soaked in acid amount directly proportionate to their actual lack of knowledge and wisdom.

.

S. AND. Mons. Salvatore Pappalardo, Archbishop of Syracuse

A pastoral experience man, prudent and even humble like the current Metropolitan Archbishop of Syracuse, He never would fall into a similar trap, and in fact there fell. What really happened is simply this: those four freelancers and more or less trombones clinicians who make up one of the local Masonic lodges, They requested a comparison during a conference sponsored by the Grand Orient of Italy. Then, that the picciotti Freemasonry have printed in the event poster Christ with a compass, is a lack of good taste certainly not attributable to the Archdiocese, because on the poster there is neither the emblem of Archbishop Metropolitan or the words "With the auspices of the Archdiocese of Syracuse". Therefore, who asks a comparison, the Church has always comparing. And this confrontation will be held by a bishop and a priest, both theologians. To confront the esoteric Freemasons will indeed S.It is. Mons. Antonio Staglianò, Suffragan bishop of the diocese of Noto, that the occurrence will not occur with his guitar singing an adaptation of Edoardo Bennato: "Thank god, now there is the mason " [cf. original WHO], and the Rev. Prof. Maurizio Aliotta, Syracuse priest and Vicar General Emeritus of the Archdiocese.

.

a group of knights of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem, one of the various orders of chivalry Catholics who enjoys extensive infiltration by adhering to masonic lodges

The one and the other definitely will put into light because, between the Church and Freemasonry, can there be a confrontation or exchange of divergent opinions, but that the membership of Freemasonry is something incompatible with belonging to the Catholic Church. And of this, either the bishop or the priest, in their capacity as theologians will explain some of the reasons. It will be a very useful and instructive, reiterate this. It will be useful and informative when the next religious holidays, the Knights of Malta and the Knights of the Holy Sepulcher - not a few of whom divide their evenings between the meetings at the Masonic Lodges and those at the headquarters of these ancient Catholic Equestrian Orders -, wallpaper will be presented with their cloaks in the processions of those Saints and those Sante on which the esoteric Freemasons laugh always on with ironic wit to Voltaire.

.

a group of knights of the Order of Malta, one of the orders of chivalry Catholic among the most infiltrated by members of masonic lodges

It will be up to the bishop of Noto, in his capacity as a theologian and especially as a member of the College of Bishops, explain to Freemasons that to try to use and abuse the figure of the Supreme Pontiff Francis I - as was done in the recent past in Rome before the historian Alberto Melloni and the flirtatious feminist theologian Marinella Perroni [cf. WHO, pag. 6-9] —, What is not possible or feasible, because in his approach to Freemasonry, the reigning Pope does not think differently from how they thought the Blessed Pope Pius IX and Pope Leo XIII, just take note of what he says about it [cf. WHO]. It is not by chance, the Supreme Pontiff Francis I, Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke asked clearly to clean up the Order of the Knights of Malta from Masonic infiltration and double membership of certain members of the Order and the Lodges, implicitly stressing that membership in the Masonic Lodges thing is incompatible with belonging to the Catholic Church.

.

the Blessed Pontiff Pius IX [Senigallia 1792-Rome 1878]

The reference made to the Blessed Pontiff Pius IX It is not random, because the freemasons and liberals, long before groped to exploit the Pope Francis I, They tried to exploit that his predecessor shouting: "Long live the Liberal Pope!». Just like today think they can cheat shouting "Long live Francesco" revolutionary "».

.

Faced with this meeting no need to be upset, just know it like it is, without stopping to two lines written on a poster. In conclusion, this latest stunt Masonic, takes place in the land of ocelots in which priests, with their two thousand years of history, among all ocelots are the finest, well most of those kids with apron playing with teams and compasses, born just three centuries ago and known as Freemasons. But the evidence shows the same as always, those who cried out to the Roman Pontiff Pius IX "Long live the Liberal Pope», those who today would like to shout "Long live Francesco" revolutionary "», talking pomposity of a history of the Church who do not know, a theology that ignore, a Second Vatican Council which have only read a few articles in the newspapers radical chic, but which they ignore the knowledge of essential documents. This is what I myself have been able to verify several times talking to the provincial non-Masons, as in the case in question, but with Masons at the highest levels of international Freemasonry. One thing is certain, for us Catholics the memorable sentence launched by Pope Leo XIII in his encyclical The Human race the 1884, against the philosophical and moral relativism of Freemasonry, today remains more than ever topical [see text, WHO].

.

the text of the encyclical The Human race the Supreme Pontiff Leo XIII is readable WHO

If there is a page of history that young Masons the province did not understand about the old Catholic Church, it's this one: when Napoleone Bonaparte in 1806 He carried away captive to France Pope Pius VII, with his typical arrogance he said to Cardinal Ercole Consalvi Secretary of State of His Holiness: "In few years, I have destroyed the Church!». But Cardinal, so very serene answered: "No, Majesty! we did not succeed we priests in seventeen centuries to destroy it, even she will not succeed ". And a few years later, Bonaparte, He was imprisoned at St. Helena, where his life ended, while the Pope Pius VII returned to Rome on 24 May of 1814 welcomed by the Roman people celebrating with cries of "Viva Maria alive Pius VII !»

.

They are too esoteric, these four young boys in career aspirants to hospital primary charge, the most professional firm in view of the City, in the political race ... but "high ideals Masonic"! We know well, which lobby of businessmen is always Freemasonry and what turns handles patronage. Even for this again: they are too esoteric, these four young boys, to learn from the history of the Church which is two thousand years old, but with whom they think every now and then you can play, without knowing if her uterus saint enclosed in his Mystical Body has horizontal or vertical opening ...

While the bishops beat up the sheep and interact with the wolf, the Holy Spirit blows in the People of God who will save the Church

WHILE THE BISHOPS clubbing SHEEP AND DIALOGUE WITH THE WOLF, THE HOLY SPIRIT BLOWS IN THAT PEOPLE OF GOD WHO WILL SAVE THE CHURCH

How can "fix" immediately and expeditiously Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments - something completely legitimate by any Roman Pontiff in the chair -, but at the same time, however, defer the number two of the Italian Episcopal Conference that really praising Luther blasphemously at a symposium held at the Pontifical Lateran University? It is perhaps abolished the ecclesiastical law, and along with it also the common sense, to give unbridled: the sheer arbitrariness and tyranny in the name of dialogue, of collegiality and especially of mercy?

Prophesy against the shepherds of Israel [This 34,2]

Your shepherds are asleep [Already 3,18]

.

.

depiction of the Holy Spirit in St. Peter Archbasilica

God guides the Church normally through our pastors, but nevertheless, his entire People possess the Holy Spirit. If for what these exceptional times pastors are not doing their duty, the Holy Spirit enlightens the faithful directly, that always referring to the Magisterium of the Church, also know the path of truth and the means of sustaining it, although many pastors neglect to indicate, to warn against deviations and dangers, to bring back on the right path those who came out or was lost, to punish those who lead astray by deception. Not to mention the shepherds, with their reprehensible conduct or their perverse ideas, They are an obstacle to those who want to walk along the right path. And in these situations can happen that the Supreme Shepherd, Vicar of Christ, the stone on which Christ wants to build his Church [cf. Mt 16, 13-20], is unable to control and properly manage the ecclesial community and ecclesiastical.

.

Just a few days of each on the other, there were two emblematic events, before which, even the most staunch defenders, those for which the reigning Pope is more perfect than Christ Himself [see previous article, WHO], They can not help but wonder, if they even survive one single shred of analytical clarity. The two facts are as follows: S. AND. Mons. Nunzio Galantine, Secretary General of the Italian Episcopal Conference, It has wickedly sproloquiato that Martin Luther's "reform" was "a gift of the Holy Spirit», and His Eminence Cardinale Robert Sarah, which it is able to reach its current seventy-two years because the then bloodthirsty dictator of Guinea did not have time to kill [cf. WHO], It was denied by the Supreme Pontiff for the question concerning the translation of liturgical texts. The fact is reported by the magazine The New Compass Daily [cf. WHO] it has also made available the original text of the papal letter [cf. WHO]. The news agency Vatican Insider, merely to bring the true story, as it does in principle precisely in its capacity as an information agency, It provides in this regard an accurate summary of the fact [cf. WHO].

.

We do not do news, but theology and ecclesiology, Instead we enter just part of the socio-ecclesial interpretations, because this is our job and our mission. And the fact is disturbing to say the least this: as you can "fix" immediately and expeditiously Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments - something completely legitimate by any Roman Pontiff in the chair -, but at the same time, however, defer the number two C.E.I praising Luther so truly blasphemous to a symposium held at the Pontifical Lateran University? [cf. our article WHO]. It is perhaps abolished the ecclesiastical law, and along with it also the common sense, to give unbridled: the sheer arbitrariness and tyranny in the name of dialogue, of collegiality and especially of mercy? Because before objective data such as those just reported, say that we are before a pastoral way of acting deranged, It is really a euphemism. What in fact the Bishop Nunzio Galantino enunciated, and the context in which it has enunciated, revealing first a real donkey in the field of theology and church history, He would have to behave as an obvious consequence its immediate removal from the post of Secretary General C.E.I. The first to call for his immediate removal, They should have been the members of this Conference, if the test of facts were not of bunnies lying inside that flickering conigliera called precisely Italian Episcopal Conference.

.

That's why when you can not rely on driving and protection of the Pastors to whom is entrusted the People of God, We have to trust that the Holy Spirit enlighten and guide by other means and lighting the People of God. Indeed, ithe recent scandalous case of the Nuncio Bishop Galantino apologist Luther, It is impressive and clear symptom of a serious identity crisis Italian Episcopate. Anyone who wants to take a trip back in the archive of this our Johannine Patmos Island, You will find dozens of articles, which we speak of the now dramatic situation of our episcopate [among many see WHO, WHO, etc ..]. Ma, as is known, similar situations - if you do a lot worse -, There are also other Bishops Conferences, especially European.

.

We want to dedicate a few words episcopacy that Cardinal Cláudio Hummes, current strong supporter of "married priests as an experiment", He has bequeathed to Brazil? Because for one thing, given the moral situation of the Brazilian clergy, the pious Cardinal Teutonico-Brazilian It should first specify whether he means to married priests than married women or those most likely to married men. A concrete example in this regard? Soon said: a Brazilian priest who between 2009 and the 2010 He was in Rome at an international Priestly House, then he returned to Brazil at the end of specialized studies carried out in ancient City, at the end of last year he was summoned and informed that he had been chosen as Bishop of the suffragan dioceses of a large metropolitan archbishopric. After immediately put before its refusal, This holy priest also explained the reason for his refusal, making precise statements that the next day he wrote in confidence to the Father Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo, with whom he lived in contact for a whole year, to be exact wrote to him word for word:

.

"In that diocese, an average of seven out of ten priests are homosexual, most of them with very serious doctrinal problems. How can, a bishop, govern and the pastoral care of a diocese not to have priests who are reliable and presentable?».

.

To this must be added the fact that the bishop of that diocese, Although several years away from the completion of the seventy-fifth birthday, It had been removed under the pontificate of Benedict XVI, after Santa had been informed and had taken note of his dangerous run the diocese, especially as it regards the morality of the clergy. And the reasoned response of my brother, then transmitted to the Holy See, someone has read both at the Secretariat of State and the Congregation for Bishops. Well, what he has to say, about that, Cardinale yl Cláudio Hummes, which for many years, of Brazil, It was both master, both great incinerator ? Because his farfetched idea of ​​married priests as an experiment "" in the Amazon region of Brazil, It produces very worst effects of incineration of forests carried out by anti-environmentalist multinationals. E, After this her burning, it will not be easy to fix the error by writing or singing ... Praised be You '.

.

This weakness or withdrawal of the episcopate It is a morbid phenomenon that had its beginnings since the immediate post-conciliar, when, a misunderstanding of the new ministry and new evangelization promoted by the Council, He began to spread among the bishops of the belief that all people are of good will - what we now call "doing good" -, for which there are no more sins to punish or conduct or ideas to be corrected, but mistakes out of ignorance or good faith, or weaknesses to tolerate, compassionate and forgiving; that they no longer had to exercise coercive power or discipline or condemn heresies, but only dialogue with all, search only what unites and refusing to resolve issues that arise from that which divides; that the Church had no more enemies to fight or exclude, but only "different" to understand, appreciate, integrate, receive and accept.

.

Unfortunately this evil, in the last decades, it came exacerbating, until it reaches the symptomatic case and unheard of Bishop Nunzio Galantino; If it should be for all bishops a warning bell that finally must change his route and retrieve that pastoral wisdom that characterizes the true good pastor, who knows how to skillfully connect sound doctrine and pastoral prudence, communion with the Roman Pontiff and collegial communion, Justice and mercy, firmness and sweetness, Meekness and courage, reception and vigilance, piety and zeal, fidelity and renewal, disinterest and generosity.

The escalation of bullying

They are also extreme cases rising, in which good Catholics, who intend to remain faithful to the truth and give frank testimony, not only they are poorly tolerated by modernist bishops and relaxed, but actually persecuted, perhaps in the name of "mercy", so far ahead it is hypocrisy and injustice joints. Not even popes saints as Paul VI and Giovanni Paolo II were able to stop the rising tide of the episcopate modernist and secularist, which now has infiltrated the Holy See itself closer to the Roman Pontiff or of self-styled or so-called "friends of the Pope".

.

The reigning Pontiff has inherited a very heavy ecclesial reality if not tragic, and it's no surprise that he has great difficulty in governing the Church and correct abuses. A Pope can also be a saint - and we have recent examples -, but if the episcopate is not united and docile, no spirit of collaboration and helpless, above all, to defend him, he can do little and somehow, as seems to have privately said the Holy Father Francis: "His hands are tied" [see previous article, WHO]. Then, that these hands have finished tied in part due to his work and, this is another and equally complex speech.

.

It is then that unfortunately Add, as we have already pointed out several times on our lines, the reigning Pontiff does not correct the modernist interpretation of the Council given in the turbulent season of the post-conciliar, as did its predecessors Supreme, or it corrects the well known defects in the pastoral Vatican II, When he had to say that his Supreme Predecessor, It should not be treated "like a totally new beginning, like a superdogma that makes everything else irrelevant " [cf. WHO]. Its feel-good trend and too uncritically open to a dialogue optimistic at all costs and whatever the cost, with the consequence of aggravating not just the church and clergy problems for half a century we drag behind. Moreover, rather than imitate the examples most worthy of Pontiffs who immediately preceded him, the reigning Pontiff seems to want to do too much in his own way, moreover ill-advised, with the result that the situation of the Church is now more than ever confused, conflictual and problematic.

.

.

What is making the reigning Pontiff ?

.

.

the Chair of the Bishop of Rome in the largest basilica of St. John Lateran

Hard to know where the reigning Pope He wants to guide us. It shows very active, reaps success, but reaps unfortunately among the enemies of the Church, while Catholics devotees manifest themselves increasingly disoriented. Maybe even from this, It comes the episcopate concerns. Not that he lacks the initiatives, But a question comes spontaneously: What is announcing? What is your message? What are its guiding ideas? What we propose? He signed an encyclical, however beautiful, Posting of the Gospel [cf. text WHO]. Ma, in practice, There really is announcing the Gospel? There is announcing Christ, the only Savior of the world? Are you telling us that only in Christ is there salvation? There is announcing a duty to do penance, because the kingdom of heaven is approaching? It teaches us to conquer the world, to save him and to lead him to Christ? There is announcing the coming of Christ as judge? Or simply to promote a peace meeting between all religions in working together for the cause of humanity, especially the poor and oppressed? He is calling all to Christ or is content to talk and to do only on the human level agreements?

.

The historic mission that maybe the Holy Spirit has given to the reigning Pontiff It is to convene, on the stimulus of Vatican II, all nations around Christ. AND, at the bottom of, what it was contained in the motto engraved on the shield of the Papal Holy Pontiff Pius X: establish all things in Christ. In Pope Francis sees this effort to accept all, to contact all, to welcome all, go to all, with particular attention to the poor. Rarely is the question of true or false, He never speaks of dogma or heresy, but it is almost always engaged in an economic issue, social, ecological, humanitarian and moral, if not political.

.

The Gospel, But, not only announces mercy, but the doomsday, of which Christ the Lord speaks very clearly:

.

"But I say unto you that every idle word that men give account thereof in the day of judgment".

.

There is not only social justice, but there is also justice and wrath:

.

"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him " [GV 3, 36].

.

There is just opening, but also the closure and the announcement of a very severe punishment, an example among many:

.

«[…] If the house is worthy, your peace come upon it; but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. Whoever will not receive you or will not listen to your words, leave that house or town and shake the dust off your feet. Truly, I say, the day of judgment the land of Sodom and Gomorrah shall be more tolerable fate of that city ' [Mt 10, 13-15].

.

It takes the bridges, but also the walls. At the wedding feast are so invited all, but you have to go with the wedding dress, otherwise it is not allowed:

.

«[…] He saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment, he told him: Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding? And he was speechless. Then the king said to the attendants: Bind him hand and foot and cast into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen " [Mt 22, 11-14].

.

Faced with unambiguous and clear words how these imprinted on the Holy Gospel, the solutions are only two, there is not a third that is vague or intermediate, therefore: and we acknowledge that the Word of God made Man, which is embodied mercy, He speaks and warns with extreme clarity, or, before certain fragrant today drifts a stubborn refusal to accept such words as God's wrath, punishment, pena, eternal damnation ... we must realize that there is someone who is more welcoming, includente, accommodating and mercy of Christ God himself. For as the Blessed Apostolo Paolo instructs us:

.

"Well, But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel other than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed! We have already said it and now I repeat it: if any man preach a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be accursed! Indeed, It is perhaps the favor of men that I intend to earn, or rather that of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, do not be a servant of Christ!» [Gal 1, 8-10].

.

In these lines, the Blessed Apostle, paying particular attention to the guides of the People of God, She teaches how to act an apostle, but especially to those who the Apostle should always try to please: to God, not to men.

.

It should be quite clear, and especially in these times in which the Church welcomes all and above all that is not Catholic, that excluding the damage and danger, It is not exclusivism, elitism and discrimination, but prudence and defend us and our loved ones. What is there to do the dog about the fold? Perhaps a dialogue with the sheep? He says that Christ pastor who runs away Upon arriving Wolf? Perhaps you remember his exact words:

.

"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep. The hired, that is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, He leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters " [GV 10, 11-12].

.

Or anyone believes that today the wolves no longer exist? Of course, if the wolves exist, even they go to the Vatican to do interviews and then write to Pastor, without being contradicted by the Holy See, nonsense of this kind:

.

"... Pope Francis abolished places after death the souls should go: Inferno, Purgatory, Paradiso […] All souls have the grace and therefore are born perfectly innocent, and these remain unless you take up the way of evil. If they are aware of it and do not repent even at death, they are condemned. Pope Francis - I repeat - abolished the places of eternal residence in 'Beyond the souls. The thesis he sustained is that the souls dominated by evil and do not repent cease to exist and those that have been redeemed from evil will be made from bliss contemplating God. This is the thesis of Francis' [see article by John Cavalcoli, WHO].

.

Membership in the Church It does not coincide with the mere membership of this world: to belong to the Church, efforts should be made to overcome the world in its seductions and its dangers, and save it to where it can be salvageable. If there is a criterion of discernment between those who can belong to the Church and who is not, since it still must be said either yes or no [cf. Mt 5,37] It is welcome indiscriminate verification, which has its counterpart in the indiscriminate exclusion. It says yes to those who deserve no and we say no to those who deserve the yes. At that point, it so happens that an unenlightened mercy and not offset by Justice, a good criterion to distinguish from each other, It ends up producing the opposite, that injustice, cronyism and despotism, in conclusion: the tyranny. The pastoral error of Pope Francis I is the risk of presenting an incomplete Gospel announcing the mercy and neglect justice.

.

However, we should trace the Vicar of Christ beyond appearances, which can deceive and offend, although it is not easy. And the feeling that pervades some time the Fathers of The Island of Patmos It is that the least worthy of the episcopate hardships to overcome this difficulty, misunderstand the true intent and duty of the Supreme Pontiff, influenced by modernism and very dangerous occult powers, while the good part, suffering but faithful, remains silent puzzled, or lack of courage to be heard. The vouchers are, are few and timid, because "I am wiser than the children of this world that the children of light" [LC 16, 8]. They are firmer heretics in their error that the faithful in the truth. However, in our view, after all, what today does not work is not so much the papacy, but it is the episcopate. Of course, the Supreme Pontiff has its grave responsibility to be clear; a responsibility that the Fathers de LPatmos Island They have not failed on several occasions to report, even allowing himself to exhort him to clarity and warning him against false friends and traitors. For we know that the Holy Father would be clearer in its message, if the good bishops sollecitassero to be clearer. But how do you explain this silence?

.

.

The major problem is therefore that of the episcopate

.

.

the Blessed Vergine Maria with the snake under their feet

We believe in the end is better than, instead of attacking or "correct" - not to say abuse - the Supreme Pontiff, He would find itself the tone of the ancient prophets of Israel, certainly not the heresies sown by Enzo Bianchi in the cathedral of the cathedral under the complacent smile of bishops increasingly undoctrinated who invite him to sow wickedness. And the tone of the ancient prophets of Israel, there is shown in Holy Scripture: their zeal and fiery word for the cause of God, the reproaches, the calls and warnings to the shepherds for their own good and benefit of the people, their courage, their frankness, their dedication, their mercy and their combativeness, acceptance of the sacrifices and sufferings, persecuted for righteousness. Then We will quote some of their significant step, that seems a huge and urgent topical. All in a moment when you can not understand the silence of the shepherds before the spread of heresies, the overt and blatant disregard of the natural moral law and divine and the most serious corruption of morals, especially religious, personal and family.

.

Why should we read or hear only complaints, protests and refutations dates from simple small groups of laity, journalists often, in sites, blogs and publications with limited circulation? Where did they take the theological preparation, the wisdom, the timeliness, the critical acumen and courage of which the bishops do not give evidence? Surely the Holy Spirit. But we are not like the Lutherans who believe that the Church is simply the community of the baptized by the Spirit, independently and indeed against fraud of a so-called episcopal magisterium, in which they do not believe, but which is instead an object of faith for us Catholics. If we indeed reproach and accuse our bishops, teachers of the faith and not the whoppers, it is not because we do not believe in the sacramental fullness of the priesthood they received, but it is precisely because we believe and we want that the bishops do their duty of bishops.

lay people and saints, an image of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati [Torino 1901 – Torino 1925] Dominican tertiary

The good laymen who rise up against heresies and injustices, for the promotion of faith, often paying in person and giving a splendid example of fidelity to the Church and at the same Supreme Pontiff, despite its lack of clarity, Referring to the teachings of the Church, often proving to theological education, solidity of convictions, evangelical parrhesia, critical acumen and skillful speaking Christian, They can not be self-taught. Not being of our Fathers The Island of Patmos exactly the unwary, It is obvious: many of these lay Catholics and Catholic journalists, behind they have masters and ecclesiastical patrons of high rank and competence, perhaps bishops, academic theologians and cardinals. Not only, reading certain writings, instantly we understand what level and rank are the inspirers, but several times we also indicated between our lines the identity of these inspiring, prompters and principals implicit or explicit, which, however, remain in the shadows in fearful and objectionable. Therefore, on the one hand some lay people are to be commended as advocates of sound doctrine and good morals, on the other, their prompters dressed in red or purplish garments, give rather squalid evidence of an unreasonable and undignified cowardice and petty opportunism, But unless impersonate, with their faithful "spokesman", for the political sopraffini.

.

It could even say that to recognize the heresies and the shepherds' blunders and senseless teologastri cantafrottole, We do not need the intelligence of St. Thomas Aquinas or hold special academic qualifications, that these days are only cards whose value is comparable to that of the marco tedesco during the great hyperinflation of the twenties of the twentieth century. Just compare just the nonsense of these pastors and foolish teologastri cantafrottole with the teachings of Catechism of the Catholic Church, and sometimes with the same principles of healthy natural reason known to all, to grasp the full enormity of their contradictions and their absurdity.

.

Then remember our bishops of glorious times in which the Athanasius and Augustine opposed with apostolic zeal against Nestorius, The Pelagio and Ario for the honor of Christ and the good of the flock from heresy troubled. Today the times are very similar to those, and zealous bishop should not fear these noble causes to stand against the enemies of truth, They were also brothers in the episcopate. But unfortunately, not a few of these timid members of the episcopate, relying on the now eighty years of the reigning Pontiff, They have already made their cynical and political accounts in the so-called father died, sending forth the laity to launch harsh accusations [see WHO, WHO, WHO, WHO], while they think they can back on the front of the wind change, if anything octogenarians achieving the "cursed" purple who run for life until the loss and the eternal damnation of their souls [please refer to this harsh article, WHO].

.

Venerable Fathers of the College of Bishops, take as a model the holy Bishop Atanasio di Alessandria who sought the glory of God and not his own glory, down in the holy battlefield without fear, but especially remembering that God's judgment on you, It will be really strict, because 'To whom much is given, much will be asked for; to whom men have committed much, It will ask the more " [LC 12, 48].

.

How, then, impostors and counterfeiters not afraid to make the best impression with impudence and shamelessness of their shameful indecencies and ye say to the four winds with intolerable arrogance of their perverse, so far more so the good bishops have come out; They must descend on the holy battlefield with zeal and courage to claim the honor of God, the rights of truth, the salvation of souls, the dignity of the sacred Episcopal class, obedience and devotion to the Supreme Pontiff, misunderstood by sycophants, dai mestatori, by traitors and false friends. Stay behind the scenes, and forward the laity, using them to express what you did not dare to express, It does not make it any of these subjects sopraffini politicians, as they believe they are, but only cowards and, As such, the real shame of the sacred college of bishops, sowers of poisons and bewilderment among the People of God already too confused and bewildered.

.

Is it possible that in front of so many follies and sins which cry before God and being committed almost daily by top-ranking ecclesiastical figures, his 250 bishops in Italy we did not find a single one who with evangelical parresia, moved by the fear of God, able to face the good fight of faith, strong charisma Episcopal, ready to suffer the humiliation of the cross, trusting in the future heavenly glory? Possible that there is only one bishop able to resonate strongly apostolic voice of truth and to shame the wicked criminals, saving souls in danger from the fire of hell? What purpose does it serve, be bishops, then when they make similar petty figures? What is this shameful inaction, This fear of failure, This carnal prudence, This reprehensible inaction, This guilty silence and this foul sloth?

.

In our different but similar experience of preachers and confessors, we Fathers de The Island of Patmos we found many times more parresia evangelical and critical acumen in the words of some cloistered nuns, that does not in some trombones and fugitives bishops who do not see and do not feel, Hidden somewhere behind the scenes to send back the others to throw in their place, often, also real poisonous stabs.

.

St. Caterina da Siena, turning to the Roman Pontiff, begs him to establish good shepherds, because they are good shepherds that make good the flock. So they do the real reform of the Church. If the pastor fact silent before the vices of the flock and does not correct them - observes the Holy Senese with fine psychology -, It is a bad sign: it is a sign that the pastor is hindered by the discomfort of his conscience, who reminds him that he is entangled in those sins from which should free the faithful.

.

Today more than ever appear topical and utilities for our shepherds calls and the calls of the great biblical prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel, as a reproach:

.

"His watchmen are blind, They do not notice anything. They are all dumb dogs, they can not bark; crouching doze» [Is 56,10].

.

Pastors have neglected the flock. Then God himself cares directly with his Spirit, arousing courageous laity, so pastors are shaken from their slumber and do their duty:

.

"The Lord said: You have scattered my flock, and you are driven them away and have not you worried; there, I'll take care of you and the evil of your doings. I myself will gather the rest of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them and will bring them again to their folds; they shall be fruitful and multiply. I will set up shepherds over them that enable them to graze, so they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed; of them did not even miss a » [Gives 23,1-4].

.

The Lord rebukes the shepherds for their neglect. He himself then, through good laypeople and priests, docile to the Holy Spirit, directly takes care of the flock, but by that very fact it encourages pastors to do their duty:

.

"I am against the shepherds: I ask them on behalf of my flock and I will not let them longer graze my flock, so the shepherds shall feed themselves any more, but I tear their mouths, and my sheep will no longer be their meal. For thus saith the Lord God: there, I myself will look after my sheep, and will care. As a shepherd seeks out his flock, when in the midst of his sheep that were scattered, so I will review my sheep and gather them from all the places where they were scattered in the cloudy and dark. ... I will seek the lost one, bring back the stray; I bandage the wounded and make the weak; I will take care of the fat and the strong I will feed them with justice " [This 34,10-12; 16].

.

We should remember, then the shepherds the stern warning of Christ:

.

"Whoever is ashamed of me in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels " [MC 8,38].

.

You can reduce a bishop in sad monkeys in a cage ?

.

a lovable little monkey sad

And remember, the reigning Pontiff, how prudent and Universal, His recent predecessors, They have chosen and selected the new bishops and cardinals. In both Auditors they were called and chosen men who represented all the different faces of the Church. Or in terms of sociological and journalistic that we do not like, but in any case useful to be understood by all: Augusti under the pontificates of Blessed Pope Paul VI, the Holy Father Giovanni Paolo II and Pope Benedict XVI Venerable, with commendable and wise balance bishops were consecrated and elevated to the rank of Cardinal men belonging to the different currents of the Church. We had so, and we have seen live and work together, also often switched between debates and theological clashes, bishops and cardinals progressive area, conservative or so-called traditionalist, always use these misnomers but understandable.

.

Today it seems rather to assist episcopacy of the sad monkeys in a cage. Almost all the bishops elected in the last four years, They are painful and clones and emulators sub-mediocre - or so-called monkeys - the reigning Pontiff, all caught up in a frantic race to talk about poor, of refugees and soli juice. In competition with each other to promote study meetings on the great Luther "reformer" and the value of his "reform". In competition with each other organizers in their cathedral churches lunch for the poor who face the blow of newspapers and television. All in procession with the wooden pastoral product in carpentry, competing in those sports the most "humble pectoral cross" and "poor". In short: today, a bishop, much less it would be ashamed to come to the plenary assembly of the bishops accompanied by two Ukrainian fashion models in miniskirts and transparent clothes, rather than wear a “shameful” gold pectoral cross, which also symbolizes always, such as metal, the incorruptibility of faith.

.

Having created this, It has led to kill the size of the plurality of the same collegiality, plunging the Church into provincialism and applying surreal socio-political categories of people that do not correspond to the great universal breath of the reality of God's People. A style, this, certainly not worthy of a man of extraordinary genius and ability as he could be, and as it was a Stalin, but unfortunately a style worthy of the worst and most provincial dictators the history of Latin America. And who with leveling down kills the episcopate, kills Church, and little worth then assert, in private conversations: "My hands are tied", because the day when Christ hands slegherà them to him and say, "Now show me your palms», will definitely pain, great pains, before the Tremendous majesty, which it will be very difficult to answer … “But I am poor and merciful”.

The Supreme Pontiff at high altitude: "Martin Lutero was smart». Of course, as it was also Jack the Ripper

THE POPE TO HIGH ALTITUDE: MARTIN LUTERO 'ERA INTELLIGENT ". OF COURSE, HOW I WAS EVEN JACK THE RIPPER

.

Even the famous serial killer known as Jack the Ripper was definitely smarter, is something proved by the fact that the best of the police Scotland Yard He was never able to find out who he was and still his identity is shrouded in mystery. While on his intelligence could be discussed, analyzing it from another angle. So how you should argue that it is not really intelligent Christians fall into heresy and destroy the Church, whereby, as it was obvious, Luther was not able to give any intelligent and plausible justification for the damage he has done.

Even the famous serial killer known as Jack the Ripper was definitely smarter, is something proved by the fact that the best of the police Scotland Yard was never able to find out who …

In one of our private talks, Father Ariel S. Levi Gualdo returned to express his belief: "It seems that the Pope tends to give the best of themselves by plane, at high altitude, speaking to reporters'. That said expressed his other personal theories related to "brain oxygenation", on which overfly. Indeed, it was at high altitude, interviewed by a journalist during the return trip from Armenia, The Holy Father expressed arm some of his personal views on Luther, without any magisterial value, certainly some considerable, other quite questionable, because of conflicting with what the Magisterium of the Church has already expressed on Luther, especially with Leo X and the Council of Trent [the Holy Father's answer is recorded WHO by the minute 30,53 — N.d.R. In this movie you note to the right the face of Father Federico Lombardi s.j. that the question asked by the journalist to the Holy Father "... it is not the time to withdraw the excommunication of Martin Lutero ', starts to smile. Then, when the answer of the Holy Father, until it is diverted a shot by him, his face and taut like a bowstring. However, in the world of image, in which the Church has wanted to enter to spur beaten and often with reckless abandon, the images speak, inevitably the pictures speak].

Jack the Ripper hunt for victims …

This does not mean that the idea of ​​the Church of Luther He stops at those famous sixteenth century interventions, containing judgments that do not go corrected, but integrated, using the judging criteria provided Vatican Council II and taking into account the results of the ecumenism, as the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification, published by Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, the 31 October 1999, who, moreover, Remember, it is simply an advisory body of the Holy See, which as such does magisterium [1], just to be clear.

Before commenting on the words of the Pope, I think it is good to admit a short presentation of the the status of the problem. In the enterprise Luther play two key factors, characteristic of the Augustinian spirituality: the problem of their personal relationship with God and the care of the good of the Church. But while Augustine was able to put it as the cornerstone of his spirituality love and contempt, Luther was always tempted by 'Love of up to contempt. He thus sought the solution not in charity, but in his fiducial faith: God saves me despite my sin. St. Augustine would say: vis Fugere Deo? Flee to God! In Luther instead faith in God takes the place of God's love.

These themes adding a strong attraction to the Christ of St. Paolo Apostolo who "gave himself for me" [Gal 2,20], This theme dear, the whole medieval spirituality, especially the Franciscan and Dominican.

Jack the Ripper hunt for victims …

Luther, initially plagued, annoyed, distressed and frightened by an exaggerated consciousness of their sins and of its fragility, excessive need for perfection and the idea of ​​a God inexorably severe, angry with him and threatening, He believed to solve his unbearable inner drama with the famous doctrine of fiducial faith, O forensic justification, for which he adamantly convinced all my life that God did not take account of his sins and save him, at only condition that he believed this, without worrying about the sins, that would always be forgiven anyway. It was in essence an inability to peacefully practice the sacrament of penance, that he appeared to be torture, humiliation and a pointless exercise, because of its proud perfectionism, for which he could not stand accused of having always the same sins.

Luther believed that the fiducial faith It was an act of great humility before God, as he acknowledged sinner, He asserted the futility and even the impossibility of good works, and became convinced that the work of justification God "merciful" did everything, while he had nothing to do, so he could safely continue to sin, which in any case could not help but, given that the permanent confused trend to sin - "lust" - with sin. Because of this, he decided to stop confession, because he was convinced to be always in grace, although always he immersed - as he thought - in mortal sin. But true humility is to recognize that good works are dutiful, possible and necessary, although not enough, and together with the consequent merits they are gifts from God.

Jack the Ripper hunt for victims …

The great drama of Luther, It had not yet begun, why he, especially as a religious and a priest, and also for a natural opening of his soul - his father wanted to direct it advocacy -, not only felt the need to care for their salvation, but also that of others and the good of the Church. And in fact his superiors in the Order immediately noticed these attitudes and soon entrusted him with numerous assignments, especially the teaching of theology.

The idea of fiducial faith Luther, however, regarded as being based on humility and trust in God's mercy, he had planted such roots in his subtly proud soul [2], he supported it as if it were true Word of God and the discovery of the true Gospel.

Luther had a very active and energetic character, generous but also authoritarian, capable of great efforts and hard work in external works, in weak while in the domain of the passions. His well-known thesis of the uselessness of "works" should not be understood in a quietist sense, fece eat Molinos, but it refers to the rejection of the ascetic discipline, all'occuparsi not the good of others, where Luther however many expenses energies and he knew gather collaborators and followers. Hence his reformer intent, Although this activism and zeal often harsh and violent was not born, as opposed to St. Augustine and all true reformers, by an ardent charity Divina, then an authentic supernatural motivation - what St. Caterina da Siena called "ardent desire" -, but its exceptional natural dynamism and her conviction of being justified by the fiducial faith.

historical archive forensic image: The victims of Jack the Ripper

So it was not true brotherly love, that flows from divine charity, or true service to God and neighbor, but - probably without you noticing it -, the need or urge to self-assertion and domination over others. And so the above arbitrary and presumptuous idea of ​​being justified caused him excessive self-confidence and the stubborn belief that God was always in him and with him, so as to have at a certain point the boldness, his, heretic, to accuse of heresy Pope Leo X who had "dared" to censor. In this way Luther it appropriated to itself that infallibility in interpreting Scripture, that Christ gave to Peter; and how well you understand, this, It has nothing to do with humility.

The tragic turning point in Luther's life It is when he breaks with the pope on the question of justification, around the 1518-19. Until then he accepts the Church in her divine essence and, with the famous 95 thesis the 1517, It is moved by the intention to reform, free it from the mundane, purify, find the original Gospel, remove encrustations and weighting, unnecessary elements and barriers, correct costumes, fight the vices, increase the virtues and the study of God's Word, forming consciences, revive their enthusiasm and fervor. Some of the ideas of this period Luther would have been taken up by the reform initiated by the Second Vatican Council, but obviously in completely different ways and doctrinal and pastoral terms.

historical portrait of Martin Lutero

But when the Pope condemned his idea of ​​justification with the famous bull Arise, O the 1520, explodes in Luther a real rage against the Pope and in general against the Magisterium of the Church, that from now on he feels as high imposter, falsifier of the Gospel, oppressor of the freedom of the Christian and the Church, Demon servo.

The idea of ​​reforming the Church turns into destruction of the Church: Luther lost the perception of what can be changed and what must be preserved and begins to remove or change essentials. Note that now his application to fund a vaunted vaunted or instance of truth, and not only and not primarily a simple reform of morals or institutions. He knows and has discovered or rediscovered, against the Pope lies, how I interpret Scripture, what is the true teaching of St. Paul, What is faith, what is the true gospel, as gains salvation, What is the Church.

Until the 1517 Luther accepts the truth of the Church and just wants to reform. From the 1520, he begins to demolish the Church, He thinks he knows what the true Church. No more re-form, ma one-way. It was the beginning of the catastrophe. For this we should go very cautious - how many times we have explained in numerous articles on this our Island of Patmos -, to call, Luther and the Lutheran "reform".

the great gash Luther the Ripper

Considering himself finally free the Magisterium of the control of the indisputable interpreter Church of Revelation, directly inspired by the Holy Spirit, Luther ends up becoming a hotbed of heresies and enormities were followed him, one behind the other, for the rest of his life, like a raging torrent, encountering considerable success until today. I am not here to list them, so they are known from five centuries. Among the Lutherans, Some errors have been corrected, others have worsened. It is, however, pleased that, Also as a result of the ecumenical activities, a passage from Luther, approached by some Catholic exegetes [3] more carefully critical, they showed, the wretched beyond expression, their intention Orthodox.

Wanting to make a balance of the so-called "reform" Lutheran, we leave to God's judgment on the private intentions of Luther and according to its rather explicit and stated intentions, according to what is in fact achieved Luther, according to the results of his "reform", according to the judgment of the Church and of history, outside of every servile fanaticism and any reprehensible demonization, to give an overall assessment of the work of Luther, just a few simple indisputable considerations accessible to all, to say with confidence, serene soul and responsible - and this is the most favorable judgment that can be given - that his "reform" has done more harm than good.

the victim of Luther the Ripper: Church Unity

First consideration. We call it "reformer"? Let's do it too, but not without taking into account the contrasting character of Luther with the true saints reformers, which produced saints, many canonized by the Church. Here are a few names known to all: St. Benedict of Nursia, Gregory VII, San Pier Damiani, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, Innocent III, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Dominic, St. Caterina da Siena, the Servant of God Girolamo Savonarola, St. Ignatius of Loyola. To follow with the great reform made by the Council of Trent in a season that has been a great flowering of saints: St. Teresa of Avila, San Pio V, Saint Charles Borromeo. To follow with contemporary reformers: San Pio X, St. John XXIII, Reform of Vatican II gave in turn rise to numerous saints: Blessed Paul VI, Saint John Paul II, St. Pio of Pietrelcina, San Josemaria Escriva, Santa Teresa of Calcutta … All are enlightening comparisons that do not need comments.

Second consideration. If it took the Council of Trent to remedy the "" Luther's Reformation, it means that something went wrong. Just think of the wars of religion and religious to the tragic division of Europe. The Tridentine reform has produced immense fruits of holiness. What holiness produced instead Lutheran?

The Second Vatican Council recognized that some instances of Luther could be valid, but he never denied the scope of all its highly negative and harmful elements

Third consideration. The Second Vatican Council has promoted the recognition of valid aspects of Luther's Reformation, without ignoring the negative ones. The Protestant brothers in dialogue, we are considering?

The Holy Father, with words that have been around the world, he has declared:

"I believe that the intentions of Martin Luther were not wrong: He was a reformer ".

I think judging intentions is not easy, but in certain cases it may be possible and useful, especially when it comes to evaluating the thinking and actions of famous people, very studied, that we have left many testimonies and many documents But this is just the case of Luther, although in his conduct and in his writings they are contradictions, darkness and ambiguity. The intimate intentions, morals, the limits are known only to God, who can read the man's conscience, and the person. However, there are communicable intentions of an author, that appear by their linguistic and behavioral expression. On this floor it is not historically true to say that all of Luther's intentions were correct, because his words and his behavior instead prove the exact opposite. Here are a few examples: It was not just the intent to separate from the Roman Church. It was not just the intention to abolish the papacy. It was not just the intention to abolish the hierarchy. It was not just the intention to abolish the Magisterium of the Church. It was not just the intent to abolish the Mass and the Sacraments. It was not just the intention to abolish the Eucharistic adoration. It was not just the intention to abolish the cult of the saints. It was not just the intent to abolish the religious life. And with everything, It is very important to note that Luther did not destroy the church completely; otherwise it would not be a heretic, but an apostate. Like this, in Lutheranism, were the fundamental dogmas of the faith: One God, the creation, providence, the man the image of God, the Angels, the Trinitarian dogma, the Incarnation, the Redemption. And along with this "memory" also it remained the fundamental structure of the Church: the baptism, the grace of Christ, the salvation, God's people, and ministers, writing, prophecy, the charisms of the Spirit, prayer, the Lord's Supper, Christian ethics. All these values ​​are the basis of ecumenical relations.

The Holy Father he has declared:

"Maybe some methods were not right, but at that time we see that the Church was not exactly a role model: there was corruption in the Church, there was high society, It was no attachment to money and power. And for this he protested ".

Luther ripped through the Unity of the Church …

Perhaps it should be well noted that it is not only unjust methods, but also the goals and unjust or wrong content, such as those described above, who turned “reform” in destruction, a heresy that has created a dramatic schism.

The Holy Father followed by saying:

"He was smart, and has taken a step forward justifying why did this. And today Lutherans and Catholics, with all Protestants, we agree on the Doctrine of Justification: on this point so important he was not wrong. He made a "medicine" for the Church ".

Even the famous serial killer known as Jack the Ripper It was definitely smarter, is something proved by the fact that the best of the police Scotland Yard He was never able to find out who he was and still his identity is shrouded in mystery. While on his intelligence could be discussed, analyzing it from another angle. So how you should argue that it is not really intelligent Christians fall into heresy and destroy the Church, whereby, as it was obvious, Luther was not able to give any intelligent and plausible justification for the damage he has done. The real intelligence, It is the result of humility. The heretic, usually, He is an intelligent person, but superb and lacks charity. He does not listen to the warning of St. Paul: "Science swells. The love builds up " [And what 8,2]. The intellect it takes, ma, as Dante says, It must be a "loving understanding". In the end, if it really Luther made a "medicine", how come, the Council of Trent, It replaced it with another? In the event to: which of the two drugs is the right one?

the Roman Pontiff in Lund (Sweden) to celebrate the 500 years of “reform” of Luther, hugs at the end of a liturgy Masked lady from a Gentile “archbishop” and as such coated priestly insignia. In a world that often live image, It comes from wondering: a similar impact image, It was really necessary? And if necessary, to what, It was necessary?

The Holy Father finally concludes:

"Today dialogue is very good and that document on justification think it is one of the richest ecumenical documents, richer and deeper […] There are divisions, but also they depend on the Churches'.

Del document on justification I have already spoken above. In it we must distinguish the one hand the divisions between the churches that touch the charity ; on the other, the division or separation of the Lutherans from the Catholic church, in that, this second, It touches very deeply the truth, faith and dogma.

Dear Readers,

the drafting of The Island of Patmos, from left to right: Father John Carlson, Father Ariel S.. Levi Gualdo and his collaborator Jorge Facio Lince, responsible for managing the editorial department

three years ago He came to life the positive experience of The Island of Patmos, a project before which we never imagined the success we have seen, and which is in our opinion one of the actions of God's grace. Although none of us is an accomplished expert in mathematical sciences, it is appropriate to paraphrase the famous slogan that says: "The numbers speak".

.

In three years we have exceeded thirteen million visits, for a total of almost five million unique visitors, as shown in the graph at the end of page. Of these twelve and over million registered to date, well over seven and a half million are visits recorded from January 1 to 22 October 2017, for a monthly average stood on 750.000 visits per month.

.

our two valuable employees: the philosopher and theologian Jorge Facio Lince, collaborator of Father Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo; Sister Matilde Nicoletti, from many years of Father Giovanni Cavalcoli collaborator

Our webmaster He explained that the actual numbers are higher, because in most cases, today, They are connected to a single network more computer from which most people connect. There are many private homes in which a single network, connect three or four computer. Then there are corporate networks or systems wi-fi to which the computers connected to a single network are even tens. Therefore, in his opinion, the numbers recorded by the engine that measures the access to the site should be at least tripled.

.

We have produced to date 342 articles for a total of approx 8.000 pages. But above all we have established valuable and fruitful relationships both with a very considerable number of devoted Catholic faithful, and with many residents brother priests in various parts of the world, who follow us and always more frequently challenge us for advice and theological opinions, pastoral and spiritual.

We plan to print The notebooks of The Island of Patmos every four months, where to gather his theological article, as soon as possible, proceed to open the Editions The island of Patmos, either by printing new books, both reprinting books of the Fathers now out of print. In the realization of these projects we went very slowly, because in certain businesses prudence is the penalty, especially if you do not have either of sponsor nor secure and guaranteed sums of money. But, to gradually, we are implementing these projects. For as we have repeatedly mentioned in our various articles, accept funding or be covered in operating expenses by one sponsor, It can be risky, not ideological people without Party flag like us, that is precisely why they can not take the risk of being left with funding elastic, under which the lenders could also end up telling us what to write and how to write it, but above all what to write and what not to write.

The Cor 13, 1-13], It will help us to come out from the darkness of this tunnel, that all tunnelled has a nebulous beginning and dark, but also an end in the light, because «The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it " [GV 1,5].

Finally we would like to offer a few examples uplifting, choosing two among the many: an Italian priest who without the help of retired parents would have difficulty to do the shopping and pay the bills of the church light - because this is the reality of many priests of the Italian Church defined several times in public and in private by the reigning Pontiff as "princely", or as run by "bishops princes" -, every month sends us 10 Euro.

Day after day, the Supreme Pontiff Francis is showing himself to be a parent at the height of his own irresponsibility, but not for that never cease to be, For better or for worse, our rightful parent. Therefore, son grieved, It can also tell: "I wish we had a different parent ', but always animated by the full knowledge that his parent is.

“In the visible Church you are now the surviving priests of a militant and saving Church which no longer exists, why can you call the paleo-presbyteri, congiungervi waiting for the triumphant Church in the heavenly Jerusalem "

Jorge Facio Lynx, private Talks with Ariel S.. Levi di Gualdo

.

.

.

New cover for the next edition of Les Miserables, Victor Hugo. In the picture: His Holiness Francis I interviewed the Paduan priest Marco Pozza, worthy son of … Friar Cipolla [cf. item WHO]

The ambiguity of the Holy Father, your refusal a respond and clarify, perhaps due to a cage in which he was locked up or in which he unwittingly let himself be locked up [cf. response to a reader, WHO], equivalent to a plane without a parachute launch. And before similar launch, you can't talk about predictable end, but only of certain end.

.

Just imagine one of those large families made up of two parents and five children aged between five and fifteen, in which the father and mother did not give precise indications and directives on what to do and what not to do, about what you should do and what you should not do, on what is allowed and what is prohibited. And suppose that these parents, if anything even implying or stating what not to do and what is forbidden to do, do not indicate in any way what would be the proper punishment given to those who transgress their command. Well: what would happen?

.

To this question I can answer through an image eloquently, sad and humiliating in its squalor for the Church of Christ and for this pontificate. This is the picture that accompanies this article, in which the priest Marco Pozza recovered, chaplain of the Padua prison, He sat before the Pope dressed as a casual young man in sneakers [cf.. WHO].

.

To clarify the example chosen through which we will then talk about something else, We must remember that the Code of Canon Law states today:

.

Clerics are to wear suitable ecclesiastical dress according to the norms issued by the Episcopal Conference and the legitimate local custom [can. 284]. Clerics are to refrain completely from what is unbecoming to their state, accordance with the provisions of particular law [Can. 285 § 1]. Avoid those things that, although not unbecoming, nevertheless foreign to the clerical state [Can. 285 §2].

.

Quoted canon, But we also know the answer of certain subjects, which it is more or less this: "But please, let's not formalize ourselves! What only matters is peace, the love, mercy, the welcome. Not fossilizziamoci on hard and dry law, roba of Pharisaic legalisms! What matters it is to stay close to the sheep, take the smell, stinking sheep like them ».

.

And just before answers of this kind it is necessary to remember that in addition to this "arid" canon 284, definitely no peace, love, mercy, welcome and stench of sheep, There are forty-eight years of papal teaching in the exercise of such, three predecessors of the reigning Pontiff, one of which canonized and the other beatified - perhaps mistaken in the name of the arid law that is not merciful or pecoreccia ―, based on this "barren" canon have made repeated appeals to the members of the secular and regular clergy, reiterating in every way that clerical garb, It is not a simple totally unnecessary accessory. He appeals to that effect made them the Blessed Pope Paul VI to Catechesis in the Hearing general the 17 September 1969 [cf.. WHO], to follow with the Address to Clergy 1st March 1973. Following the circular letter To meet the Congregation for Bishops to all pontifical representatives 27 January 1976. To follow with the Apostolic Letter of the Holy Father Giovanni Paolo II, new incipient, the 7 April 1979, addressed to Priests for Holy Thursday. Always under the pontificate of the Holy Pontiff John Paul II - canonized but not heard and much less followed - follows the Circular of the Congregation for Catholic Education the 6 January 1980, and below that of the Congregation for the Clergy in Directory on the Ministry and Life of Priests, paragraph 66, The obligation of the ecclesiastical, the 31 January 1994. It's still: September 8 1982 the Holy Father Giovanni Paolo II wrote a letter to the Vicar General for the Diocese of Rome, published on The Osservatore Romano the 18-19 October 1982 - at the time when the official organ of the Holy See does not yet talked to San Martin Lutero and his “reform” —, reaffirming the obligation of ecclesiastical dress and establishing that in his diocese he wanted priests to wear the cassock [Then read the text WHO]. On this subject back finally even the Venerable Pope Benedict XVI with his expression turned to the plenary meeting of the Congregation for the Clergy on 16 March 2009 [cf.. WHO].

.

Assuming that we flee any spirit of pure and dry formalism, every good Catholic evaluates for himself the indignant significance of the public image of a pretino fashion in clothes casual, that with gym shoes bets on the floor interview the Roman Pontiff. From the same pose of the priest in fact anyone can infer that in his long years of santissimo seminario, surely already tense ever since then social-pecoreccio which today makes such trend, perhaps he never even learned the rudiments of good manners, which is not formalism, because education is part of a style of ecclesial life and ecclesiastical linked to the deeper elements of the priesthood and the sacred pastoral ministry spirituality [I refer to my article on pretini trendy: "I seriously pigliateli, take them for the ass " WHO].

.

While we roped critical assaulting sometimes disrespectfully and even violent, the Supreme Pontiff for his every breath, on the other we'd like, its staunchest defenders, often no less deranged, They entered the order of ideas that the Holy Father is not perfect and that, precisely for the best protection and preservation of its role, must also necessary to highlight its flaws, which they are not few, and often also produce damage [cf.. My previous article WHO]. Otherwise it falls in total imbalance on either side, harming, in one and in the other case, the Church of Christ, the reigning Pontiff and the institution of the papacy.

.

A few days ago, with firm severity, I criticized the authors of the correction filial [cf.. text, WHO] who accused the reigning Pontiff seven heresies expressed in a more or less direct [cf.. previous article WHO]. In those few lines, in flush with tones in some passages about the "cruelty", I strongly attacked one of the signatories, Antonio Love [cf.. previous article WHO]. And I attacked because first of all the love you very much, I venerate him as an elderly priest and I consider him the last great exponent of the glorious Roman School on a philosophical and theological level.

.

The deference to truth and intellectual honesty, Today I require all the more reason to say that the correction filial It is really nothing, compared to a defense text of the Holy Father which completely distorts the text of The joy of love, taking for granted and impersonating public opinion of the Catholic openings ever written and ever permissioni dates [see text, WHO]. The correction filial, on which stands for the joy of the noisy pro-Lefebvre Catholics the untimely signing of the schismatic Bishop Bernard Fellay, Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, We remember that it is not in communion with Rome, despite the improvident and unilateral concessions made to them by the Supreme Pontiff Francis, there's really nothing, a comparison of the signatures that appear at the end of the text of this effusive Defense: those of many overt heretics. Included among them two excommunicated: Martha Heizer, President of the so-called Basic Association We are church [We are Church], to which has been imposed in 2014 excommunication, not by the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI, but by the reigning Pontiff. Excommunication extended to her husband Ehemann Gert [cf.. WHO, WHO]. And if these are some of the signatories of the defense, There is something to be feel challenged [cf.. WHO].

.

Precisely because of the severity used a few days ago, the evolution of the facts compels me to say that while prosecutors yesterday are mistaken Catholics, today's defenders are mostly manifest heretics, gangrene in its own subjective view of the Catholic Church, not corresponding to the Church of Christ, with the excuse of The joy of love and specious defense of the Supreme Pontiff, instead they try to defend and carry on only their perilous heresies of all time.

.

I used the Ecclesiastical Paradigm and painful picture of casual pretino fashion before the Supreme Pontiff in indignified conditions to reiterate that Francis is the emblem of the harmful parent. It is the parent paradigm, Once a decision is made, before the demands of the child explanation, instead of answering, says to him: "Go and ask the neighbor, because he is an experienced parent, he'll give you to the correct interpretation of what I wanted to say '. Just as the Supreme Pontiff said when spurred by questions from journalists invited them to seek guidance to Cardinale Christoph von Schönborn. And you know well that, if there was no cry, it would be funny.

.

If a parent does not respond to his son, or fails to identify his son, together with the directive or command given, also the eventual punishment in which incur, He is likely to end up with a teenager who returns home drunk and drugged at three am, aware that the other side is not a merciful father, welcoming and inclusive, but a perfect irresponsible unable to assume their responsibilities. Even worse: even able, if necessary, of blaming the other teenage son who, aware of his age and the risks they can run, He leads a sober life and not going to be of joints around the slums with high-risk persons. E, said this, Please use the specialists of turn of the Holy Gospel and its worst adulteration, not daring to bring up the Parable of the prodigal son [cf.. LC 15, 11-32], because it teaches not to take blows to the loyal son and to raise the dissolute son as a model, all sorry and unwilling to correct himself. On the contrary, having run out of money and wondered data earlier by his father, the profligate back to him to ask for more money, and then return to dilapidarli with prostitutes. Because these are the models that often, in Contemporary Church, are made to pass the Prodigal Son, in defiance up to Christ the Lord and his holy gospel they teach anything.

.

Day after day, the Supreme Pontiff Francis is showing himself to be a parent at the height of his own irresponsibility, but not for that never cease to be, For better or for worse, our rightful parent. Therefore, son grieved, It can also tell: "I wish we had a different parent ', but always animated by the full knowledge that his parent is. And as such it must also accept it and respect it, up to accepting with no small amount of suffering that correcting and training the parent has never been the task of the children, while helping the parent, this is a real duty of children.

.

Finally, I offer a small “prophecy” at the end of this comment, entitled: In the death of the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI. Which might sound like a far-fetched fall style, if not properly explained. And my little “prophecy” it's this one: the Holy Father Benedict XVI, albeit bruised for understandable issues of age, although always perfectly polished, ninety years played is moving towards the natural end of his life, which could happen any day now. If indeed all, from birth, including infants, children and youth, They can be caught at any time from death, more so it is a nonagenarian.

.

Given that our churches are increasingly empty, that the cameramen the Vatican Television Center and of Sat2000 they do not know from what angle to frame an increasingly deserted Piazza San Pietro, trying to make it appear more or less full of faithful … well, That said, I say to: the day that will be celebrated the funeral obsequies of Pope Benedict XVI, predecessor of the reigning Pope, God's people will give the last square packed the history of the universal Church. And that square packed, as ever the more you will see in the future, it will be the sign and at the same time the judgment given by the People of God on the pontificate of a Supreme Pontiff who has received and bestowed smiles and words on everyone, even to a son of Lucifer like Marco Pannella, to an indomitable and unrepentant abortionist like Emma Bonino, to a wolf now disguised as a lamb like Eugenio Scalfari [cf.. Giovanni Cavalcoli, WHO]. He received in hearing and embraced the worst dictators dell’America Latina, who with great fall in style treated him to pats on the back and hugs around his waist; then using these images in their own countries to make the Bolivian people or the Venezuelan people believe that the Supreme Pontiff was on their side, What obviously false, totally false! But unfortunately, certain images, in the media have devastating impacts, with all due respect guru communications as Father Antonio Spadaro and Mons. Dario Edoardo Viganò, prudence of which is probably comparable to that of those who chose them and elected to certain offices delicate.

.

For all, the Supreme Pontiff Francis had smiles and answers, except for his brothers in the episcopate devotees, as the four cardinals in a very respectful tone demanded an answer, through the ecclesial form of so-called Dubia.

.

This is what will happen to the death of Pope Benedict XVI. Unless certain clerical luciferin, sensing also that the square you can not control and that a narrow square crowded around the coffin of 265 ° Successor of Peter, It would be a visible resounding judgment on this pontificate featuring interviews to secular newspapers of great tradition anticlerical, but at the same time it characterized by increasingly empty squares and churches, “Parino the image damage” imposing the celebration of the funeral obsequies privately. If anything inventing - because as such does not beat them to be liars anyone -, that the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI had left her hand that his funeral obsequies were celebrated in private.

.

They are spilled rivers of ink on the Venerable Pope Benedict XVI who has renounced the Petrine ministry retiring to private life, but no one has rated her yet “terrible danger” the dead, before a packed square as ever, with an army of Polish Catholics are able to reach Rome - as among others have repeatedly -, even walking and hitchhiking, to be present at the final burial of Pope St. Giovanni Paolo II, canonized, but not heard and not later. And that square crowded as ever, It would be a judgment on the pontificate of Pope Benedict XVI, He hated by the worst intelligentsia theological captive-Lutheran, but he loved by Catholics. But, that square packed, It would also be a terrible judgment on the reign of his successor, which on one side has bestowed smiles to Marco Pannella and Emma Bonino, interviews with Eugenio Scalfari and hugs to arcivescove Lutheran lesbian clad in priestly insignia, and at the same time ushering in the era of a pontificate with increasingly empty churches in Rome and the increasingly deserted Piazza San Pietro, while two of his cardinal devotees died after devotedly served the church all my life and have confirmed devotion in every way the August Pontiff, but he - the merciful -, It not deigned to receive them and to answer. Perhaps he not received them and did not answer because he was too busy to greet the arrival of hordes giovanottoni in perfect physical health, anything but fled famine and wars, all in the age group far below the Thirty Years', to absolute majority Muslims, which they are launched in the colonization of Europe by now dying dechristianized foraggiati funds from Saudi Arabia and Qatar, But even in spite they called foolish and reckless with anything but name: refugees. All this after having demonstrated the ability to read and to be able to articulate well two Latin words: soli juice

.

And who will live, will see, the day we bury his Venerable Predecessor Benedict XVI, if they do decide to avoid the big problem giving him a silent funeral, shut up …

Say the Fathers of The Island of Patmos

QUESTIONS TO THE HOLY FATHER ON THE JOY OF LOVE AND THE TRAGEDY OF HIS "HANDS TIED", IN A CHURCH GOVERNED BY WHO ?

.

More and more authoritative, reliable and numerous people who, after you failed to bring certain issues to the attention of the Holy Father, You were heard by him to answer: " … my hands are tied". The question is therefore of rigor: So who governs the Church?

.

.

Find the priest,

I follow some time assiduously and profit, because I see in your positions that mean street that has always characterized the Catholic Church and which now it seems to have almost disappeared, overwhelmed by the two opposite ends of conservatism and progressivism. But I wanted to ask an opinion on this pitch The joy of love n. 303 […] (C)ome to be understood well this part of The joy of love? That is, in the sense that you do not fall here in Moral of the situation ? To un po’ time are in a crisis on this point, because I can not get on top convincingly. I thank you and Jesus and Mary bless you and accompany you always!

The Apostolic Exhortation love joy recita al n. 303:

.

"Starting from the recognition of the weight of concrete conditionings, we can add that the consciousness of the people to be more involved in the Church's practice in some situations that objectively realize our conception of marriage. Of course we need to encourage the maturation of an enlightened consciousness, formed and accompanied by a responsible and serious discernment of the Shepherd, and propose an ever greater trust in the grace. But this consciousness can recognize not only that such a situation does not respond objectively to the general proposal of the Gospel; It can also recognize sincerely and honestly what for the moment is the generous response that can be offered to God, and discover with a certain moral certainty that this is the gift that God is calling in the middle of the concrete complexity limits, although it is not yet fully the objective ideal. Anyhow, remember that this discernment is dynamic and must always remain open to new stages of growth and to new decisions in order to realize the ideal more fully ».

.

Repeated questions that many readers have turned, including our Priests Brothers, are more or less those that follow: what the situation is? Clearly this is the situation in which the couple is united sexually illicitly. And why the situation objectively corresponds to the general proposal of the Gospel, which prohibits adultery, always and in any case. So much so that many, including our Priests Brothers, they wonder: Is there not the risk of falling into “Moral of the situation?”.

Now, the consciousness of certain pairs in a state of irregularities, can recognize "with sincerity and honesty that for the moment " this situation "It is the generous response that can be offered to God, and discover with a certain moral certainty that this is the gift that God himself is requesting " ? There may be a case in which God views marriage as adulterous "He is requesting that donations?” .

Moreover: un'unione counterfeit, can be considered in some cases, a situation that "It is not yet fully the objective ideal ", ie a situation in itself honest - indeed even a "God's gift" ―, but only imperfect, “that needs to mature to reach the ideal situation?” . And what would, then, this “ideal situation?”. Marriage and legitimate union that goes with it?

Still others wonder:then adulterous union, in certain cases, is a union not unlawful, but it could simply be imperfect union, need to mature to reach the ideal of marriage ?”. But then marriage, which it is the summit of a union between man and woman, “may entail, in certain cases, as the lower and imperfect stage, adulterous union or rather the adulterous union in any case it is always illegal?” . L'Union counterfeit, therefore illegal, It is perhaps not always prohibited by the Gospel?

In previous lines I quoted a number of questions many will ask myself and that many are asking us more and more frequently. Not to speak of in the face of such situations, many Priests Our Brothers who exercise their ministry of confessors, They are expressing increasing in a state of confusion, or worse in the position of not being able to give adequate answers.

That being said I wonder: Perhaps it could - or perhaps we should - express in any other way. For example, you would say that the pair, when it is in an irregular situation for hypothesis can not be eliminated, morally very dangerous, where the temptation is almost irresistible, is located by itself in a situation in which easily, or almost inevitably, It is induced by the erotic urge to commit the sin of adultery. However, God's mercy is not absent even in these situations. The sin, Although behave objectively grave matter, It may have subjective mitigating such that, if both lose gracefully, They can recover with a sincere repentance, by acts of penance and asking forgiveness from God, then, returns the lost grace. For as many times the Fathers de The Island of Patmos They expressed in the now numerous items of explanation and clarification on the subject, since the end of the Synod of the Family [see our article database], It is that no one can presume, much less establish, that a person, or a couple of people, be self, always and in any case, outside of God's grace permanently. God alone, indeed, can read and especially to judge the deep consciousness of man. Element why should certainly not take us to conveniently de-Empowerment, call to give up sin for what it is, ie sin, let alone to change sin into good. If indeed, by the grace of God and with God's grace, Also from sin can come good, it does not mean that sin is good. This is not what is meant when, in praise of Cero, on the words of a sermon of St. Augustine is sung in the Easter Proclamation: « or felix blame, , which gained for us so great a Redeemer » [O blessed fault, It did to deserve such a there and so great a Redeemer].

It is clear that these considerations and these regulations, as in general those of 'love joy, pointing to the issue of the practice of the Sacraments [cf. Note n. 351] only apply to Catholic couples, and do not interfere at all, and in any way, in the autonomy of the civil law of the State with regard to the so-called civil unions people not interested in Christian life, often not even belonging to or linked to the Catholic Church.

Rev. Fathers,

Tonight, rigirandomi in bed, m'è surfaced in mind the passage from Matthew 5, 23-24 : "If you're going to present your gift to the altar, e là ti ricordi che tuo fratello ha qualcosa contro di te, leave there thy gift, before the altar, and must 'first be reconciled to your brother. Then come back and offer your gift "before I associated myself course, making an examination of conscience. my behavior, my actions, the commitment I have to devote to observe painstakingly such teaching, then I associated with the Pope, to its non-response to dubia of his brother-cardinals, to petitions signed by bishops, theology, and faithful. And so I have some questions were: Is it possible that the Pope does not know these words of the Gospel? and why not to want to give the impression of watching? They go maybe interpreted differently, without any bi-directionality? Can you clarify these my doubts?

Dear Readers, soon we need money, because in December we must renew all service subscriptions for the site de The Island of Patmos. Until we reach as always for your support, S. AND. President Vladimir Putin, You are given the content of certain writings of Father Ariel, He has offered sponsor Factory tanks of the Russian Federation, waiting to appoint chaplain Heavy Artillery Forces, obviously with stipend …

"If you're going to present your gift to the altar, e là ti ricordi che tuo fratello ha qualcosa contro di te, leave there thy gift, before the altar, and must 'first be reconciled to your brother. Then come back and offer your gift " [Mt 5, 23-24]. This phrase from the Gospel of the Blessed Evangelista Matteo, It is used as a warning in the Rite Ambrosiano. Indeed, during Holy Mass, before the offertory rites, the celebrant turns this admonition to invite the assembly to exchange the sign of peace.

After the liturgical reform, in the Roman Missal of Blessed Pope Paul VI it was added to the "sign of peace". For years I keep repeating that its location, in my humble opinion, He was nothing short of miserable. Indeed, the Holy Gospel, It is not written that we recognize him from the exchange of the sign of peace, but it is written that the disciples, off along the Way to Emmaus, they recognized the breaking of bread [cf. LC 24, 13-35].

In the Roman Rite the exchange of the sign of peace often it occurs between inopportune musics, clapping, rhythmic bongos and singing synagogue misplaced shouting "shalom, shalom!», and it is placed in a very particular liturgical context: the breakage of bread. And so, while the priest who acts in Person Christi e che come old christ fractionates the sacred bread which the Lord Jesus is present in the blood, body and divinity, it often happens that the assembly members, formed mostly by noisy people engaged in another, They move to the right and misses to bestow handshakes and so to follow. And some bad habits have become so entrenched that some time, most of Priests, They have thrown in the towel and pretend nothing, as if together with the function consacration they had not even that the task of teaching requiring him to teach and instruct the People of God, which must recognize Christ by the breaking of bread, not by dancing exchanges of signs of peace. And not to mention the priests' superstar, who came to the exchange of the sign of peace, bad to better educate the People of God, leave unattended the Body and Blood of Christ over the Eucharistic table to go down between the assembly to give handshakes, hugs and pats on the back to all.

Using a hyperbolic, our reader wonders if the Pope knows the words of Apostolo Matteo blessed that we described at the beginning. Like this, It also is doing as much use of hyperbole, course to be taken as such, and certainly not as ironic disrespect, potrei aggiungere: I wonder if he knows those words that tell:

.

«Simone, Simone, behold Satan has demanded to sift you like wheat; but I prayed for you, that thy faith fail not:; and you, turned again, strengthen your brothers "Luke 22, 31-32].

.

Because that's what we're waiting: che si ravveda, then confirm his brothers in faith [cf. our previous articles WHO, WHO]. Ma, per confermare, it must first be clear; and if there is no clarity, in such a case must be made, because otherwise it does not confirm any, you risk confusing.

I understand that for many devout Catholics is not easy - and even for us priests, it often is -, but we must do so to put his mind at rest, because now we have proof, try again and double check that the Roman Pontiff does not govern the Church. Unhappy choices are multiplying day after day together with disastrous appointments to dioceses and at the offices of the Holy See itself, in a creepy swarm of people preposterous, often burdened by serious moral and doctrinal issues.

In the same diocese of Rome, short regret with tears in his eyes the former vicar general of His Holiness, Cardinal Agostino Vallini, saw the way his successor has placed in prominent historic parishes also many priests who would be an understatement to define problematic and disturbed, including the one in a major Roman basilica foraggiava a tour of young Romanian prostitute, of which preserved entire collections of photographic services of their naked while they were in the shower family ceded. Another thing to say, to be understood, from all over the Vicariate, since the time when he was vicar Cardinal Camillo Ruini and the Secretary General of the same Vicariate the current Bishop of Tivoli, Mauro Parmeggiani. Just as it was known to all that the church had been dubbed the basilica ATM, at which the gay young people went to refuel, then leaving it out with two or three hundred Euros in your pocket. Even though today, thanks to the foresight of the Vicario Angelo De Donatis, It was placed in a monumental parish center, which oversees seven old rectories, with probable increase of hustlers and nude photo shoots in the shower, because the experience should teach the Church that certain problems are not solved by moving disturbed by a large parish to parish, but caring for them - if they agree to be treated - and above all enabling them to not to endanger more. But if it happens that a good Roman presbyter is slammed as they say fuck the world in a remote parish on the big ring road of Rome, and a disturbed instead of this kind has a similar arrangement, this can only happen because the disturbed - who now run many dioceses, including apparently also that of His Holiness -, They are protected and carried out by individuals and how much disturbed them, as it is perhaps the same vicar general of His Holiness for the diocese of Rome, well to evaluate certain dangerous choices before which all can say, the present and future, unless those famous words: "Ah, but I, I knew nothing about it!». In this case then inform himself, because on this subject at high risk, there is always the acts my report with evidence and witnesses delivered by hand during 2011 Diocesan Ordinary from my era the then Prefect of the Congregation for the Clergy, Cardinal Mauro Piacenza. The same relationship was by me personally delivered to the outgoing Nunzio Apostolico in Italy, Cardinale Giuseppe Bertello, Today Governor of Vatican City, who transmitted promptly to the Secretary of State of His Holiness, which in turn he transmitted it to the Vicar General for the Diocese of Rome, Cardinal Agostino Vallini.

And if I lie, or even tell the truth, but they say in a partial way and altering the data in fact objective, or worse yet accomplished the truth for who knows what dirty intentions hidden, It would be least appropriate that were first denied, then subjected to all the necessary canonical proceedings, species having said, before an audience of tens of thousands of readers, a vicar for the Diocese of Rome that system in prominent places like the disturbed so overt, far from being able to say today or tomorrow, "I knew nothing», can only be, around you, a person equally disturbed. Or is it a subject subjected to blackmail and as such must of necessity arrange the worst elements in the best places, if you want to have quiet life with the members of that Pretaglia that for a band from monsignor would sell their own mother to the Campo dei Fiori market, to say the least …

When in private some have asked something to the Holy Father, or simply ran to him to beg him to cancel the choice of the bishop just selected some mafia gang ecclesiastical, before the appointment was made official, it is a subject that gave big problems ever since he was a seminarian, so much so that it would be appropriate not only, not to bishop, but do not do their own priest at the time, his, several times, He responded to various people: "I can not do anything, my hands are tied". The same happened when someone, He is able to speak personally with the Holy Father, He did present some serious violations and as many serious injustice: "I'll see what I can do", and concluded "... I do not know if I can do anything, with certain people because my hands are tied ".

More and more authoritative, attendibili e numerose le persone that, after you failed to bring certain issues to the attention of the Holy Father, You were heard by him to answer: " … my hands are tied".

Initially we thought that behind certain tell or not tell the Holy Father, before some of its losses from answers that they involved a simple "yes" or a simple "no", There was his character element, typical of certain cultures of Latin America, where things are never called directly, but with use of innuendo, sometimes with ambiguity. Instead we have now established that there are much more complex situations, of which he is the first victim; it's surely, within himself, only God can know how much they suffer, experiencing him first, as all of us who love the Church, a deep sense of impotence.

The Holy Father smiles, sometimes even makes pleaser più o meno opportuno, sometimes it even seems that it is an authoritarian, and instead it is not, because if there's one thing that any authoritarian does very well, It is to say "yes" or "no", or "you can do it" or "you can not do". And after the authoritarian he has made his statement, is not very well contradict.

I tend to believe that the Holy Father would be able to say "yes" or "no", but can not do it, because to have freedom of movement is not enough to live in suite instead of a hotel in the papal, for access to which was the filter - all in all also very useful - Secretary of State. As a result, if you placed in front of some very specific questions, Pope disappears and, de facto, the devoted children who beg, unresponsive. Simply said,: if you can not say "yes" or "no", the reason is partly simple, in part painful: he is not to govern the Church. O best hypothesis: It does not have control of the government. To govern the Church, today they are roped of people more or less known; I say more or less known because the real governors, those who do not know because hidden behind the scenes, They are the real culprits of the disaster. The concrete examples to that effect? Soon said: we reached the apotheosis of science fiction with the Post Office of Vatican City State who dedicate a commemorative stamp to Martin Lutero [cf. Vittorio Messori, WHO], while more articles, the official organ of the Holy See, The Osservatore Romano, He even bestowed the title of "reform" and “reformer” this tragic and painful schism with which this heretic has torn the Church. We have reached the so-called inter-communions with Protestants, or worse to concelebrations ecumenical Holy Mass with people who do not have apostolic succession, do not recognize the Sacrament of Orders and the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. We have reached the Waldensian pastors invited to give the sermon in our churches during the liturgical action, because having them previously invited to teach courses at our disaster ecclesiastical universities was not sufficient enough, because what the devil wanted and had hit was the heart of the Eucharistic Sacrifice of the Mass. And so on to follow, thanks to an uncontrolled army and become uncontrollable priests exhibitionists and narcissists, It consists of topics ranging from those who support the theory of gender those who bless two lesbian brides to the altar, and forth to follow ...

At this point you could incinerate the Code of Canon Law as a book completely useless, place on it, between the various serious offenses - remember that involve that fact excommunication and at the same time involve the commission of a sin absolution of which is reserved to the Holy See - to be followed clearly indicated:

.

"The most serious crimes against the sanctity of Sacrifice and Sacrament of the Eucharist reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith are: […] 4° the concelebration of the Eucharistic Sacrifice prohibited in can. 908 the Code of Canon Law and by canon. 702 of the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, that mentioned in can. 1365 the Code of Canon Law and in can. 1440 of the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, along with ministers of ecclesial communities which do not have apostolic succession and do not recognize the sacramental dignity of priestly ordination " [see texts, WHO].

.

And today, before certain havoc Eucharistic made in the name of a vague, exotic and mostly arbitrary misconception of ecumenism, if someone dares to remember that there is and always has in place a church law that certain crimes relegates them into the category of serious offenses, there is to be accused of legalism and self-righteousness, or even idolatry of harsh and arid law, with the inevitable priest wicked, under the helpless gaze of his bishop inept and therefore more wicked ancòra him, replica: "Nah Canon Law, stuff legalism Tridentine! What is now important is the dialogue, the pace, the love …". And none of these individuals has unfortunately a bishop, first, if he sits up front and asks: "Now you tell me what you think are dialogue, peace and love", then the tones in soul and body with a fine suspension peep for one or two years, sending it into a proper center for spirituality with the obligation to study well the foundations of Catholic Doctrine, no more right to celebrate Mass in public, to preach and administer the confessions, until it has not been shown to have learned and know it well, the Catholic Doctrine.

Gentlemen, it's not that " Something is rotten in the state of Denmark » ["There is something rotten in Denmark"], as Hamlet said, because in the Holy Church of Christ, the rotten, We are now gone anarchy. In the Church broke out anarchy, and today, this anarchy, It is uncontrollable and unmanageable, but especially self-destructive. Therefore, to tell the truth, very critical to various individuals with regard to Pope Francis I, a bit 'of time now I usually respond by saying that in a time of advanced decay and profound ecclesial and ecclesiastical crisis like the one we are experiencing today, even the Popes Saints Gregorio Magno and Leone Magno would be able to handle such chaos.

The visible church is a sick body in a terminal state, before which no one can claim that the Holy Father will heal metastases that are in the state final degenerative; and saying this, as usual are good and optimistic, because maybe, the current state, rather than metastases in the state final degenerative, you should talk about how impossible it is to revive a corpse lying in the morgue.

The hope, as I have often written and repeated, therefore remains that theological virtue that is in the middle and in its own way combines among them the faith and charity. It is therefore with genuine hope that we hope and believe that, «again», the Holy Father will confirm his brothers in faith, mindful of the words spoken by Christ the Lord to Peter, his first Supreme Predecessor :

.

«Simone, Simone, behold Satan has demanded to sift you like wheat; but I prayed for you, that your faith may not fail ".

.

But if we think about it, even then it was all written, and at the same time it confirmed with unequivocal words addressed by the Blessed Apostolo Paolo to discepolo Timoteo:

.

« Ti scongiuro davanti a Dio e a Cristo Gesù che verrà a giudicare i vivi e i morti, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, do warn, reproaches, exhorts with all magnanimity and doctrine. The day will come, indeed, when they will not endure sound doctrine;, ma, having itching ears they, will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings, refusing to listen to the truth to turn to fairy tales. But you shall carefully, endure suffering, do the work of the gospel proclaimer, adempi il tuo ministero » [II Tm 4, 1-5].

.

And, tverything it was already written, but at this point, the dying corpse of this visible Church can only now that dying, because the Church will survive until the return of Christ at the end of time, it is not the visible Church of the modernists or Lefebvre, least of all the Church of the now powerful lobby clerical gay in power, with all its affiliates and its powerful protectors gay friendly. The one who survives is the Mystical Body of Christ Church, one of which He is the head and we are living members [cf. With the 1, 18]. Quella, is the Church that never die and will rejoin the Divine Spouse in the Heavenly Jerusalem the end of time in perfect communion of Saints. Or maybe someone really thought that the eternal Church convolerà marriage to the Lamb Victorious, was the theater of these four squalid clerical often torn between heretics and perverts?

Come on! We are not at all on the island Patmos vacation, or because it was a quirky name that struck. A Patmos been staying there on the Apocalypse Author footsteps, the great exiled John, and together Apostle we live in the place of the last revelation, projected towards the 'ἔσχατον, the last things, although surrounded by men of the Church who drown in this completely and immediately, drunk with the Gnostic and pleasure "of tomorrow there is no certainty" that opened the doors before to the Enlightenment anti-Christ-with the political pretext of anti-, then to modernism, and finally - the history of our days - quell’ateismo clergy for whom everything is permitted, beyond Good and Evil, including the desecration of our bodies enshrined in the Sacred Order of Priests.

I believe in the resurrection of the dead and in the life of the world that will be.

Amen!

That Eugenio Scalfari white-haired clown continues to offend the Supreme Pontiff, while the Holy See continues to remain silent, instead of denying

- we defend the Holy Father from false friends -

CANUTO THAT CLOWN EUGENIO SCALFARI CONTINUE TO OFFEND THE POPE, WHILE THE HOLY SEE CONTINUES TO REMAIN SILENT, INSTEAD DENY

.

It is our sacred duty to defend the Successor of Peter, who you are required to be a master of wisdom and prudence. We can also expose Scalfari games, but we can not fail to take note that the Holy Father is manifested sometimes unwise. If you admit this, an army of faithful astray, wounded and grieved, it would ask us this question which would not be easy to answer: He admitted that Scalfari claims and write nonsense attributed to the Holy Father, who is receiving it and that speaks to us, if not the Holy Father himself? And after Scalfari he has made certain shoot, How come, the relevant information organ of the Holy See, do not deny? And to answer a similar question, unfortunately it is not easy.

Giovanni Cavalcoli is not vegetarian, is only one patient …

The escalation of those who shoot biggest, it seems to have no end. The Devil, that throughout history shows considerable ingenuity in always repeated and always vain attempt to destroy the Church of Christ, starting with the Papacy, who it is the rock upon which Christ wanted it rests [cf. Mt 16, 13-20], He is suggesting to his human instruments regarding the pontificate Pope Francis, a new, subtle and effective tactic, to discredit and overthrow the Papacy. This subtle tactic is inspired by a method which so far, the Evil, He had never adopted; a refined technique as paradoxical, that is no longer that of traditional denigration, ie to attack the Pope in the name of modernity and progress. It is not what it used to accuse the Pope to oppose the reforms and freedom, person indicated as closed to the prophetic voices, or as a reactionary bastion of conservation and the worst backwardness, representative of the ruling classes and a God prohibitionist and legalistic, as well as terrifying provoker of guilt. All charges, these, which were different but similar riots, very turbulent historical periods, both to Blessed Pope Pius IX is the Holy Pontiff Pius X.

None of this, in our present which it is a real hive of skilled and blatant sycophants, fake fake admirers and associates that arise like mushrooms everywhere. These characters, falsely interpreting the teaching of the Pope, It would give us to understand that he is the modernist or, as they say, «Progressive», obviously intending to progress in their own way, certainly not in that sense imprinted on the deepest and Christological ecclesiology that brought the Blessed Paul VI to give us the Encyclical Development of Peoples [cf. text WHO].

Among all flatterers, the most famous, the most ingenious, the biggest faker and provocateur, It is certainly Eugenio Scalfari, which we review a couple of formidable outputs, Dating back to the 2 August and one at 9 October. The first of the two outlets - one in August -, ironically it is indicated by Francesco Agnoli on daily The truth as a formidable output, of historic significance: "The usual Scalfari uses Bergoglio failed to show a church". The things, But, They are not exactly like [cf. WHO].

The operation is more fiendishly subtle: Scalfari pretends to be an admirer of the Pope and thus affected not want at all to destroy the Church, but you enthusiastic spokesperson and interpreter - he, atheist - as the Pope of "revolutionary today», It means the Church. Indeed, he would have us believe that the Pope proposes a new model of Church, that in reality, if we do care, is false church-good, secularized, relativistic, meatloaf, turncoats and politicized, designed and prophesied by Freemasonry since the eighteenth century and modernist laggards, as a philanthropic society and a-dogmatic, that enter, as malleable member, the international federation of religions under the chairmanship of the international community. What it was once the dream of Leibniz and the secret society of the Rosicrucians in the seventeenth century, then that is the dream of all the Gnostics.

In this episode cited by Francesco Agnoli we can add a new recent reported by Seismograph the 9 Last October and taken by Republic. The words are as follows Scalfari:

.

"... Pope Francis abolished places after death the souls should go: Inferno, Purgatory, Paradiso […] All souls have the grace and therefore are born perfectly innocent, and these remain unless you take up the way of evil. If they are aware of it and do not repent even at death, they are condemned. Pope Francis - I repeat - abolished the places of eternal residence in’ Beyond the souls. The thesis he sustained is that the souls dominated by evil and do not repent cease to exist and those that have been redeemed from evil will be made from bliss contemplating God. This is the thesis of Francis' [text, WHO].

.

These things that Scalfari attributes to the Pope are false, They would make the Pope a heretic and they are just as well, pure inventions of that incredible brazen that Eugenio Scalfari. What the wicked at death cease to exist and do not go to hell is not an idea of ​​the Pope, but heresy Edward Schillbeeckx [1]. And to demonstrate this, If there was need, sufficient to mention these words said the Pontiff to the Mafia, filming a stern warning already addressed by the Holy Father Giovanni Paolo II [cf. video WHO] members of mafia groupings:

.

«Be converted, There is still time, not to end up in hell. That's what awaits you if you continue on this road. You have had a dad and a mom: think of them. Cry a little 'and be converted " [cf. WHO].

.

And also we take care of these other words Apostle John, who still continues: "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire" [cf. AP 20, 14]. It is those damned. The Pope wanted to dwell on this very sentence of the Apocalypse: "This is the second death, the lake of fire " [cf. supra]. In reality, has explained, "Eternal damnation is not a torture chamber, this is a description of this second death: is a death '. And "those who will not be received into the kingdom of God - he explained - is because they have not approached the Lord: They are those that have always gone their own way, moving away from the Lord and pass before the Lord and go away on their own ". Therefore, "eternal damnation is constantly straying from God, It is the greatest pain: a dissatisfied heart, a heart that has been done to find God, but for pride, for being too sure of himself, He has turned away from God " [cf. WHO].

Another thing in which Scalfari shows crass ignorance of Christian doctrine, It is when you ask:

.

"Who should be the existence of the Devil? It's a power contrary to God, or is God himself in a robe deliberately opposite to the natural? The Catholic-Christian religion obviously distinguishes between good and evil, but it does not address the origin of evil: it is God himself who created it when he recognized his human creatures the right to free will?» [cf. WHO]

.

We may limit to respond referring to these astonishing words to Catechism of the Catholic Church. However, we give a short answer. As taught by the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215, "The devil and the other demons were indeed created by God good, but they themselves have become wicked " [Denz. 800]. As for the origin of evil, The Bible teaches clearly that it must be attributed to the evil of Satan: «The death entered the world through the envy of the devil and experience make those who belong to him" [Sap 2,24].

God has given to His creatures, angels and men, freewill; but the misuse of this is not God's fault, but of the creature. Men are not born innocent, but with the stain of original sin, that is removed from Baptism. The new tactics of the enemies of the papacy was truly fine. Let's look in more detail the operation diabolical cunning of these flatterers, that is unbelievable, if he had not supported by the facts. That, that for now - while it lasts -, it works, is that the traditional enemies of the Church: Protestants, Freemasons, Liberals, Epicurean, atheists, positivists, relativists, idealists, pantheists, gnostics, Communists, a die-hard enemies time, open and declared the Church, Today they did, in a grandiose tacit pact, a kind of shameless turnaround. With incredible chutzpah, often under the bishops reticent eyes, They have infiltrated the Church in the modernist and robes and rahneriani, from the inside of the Church, posing as outposts of progressivism, It has gone from hot allegations to the Popes of the past to the effusive praise than today, praise evidently affected, the use of dolphins, twisting in their favor certain the Pope's speeches, that does not always shine for clarity and, honestly, we have to recognize as well that are sometimes equivocal. All this to support their lies, keeping silent on the major issues of faith and morality to which they manifestly contrary, then taking dishonestly, that upon which the Pope is silent, as a denial or a formal refusal on his part. So, a fraud of gigantic proportions epochal, making it appear the Pope, grin with pleasure, like one of them. In doing so - Think about it - the Church today has no more external enemies, because suddenly like the world. Enemies are now all interior and I'm: or masked, how modernists, or open, as Lefebvre.

The modernists, that until Benedict XVI attacked the papacy, Now make the praises. But were modernists; and they believe and do believe that the Pope is one of them. But - for the uninitiated - Modernism is a heresy and it is not possible that a Pope is conscious heretic.

But, as the saying goes, the devil makes the pots, but not the covers. Because of this, their game, can not let filter of cracks; and of these the most obvious is the shot of Scalfari - that we shall soon see -, shot that, among all those of flatterers, It is the biggest, the most brazen and the most tacky, but also the most brilliant, which as such, while undoubtedly denotes a sharp mind, He discovers evidence dirt and dishonesty of the game. It is a stab that hurts deeply. But we can heal. "We have to study it in depth", says Scalfari. And he's right. But with its criteria. One would curse him. But we must remain calm and look into the issue.

But what is this shot? It's the following. Dad, Scalfari said four years ago

.

«[…] It is revolutionary in many aspects of his albeit brief pontificate, but above all on a fundamental point: in fact it abolished sin. A Pope who has changed the Church, indeed the Church hierarchy, on an issue of this radicalism, He had never seen, at least the third century on the history of Christianity and did it operates simultaneously on the theology, on the doctrine, on liturgy, on the organization. Especially on the theology […] This is the revolution of Francis and this is examined in depth, especially after the publication of the Apostolic Exhortation The gospel of joy, where the abolition of sin is the most shocking part of all this very recent document ' [item, WHO].

.

This shot of Scalfari requires adequate psychological and moral analysis, because with undoubted, even if mischievous sharpness of view, touches or, we could say, to pinch, albeit with coarse brutality, but also with a certain openness, albeit down, just what seems to us the central issue of the Pope's preaching, not quite clear on this point, and evokes, which apprentice wizard, a ghost of the bad conscience of the contemporary gooders: the question of sin.

If it were not Scalfari which is dishonest quell'intellettualmente, God would give him the ability to be an intellectual adviser to the Pope. Maybe - if I'm not naive - you should read his message down or negative, as if to say: “Francesco, parlaci of peccato!”. Of course, that, He took as they are, Scalfari's words are objectively a terrible insult and slander to the magisterium of the Pope - although Scalfari believes him a praise -, and to the Catholic doctrine. It is perhaps a boutade? The thing is too serious to joke. A shot to get publicity? It's possible, but Scalfari does not pay too high a price for its reputation? An atheist has nothing to lose maybe? No, It also has a conscience, with which he has to answer to God. And so I want to take it seriously and respond briefly, even though the issue would require a book.

First, the penalty demand: but the Pope who makes? He notices all this? To tell the truth, Unfortunately, It does not give signs in this sense. Neither he nor whoever he intervenes to correct bad interpretations. Come May? He can not keep up with all? the snubs? It's afraid of the reactions? He is not informed? Difficult to answer. That approve, when it comes to heresy, is unthinkable. The least one can say is that the situation is abnormal, never occurred in these dimensions and frequency with previous Papi.

Scalfari, taking advantage of the Pope's silence and benevolence of those against him, raises the bar. But for how long this horrible joke? This affront to papal dignity? It is the thing that disturbs more. It is obviously interpreting the phenomenon in order to safeguard the dignity of the Pope's magisterial, and do not make room for Lefebvre who accuse him of being a heretic. What to say, so?

Let us see what are the responsibilities from one and the other side. The blame for this huge mistake and this terrible devil is, in my opinion, from both sides. It looks like a game of hide and seek or mirrors, If the situation were not tragic, and we were not going half souls. The Pope is pastorally unwise and imprudent, It lends itself to the game, It seems driven by a certain opportunism, and the modernists, who are scoundrels, take advantage shamelessly. The Pope is maneuvered and at the same time it leaves maneuver. He believed to be circumspect, but do it without even noticing. It should help the Pope to free themselves from modernist.

So the thesis of flatterers of the papacy palingenetic, heralded with enthusiasm and plenty of media from the rooftops to millions of gullible believers and gloating, is that, after centuries and millennia, we finally the turning point of a Pope "revolutionary" (Scalfari), the Pope of the God who does not punish, but who forgives all (Rahner), the poor Pope, of workers, the exploited and immigrants, promoter of freedom of peoples (Mature), leader of the international left (Castro, Gutiérrez, Maradiaga), Indeed, the Pope finally introduced freedom in the Church (Bianchi), Pope's mercy and tenderness (Ronchi, Cantalamessa), ecumenical reconciliation (Kasper, Küng), the dialogue between the "faiths" and the Church "spontaneous" and "relaxed" (Radcliffe), the Pope's primacy of conscience (Soda), of modernity (Cricket), tolerance and tenderness (Straw), the Pope of the universal brotherhood, even with the Masons (Ravasi) and Muslims, the Pope BUSINESS (Galantino) and the Council (the valley), Pope of "turning prophetic" (next meeting in Assisi) and turning points (Melloni).

It is interesting that no one ever praises the Pope in his primary and fundamental task, which it is to be teacher of the faith and of the heresies oppugnatore. Perhaps you would find some altar, that embarrass admirers. How does Scalfari to say a huge amount of the genre? It is possible that he starts from a mistaken concept of sin. But there does not seem appropriate to examine the Scalfari written what he meant by "sin". I think this is enough to remember what is really sin, according to Catholic moral and therefore according to the Pope's thinking, who is the Master.

But what is sin? So let us say that sin is a free human act, with which the person knowingly and willingly does what is evil, ie that which is forbidden by divine law, which is owned by Practical Reason [2]. The infringement of human law is the crime or crime. The implementation of the divine command sorts the human act to the attainment of the ultimate goal of human action, who is God, supreme good of man. The human action is related to a plurality of purposes, based on the human nature and hierarchized between them, on top of which there is God. The will, in some of its acts, You can go directly to God. But even if the human act pursues an interim order, to be a morally good act, however it is necessary that the agent orders at least implicitly to God the interim order. Sin is when the will or rejects God directly, or, instead orient themselves to God as the ultimate goal, albeit through the intermediary of an intermediate end, He chooses as the ultimate end of an intermediate [The conversion to a commutable] implicitly rejecting God [Turning away from God]. Sin leaves the conscience and the will into a state of agitation or restlessness, which is called "fault". It can be removed using the discount or served their sentences, in the case of the crime, while, whether it is sin, which causes the loss of divine grace, sin is forgiven, ie canceled, and the fault is removed from the divine forgiveness, Rido che la Grazia, on condition of repentance and penance the sinner. The blame diminishes or completely lacking in cases where the subject acts or through ignorance or weakness or because overwhelmed by passions. If consciousness errs in good faith, the subject performs, with such consciousness, objectively bad action, but remains innocent, at least before God.

The notion of sin is a fundamental notion, intuitive, spontaneous and ineradicable of legal consciousness, natural and Christian morality. It enters the deposit of divine revelation, guarded and interpreted by the Supreme Pontiff. Because of this, The only imagine that the Pope can "abolish" the notion of sin and sin itself, idea is blasphemous, absolutely, grossly offensive of the pontifical magisterium.

It should be noted that the human will, in this life, He can not oppose evil nor can avoid sin. Everything is going to see what we mean by "evil" and "sin". This is therefore also in buonista, with the difference, respect the right man, that he is a sinner and fight against sin, and it has a rule for the practice of justice and severity, for which he curbs his sins and opposes the sins of others with a just severity. The feel-good, instead, devoid of this rule of justice and deceived precisely error buonista, that does not recognize the existence of sin, if someone opposes citing the existence of sin and the need to be punished, you imbestialisce and attacks him or if he gets the chance of having to Justice, not disposing of a right criterion of judgment, It is unleashed into violence and bullying. So the false mercy becomes cruelty.

To believe that all moral problems They can simply solve with good will, in a continuous progress - the "magnificent and progressive", on which satirized Giacomo Leopardi -, without the help of grace and adequate ascetic discipline, It is the tragic illusion, typical of rationalist moral, as liberalism and Freemasonry. But on the other hand, trust in divine mercy does not exempt from the struggle against sin and the duty to obey the law, who punishes evildoers. Indeed, coercion and the use of force with justice and moderation, at the right moment, It is necessary to curb the wicked and have an educational function.

That feel-good concept of sin which leads to the denial of sin is in some way within the general trend buonista, for which all basically are good and well-wishers. In this view there is a pantheism and then a latent atheism: the subject believes to be good, because after all he is God. villains, if anything, They are the other, that does not give my idea that all are good. Therefore, there is "consequences" of original sin. To sin and suffer falls in human nature. Death is natural. If nature is hostile, God has nothing to do. It is nature that is like that. All they saved. Who does evil, it is either ignorance or weakness. Sin seems bad for the individual, but actually it falls in the general order of the universe. Some even say that, since everything is God, everything is fine. Sin is not a bad thing true, but it is an imperfection. Sin is only a hiccup in the path of evolution. Everyone apologized and whoever does evil must not be punished, or correct, or threatened, but it must be left free and tolerated. We can not judge others by external criteria to their conscience, because that would be an imposition. Indeed, what is bad for us can be good for others. It is therefore necessary to see things from their point of view. There are no rules or universal and immutable laws, but only particular and concrete situations standards. Everyone is free to act according to his conscience. God always forgives and does not punish. There is no evil of guilt, but only penalty. Feelings of guilt are no signs that he has sinned, but they are simple to cure diseases with psychoanalysis. There are no bad people, but all have grace and save. In hell there is no one. The crime is explained by psychological predispositions (Lombroso) or environmental influences (Rousseau) or class economic conditions (Marx) or sexual orientation (Freud).

Analyzing the problem of hidden truth in error, it is natural to offer a suggestion to the Holy Father. On the other hand we observe that the large aberrations of the human mind, as for example what Scalfari attributes to Pope, I am never so false as not to cover a bit of truth and are never so absurd, not to receive some explanation, especially if born out of a fine mind and evil genius - from clever foolishness, you could say paradoxically - like that of Scalfari. Let us ask then how he may be come up with the idea balzana? On what basis or facts? Starting from what? We believe that in some way it can be put in relation with a defect in the preaching of the Pope on the subject of sin. Without being a feel-good, the Pope is dangerously close to the ideas of do-gooders. In his anxiety to be next to all, to welcome all and to go to all, especially the "discarded", Poors, the oppressed, the suffering, it is projected to the "suburbs", he is, as once it was said, "Too indulgent". They, Instead of moderating the feel-good trend already present in Vatican II, for a moderate recovery of discipline, regularity, observance, austerity and severity, which for a long time the Church feels the need in education, in the formation of the clergy, as in the pastoral, in the government of souls, Church and society, dad, I said, as they say, It is "too good", permissive and accondiscendente, the risk then go out in harsh attitudes with those who do not deserve them, according to the mechanism that I described before.

The Holy Father is too severe to the Lefebvre, too lenient towards the modernists. It is good to recognize the commonalities with the Lutherans, but also should correct their mistakes. It's good to recognize monotheism in the Qur'an, but it should also encourage Muslims to convert to Christ. It's good to recognize communism instance of social justice; but it should also condemn the atheistic materialism; It does well to exhort to welcome immigrants, but it should also invite the vigilance against terrorists, parasites and saboteurs; It does well to cultivate inter-religious dialogue, but it should also remember that Catholic Christianity is the highest of religions, the only error; Call it Bonino "great Italian", but it is more clear in the condemnation of abortion; It does well to exhort homosexuals to love yourself, but strongly condemns sodomy; peace is not achieved only through dialogue, but also with the moderate use of force; irregular families are not only families "wounds", but there are also those who wound, corrupt and scandalous.

Not enough to proclaim the truths of the gospel that please the world, but we must also announce those that displease. The Pope says that should not be flatterers: well, At that time, if you take them out of the way replacing them with competent employees, loyal and sincere. This would truly be a revolutionary Pope, a never before seen Pope, a Pope of reforms. In this way the Pope will take away any pretext to the nonsense of Scalfari and its "similar".

It is our sacred duty to defend the Successor of Peter, who you are required to be a master of wisdom and prudence. We can also expose Scalfari games, but we can not fail to take note that the Holy Father is manifested sometimes unwise. If you admit this, an army of faithful astray, wounded and grieved, they would ask us this question which would not be easy to answer: He admitted that Scalfari claims and write nonsense attributed to the Holy Father, who is receiving it and speaks to us, if not the Holy Father himself? And after Scalfari he has made certain shoot, How come, the relevant information organ of the Holy See, do not deny?

«[…] And then the charisma is not preserved in a bottle of distilled water! Faithful to the charism does not mean "pietrificarlo", is the devil that "petrifies", do not forget! Faithful to the charism does not mean writing on parchment and put it in a picture. The reference to the legacy that has left Don Giussani can not be reduced to a museum of memories, of decisions, rules of conduct. Certainly it involves fidelity to tradition, but fidelity to tradition - said Mahler - "means keeping alive the fire and not worshiping the ashes". Don Giussani will never forgive you lost your freedom and you trasformaste in museum guides or worshipers of ash. Keep the fire burning the memory of that first meeting and be free!

It is not evil, he is alone … natura et gratia

I do not like talking about myself, my past nor my present private. I'm not a subject to be selfies published at every turn the pages whatsapp e Facebook, because the suitable place where "I manifesto" in public is from the pulpit of the church, where he is proclaimed and preached the Holy Gospel. And when I have to talk about myself, I must make a great effort, sometimes a real sacrifice, especially when it comes to telling at all edifying episodes of my past life.

Although I never had any connection neither training nor of belonging to 'The Work of God, which I very much appreciate the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, We respect this as the only truly Catholic institution in the disastrous panorama of ecclesiastical universities [cf. WHO], at the time she hits a very succinct answer given by the Holy Founder of, Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer - who also said bad words like me -, that to a young priest who is considered worthy to rise to certain ecclesiastical offices, He answered: "Remember that you became a priest to celebrate the Eucharistic Sacrifice, to administer the Sacraments of Confession and Grace relevant to your degree, to serve and build up the People of God. Because of this, did you become a priest ".

These words touched me deeply and that both shared, I who in the Church I have never aspired to anything, especially being aware that for certain roles - always left to others with deep joy -, I would by the grace of God qualities and skills that those who practice them so mediocre, They do not even distantly; and not have them either by the grace of God, nor for those gifts of nature, however, also related to the principle of natura et gratia [cf. Mt 25, 14-30].

The first lesson holy that I did since the beginning of formation for the priesthood, It derived from the manifest desires and high career aspirations nourished by a bishop. The lesson I drew was as follows: If the devil can take ambition, we can do anything he wants, first taking away the freedom of God's children, because then every sigh, action, human relationship and so on, It will be conditioned and aimed only to their wild ambitions. that bishop, it was an ambitious pathological, He never understood for giving me, through this his serious flaw, and saving the most valuable lesson of my future priestly life. It is sadly certain that one day he, received the Holy Sacrament of the Sick and Holy Viaticum, before expiring pronounce these last words: "Man, because that such and such and such other jerk were made cardinals, whereas I do not?”. E, said this, make up the ghost, and I will pray a lot for him, because I loved both the, while he spent his life to be surrounded by fawning pimps, keeping a great distance from those who affection and genuine reverence they would have told the truth, but most would never have betrayed, even if he has betrayed himself.

In the exercise of my sacred ministry, some times I have to take myself as an example, but it is clear: as an example almost always be negative. It so happened that during some homilies, addressing certain topical issues, strictly related to the words of the Holy Gospel proclaimed just before, He has reminded that they bring certain debauchery of life they place us as the Ferrari on the race track much of that mortal sin that I have traveled at full speed. Here then again, in the secrecy of the inner hole, during sacramental Confession, some young boy or girl who explained to me that it was' an important period of cohabitation test, before taking a major step like marriage ', in reply that that choice was the wrong path, I explained: "I do not think I do not know what you're talking about, because I'm not a priest came to eleven years in the seminary. Certain experiences took place before you, but above all more and worse than you. So I can explain on my own skin that a de-empowering wedding parody, It is pointless, for these reasons …".

Not to mention how severely I have dealt certain Mamas Catholic engaged, of those who tear their clothes on around the network The joy of love, or sacrilegious danger of Holy Communion for divorced and remarried, but at the same time they are justifying their son or their daughter who lives with his companion or the companion, because then it comes to "living together for good", or because "any time soon marry '. At this army holy mommies, to avoid that someone could reply "who knows, her priest, of certain realities?”, without going for the subtle I answered: "My mother, which it is really Catholic, when I was doing the pimp, or when in times of "seriousness" I was a partner jumping from one partner, he never allowed me to visit her together with some of my occasional ganze. And once, very sternly, mi said: "When you're married, then you can bring your wife, but your love I do not want to see or meet in my house ' ". I remained so bad and I felt offended at this point, who did not want to see and feel my mother for several years. But my mother, that a Christian conscience have it for real, as I had my late father, He never accepted my debauchery, rather than lose his son. Dissoluteness instead, rather than lose their children, They are accepted by the army of holy mommies which then vent from one blog thundering against "concubines" and "adulterers", to which the "infamous" The joy of love He would open the doors to the Most Holy Eucharistic Communion. What in any case is not true, as we have already explained our Fathers de The Island of Patmos [see WHO e WHO]. These people are going crazy for the electronic network, They are in large numbers mostly frustrated women, if we go to investigate, we find that they have sons and daughters living together peacefully and husbands who made merry more or less in the light of the sun with the young office secretary. Here then by reaction, after having thundered against "adultery" and "concubines", begin to tie "heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they don't want to move them even with a finger " [cf. Mt 23,4]. And while imposing "burdens on people's shoulders", They do not care about the fact that their daughters not even limited to making life partners in "civil unions", but they live and behave like real whores. Of course, none of those who read on the internet some invective against "adultery" and "concubines" written by this race of people, You can see the exploits of their daughters and sons, maybe even why, to see the work of some offspring always so strict and zealous Catholics on the skin of other people's children, rather than on the sites of Vera&Temple Apostolic Tradition We should go on porn sites. And if anyone wants to see the real riot of remarried divorcees, di Cheese unlike married that no one calls in certain cases "adultery" and "concubines" but "precious benefactors of our protection work of the true faith and the true teaching ', enough that you facing in certain environments and improperly called the so-called Vera&Temple Apostolic Tradition, including Lefebvre, given that the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X have never puzzati the money of those many "adultery" and "concubines" who have real or imagined-quarters of the old nobility and that melt like snow in the sun, together with their wallets, before to aromatic smoke of incense and magic of the Latins. If anything, introducing himself to the solemn liturgy Old Catholic Churches, seventy substantially exceeded, with their "nurse" that does not resemble at all to how bad talentata Tina Pica [cf. WHO], but which seem to climb out of an erotic film. Or come to the so-called "mass always" with their lovable twenty-five year-old granddaughter, just arrived fresh and beautiful from Kiev. That and much more speaks volumes that the Pharisees were less hypocritical of heretic and schismatic Bishop Bernard Fellay, the one who very filial corrects the Supreme Pontiff, but it is careful not to correct many of the benefactors of his fraternity, and especially those many generous and Brazilian and North American members of the ultra right, who collect divorces with the ease with which a collector collects stamps. But on the other hand, I also said the Emperor Vespasian when he was facing reprimand for having put the fee sull'orina: «Money, non're » [money does not stink, cf. WHO].

But back to me and to my debauchery to arrive later to the heart of an entirely different matter ... only twenty years after the death of my father, when I was already a priest, I was told that my father, died just 56 year old, He prayed and offered him during his illness his sufferings for their return to the faith of his son, that refused to even walk past a church for ten years. But wanting, the suo time, I did worse: I said that even on the baptismal registry - the one where he is now annotated my priestly ordination -, it was noted that I did not belong to the Catholic Church.

Not that seeks to justify that my gesture villain, But it is worth pointing out that he was a juvenile reaction completely wrong - but always a reaction -, to the truly devastating priestly figures that I had known and with whom I had to do on several occasions, form me up to the idea that the Catholic clergy there were only a few mele marce, but it was getting hard to find a single healthy apple. And all this generated in me particular pain and discomfort, because as a child, then as a teenager, I had had from God the grace and privilege of coming into contact with truly holy priests, I mention all of them a particularly well-known to the great Catholic public: Father Divo Barsotti.

I know so well what it means, and how young people in particular can run forever from the Church, when instead of priestly virtue models, They are presented to them before certain alleged sculettanti Priests entered the College of the wickedness of those bishops who in the late seventies and early eighties found themselves with deserts seminars, to the point that often fill them queers and checchine, dive e divine

Of all this and worse ancòra, But the fault is not of the reigning Pontiff, who started his pontificate, even after four decades of devastating choices made by its Supreme Predecessors, or by those to whom they have entrusted, or of which they trusted, while on one hand the priests competed in every piece of crap, to the point that often, most were pigs, Most were career under different pontificates now much regretted by those who have given life to a mythical past history embalmed, but in truth it never existed. And while our clergy became increasingly morally impossible, the document in the document do not hesitate to get shots of morality in the bedrooms of our faithful with sling goldsmith, to measure the deeds and misdeeds. And these are not my opinions ungenerous, least of all "subversive opinions" against the Catholic morality and who know that I myself practice; the one just described is the history of the Church over the last forty years, a story written and documented act of act, Official speech of official speech, many of which reminds us of that terrible warning: "They tie up heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they don't want to move them even with a finger " [cf. Mt 23,4].

If several times the grace of God has used me to resume and bring him several of these traumatized and driven from feats of certain priests, maybe it's because, for life experience, I could understand fully what they saw and what they felt, a result which had developed reactive rejection against the Catholic Church and especially its clergy plunged to historic lows moral. And while the moral situation of the clergy was now precipitated, Holy Church of God ruled by the Holy Father Giovanni Paolo II was committed to reiterate its categorical "no condoms", but at the same time ordering a homosexual priest after another, up to allow the development of a real epidemic frocismo clerical, Finally paid in the United States with the diocese into bankruptcy because of subissate judgments of damages to victims of harassment, or until the collapse of the Church of Ireland deluged with scandals truly unspeakable sexual. It was above all from this point of view that the Venerable Pope Benedict XVI faced a moral crisis of the clergy of proportions at times frightening, while the reigning Pope has inherited all the after-effects of a situation of total collapse, It is now come to be missing for a long time the trusted collaborators, faithful and capable, essential to keep up a good reign and to make this really.

Often, talking to people re-converted to Catholicism, I said and explained that the experience of the Blessed Apostolo Paolo or of Blessed Vescovo Agostino, are not, as it is often thought and is believed, of isolated cases, unique and exceptional. Far from it: I am a paradigm. For this reason I have narrated these lines between the synthesis of my personal story and my subsequent radical change of life; I did it to show that this corresponds to the dynamics of the shock of the Blessed Apostolo Paolo on the Road to Damascus, or the conversion of the Blessed Vescovo Agostino, behind which there were the prayers of his mother St. Monica, that behind many of our conversions or re-conversions there were many holy mothers Monica. And as Saul of Tarsus was called Paul, and Aurelio Thagaste to Augustine, with the baptism that I am called by my parents Stefano Maria, before my ordination I asked to be able to call Ariel, what does it mean Lion of God, having considered - if I'm not wrong in analysis and interpretation of the signs of the Holy Spirit -, that to me, Father gave, just he wanted what was imprinted in the name I assumed before the sacred ordination. In the economy of salvation, There is in fact the painstaking monaco that is silent, and the lion roaring. A me, He would have liked the seclusion of the Charterhouse and withdrawal from the world in silence and total concealment, but I wished I, God did not want him; and a choice of selfish pleasure, You can never be called a vocation. It can not silence those who in fact is called to roar, He can not roar who is called to be quiet.

The key word in all this talk, I repeat is the word 'coherence'. Or as I wrote earlier: if a person has not been and is not at consistently in their own sinful choices, riafferrata will never be recovered and the grace of God and then be consistent in faith.

The converted or re-converted, never hesitate, without discomfort, to bring himself as an example, launching without any shame, to the many light and superficial Catholics, This clear message: «Dear son, but if I did I who I was in his time a citizen of Sodom and Gomorrah honorary, not make you want?».

This also involves another aspect: the ability to admit, to declare and publicly reiterate a radical change of views. Because a conversion or re-conversion, this also involves: a radically different way of thinking and to face reality and life itself. In fact, if I were a bishop - it is an example of purely academic, of course -, cost of closing of parishes for lack of priests, I would look good from consecrating Priests in the Holy Order of the subjects that after years of seminary, changed only the exterior surface appearance, these were and what were. Who in fact she reaches the Priesthood remaining as such, He can not get through the Sacrament of a new character that turns and forms for life. That's why no one is ever occurred to you to appoint the rector of a seminary or of electing a bishop's seat. And they were right not to do it, because I do not fill the Church of garbage, I empty the Church by trash. And a rector empty-seminar or a bishop-garbage man nobody cares, even the Church "revolutionary" of Francis I. And that being said I want to be clear that with these words I do not self-nominated, who knows me knows that is not so.

Unfortunately in today's Catholicism hath been threatened by another parallel time religion: the whoredom. Of this whoredom, a level of information, paradigm is something that magazine on-line the indomitable and diehard politicians de The New Compass Daily, which we could be defined as a real magazine vetero Democrat.

Changing times, people and situations, but some subjects are always there, with them bishops reference working to ooze poison behind the scenes, to act as if we were always in 'italietta Democrat fifties, where to be hired as a janitor in a public school was decisive letter of recommendation from the parish priest, to be hired as a clerk in a city municipality office, that of the Bishop. And when they approached the elections, not a few bishops summoned all the clergy not to the necessary training courses, or to instruct them on how best to build the People of God, but to turn them into election propagandists. And for weeks, from church pulpits, instead of the explanations to the Holy Gospel, They were heard verbose election rallies. there, i bishops reference of the Director of The New Compass Daily, still dream of this, which is to say: like dreaming the calessino driven by donkey while the missiles flying toward the Moon.

Before the charges of my whoredom facing The New Compass Daily, not just as a reaction to the outrage, even because, in the words of one of their vescovetto politician far reference when we had to defend Silvio Berlusconi and his brothels in the open: "The outrage is not a Christian sentiment". So it's not that reacts with indignation, but with the truth, which it is always objective, never subjective, because the subjective truth is not the truth, but it is their opinion, which as such always leaves things as they are.

As of March 2013 following, The New Daily Compass it is more papist amply Pope. Making a sigh on Pope Francis I would have been unthinkable. Several signatures who attempted a veiled criticism and delicate expression on the pastoral style of the reigning Pontiff, They felt respond by the provincial secretary of the Christian Democrats failed, ie Riccardo Cascioli, that "The editorial policy does not allow any expression also indirectly critical of this pontificate". And it is clear: the living witnesses, kicking and equipped in such a sense of good memory, there is no shortage at all, in case the applicant intends to protest, but above all to deny.

At the time,, his The New Compass every day He wrote the sociologist Massimo Introvigne, which incidentally is an excellent specialist in the sociology of religion, and founder of the worthy CESNUR [cf. WHO, WHO]. Each article in which he extolled the wonders of this pontificate, Massimo Introvigne was attacked by all the Catholic fronds that showed concern for pastoral certain styles of Pope Francis I. There were even blog they created dedicated pages of teasing more or less headed 'daily introvignata », and on to follow.

You can then ask the penalty: What happened to this well-deserving magazine, legitimately criticizing today Future, The Osservatore Romano, the closest collaborators of the Pope, but above all the pastoral decisions of the Supreme Pontiff? Which, the central nucleus of "conversion" which has led to such a radical change, but above all to discover that critical sense in which between 2013 and the 2014, The New Compass Daily, defenestrò several employees as deemed insufficiently papist, or as we would say today Bergogliani ? How could it happen that the director of The New Compass Daily, yesterday as recommended today behind the scenes by the same bishop - namely that between a phone and the other on Eurostar He hoped that the reigning Pontiff soon reach the Father's house, then pumping below, always behind the scenes, several signatories Correction filial -, went to meet this metamorphosis? Why indeed compared, the Methamorphosis Ovid, They are likely to be just a joke, together with Praise of Folly Erasmus of Rotterdam.

Let us see what happened to induce the then ultra-papist New Daily Compass to discover suddenly that even a Supreme Pontiff, if necessary can be criticized, with all the good grace of the case and provided it does not put in question his legitimate authority. It happened this: In the 2015 the Supreme Pontiff Francis I, He has awarded two sound and well-deserved slap in the movement Communion and Liberation, through a very strong and very severe speech that invite you to read everything in full, because then you will understand the origin of the sudden "conversion" to the freedom of the children of God de The New Compass Daily and its director [cf. see text WHO].

After the papal speech occurred before a conversion, then a transformation. E, suddenly, we have witnessed the metamorphosis that today we have before: the publication of correction filial passed for pure duty of chronicle, to the next article by Antonio Livi it ​​was like a new mail patch on an old dress [cf. Mt 9, 14-17], as well as both offensive to the intelligence of the man who wrote it is the intelligence of those who, and in species canonists and theologians, they read. To follow up with attacks targeting to Andrea Tornielli, guilty of being papist and so-called Bergogliano.

I state that I am a friend for many years by Andrea Tornielli, as are Antonio Socci and Marco Tosatti. It is three different people, with a dissimilar approach to what is referred to as the journalistically Bergoglio phenomenon.

Andrea Tornielli is a person who by his character and professional style moves cautiously, and in him I never had heard the approach based on opportunism turncoats that often is challenged by those that Gabbana have turned to the right and upside down, but not only, because after you have turned and turned, they even dyed with different colors, as did Riccardo Cascioli to the direction of The New Compass Daily.

Antonio Socci It is a Christian Fire, a passionario and in many respects a man of God went through trials and suffering do not wish on anyone, in which not only he kept his faith, but he strengthened, giving an example in this sense certainly not insignificant. His position in respect of this pontificate is very critical, and is its legitimate right to be critical, criticizing the hard way, sometimes ruthless, certain choices of the Pope, without ever having been disrespectful to his Augusta person and without ever questioning his authority.

Marco Tosatti It is a great lord in delicacy and expressive spirit, he is puzzled before certain pastoral decisions of the Supreme Pontiff, but his style is different and everything marked in the manner of an "old" gentleman of journalism.

All three of these professionals, in their diversity, They are characterized by an element: are men of faith, husbands and fathers specimens, models of Christian family life, People who really love the Church and even the papacy.

I can estimate and have relationships with animated people from totally opposite feelings, relative to the present ecclesial and ecclesiastical situation, that as I have often written is in a state of decay and crisis without historical precedent. But I can not feed esteem for the obvious turncoats banner of "nothing happened ”; who do not find something better to do that explicitly or implicitly give the turncoats to Andrea Tornielli, who runs an information server, Vatican Insider, that makes no opinion or analysis, But as news and comments, when it does not just give you news and just.

The latest attack in order of series addressed to Andrea Tornielli in those days was a real falsification. An editorialist The Corriere della Sera, Gian Antonio Stella, which it is a great journalist but not an expert in church and ecclesiastical matters, supportandosi just for this on an article written by Andrea Tornielli last year, He wrote exact words:

.

«[…] The Catholic fundamentalists who days ago, the anniversary of the Battle of Lepanto, they said the rosary against immigrants, in particular Islamic (including Syrians fleeing by the ferocity of Assad and cutthroats Isis), pretend to ignore that "their" Papa never let go of certain principles. First: the Christian duty BUSINESS. May. He remembered a year ago the Vatican correspondent Andrea Tornielli in a piece titled "Immigrants, as well as Poland "buries" Giovanni Paolo II " [A text. Tornielli 10.15.2016, WHO, text G.A. Star 10.10.2017, WHO].

.

The reaction falsante de The New Compass Daily was an article so titled: "Because the power defames the Poles helped by certain Catholics". Article in which, starting with the title same, Andrea Tornielli has slipped into a cauldron of accusations, without ever he has mocked the Polish Catholics, in the Christian celebration of the victory over the Moslems at Lepanto 7 October 1571, They have organized the recitation of the Holy Rosary on the Polish territory boundaries, with the participation of about one million faithful [text B. Frigerio of 12.10.2017, WHO].

Now you understand well that the lines and behind the lines of The New Compass Daily, that ultra-papist that was between 2013 and the 2014, It has become critical-sour day after the reigning Pontiff has given up two healthy sganascioni to Communion and Liberation, It is not that it did not happen exactly nothing, but it happened very, species in inconsistency and consequent arrogance towards other professionals of journalism. for no one, slab column The New Compass Daily that bestows implied or express licenses of turncoats in right and left, ever he told: "We changed my mind". What not only legitimate, because as I think I have explained in my skin and in my own life of past debauchery and deadly sins, The change view is what often saving, sometimes essential for a true journey of faith. In fact, if I myself had not radically changed opinion at the time, Today I would be a different kind of man, but above all I would not be a priest of Christ.

Therefore I say in all serenity that the slap given by the Supreme Pontiff to Communion and Liberation, in addition to being entirely deserved, has helped more mice come into the open, from Riccardo Cascioli that makes fleas to other colleagues annotating them with great fall of professional style as the snipers, ie snipers. Now, I do not know if the director of The New Compass Daily he did as the undersigned military service, or if it was reformed to visiting lever, or if it is declared pacifist and did alternative civilian service passing the time playing with videogames, in any case it is not necessary to have studied The Art of War to know that sniper, the sniper, especially after the bloody war in the former Yugoslavia, It has become synonym for coward. The snipers on the buildings of Sarajevo, shooting at unarmed civilians, including women and children, often deliberately hitting behind, and they were usually padded euphoric drugs; and when the euphoria passed, They became even worse and more bloody.

Here are described mice that the Pope Francis I did come out with two slaps. It is opportunistic and inconsistent mice, of low alloy politicians who represent the paradigm of mice of a religion entirely new and much worse than that Protestantism brought to life by a schism and a heresy born from the Christian core work of Martin Lutero. And this new religion, that is not born precisely from any Christian nucleus, It is the whoredom.

It is to these people that our Lord Jesus Christ says: "The prostitutes will precede the kingdom of heaven" [cf. Mt 21, 38-32]. What this Riccardo Cascioli should have explained in great detail his bishop of reference, what, If the Pope Francis I had been made a cardinal, He would have incinerated at the stake anyone who had longed for this pontificate, instead wish the reigning Pontiff soon to pull the bucket talking on the phone in the crowd from the first class of a Eurostar.

And if these are all mice today madness that the Pope Francis I did jump out from behind those scenes where for decades have worked to damage the Church, well I tell you: even though I have been and am critical of many pastoral choices of the Holy Father - as demonstrated irrefutably many of my writings -, for just about to have littered the papal rodenticide, I would be ready to shout, already while it is still alive ... saint now!

Last note is style is of a professional nature: our online magazine The Island of Patmos It reached in these days of October the twelve million visits. Our work, it's all free, however it involves high management costs, as is the case when working with means, instruments, programs, server-provider business and so on. Always and now we have entrusted to the providential and free charity of Readers, that until now have supported us, first of all in our full and complete freedom. But when you have certain sponsor or certain patrons, You always end up on the unfortunate pay book whose, in the end, reaches amounts what to say and what not to say.

At the New Daily Compass today by the snipers to the others, we want to give this lesson in style and especially of Christian freedom, I saw the way he turned as if nothing had gabbana, after the first two slaps data from the Supreme Pontiff, a righteous and holy about, Movement of Communion and Liberation.

It is not by chance that - it's just a question -, have imposed a change of editorial line their lenders?

The emperor Vespasian, stating Pecunia non olet, he was wrong, because the money, in truth, always stink, when you buy your freedom and when will make your Christian conscience in the same way a rubber band that drives an accordion portfolio.

the Pope Francis I and the then Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller during a session of the last Synod on the family

louis badilla, his The Seismograph the 27 September, demonstrating lack of theological education and ignorance of the history of theology, It insulted so brazen Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller for his wise and timely proposal to establish a commission of cardinals that would clarify, by frank and fraternal discussion, cum Petro e sub Petro, the well known and reported unclear points love joy [cf. The Seismograph, WHO].

..

In this proposal, the prefect emeritus of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, is not contained nothing "crazy", as he stated Badilla, nor is no question of suspecting the orthodoxy of the Supreme Pontiff, much less to "correct" the Holy Father Francis I from this angle, something unthinkable for a Catholic. Chi intended ciò, not make a the establishment of "filial", but one presumptuous, wrong and unnatural correction.

.

It is not allowed to advance in principle, or show any objections or reservations motivated the correctness or pastoral prudence of a papal document, what is the 'love joy, which contains precisely pastoral directives, that can move as it provided by a previous Pope and can in turn be mutate by a later Pope or the Pope himself later of his pontificate, as they do not bring into play the inviolable and immutable divine or natural law, but simply the power jurisdictional - the power of the keys - the Roman Pontiff, which of course it can not happen for doctrinal or dogmatic documents, moral or speculative, infallible expressions of immutable truth.

.

This would be instead of clarifying and highlight how The joy of love Suppose and confirm, at least implicitly, the Church's teaching on:

.

  1. the indissolubility of marriage and therefore the objective gravity of the sin of adultery;
  2. the different levels of the divine law authorities, the ecclesiastical law and the natural;
  3. the value and the fallibility of conscience;
  4. the need to be in the grace to be able to communion;
  5. the difference between the state and irregular state of sin and therefore the possibility of being in grace while being in an irregular state, possibilities based on the difference between trend to sin (craving) e act of sin ;
  6. God can save without the sacraments;
  7. the subjective conditions for the attenuation of the blame;
  8. the prohibition or negative precept, or "do not do evil" always obliging and absolutely [always and always, intrinsically evil]; the command or positive precept "is 'good' always obliges [but not for always, ever, good extrinsically], but admits the pantry or except in special cases (casuistry), in which it is necessary to obey a higher law. Some cases are reserved to the law, others are left to the prudence agent.

.

It would also discuss the pastoral setting The joy of love that seems, for fear of rigor and stiffness, marked by a certain easy permissiveness e overindulgence and have little incentive to repentance, to perfection and holiness with regard to the conduct and the legal status of irregular couples. It seems little to stimulate correct, to tire, and to strive to make sacrifices to achieve the ideal.

.

Since no one can demand more than they can do, and it should be noted that progress takes place in stages and gradually and we must forgive seventy times seven. Ma what you can do is to be done, otherwise there is no excuse, nor can you claim to be compassionati. Ma, in order to understand the current situation, with its problems and its prospects, we see briefly how we arrived at this point.

.

The joy of love no way constitutes an unprecedented case. It is as a whole an enormous complexity and richness document, it's a sum of christian marriage, result of the work of two world synods of bishops under the presidency of the Roman Pontiff. Because of this, it constitutes a step forward under the pastoral profile, with respect to the Family member company of the Holy Pontiff John Paul II, more attentive to the principles, but mainly due to another kind of society, and placed in a global context in frenetic evolution, either for good or evil. Of course, we expected the answer to several major issues, but there is no denying especially the widespread expectation of the Pope's words about the issue, all things considered marginal, but deeply felt, permission or not of the Communion for divorced and remarried.

.

Saint John Paul II, to n. 84 from the Family member company It does not allow divorced and remarried to receive Communion, unless they live like brother and sister. Now, For several years some moralists wondered whether this discipline could not be mitigated or enlarged, so as to allow, at least in some special cases, access of divorced and remarried to receive Communion.

.

The publication of love joy She was waiting with great interest by all those who were waiting by the Pope an authoritative answer on this sensitive and difficult issue. Some were expecting a confirmation of the rule of St. Giovanni Paolo II, which reflects an ancient tradition; others instead, aware that this matter is governed by the judicial power of the Pope, hoped he would grant the permission of the Communion for divorced and remarried.

.

The Pope has not stopped rather clear on this issue - hard to know for what reason - simply to make passing reference to it only in the now-famous note 351, which says, in the form entirely hypothetical, that 'in some cases' Communion 'could' be granted to divorced and remarried, but without specifying in which of these cases.

.

A similar pronouncement It does not have the character of a law, both because it expressed in the conditional - while a law is formulated in the indicative or imperative -; both why, a law linked to some cases, for having the force of law should specify what these cases, not remain mere hypothesis instead. Moreover, the note 351 but it expresses a 'possibility', but not in the sense that it is now possible and then allowed and permissible give Communion to remarried divorcees, ma, It is formulated in the conditional, expresses a law can but not present at the time this. How to say that, if the Pope will, in the future, may grant permission. But as long as this will not happen, It remains in force the norm of St. Giovanni Paolo II. Or as expressed by treating the issue from another angle the Father Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo: "You can not ask, to the Supreme Pontiff, to withdraw what he, de facto, he never admitted and then given " [cf. WHO].

.

Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio, canonist of the Holy Office of higher authority, has recently proposed that cases, in reference to the prior 351, they might, in his opinion, be formalized, with the consent of the Pope, in the case where the content - at present only hypothetical - debated the note in question, It was eventually changed and elevated by the Pope to the force of law. But this, as we repeat, at the moment it has not happened yet. Therefore no one, as the old proverb says, It can reasonably claim that you run to the emergency room to bind a head when in fact, at the moment, this head has not yet split.

.

With regard to the note Letter sent to the Pope by the bishops of the region of Buenos Aires last year, it says, with reference to the prior 351, that 'love joy It opens the possibility of access to the sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist ". It is also known the Pope's response: "The script is very good and clearly explains the sense of Chapter VIII. There are other interpretations " [cf. WHO].

.

The trouble is that the words of the Argentine bishops are not unanimously and can lend both directions, despite the favorable judgment of the Pope but, Consequently, It expresses this misconception he also. So that, it is not clear what they intend to say the bishops, it is therefore not clear if the Pope has understood them and what they mean, although he praised them for having clearly expressed. They play rather unfortunately incorrectly - we want to think in good faith - the term 'possibility'. And once this is done, They have attempted to confer a letter rank of Own motion popes.

.

It is one thing if the Argentine Bishops intend to say that the note 351 hints at a "possible" law - and this is the correct interpretation of Note, as we have seen -; Another account is to interpret the note as if it declares the possibility, ie the granting or permission or admissibility, Now and immediately, Communion for divorced rested.

.

For this one reply the Pope does not count, not for the form - it would not be the first time that a Pope interprets one of his documents by writing to some bishops -, but for the ambiguous content of the Pope should clarify, if it wants to be obeyed. It can not be obeying a higher, while wanting, if first you do not understand what you mean, or invite command to execute or implement.

.

The framers of correction filial cite some passages of 'love joy to obtain heretical propositions, about which it is not clear whether they intend to consider them attributable to the Pope, or if it comes to heresies that can be derived from the text of the 'love joy. Of course: I do not intend to settle this matter, especially after the Father Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo, on the pillars of our Patmos Island, trial was put to roar like a lion running for hunting forest of zebras and gazelles to tear, Then festive hopping around safely shreds of having profited thereby plenary indulgence. So I limit myself only, for my part, to point out that in any case it is not permissible to accuse the Supreme Pontiff of heresy in an official document of his magisterium, as it is precisely the Apostolic Exhortation joyful love.

.

If the accusation of heresy to the Roman Pontiff is unacceptable [cf. WHO, WHO, WHO] is however permissible to argue that some of the documents cited by the signatories of the steps correction filial in support of their allegations, actually appear spoiled by setting misericordista, but it originates not from a fact, but from a misunderstanding of certain words of the Holy Father John XXIII in the famous opening speech of Vatican II "Mother Church rejoices», when the Holy Pontiff once said that "today the Church prefers to make use of mercy rather than that of severity". but be careful: He said, "he prefers", He never claimed to have totally abandoned or which is totally excluding the use of severity. And despite the clarity of that speech, Unfortunately, by the Council times to today we hath spread in the Church a pastoral practice was subsequently codified and solidified doctrinally, with exegetical claims, morals, anthropological and theological, boasting and promotes the practice of pure mercy, without any recourse to threats, coercive or repressive measures, use of force, criminal sanctions, prohibitions, the condemnations and excommunications.

.

In the exegetical field they are taken from Scripture steps related to the severe God, threatening, belligerent and punisher, who sends to hell, leaving only, with the pretext of the Incarnation, the image of the merciful God, compassionate, merciful, mite, dolce, forgiving, patient, tolerant and understanding, up to be weak, changing, suffering and death. They're back as the ancient heresies of Marcionism, the teopaschismo and dell'apocatastasi Origenist. It is the misericordismo.

.

In the moral field, ethics has lost its absoluteness, firmness, austerity and severity; It has become flexible, changing, optional, comfortable, possibilist, compliant, lax, malleable, enjoyable, allegra, relaxed, permissive, instinctive, libertarian. He was born the liberal spontaneity and hedonistic. We should not exclude anyone, but we must accommodate all. You should not edit any, but only dialogue. We must not make war, but only love, how's wit pacifism. Human conduct is progressing and is continually improving and necessarily in history, how's wit progressivism.

.

In the field of anthropology he began to conceive of man as essentially good, innocent and oriented to God, of right intention, good faith and good will. Sin is not a fault to be corrected, punish and atone, but it is a weakness to be pitied. No original sin with criminal consequences in life. Suffering is natural, but it makes no sense and is simply fought. Evil is only suffering, no sin. It is doing good.

.

Between faults and virtues, L 'love joy It is clearly guided by a pastoral method misericordista. It is not infected with doctrinal errors, but from a practical error, pastorally defect: the underestimation of the state of irregular pairs gravity. The sin of adultery is too apologized and not enough rebuked. It seeks to reassure the divorced and remarried to be in the grace of God without telling them what to do to be in God's grace. Families formed adultery are not only families "wounds", but also feritrici and scandalous.

.

The intent of the method of The joy of love It is not to despise or discourage these pairs, to ensure that they are not marginalized. This is certainly a good intention, already expressed very deep and loving words from the Apostolic Exhortation post-synodal Family member company of the Holy Pontiff John Paul II. But the true mercy is not to minimize the misery in which is located the poor or the sinner, but it is the make him aware, albeit gently, the severity of the situation in which there is, precisely because the mercy is not afraid to recognize up at the bottom of the evils of the next, for it is God's power, and therefore also free from serious evils. And what greater evil of mortal sin? Because of this, the hesitancy of The joy of love on this point detrimental to its laudable aim of showing the couple the power of divine mercy and the Church.

.

This one gets the impression that the Holy Father Francis talk to people who have just needs to be "accompanied" and compassionate, not, however, also recalled, correct and, on occasion, warned and reprimanded. Okay welcome and integrate; but there are those who do not want to be accepted and integrated, at least under the conditions laid down by the Church. And if we are the conditions he wants, la Chiesa and forge. What good is it?

.

However in The joy of love, stating that the pair may be in grace [n.301] and that "it is possible that by an objective situation of sin - that is not subjectively guilty or that it is not so full - you can live in the grace of God" [n.305], Pope denies the prejudice that it, being in an irregular state, It would thereby be always in a state of mortal sin. And with this he sets the stage, from which it may derive the permissibility of Communion; and here it should be reiterated the conditional "could". Of course there must be those pairs which, on reasonable grounds and force majeure, They can not and therefore do not have to interrupt their relationship [n. 298].

.

The joy of love It contains within itself several points that could be discussed seramente, I mention a few:

.

– It is not true that "two logics run through the entire history of the Church: marginalize and replenish " [n. 296]. There is also the excommunication, which it is neither integration, excommunicated because he does not want, but it is not marginalization, because it serves to lead to repentance. It can not be in communion who rejects the conditions to be in communion. It may therefore not be integrated those who can not be integrated. It is false the choice between the welcome with open arms and the discriminatory exclusion: there is half the acceptance condition, to which the aspirant must undergo, if you want to belong to the Church, which it is the house of God and not the haggling in the temple. He can not participate in the wedding banquet those without a wedding garment.

– Define "expressions of intimacy" [n. 298] intercourse between divorced is a misleading euphemism, which does not seem at all cost, expected that they, after all, commit still objectively a grave sin, although they may have extenuating circumstances and not lose the grace and, if they fall into a mortal sin, can, pentendosi, recover the grace. But these things should say openly, although they are implicit in the text. It should be clear in explaining what is the dynamic, in their case, between sin and grace. You never spoken of mortal sin.

– It is rightly said that pastors must discern situations well. And then he adds laconically: "There are no simple recipes» [n. 298]. What does it mean? said so, it would seem that it denies the existence of absolute principles, valid in every case, regardless of the situations. It is true that the term "recipe" does that be ironic, to avoid legalism, Pharisaism, narrow-mindedness and pedantry. But it is unclear.

– It declares that the couple's marriage can be and must be a "generous response that you can offer to God" and as "gift that God himself is requesting" [n.303]. It is not excessive praise? So what about the regular and faithful couples? It is the same thing be regular or irregular? But then what is the point to be regular? Who makes you do? Would not it be enough to say that the union, although uneven and often the cause of scandal to the faithful, place the two devote themselves to good works and do penance, can keep grace? Given the dangers that run continuously sinning, This is already a considerable concession of divine mercy, without having to present them almost as models for legal spouses?

– "The confessional should not be a torture room, but a place of the Lord's favor " [n. 305]. There is also a third possibility: that the confessional is a place that feels the penitent to be able to communion must decisively reject sin, recognize it, do penance for, repair and repeat the good resolution not to sin again.

– The Pope says: "I understand those who prefer a more rigid pastoral, that does not give rise to any confusion " [n. 308]. It is not the stiffness, but the clarity, that does not give rise to confusion. Indeed stiffness, which it is a section of the petty minds, It is the one that favors the confusion, because it is not able to distinguish what is hard and what is the balance, the rigidity of the corpse by the firmness of the principles. The weakness on principles does not produce the ductility and elasticity of prudence, but the vane moved by the wind. Mercy is not make concessions on the principles, but raising the height of principles who is messed in the quicksand of uncertainty and squalor of poverty.

.

As for the method of discussion It might be inspired to famous theological discussions or negotiations of the past, such as the famous dispute Controversia, between Dominicans and Jesuits, in the presence of the Pope, between the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century, with the problem of the relationship between grace and free will. The rest, also in our case, it is not perhaps the relationship between grace and free will in marriage and in a relationship?

.

The Pope could set up a commission of cardinals double limited number - five or six on each side -, formed by members who have spontaneously, thereby making the debate freely and voluntarily. A commission could be formed by Cardinals obicienti, which they are advancing reserves and raise difficulties. It could be celebrated by Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke; while the other would be formed by the cardinal working out, supporters of the The joy of love, and it could be presided over by Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, with the task to clarify and reassure obicienti about their concerns and to give the portion of truth contained in their objections.

.

Obviously the Pope could intervene Authority anytime, either to determine or to correct, is to answer questions put to him, in a manner similar to what happens in the councils debates. The final outcome of the discussions, It should be presented at the end of the discussion to the final judgment of the Pope, which he puts an end to the discussion at its discretion, as it was done in the congregation Controversia. And this whole enterprise could be entrusted to the patronage of the Blessed Vergine Maria, Mother of the Family, and St. Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the church.

.

How far explained to reiterate that if Luis Badilla, who writes about the things Church and Vatican affairs, know the basics of the history of theology and tradition of its discussions, It would be spared the style bad fall to give the crowds at the prefect emeritus of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, "guilty", according to him, We have proposed nothing more than what it has always been within the Church, at least to the Catholic, to which we belong, with all due respect to this reporter that now illuminates us from Vatican Radio microphones from now The Seismograph
