The Synod Pantedesco hidden behind the Synod Panamazzonico: that old desire to give his wife the priests in a superb blind and visible Church does not want to learn from the mistakes of history and from others' mistakes

Don Ariel, I am a bishop in Brazil. A small diocese that maintains the true faith. I can not do anything else… But we will remain faithful to the end. Thank you for helping us this.
Sir Bishop,
I am very grateful for your message, I desire to augur all the grace of God for his precious episcopal ministry.

Dear Father Ariel,
what regrets? At this point, after 6 years have pulled down all the important things and wants priestly celibacy does not face the same fate? After being defined “a gift for the Church” by the one who calls “vescovo di Roma” It is certainly intended to be undermined. Officially, the principles are solemnly affirmed, subverted in practice. Do not use the atomic bomb, just a few moves: not kneel before the Eucharist and you do before men (Sudanese migrants or political) and you destroyed Christology.
Lodi Bonino or allows a Pannella praises straw monsignor? Ennobles abortion and homosexuality. Just a little note in a chapter of Letizia love and destroy the indissolubility of marriage.
Now I expect that someone claims that the area of the Holy Sepulcher was not see-supervised.
After the stunt of a cardinaletto It is a fool who pays the sevices.
Only two commandments have not touched: the 9th because most of them women they never desired, and the last because the real dictators aspire to power and fuck it the property of others.
I feel like Pinocchio in the country of donkeys …
I fear that the abolition of priestly celibacy is not really the only goal.
I have read dozens of books spawned by evil minds who spread doctrines new age and similar devilry. Compared to these texts, they hide their poison administering it very well hidden in the middle of scientific assertions and good ideas and sharable, I have the impression, from the little I've read the document, which in this case has not been made any effort to conceal the naturalistic-masonic matrix of a substantially anti-Christic thought.
I believe that the problems associated with the current “management” Human of the Church of Christ are punishable by merely Supernatural resolution. So these must be the weapons to be used to fight the battle against the forces of evil in the Church: Certainly the Rosary but, along with this, there is urgent need to promote Eucharistic Adoration. On your knees, come è giusto che sia. Do not feel the need to stay a while’ kneeling before Jesus in the Eucharist is evil in itself.
If we do not put on their knees before the Eucharist, before those who kneel?
Dear Father Ariel.
Praised be Jesus Christ.
I always read with great pleasure that you, ed i suoi collaboratori, scrivono. Then, I apologize for my Italian: 15 year absence from Italy does not give a good result in fluency.
I am a Catholic Byzantine priest, Work in Siberia (Russia), I am the parish priest of the Byzantine and Latin Catholic communities.
Allow me to two thoughts; I see no disaster if the priests are married, officially. Me and my wife went to Siberia, from St. Petersburg, because from there they fled religious. We, preti sposati, more often we go there, if not all religious they want to go. With all due respect, obviously.
I do not know, maybe it's not so bad? Even the apostles were married and managed to bring back the Church.
For example now, They come in Italy, Finally (Italy, quo vadis?, but it is a’ another matter), and I celebrate Holy Mass in Latin rite, that Byzantine. Yet they are, I repeat, married.
However, reverend father, receive my warmest thanks for his work on the internet.
I ask you to remember me in his prayers…
Some apostles were married, but left their families after the call of Christ.
But this one is sure?
Always praise!
Venerable Brother,
how to understand the speech is very complex, especially when we face issues of the Catholic Church of East and West, not surprisingly we, for the one and for the other, two different rights: the Roman Canon Law and Canon Law of the Eastern Churches. We also have two different rites, and so on …
On one thing we can agree, because it is a historical fact contained in the revelation: the Apostles, to follow Christ, not only they left their fishing nets, ie their businesses, but also their families. The apostles who were not married, They have never married. That's why we can say that celibacy, which it is not a dogma of faith but an ecclesiastical discipline, however it sinks its roots in the first apostolic times.
You know also very well, for your ministry and to have lived in certain regions of the world, that the discussion would be very complex at the level above the historical, indeed, the small part, always very minority, of married Catholic priests we, They belong to ancient Churches – some of which also of apostolic foundation – that after the schism of 1054 They remained with the Church of the East. Then several of them asked him to return to communion with Rome, that recognized the privilege of having, in their own right and in their ritual, both celibate priests that married priests. And as always it happens among the Orthodox, married priests, however, could not rise to the episcopate.
All this was repeated in 2009 with the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI through the Apostolic Letter groups of Anglicans.
Anglicans, as by certain Catholic theologians are called clumsy “church”, together with the various Protestant denominations, also calls awkwardly “churches”, I am not at a church, after Luther, Zwingli and Calvin they started to rewrite the Sacraments, abolishing those which they say were political inventions of Catholicism. So they do not have the priesthood.
That the orders made in the Anglican Communion are not valid because they lack apostolic succession, it sanctioned the Supreme Pontiff Leo XIII.
Anyhow, as it happened in the past for several times, Benedict XVI, welcoming Anglicans into their communities had ranks of priests, first of all, It has provided that these receive an authentic and valid priestly ordination in the Catholic Church, then let it remain married men, granting them the sacred priestly order, vero e cattolico, as married men.
Quite different from the Anglican and Protestant communities the talk of the Orthodox Church.
The Orthodox are schismatics, and internally maintain many doctrinal errors, but they are a church and enjoy apostolic succession, therefore their priests are priests but schismatics, their schismatic bishops but priests, and their sacraments “illegal” but valid.
You will know also know that for centuries, married priests belonging to the Eastern Rite, They could not exercise the ministry in the territory of the diocese of the Latin Rite, all the wise avoid confusion among the People of God, ie the People of God that today we try to be confused in any way.
Like this, if married priests “Uniate”, Catholics of the current Ukraine, They were in territories and diocese of the Latin Rite, They could not celebrate Mass and administer the sacraments.
Today we are going to create the dress rehearsal married clergy, the first who welcomed in Perugia two Eastern Rite priests are married and have family it was the Cardinal Gualtiero Bassetti, Archbishop of Perugia, which is among other things the President of the Italian Episcopal Conference.
You and I both know you think about married clergy as a solution to the crisis of priestly vocations, It is really a lie knowing even to lie, because both the Orthodox, either all the various Christian denominations who have married ministers, have much more vocational crisis than we have now we Catholics held for stag.
And never mind the absurd speech that the married clergy would be a deterrent to the scourge of pedophilia, that has always invested a small minority of priests and very small, unless you face the really dirty game called pedophiles who are alone and nothing but gay, who they have sex with their young extensively post-pubertal, so it's no ordinary homosexuality and pedophilia.
If we go at large airports of civilized Germany, that very country that Italians do not lose opportunities to bestow civilization lessons, we will discover that it holds the world record of pedophile practitioners; We are going to see and discover in them not so much men single, but an army of pedophiles that are “good” fathers of families that start with flights charter to go for the weekend in Thailand-based boys and girls; and that you, which it is child abuse!
In short: I think – but my thinking leaving all the time that finds – that in this time of crisis and confusion, give birth to a married Catholic clergy, It could only add to the confusion and bewilderment of the faithful.
I implore the grace of the Lord upon you, your family and your sacred ministry.
