The meek is not a sheep but a lion, an eagle that has received the gift of the strength of the Holy Spirit

Homiletics of the Fathers of The Island of Patmos

THE MITE IS NOT A SHEEP BUT A LION, AN EAGLE THAT HAS RECEIVED THE GIFT OF THE FORTRESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

 

When we live the beatitudes we enter into the mastery of Jesus: we are men and women made in the image of the Son. Small Trinitarian images. This is the theological-anthropological nuance of the beatitudes. At the same time it makes us see the goal that all the children of God, we believers take it together as a community and as a Church.

Communion of Saints

A few years ago a beautiful film came out with the late Sean Connery: Discovering Forrester. It's the story of Jamal Wallace, a young black boy from the Bronx who befriends an elderly writer, William Forrester, who will be able to give many important lessons to Jamal, because he will be able to grasp gifts and potential in the boy. Jamal credits Forrester with a certain mastery. And also the great gift of knowing how to make the most of his abilities.

.

This story helps us introduce the Today's Holy Gospel in which Jesus, divine teacher, teaching the beatitudes, it allows us to become saints in a personal way and at the same time in a community way. In the Gospel passage, Jesus decides to climb a mountain. Exactly as Moses did when giving his great five speeches. He sits down and takes a master's position:

.

«Seeing the crowds, Jesus went up the mountain: He sat down and his disciples came to him. He started talking and taught them.".

.

Being seated on the mountain has an important meaning in the imagination of those who saw and observed this scene. Going up and sitting on the mountain is a sort of plastic representation of going up and sitting in the chair, in an important and solemn way, during which Jesus exposes the Great Charter of his teaching: the Beatitudes.

.

The manifesto of the life of every disciple, believer and apostle of Jesus, we live in the practice of virtue which then has the beatitudes as its goal. On one side, so, the introduction of the first verse is clear and important. Jesus sits down - from the throne, we would say today -, he takes the floor and teaches them by teaching. It makes the crowds participate in divine knowledge and explains the criteria on which God himself judges and acts. The Beatitudes are in fact God's gift to man and to the Church.

.

When we experience the beatitudes we enter into the mastery of Jesus: we are men and women made in the image of the Son. Small Trinitarian images. This is the theological-anthropological nuance of the beatitudes. At the same time it makes us see the goal that all the children of God, we believers take it together as a community and as a Church. Let us live the virtues and beatitudes as brothers. This is at the same time the theological-ecclesial nuance. Therefore Jesus lays out the plan for man and for the Church: the Great Charter of the beatitudes through which we can all become saints.

.

The beatitudes they tell something of a journey towards a path of perfection where we will all shine and be an image of God for other men. But let's try to comment on just one of the beatitudes, which I think is more to be rediscovered in this time: "Beati and miti, because they will inherit the earth". Obviously, the “myth”, it's not there rockstar, the footballer, the actor … not even a heroic and epic narrative. Here Jesus means the meek as one who does not behave in an annoying way, that does not attack, who knows how to love without invading freedom and taking the gifts of others, but above all without envying the gifts of others, giving substance to that terrible sin which is envy of the grace of others. The meek is the one who lives the virtue of fortitude and remains calm in distressing situations. Or to clarify: the meek is not a sheep but a lion, an eagle that has received the gift of the fortitude of the Holy Spirit which strengthens steadfastness of mind. Thus the myths, in their fortress, they will inherit the earth. Because the earth is the vital sign. It is the place where the Spirit penetrates to make the harvest fruitful. Therefore, inheriting the earth means having a soul capable of welcoming the Holy Spirit and doing great works of love and tenderness towards others..

.

In this time of great tensions and polarizations of ideas and opinions, where it is very easy to get into verbal confrontation, especially on social media which are swarming with anonymous keyboard lions, but also in real life, we ask the Lord precisely this: to rediscover meekness. Or as Chilo wrote, one of the seven Spartan sages:

.

«If I know strong, be gentle and peaceful, so that those around you have respect for you rather than fear".

.

We ask the Lord the grace of living the beatitudes in a time of great uncertainty, showing us rooted in His Love and becoming saints of our time, that is, small stars in the dark sky of our time, just as one of our greatest Italian poets wrote, Dante, Canto XXXIII in Paradise: «The love that moves the sun and the other stars».

The angelologist Marcello Stanzione again snatches Saint Hildegard of Bingen from the clutches of modern shamans

THE ANGELOLOGIST MARCELLO STANZIONE SNAPS SAINT HILDEGARD OF BINGEN AGAIN FROM THE CLUTCHES OF MODERN SHAMANS

 

Hildegard was an extraordinary and multifaceted figure. Over the course of her long life she has worked from philosophy to poetry to dramaturgy, from music to cosmology to healing herbalism. He had the gift of prophecy and clairvoyance, he carried out studies on the therapeutic properties of gems and stones …

the new book by Marcello Stanzione on Hildegard of Bingen (Il Cerchio editions, 2022). To access the book shop click on the image

The priest Marcello Stanzione, specialist in angelology, he is considered one of the leading European experts on Angels. His dissemination work has lasted for three decades and as the author of dozens of books translated into multiple languages, lecturer and television presence on Rai programmes, Mediaset e Sat2000, has always been very precious in these times in which man, when he decides to abandon the true path of faith and turn his back on God and the mystery of Redemption, far from emancipating himself, he always ends up believing in everything. At that point the Angels end up reduced to figures that can vary from tarot cards to new age, becoming elements that witches and ufologists abuse.

.

His attentions, his research and publications also focused on particular figures of male and female saints who had a close connection with the Angels. Among them Saint Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179), Benedictine nun beatified in 1324 and canonized in 2012 by the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI who proclaimed her a doctor of the Church. And here an aside between the lines is allowed: let's hope that after the recent Italian controversies regarding the declination of male names into female, where in the opinion of the Honorable Laura Boldrini the first female president of the Council of Ministers should not be called "Mr. Prime Minister" or "Prime Minister" but "President" and "Prime Minister", the same, or several of his friends within the disastrous contemporary Catholic world, do not also enter our house to argue and therefore to demand that Saint Hildegard or Saint Catherine of Siena be referred to from now on no longer as “doctors” but as "doctors of the Church".

.

That of Doamna Ildegarda, as the Benedictine nuns were called yesterday and as they still are today, he was an extraordinary and multifaceted figure. Over the course of her long life she has worked from philosophy to poetry to dramaturgy, from music to cosmology to healing herbalism. He had the gift of prophecy and clairvoyance, he carried out studies on the therapeutic properties of gems and stones.

.

Needless to say: the work of Marcello Stanzione, who has dedicated many publications to this figure [see WHO], it was particularly helpful, indeed truly indispensable to snatch this titan of a woman from the clutches of magicians, ufologists and followers of new age. Why not, even from those of some deranged priest, Unfortunately!

.

In his latest book, written together with Elisa Giorgio, the Author talks about the healing properties of herbs according to studies, Saint Hildegard's research and recipes. It goes without saying that herbs with healing properties have always been used in medicine and pharmacology. It is a well-known fact that the Holy Pontiff John Paul II, suffering from Parkinson's disease, was given papaya, which did not cure him of that illness, but it gave him good benefits.

.

Obviously you can't cure cancer neither with herbs nor with the so-called "alternative medicine" and that it is good to let yourself be treated by oncologists and scrupulously follow their therapeutic prescriptions, certainly not those of certain shamans, But, precisely in the field of oncology and the treatment of hopeless terminally ill patients, The use of natural substances in palliative programs for the treatment of pain is increasingly widespread, including substances commonly defined as “drugs”, but which in truth are nothing more than herbs, starting from what is usually called marijuana, which is nothing other than Indian hemp, one of whose properties is that it is a powerful and effective anti-inflammatory, equally beneficial are the therapeutic properties of coca leaves and poppy plants from which opium is obtained.

.

With this new book of his Marcello Stanzione offers and returns to readers the real and extraordinary figure of a woman who is a giant in faith, in science and in what today we would define as cutting-edge research.

The problem is not the bullshit of the priests but the lack of vigilance of the bishops who seem to want the honors but not the burdens of the episcopate

THE PROBLEM IS NOT THE SHIT OF PRIESTS BUT THE LACK OF SUPERVISION OF BISHOPS WHO SEEM TO WANT THE HONORES OF THE EPISCOPATE BUT NOT THE EXPENSES

Not a day goes by without some priest leaping into the limelight for feats ranging from Eucharistic sacrilege to the grotesque. All facts before which, take it out on the priest or on priests in general, that would be the easiest, forgetting that we priests are only the tip of theiceberg and that the fault lies entirely with our bishops.

the Brescian presbyter Giuseppe Fusari

Many bishops they are burdened with pastoral duties: meetings with the elders of the city, with politicians who with one hand offer funding for Catholic schools and the activities of the Diocese and with the other ten hands shut the mouth of the local Church on all the most sensitive issues that it would be his concern to deal with and bring to light. Their presence as religious authorities at the various official holidays is mandatory, at ribbon cutting and inauguration. Recently we even witnessed the case of a bishop who participated in the ribbon cutting on the occasion of the opening of the new headquarters of a Masonic Lodge [see articles WHO, WHO]. All in an incessant succession of «Excellence … Excellence … Excellence!». Title pronounced obsequiously by people so deeply rooted in the Catholic culture as to be convinced that the stoups of churches are bidet formerly made available by the charity of the Church to poor people who did not have running water at home, after which they remained there only because they are part of historical and artistic assets. And how well you understand, faced with this kind of mass of pastoral commitments, which to define burdensome is a small thing, the Blessed Apostle Paul, with all its tortuous journeys, including a shipwreck with a fortuitous landing in Malta, to then leave for Syracuse to reach Reggio and from there resume the journey to arrive months and months later in Rome, in comparison they are very little, rather: I'm really nothing [history in Acts of the Apostles: 27,1-28,16]. Or maybe you want to compare that joyful character of the Apostle of the Gentiles obsessed with the physical line, then from diets, that for this reason he didn't even eat every day, with our poor bishops forced to food gourmet prepared by the best chef on the occasion of official dinners together with the prefect, quaestor, district politicians and so on to follow? Those yes, which are penance. And let's not talk about their residences, inside which devoted nuns look after them, they serve them, li lavano e li stirano … because this is the charisma and vocation of certain religious: be waitresses. The work of some of our Bishops in what has been defined as a "field hospital Church" is certainly much more onerous than it was for the trench doctors of the First World War to treat wounded and dying soldiers. Then, to keep up with the times, among a triumph of iron pectoral crosses and pastoral staffs now forged by carpenters with pieces of raw wood, every time they take the chair they give their sermon on the poor and migrants, without it being of much interest to him that the world is always poorer in Christ and more and more faithful are emigrating outside the Catholic Church.

.

Also for these reasons many of our Bishops receive their priests after a long wait. Sometimes after demanding that a septuagenarian priest answer the questioning of a peevish lay secretary, if anything, even divorced and living with his partner, who peremptorily asks why the priest intended to bother His Most Reverend Excellency, so that he himself could evaluate whether to tell him to contact the Vicar General or the Episcopal Vicar. Perhaps this was what some destroyers of the ecclesial structure meant with their cry: «Make way for the laity in the Church?». If then the Bishop, having heard the invaluable favorable opinion of the lay secretary, grants the grace to receive a priest who dares to have big problems to solve and for which he conscientiously believes he should hear from the Pastor of the local Church who has given him the mandate to exercise the sacred ministry and in communion with whom he exercises the priesthood, here is that after glaring at him he often begins: "I felt, I don't want problems!». To one of these Bishops, to which I went to present a situation with a high risk of public scandal explosion, I replied to this joke: "Think about, instead I became a priest aware that I would have had a life of great problems, while she, who has received the fullness of the apostolic priesthood, he became bishop precisely in order not to have problems, accepting honors but rejecting all the great and onerous burdens of the episcopate. But look how strange life is!».

.

This is indeed the point: most of the new generation Bishops, ready to tear their clothes faster than Kaifa in front of an unknown illegal immigrant who drowned in the sea before reaching Lampedusa, they don't want pain in the ass, especially by their priests. And shortly after they declare to you in a theologically pleasant way to say the least that «the poor are the flesh of Christ». Indeed, as known, during the last supper Christ took a poor man and showed him to the Apostles telling them «this is my body, this is my blood", all after having washed the feet of the prisoners and whores of Jerusalem.

.

In many of our cathedrals the Mass of the Lord's Supper seems to have become the catwalk of whores. It is even rumored that an agency specially set up by the Nigerian Mafia provides the hire of whores to the Bishops for a fee, when on Maundy Thursday they have to put on their play: wash and kiss the feet of the whores. All with the applause of the local sections of the PD and the whole gotha the Left radical chic which magnifies the new «Church outgoing», so good and efficient at self-destructing itself, that it is no longer even necessary to oppose and strike it, we do everything by ourselves. And while this is happening, in the geriatric wards lay abandoned holy priests over eighty years old, with a life entirely given to the Church and to the People of God, to whom His Most Reverend Excellency takes care not to hand over the parrot to piss or wash the shit off, as I have done several times and similarly other brothers of mine, variously singled out by certain new generation bishops as "problematic priests", simply because they are faithful to the priesthood, to the doctrine and perennial magisterium of the Church. That's why we don't fear getting our hands dirty with piss and shit. Which the Bishop understandably cannot do, because he is too busy rinsing and kissing the feet of Nigerian whores on the day when the institution of the ministerial priesthood and the Holy Eucharist is solemnly commemorated, a solemnity now reduced for years to the theater of whores and prisoners, better if muslim. Or maybe he didn't choose Our Lord Jesus Christ, as Apostles consecrated priests of the New Covenant, a bunch of convicts and sluts?

.

As you can see from the chronicles not a day goes by without some priest leaping into the limelight for feats ranging from Eucharistic sacrilege to the grotesque [I refer to the articles by Father Ivano Liguori: WHO]. All facts before which, take it out on the priest or on priests in general, that would be the easiest, forgetting that we priests are only the tip of theiceberg and that the fault lies entirely with our Bishops and with that visible Church which in the name of a badly understood "spirit of the Council" - which completely distorted and distorted the last Council celebrated by the Fathers of the Church - has favored and even stimulated the laicization and the worldliness of the clergy. I've been repeating and writing about it for years: a crisis of doctrine arose within the Church which generated a great crisis of faith which finally gave rise to a serious moral crisis widespread among the clergy.

.

To say that priests should always wear a cassock by strict obligation and live their interior and exterior priestly life with great decorum and dignity, unfortunately it is a losing battle, totally. We have witnessed some scenes that to say indecorous is a small thing, think of the Paduan presbyter Marco Pozza who interviewed the Supreme Pontiff several times sitting in front of him with his legs crossed dressed in jeans, sneakers and cheeky open shirt, in a triumph of slovenliness like never before [cf.. video WHO, WHO, WHO]. But it gets worse, because he was the first to mock the cassock by rashly combining it with clericalism, to worldliness and rigidity, it was the Supreme Pontiff himself [cf.. WHO, WHO, WHO], unaware that the clericals of the worst kind are by no means the few priests who continue to wear the cassock as a clear sign of their inner and outer life, but some of his favorites politically correct from whom you get interviewed in jeans, sneakers and legs crossed. Of course, court ruffians can never be missing, for example the Archbishop of Catania who in violation of all ecclesiastical norms forbids his priests to wear the cassock outside churches, relegating it to liturgical dress [cf.. WHO], the whole, it goes without saying, to avoid unspecified forms of "rigidity".

.

Soon said: from the priest in civilian clothes who interviews the Supreme Pontiff to the priest with the red loincloth, o al tattooed priest doing bodybuilding and who posts photos of his pumped-up physique from the gym and anabolic steroids social media, the step is very short. Therefore, take it out on the Brescian presbyter Giuseppe Fusari, bodybuilder priest who publishes his own half-naked photo, more than a simple thing would almost be a cowardly thing, at least for us aware that "fish stinks starting from the head". It is therefore useless to blame the tip of the fish's tail, than the reckoning, more than guilty, he is only the victim of an ill-formed and totally deformed priesthood, all with the blessing of the new generation Bishops.

.

For little it may be worth, know that my experience makes my discomfort and pain particularly strong. Unease and pain that I share with many of my other confreres who, like me, had the grace from God to know as children, adolescents and young people of authentic holy priests, who then became our models of priestly life. We have met truly holy bishops, ready at any moment of their day to bend over backwards for their priests, none of whom died forgotten in the depths of a hospital without receiving a visit from the Bishop several times, who himself provided to comfort them with the Sacraments. I remember a Bishop who canceled two very important appointments that had been scheduled for months for that day: the sacred ordinations of four priests that should have been held in the morning and his participation in an important public event of a local-historical nature in the afternoon. One of his priests was dying in hospital, where the Bishop ran, canceling sacred ordinations an hour earlier with this lapidary phrase: «The four who are to become priests can also wait a few days, they have before them a whole priestly life. My task and duty is to assist a dying priest of mine, who gave his entire existence to the Church and to the service of the People of God". And we are not few who have come to the priesthood through these models of Bishops and Priests who remain fixed in our memories, but not as figures of a past time that was, but as holy models of what a bishop and presbyter ought to be, always and at all times.

.

We have known Bishops who did not speak at all in an obsessive-compulsive way about the poor and migrants and who, when they appeared in public, manifested in their outward form all the ineffable dignity of the episcopate, especially when they celebrated Holy Mass. Only when they died did we later discover that they hadn't even left any money for their funeral expenses, after giving everything they had to poor families who found it difficult to clothe their children. None of them would ever have dreamed of transforming their cathedral churches into taverns and being filmed by photographers and cameraman as they served meals to the poor, as if the Church - in particular the Italian one - did not have an abundance of buildings to set up lunches, avoiding desecrating churches.

.

Our decline is irreversible because we have crossed the threshold of no return for years now [cf.. my article WHO]. We must therefore witness the painful images of a Supreme Pontiff who is interviewed by a pretino-trends in indecorous attire and in perfectly rude poses, we have to put up with the antics of our Bishops who hire whores to rinse and kiss their feet Mass of the Lord's Supper reduced to a painful little theater of the grotesque, we must feel alone, strangers and even unwelcome in our Holy House increasingly similar to the hall of the Great Sanhedrin and the Praetorium of Pilate, aware that the passion of Gethsemane has begun for the Church. And after the crucifixion, death and burial, the mystagogical experience will conclude with the resurrection. At that point we will begin to rebuild with enormous effort on the ashes of the great destruction. And to do so we will be four cats, but animated by true faith, true hope and true charity.

The author of the delusional "Ratzinger Code" is an evident emissary of the smallest and most deviant Masonic esotericism of an anti-Catholic matrix

THE AUTHOR OF THE DELIRANT "CODE RATZINGER" IS AN EVIDENT EMISSARY OF THE SMALLEST AND DIFFERENT MASONIC ESOTERISM OF ANTI-CATHOLIC MATRIX

.

This character is looking for an author it is totally foreign to the world and to Catholic culture. We scholars on the way to old age do not require any particular effort to grasp between its lines, in addition to crass ignorance in matters of doctrine, of faith and above all of Church history and ecclesiastical law, a meandering esoteric element that just can't hide.

the pamphlet by Andrea Cionci

Who has been reading me for years and know my articles and books can impute many things to me, starting with my writing and expressing myself in an often harsh way, without resorting to periphrases and vague implications. To be incisive, I sometimes use colorful phrasebooks as idioms, especially on very delicate issues. It is therefore with extreme clarity that I publicly affirm that the journalist Andrea Cionci, author of Ratzinger Code, a pamphlet delusional and outrageous towards the Supreme Pontiff Francis, he is an emissary of the worst Masonic esotericism of an anti-Catholic matrix.

.

I know nothing of this subject, I don't care where and how he lived, where it comes from, what his public and private life is, how and where he was formed… nor would I ever dream of investigating him, as he tried to do on me, unaware of running into numerous people who promptly warned me: "A certain Andrea Cionci is beating far and wide to ask for very sensitive information about you". So I don't know who he is, I don't care to know nor do I want to know. Someone told me that the news about him on the Net is very scarce, an experienced computer engineer explained to me that maybe, your internet, your data may have been cleaned up, as if he was born suddenly at the moment in which he begins to write nonsense about Benedict XVI's act of resignation, which he considered invalid and the consequent illicit and invalid election of the "false usurper pope Bergoglio".

.

One of its limitations is not to measure one's opponents well, since the undersigned, as well as being a Tuscan-Roman priest who, if necessary, seasons the speech with a colorful word, it is a lot more: a very adult man with a complex lived experience that brought him, among other things, to have many acquaintances and friendships. I have known and still know senior state officials who have often turned to me for advice, or to use myself as an interlocutor with the Ecclesiastical Authorities, in order to avoid that certain clerics inclined to get into trouble ended up slammed on the front pages of newspapers for moral issues that do not constitute any crime under the law of the Italian Republic, but that for a young monsignor of the Roman Curia pinched in certain environments can instead represent a lot, both for Catholic ethics and for the internal law of the Church.

.

To this beginner with the complex of the genius who thinks to bring to light and dissolve the most complex and occult plots, I fear it is not very clear that I have been able to afford to publicly refer a criminal to a powerful cardinal of the Roman Curia, then fell out of favor, but eight months later, not when I accused him and his henchmen of being worse than those of the Banda della Magliana, because in those days he was an untouchable at the height of power [cf.. video: WHO, by the minute 37:30]. And nobody, starting with the Bishop to whose jurisdiction I belong, not even half a sigh. Now, one of two: or the Author of this pamphlet he's just an amateur on the loose who has to grow and mature, or is burdened with limits so insurmountable that they make him unable to understand that any priest who dared to give a criminal to a powerful cardinal of the Roman Curia, in response, the Ecclesiastical Authority would have taken off the skin by sending him running to graze the sheep, but those of the Sardinian flocks of the most remote lands of Barbagia, not the sheep of the Holy Flock of the Lord.

.

To accuse and convict a defendant proof is needed, in the absence of which we are all innocent until proven otherwise. This does not mean that to convict a murderer it is necessary to find him with the smoking gun in his hand and the bloody corpse of the dead man lying on the ground.. Or perhaps it appears that most of the men who ended up in jail for rape were caught in the act of crime by the State Police while they were intent on raping a woman? Anyone who has practiced criminal law or knows it a little in general culture, knows what the "circumstantial trial" is. This means that when there is no direct evidence through which the relevant substantial element takes shape, it is possible to arrive at the elaboration of the proof through clues that are not mutually discordant and that together end up proving the fact.

.

This character is looking for an author it is totally foreign to the world and to Catholic culture. We scholars on the way to old age do not require any particular effort to grasp between its lines, in addition to crass ignorance in matters of doctrine, of faith and above all of Church history and ecclesiastical law, a meandering esoteric element that just can't hide. Or was he not promptly put out the door when in the past, before venturing into the fantasy plots of the "invalid renunciation of Benedict XVI" and of the "Bergoglio antipope", tried to propose to very expert and serious scholars a work on the Holy Shroud that smelled of esotericism? In short, we are faced with a subject that is decidedly foreign to the world and to Catholic culture, who in a clumsy way to say the least has decided to take on the role of the traditionalist, that make it as bizarre as I would be if I decided to take off my priestly cassock and wear a miniskirt overnight. Okay I'm friends with trans Vladi Gain, aka Luxuria, but seeing me in such a state, I think the first to be disappointed would be her.

.

I mentioned earlier to various institutional environments with which I found myself in close contact. My relationships, always multiple and varied, they are those of a man who has contact with everyone, even with what is very far from Catholicism, always maintaining my identity as a priest and faithful theologian until death to the deposit of faith and to the Holy Church of Christ. Given this premise, I can have - and have - relationships of sincere friendship with a sex addict anarchist like Giuseppe Cruciani, with a pure communist like Vauro Senesi, which I respect both for its coherence and for its human sensitivity. I have repeatedly confronted myself with Alessandro Cecchi Paone, who makes no secret of his homosexuality or of the fact that he belongs to the highest degrees of Freemasonry and that he has a totally different perception of human life from mine, but with whom it has always been a great pleasure to talk. I wrote the preface to Francesco Mangiacapra's book, a former gigolo, today my dear friend, thanks to which a circle of priests who availed themselves of the sexual services of hustlers was brought out [cf.. WHO]. Among the Italian commentators, the one I respect most is Daniele Capezzone, ex child prodigy of Marco Pannella, model of authentic liberalism, lucid man and not conditioned by ideologies, starting with liberalism itself. but yet, on issues such as abortion and euthanasia we certainly do not think the same way, but this does not detract from my esteem for him.

.

I made these premises to get to the point: I fear that only a novice boy may think that he has not had or does not have relations with people who belong to the highest degrees of Freemasonry and who run the most ancient Lodges. All people who enjoy my esteem, many of them are scholars of the highest level, other internationally renowned professionals to whom it has always been clear what I think of Freemasonry as a Catholic and a priest, that is to say that joining it and being registered in the Masonic lodges is incompatible with being Catholic. Notwithstanding my esteem for many of these individuals, who in turn respect me and love me.

.

And just friends belonging to the highest degrees of Freemasonry they asked me if by chance I had not noticed that this kid in search of visibility manifested the typical way of thinking of those belonging to the esoteric currents of that pseudo-Freemasonry that their serious Masons do not recognize as such and that they have always judged ridiculous deviations from small and pathetic enlightened aspirants.

.

The reason soon explained: this character, which we cannot define as a dangerous wolf, annoying at best chihuahua with the complex of pitt bull, after masquerading as an unlikely Catholic and as an even more unlikely traditionalist Catholic, began to launch attacks on the Papacy of such violence that not even the most ferocious anticlerical Freemasons of the nineteenth century had managed to launch. Also because they were skilled men, capable and intelligent, for this they considered the Blessed Pontiff Pius IX a very gifted man, as well as a formidable opponent and not easy to hit.

.

What the Author of Ratzinger Code spreads they are a mass of theories built on not even obvious lack of evidence, but precisely on the total absence of the vaguest clues. Everything is based on absurd and alleged brain-bending evidence based on nothing and contrived through the manipulation and alteration of Church documents, some words, facts and even silences and non-answers given, to the point of creating absurd non-truths entirely based on illogical elements, irrational and surreal.

.

Why Alessandro Sallustri, long-time journalist and expert editor of newspapers, let this subject have been writing similar inconsistencies on the newspaper's blog for some years now Free? Let's try to explain it to the candid souls who take the statements of politicians and conductors to be true talk-show Mediaset and Rai who, speaking of Vladimir Putin's Russia, affirm: “We are a free country with a free press!». And here we must pay honors to Mrs. Ilona Staller, aka Cicciolina, who, on the other hand, would never dream of announcing «I am an unblemished virgin!», because she is a consistent and truthful woman. So, the newspaper Free belongs to the current of the various Right that in the Supreme Pontiff Francis - whether it be true or wrong - they see a figure in their opinion unbalanced towards the Left. And certain things - whether they are true or false - must always be paid for, sometimes even with the help and instigation of certain poisoned churchmen who, hidden behind the scenes, blow the fire. Now try to imagine what would have happened if the Author of the Ratzinger Code had dared to sketch a vague conspiratorial sigh about Senator Matteo Salvini or the Honorable Giorgia Meloni. In the space of a few hours they would bounce it off the mark of that newspaper. The same thing would have happened with any de The Republic if he had done the same with figures loved by the Left radical chic. Suffice it to recall the recent case of Senator Tommaso Cerno, another free and brilliant mind, excluded from all public televised debates for his aversion to the bill on homotransphobia by the Honorable Alessandro Zan, that if he had passed as it was written he would have pursued the crime of opinion [on the subject, I refer to the book written by the Capuchin theologian Ivano Liguori and myself: WHO]. And with this it is clear why this subject can write absurd things in that newspaper, in this historical moment and under the direction of that director. Simply because someone considered his junk politically useful for striking and sowing confusion, regardless of whether they are true. Or you think some people care about the truth? Sometimes some unintelligent manipulators invent that or that code without even realizing that they are being manipulated and used as "useful idiots" by more intelligent people who are part of the great cogs of more or less occult powers.

.

The Ecclesiastical Authority on the one hand, i media Catholics on the other hand, they are wise and prudent in saying that this subject should not be given any visibility and that there is no answer to those who build illogical-irrational theories on absurd and surreal elements. But, at a certain point, when the clues agree and end up forming evidence, it is necessary to affirm what the Ecclesiastical Authority cannot say but what I can say: this subject belongs to those esoteric strands of deviated pseudo-Freemasonry and for some years, disguised as an unlikely Catholic and an even more unlikely Catholic traditionalist, tries to strike outrageously, that Papacy that supports the entire structure of the Catholic Church is incessant and methodical.

.

An eminent historian of the Italian Risorgimento he told me that the most furious anticlericals who lived at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries never reached such low levels. Not just because they were people with intelligence and skills, but because of the Papacy they fought and wanted to overthrow they recognized all the authority, the authority and also the historical greatness. They certainly did not spread pamphlet in which they claimed to have demonstrated with irrefutable evidence that Pius IX was a false pontiff elected in an invalid conclave.

.

Faced with all this we have only one consolation, which in itself is no small thing: we are faced with a clumsy beginner with low intelligence. And this I do not say, A Venerable Master of the Grand Orient of Italy told me, seventy-year-old man and personality with an encyclopedic culture, who for twenty years has considered me a sincere and loyal friend and that for this reason has always known what I think of Freemasonry. But my public and private relationships with individuals are something else, not by chance I am a priest, which as such has a duty to welcome everyone and listen to everyone, always saying what to me, my faith and catholic morality is right or wrong, giving an example of an experience that is always in total adherence, both public and private, with the truths announced and taught by the Church.

.

I wish Andrea Cionci happy growth, while continuing to settle for fishing in the sea plot ByoBlu of Internet users suffering from functional illiteracy and digital illiteracy, ready to believe in the existence of pink elephants that fly with wings, because in addition to this audience can not go, they lack maturity, intelligence and talent. Therefore, be satisfied with doing business with an outcast like the poor priest excommunicated and discharged from the clerical state Alessandro Minutella.

.

To tell him all this with kindness he is a man who if he calls on the phone certain cardinals answer him after the third ring and that, for this and more, how the Church works and the Papacy thinks they know much better than he does. That is, just enough to give him a loving paternal caress on the head, take him by the hand, take him to eat an ice cream cone and wish him, between licks, to be able to become a great day to be able to take care of things when you grow up. Otherwise he will spend his life licking the bleeding wounds from the lashes received, without ever understanding that a first-hair teenager does not shoot a rubber-shot gun at a trained soldier holding a kalashnikov, does not give a slap to Mike Tyson, nor does he rush on a bicycle mountain bike along the tracks against the high-speed train, screaming that he had discovered the Ratzinger Code and to be able to shoot it, because of this, biggest of all.

The prayer, the unjust judge and the nagging widow

Homiletics of the Fathers of The Island of Patmos

PRAYER THE UNJUST JUDGE AND THE NESSING WIDOW

 

«Jesus told his disciples a parable about the need to always pray, tirelessly "

.

Author:
Gabriele Giordano M. Scardocci, o.p.

.

.

Dear brothers and sisters,

The church of the Dominican convent of Santa Maria Novella in Florence, where Father Gabriele was transferred and where he celebrated his first Holy Mass today

On this XXIX Sunday of ordinary time the Holy Gospel offers us a great and precious teaching on prayer [see liturgy of the word WHO]. In many other passages he described the importance of acts of mercy and charity towards God and neighbour. Today the central theme is instead prayer:

.

«Jesus told his disciples a parable about the need to always pray, tirelessly "

.

An unceasing prayer. Very often in the eyes of the contemporary world prayer is a boring practice, which is to be avoided, because they are old or because they are considered something outdated. On the contrary, prayer is first of all intimacy with God. One being with him in dialogue with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit: three People who listen to us and talk to us. It is not a dialogue for the deaf, as unfortunately often happens today, in communications via WhatsApp, Telegram or even in person. I remember a book from a few years ago, l’Ulisse at James Joyce. One of the protagonists, Molly, a long internal monologue begins. Talk about topics that are also messy with each other. Lying on a bed. Then it answers itself. It turns to Jesus and God. But materially he doesn't listen to them.

.

Instead, Jesus came to tell us to open our hearts unceasingly to God, because it is a dialogue that will change your life permanently. Not just life, but every day we entrust ourselves to Him in prayer. Like this, to make it clearer, Jesus tells his followers the parable of the unjust judge and the insistent widow. What the Lord wants to underline is the insistence of the widow, despite the situation of injustice that she lives. At the end of his insistence is granted. So at the end of the parable he says:

.

“Listen to what the crooked judge says. And God will not perhaps do justice to his elect, who cry out to him day and night? It will probably make them wait a long time? I tell you he will do them justice promptly. But the Son of Man, when will, find faith on earth?».

.

Prayer is then our tenacious action. To entrust ourselves to God in our moments of suffering, in the injustices we live, in our spiritual aridity. Because the Lord knows everything about us and in prayer he continually feeds us with his grace and his gifts of the Holy Spirit. Prayer therefore prepares us to receive other graces and other greater gifts. But as Jesus himself says at the end with a rhetorical question, prayer is what feeds faith. That faith, theological virtue, that the Lord has generated in us and wants to find each day, because faith is falling in love with God. It is the most beautiful love of all.

.

The prayer it is therefore that action which allows us to be ever more in love and fervent in charity towards God and our neighbour. In the Catholic tradition there are different types of prayer: the vocal one, the singing, meditation and contemplation. For us Dominicans, contemplative prayer is very important. When you do the temple: contemplation is like becoming a temple, become one with Jesus. So, an entry into the depths of Jesus: a relationship of intimacy in charity and truth.

.

We ask the Lord to become more and more believers who pray to God with heart and spirit, so that we can wet our existential deserts with the rain of the tender and deep love of those who have loved us to the end.

When the priest wants to promote the rights of secularism, the bishops have the duty to demand a priest who promotes the Church

WHEN THE PRIEST WANTS TO PROMOTE THE RIGHTS OF LAICISM, BISHOPS HAVE THE DUTY TO DEMAND A PRIEST WHO PROMOTES THE CHURCH

For some priests today, living in the Church is a bit like receiving citizenship income, allows you to live on a salary without giving absolutely anything. Removing the fairness from these subjects would be the first necessary action, together with the ban on holding representative ecclesial positions in the name of a Church with which they do not feel in communion.

A highly recommended book to read (click on the image to open the presentation)

After the celebration of the Holy Mass on the mat [you see who, who, who, who] and the one in cycling gear [you see who, who, who, who] the kermesse of the clerically correct has added a new piece towards the completion of the great mosaic of Church outgoing, poor for the poor, in which the only true poverty perceived by all is that in doctrinal matters which ends up conditioning pastoral practice.

.

So in beautiful Liguria, on the border with the Cinque Terre, in Bonassola the priest Giulio Mignani of the diocese of La Spezia-Sarzana-Brugnato earned the honor of ambassador for the rights of secularism, so much so that he had none other than the fierce Marco Cappato as his attendant [you see who, who, who, who]. I have to say we missed it, for the "joy" of the priest and the promoter of euthanasia, a safe one performance of our Father Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo, promptly invited to debate with them at the program Straight and Reverse airing Thursday 13 October on the Internet 4. However, our brother did not intend to miss the funeral of one of his great teachers, il Gesuita Peter Gumpel, distinguished theologian and historian of dogma [see who], celebrated in Rome on Friday morning at 10 at the chapel of the general curia of the Society of Jesus. This made it impossible for him to go to the studios in Cologno Monzese. Whether it was good or bad is unknown, perhaps we would have witnessed who knows what fireworks.

.

Both clear, all this hubbub is not the result of a summer coup but is the reasoned and meticulous work of several years of parish ministry in which this pro-euthanasia priest presented himself as the exponent of a pro-German theological thought that outlines him as a breakthrough priest, as indeed he did, the priest Ettore Cannavera is doing and will continue to do so in Sardinia [you see who].

.

From Crotone to Mazara del Vallo passing through Bonassola, including islands, here is the new sacred way created in which the new inclusive presbyters, resilient and champions of love proudly show off their iridescent vestments until they tread the fence of the Temple of Rights in which they can offer the first fruits of their zeal and reiterate that the only true existing dogma is the Resistance.

.

Yup, resistance and vigilance, as we believe the Italian Episcopal Conference is already doing after the last political elections [you see who, who]. In front of a Church deemed homophobic and allergic to civil policies on abortion and the end of life, there is a need to resist: resist before the Truth, resist common sense, resist the obvious, resist even in the face of the blameless innocence that is embodied in the features of a fetus, of a disabled or terminally ill person, resist above all before Jesus Christ who no longer informs the life of numerous priests, which wink at civil militancy. Worker priests were once fashionable, today those activists and resisters!

.

As we know, the best resistance it is the one that is consumed to enter, among fifth columns who operate within the archbishop's curiae, in the parish halls, where priests can freely do theirs coming out of thought and manifest the true intentions that are combined with the very respectable a-theological and a-Catholic reasoning that is passed off as the architecture on which an alternative spirituality is built (not “backwards” some would say), as the pro-euthanasia priest is quick to clarify to the Iene interviewer [see video who by the minute 4,30].

.

If it is true that the mouth speaks of the fullness of the heart [Mt 12,34], the mouth of this priest and many others like him has spoken abundantly in recent years, consciously and proudly placing himself outside the teaching of the Church. But this time, in the well-oiled machine of the fight for civil rights, something went wrong, a bishop wanted to have his say and got in the way as an evangelical stumbling block so that it was known to everyone that the militancy of that priest of his was and is not only wrong, but it had to get to the end of the line.

.

I am absolutely convinced that the news of the canonical provision of the suspension from the gods arrived without too many surprises: certainly not for the priest who had already been thinking about leaving the Church for some time [you see who] but also for the La Spezia diocese accustomed to the priest's constant declarations of rights. For his part, the bishop S. AND. Mons. Luigi Ernesto Palletti he behaved like a great gentleman, he did nothing more than an authentic successor of the apostles should do, something that today defines him as a white fly in the Italian episcopal panorama. Not only did he truly prove himself to be a patient father in the face of the whims of this prodigal son - a disruptive priest who had quite broken the orthodox presbyteral gonads of others - but he also knew how to promote paths of recovery and reconciliation with this priest of his who was more intent on defending civil rights than on loving the Church of Christ of which he was appointed minister.

.

I want to remind all our readers that every candidate for the priesthood, before ordination as a deacon and before ordination as a priest he pronounces a very clear and binding oath, which he then reiterates when he takes on official roles within the Church. Below I report the texts which you need to refer to:

.

I N.N. I believe and profess with firm faith all the individual truths that are contained in the symbol of faith, that is: I believe in one God, Almighty Father, creator of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, only begotten Son of God, He born of the Father before all ages: God from God, light from light, True God from true God, generated, not created, of the same substance as the Father; through him all things were created. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the work of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate in the womb of the Virgin Mary and became man. He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, died and was buried. On the third day he was resurrected, according to the Scriptures, he ascended to heaven, sits at the right hand of the Father. It will come again, in glory, to judge the living and the dead, and his reign will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, who is Lord and gives life and proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified, and spoke through the prophets. I believe the Church, a Catholic and apostolic saint. I profess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. I await the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen. I also believe with firm faith everything that is contained in the written or transmitted Word of God and that the Church, both with solemn judgment and with ordinary and universal magisterium, proposes to believe as divinely revealed. I firmly accept and retain all the individual truths regarding the doctrine concerning faith or customs definitively proposed by the Church. I also adhere with religious obedience of will and intellect to the teachings that the Roman Pontiff or the College of Bishops propose when they exercise their authentic Magisterium, although they do not intend to proclaim them with a definitive act.

I N.N. in assuming the office of […] I promise to always maintain communion with the Catholic Church, both in my words and in my way of acting. I will fulfill with great diligence and fidelity the duties to which I am bound towards the Church, both universal and particular, in which, according to the rules of law, I was called to exercise my service. In exercising the office, which was entrusted to me on behalf of the Church, I will preserve intact and faithfully transmit and illustrate the deposit of faith, thus rejecting any doctrine contrary to it. I will follow and support the discipline common to the whole Church and will ensure the observance of all ecclesiastical laws, in particular those contained in the Code of Canon Law. I will observe with Christian obedience what the sacred Pastors declare as authentic doctors and masters of the faith or establish as heads of the Church, and I will faithfully lend aid to the diocesan Bishops, because the apostolic action, to be exercised in the name and by mandate of the Church, be carried out in communion with the Church itself.

So help me God and these holy Gospels I touch with my hands.

I will uphold the discipline common to the whole Church and promote the observance of all ecclesiastical laws, in particular those contained in the Code of Canon Law. I will observe with Christian obedience what the sacred Pastors declare as authentic doctors and masters of the faith or establish as heads of the Church, and in union with the diocesan bishops, without prejudice to the nature and purpose of my Institute, I will willingly lend my work for apostolic action, to be exercised in the name and by mandate of the Church, be carried out in communion with the Church itself.

.

The La Spezia priest Giulio Mignani he certainly pronounced this demanding oath in front of his bishop and the officials of the Curia, although he actually claimed quite the opposite. It would therefore be time to reach a reckoning, not within the battle for the defense of civil rights, but in the heart and life of this brother priest. I'll explain: in Italy no one forbids anyone from pursuing a career as an activist in any field (as long as the law is respected), for this reason Giulio Mignani would do well in the future to discern what he intends to do. He has the full right to exercise parrhesia and tell his bishop that he is renouncing his priesthood to pursue the noble cause of being a pro-abortion activist., pro-euthanasia, pro-rainbow unions, thus leaving his single and respectable person to speak, not, however, that of the Church which as a priest he represents and of which he wants to be the spokesperson.

.

I repeat: this is within his rights, as is the full right of the Church, of bishops and the faithful to have priests who know how to announce Christ, bear witness to the Gospel of life and defend the deposit of faith from the predatory wolves that insinuate error, even if weak and sinners. No one has ever demanded a certificate of impeccability from priests, we are the first to experience the contradiction, but a proportionate clarification of one's intentions freely assumed before the Church and the holy people of God at the moment of sacred ordination is necessary.

.

I'll be mischievous but for some priests today, living in the Church is a bit like receiving a citizen's income, allows you to live on a salary without giving absolutely anything. Removing the fairness from these subjects would be the first necessary action, together with the ban on holding representative ecclesial positions in the name of a Church with which they do not feel in communion. After that we wait to see if the various associations promoting civil rights, those who do not skimp on publicizing and inciting this kind of priests, they would be able to take on their complete maintenance, perhaps as leafleteers in schools in favor of the RU486 pill, in some gazebo in the square to tell us how merciful and good euthanasia is or perhaps how barman at the Muccassassina in Rome. Because it must be clear that whoever preaches the Gospel, he will be supported in his needs by the Gospel. Who instead preaches civil rights, by civil rights must be equally supported, given that it is no longer possible to invoke error or mental confusion when one has come to make a clear and public profession of faith as an activist.

.

I hope I'm wrong but from now to a few months we could still hear about this brother, perhaps because it was reduced to the lay state, at his request or as a canonical consequence for failure to repent. In front of a Church perceived as obscurantist and incapable of recognizing true love, he will be the new martyr of rights and inclusion. Carried in triumph among the various television salons of democratic thought, he will proclaim the beauty of being a priest: priest without any more mediation with the divine, priest mortified in his being a prophet against the current, priest emptied of that fortress of martyrs who know how to face the cross especially when they feel helpless.

.

I conclude by expressing all my regret for those faithful who today cry scandal due to the suspension peep by Giulio Mignani, because they don't realize that this brother is not their property to use, just as it is terribly unfair to perceive him as a battering ram to force the door of the Church. I'm also sorry for all the homosexual brothers, for all women who have had abortions and for those who have wanted to end their lives: they missed a good opportunity to meet a Cyrenean capable of supporting their suffering without judgement, so much so that we were relieved for a stretch of the road, set off towards the only true liberation that arrives on the morning of Easter Sunday and which has the Risen Christ as its only true protagonist, not a man – even if animated by the best intentions – who plays at den free everyone.

Peter Gumpel (1923-2022) Jesuit theologian and historian of dogma, he was academic, expert at the Second Vatican Council, general postulator of the Society of Jesus and postulator of the cause of beatification of Pius XII

Yesterday morning Andrea Tornielli, dear old friend, he had the sensible kindness to inform me that the Jesuit Peter Kurt Gumpel had recently died, theologian and historian of dogma, already expert at the Second Vatican Council, for half a century postulator general of the Society of Jesus together with his confrere Paolo Molinari (1924-2014), with whom he took care of the cause of beatification of Pius XII. Both were trusted private advisors of the Holy Pontiff Paul VI in the delicate and turbulent historical phase of the post-council.

.

Father Peter, born in Hannover on 15 November 1923, he came from a rich family of the ancient German aristocracy, soon disliked the Nazi regime. This is the reason why they first moved to France and then to Holland, where the very young Peter, he learned the language and studied. Being a connoisseur of that country and its language, when decades later the delicate problem of the publication of the Dutch Catechism arose (1966), the Supreme Pontiff Paul VI sent him as his trustee on a visit to Holland.

.

Only male heir of the family, several times he told me of how much adolescent he expressed to his father that he wanted to enter the Society of Jesus:

.

“We were in the car, my father stopped, he made me get off with my dachshund dog with whom I walked a few kilometers to return home. When I entered my father told me never to go back to certain fantasies. Then he added that he would allow me to enter the Society of Jesus only if the Supreme Pontiff himself had told him ".

.

The young man took his father at his word. The family had known and hosted Archbishop Eugenio Pacelli several times, at the time apostolic nuncio to Berlin, elected in 1939 to the sacred throne, to which he did not hesitate to write. A month later the father received an autograph letter from the Supreme Pontiff Pius XII asking him to allow his son to enter the Society of Jesus..

.

Since I was a student with his brother Paolo Molinari he made a profound one, fraternal and intense friendship that lasted for a lifetime. During his student period in England he was an indefatigable fan of Father Paolo who masterfully played football. To my question if he ever played, with humor all the Teutonic answered:

.

"No, because it is intellectually more gratifying and physically less tiring to cheer from the stands for those who play ".

.

Yup, he preferred to sit and smoke one cigarette after another and enjoying the game of others. Heavy smoker, several times I found him in his study enveloped in a blanket of smoke. He could also have not signed the documents he had drawn up, because the author could have been recognized by the smell of tobacco that impregnated them. I told him once while I was smoking with him:

.

«Certainly smoking is seriously harmful to health, but I fear that even cancer is far from the Jesuits, taking care not to have to deal with dangerous subjects like you ".

.

Father Peter and Father Paolo they have been my teachers and trainers, for years they have guided me beyond the words imprinted in the documents of the Second Vatican Council, explaining step by step from which stories and events many of those texts were born. After my specialized studies in dogmatics, Father Peter started me on the study of the history of dogma, in the absence of which one can run the risk of ending up immersed in a dogmatic that rests on the clouds. He suggested that my bishop send me to study for a period of time in Germany, where I had some Jesuits of the old guard as teachers. Later I was trained in the postulation of the causes of the Saints, where they instructed me mainly on the papers of the delicate and complex process of beatification of the Venerable Pontiff Pius XII, to which I dedicated in 2006 the main section of my work Herbs Amare, from which a single essay dedicated to the figure of Eugenio Pacelli was later born: Pius XII and the Shoah.

.

The 2 May 2014, when the funeral services of Father Paolo Molinari were celebrated in the chapel of the General Curia of the Society of Jesus, I understood that Father Peter had lost half of his life and that from then on he would be prepared to lose the other half he had left.

.

The year was 2013 when during an interview he told me that the current Society of Jesus had no affinity and similarity with the one in which he had entered at the beginning of the Second World War. I understood that he was not referring to a transformation due to a natural process of evolution, but to a radical deformation that had long since affected the very heart of the charism of the Companions of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

.

Shortly after the friend's notice I arrived at the Residenza San Pietro Canisio together with my brother Marcello Stanzione, great expert in angelology with whom I had been traveling until the day before. We found his body composed at the least worst possible way, placed in a corner at the entrance of the San Pietro Canisio Residence, without a cross, without a light on, without a flower. Emblem of the squalor of today's East India Company. I kissed the cold forehead of my father and trainer, I laid my hands on his and together with Father Marcello we recited the From the depths and blessed is that revered body which it contained for almost 100 years his immortal priestly soul.

.

Father Peter Gumpel he was the last of the Mohicans. When tomorrow morning at 10 her funeral services will be celebrated with him will be permanently buried, after the previous deaths of the other elders, what was once the glorious Society of Jesus, reduced today to all the most tragic squalor personified by the unhappy and above all seriously heterodox jokes of their Superior General Arturo Sosa Abascal.

I had already anticipated in my article yesterday [see WHO], that the press release would arrive on time to clarify that "... the Bishop was misunderstood".

.

And as anticipated, this happened: the Bishop of Terni filmed holding the ribbon during the cut for the inauguration of the new Masonic Lodge was just misunderstood. He was not an imprudent man who was poised between the imprudent and the idiot, but it was misunderstood, as the diocese's official communiqué says [see WHO].

.

I take this opportunity to inform the President of the Italian Episcopal Conference and the Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops who in the next edition of Erotic Festival they will be able to see me between two pornstars plus with breasts in the wind intent on holding the ribbon for the inaugural cut, exactly as the Bishop of Terni did, misunderstood and misunderstood. And it is clear: that no one dares to misunderstand me. Also because a priest between two is much better and far less harmful pornstars than a blatantly imprudent bishop holding the inaugural ribbon to the Masons, only to declare himself misunderstood and misunderstood.

From his unreal world Alessandro Minutella takes it out on Archbishop Georg Gänswein. A human tragedy and a disaster of souls in a period of devastating crisis affecting the Catholic Church

FROM HIS WORLD OF THE IRREAL ALESSANDRO MINUTELLA TAKES IT UP WITH ARCHBISHOP GEORG GANSWEIN. A HUMAN TRAGEDY AND A DISASTER OF SOULS IN A PERIOD OF DEVASTATING CRISIS THAT INVOLVES THE CATHOLIC CHURCH

 

In a Church that in an obsessive way seems capable of talking only about the poor and migrants while the house is burning engulfed in flames, a subject like Mr. Minutella can gather followers and produce huge souls disasters. Nor can we forget that he certainly did not become a priest by himself, quite the opposite: it is the emblem of one of the many monsters created by the superficiality and lack of vigilance of our Bishops and the formators appointed by them to train future priests.

To open the video conference click on the image

Athe sad case by Alessandro Minutella, suspended priest from Palermo peep In the 2017, fell into excommunication In the 2018, resigned In the 2022 by the clerical state, punishment that the Church very rarely inflicts, I dedicated one conference to which I refer.

.

Il Signor Minutella he's a serial liar lying - who knows, perhaps even knowing that he is lying? ―, contradicting itself for years continuously. Proof of this are his videos present by the hundreds on the Internet in which he usually affirms the opposite of what was previously stated even after a short time, or even in the space of a single video. The dangerous element that characterizes this twisted psychology is the continuous falsification and manipulation of facts, of the history and documents of the Church and what they contain. Mr. Minutella specializes in having the documents of the Magisterium of the Church say what they do not contain. The technique he uses is always the same: takes a few lines, manipulates them, it distorts the text and makes the document say what it does not say. We have repeatedly shown that on certain texts it is not written what Mr. Minutella attributes to him but the exact opposite of what he affirms and supports.

.

Let's try to clarify matters with just one example among many: to argue that the election of the legitimate Successor of the resigning Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI is invalid and that the reigning Pontiff is a usurper antipope, has always used the Apostolic Constitution Dominic Flock where the Holy Pontiff John Paul II establishes:

.

"If the election had taken place otherwise than as prescribed in this Constitution or if the conditions set out here had not been observed, the election is therefore null and void, without any declaration in this regard e, so, it does not confer any rights on the elected person " [cf.. n. 76].

.

This statement however, it is only the conclusion of the entire previous Chapter V placed as closed at the end of precise and detailed explanations related to the mechanism of voting in conclave. Extrapolating these four lines and building on them what the entire Apostolic Constitution does not say is a serious and dishonest mystification. However, this is the consolidated action that Mr. Minutella has been carrying out for years: extrapolates a passage in which pacts and agreements between the Cardinals before the conclave are prohibited, extrapolates a closure that concludes Chapter V, after which it omits, with obvious criminal intent, to cite the article that clarifies since the opening of the following Chapter VI:

.

"If in the election of the Roman Pontiff - God forbid - the crime of simony were perpetrated, I decide and declare that all those who are guilty of it will incur excommunication automatic and that the nullity or non-validity of the same simoniacal provision is nevertheless removed, so that for this reason - as already established by my Predecessors - the validity of the election of the Roman Pontiff is not challenged [cf.. n. 78].

.

This is imprinted in that Apostolic Constitution to which Mr. Minutella attributes what was never written by the Holy Pontiff John Paul II, which, without penalty of misunderstanding, clarifies that not even the shameful and grave crime of simonia renders the election of the Roman Pontiff invalid and illegitimate.

.

The game should be clear and easy to unmask, but this is precisely the problem: Mr. Minutella addresses an audience of lost and superficial people in front of whom two different ways of acting collide: that of us theologians, philosophers and jurists who we speculate on the basis of scientific criteria structured on logic and rationality, that of the pseudo-theologian Minutella who knowingly plays on the emotionality of the frail and the weak and who acts in total disregard of logic and rationality. The pseudo-theology of Mr. Minutella is structured on a heretical Mariology with a millenarian structure that totally distorts the figure of the Blessed Virgin Mary changed into a modern pagan divinity, with constant obsessive magical-esoteric references to the imminent triumph of his immaculate heart, without taking into account the absolute centrality of the Christological mystery. with a style that ranges between the tele-barker and the magician who reads the tarot, Mr. Minutella continually arouses in fragile and lost people that deleterious spirit towards which the Blessed Apostle Paul warns us by saying:

.

«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 " [II Tm 4, 1-4].

I neuro-video-delusions of Signor Minutella are an incessant itchy stimulus through the spreading of Marian messages, visions of mystics and mystics and their alleged prophecies, most of which have never been recognized as authentic by the Church. Tease the catastrophic morbidity with the messages of Our Lady of Fatima, obviously after having twisted and manipulated them, presents the writings of Maria Valtorta as foundations of faith, heedless of the negative judgments and condemnations of the Church [cf.. My previous article, WHO]. He insists that the “prophecies” of Blessed Katharina Emmerick are authentic, because according to him beatified by the Church. In doing so he demonstrates disturbing and crass ignorance, because when in the 2004 Emmerick was beatified the competent dicastery of the Holy See reiterated the inauthenticity of the so-called prophecies attributed to her by writing:

.

«The blessed has certainly left us only three letters. The other writings, which are erroneously attributed to it, have different origins: the "visions" of the Passion of Christ were annotated and reworked with great freedom and without any control by the German writer Clemens Brentano (1778-1842). The works in question cannot be considered either written or dictated by Emmerick and not even authentic transcriptions of her statements and narratives, but a literary work by Brentano " [Declaration of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, 2004].

.

If the Church proclaims a blessed, or later proclaims a blessed as a saint, this does not imply that he recognizes, you beatify and canonize everything you have said or written. Affirm to your followers that everything is authentic because the Church has beatified or canonized, it means expressing genuine idiocy. Mr. Minutella is able to mix together Our Lady of Fatima with Saint Malachi Bishop of Armagh, lived in the twelfth century, whose “prophecies” on the popes are a resounding forgery attributed to him and further manipulated in the seventeenth century. Mr. Minutella done all this, as Friar Cipolla in the short story of Giovanni Boccaccio, reassures the villagers about the authenticity of the amazing relics displayed, pointing out that he is "twice a doctor of sacred theology" and that he is a theologian trained at the school of St. Thomas Aquinas, as well as expert in theology of the famous twentieth century theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar. In fact, Mr. Minutella is so limited and ignorant that he would not be able to make even the structure of one question dell’Aquinate, however, he has such a nerve that he would be able to declare even the sensational fake of the Constantinian donation, stating that Lorenzo Valla, who proved its falsity in 1440, he was just a poor incompetent.

.

Numerous followers of this sect leader are suffering from functional illiteracy which makes them unable to read and understand a document, from other digital illiteracy. Both take as gold standard what their guru says, taking care not to make a very minimum effort: go on official site of the Holy See, look for and read the documents of the Magisterium of the Church which he overturned to ascertain that they say the exact opposite of what Mr. Minutella bi-doctor in sacred theology attributes to him. Both of these types of people are to such an extent devoid of critical sense that they are unable to analyze certain statements and compare them with those that demonstrate how surreal and insane the statements of Mr. Minutella are.. Let me be clear, by ignorant we do not mean humble or simple people who are always ready to listen and learn what they do not know, but those who refuse to reason, who are incapable of developing critical thinking and who with aggressive pride feel they possess knowledge, especially of true faith.

.

For some time now a journalist who writes rants on the newspaper's blog has taken on the shoulder of Mr. Minutella Free and who recently published a book in which he explains how the resigning Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI made an act of resignation through a document deliberately made invalid by various Latin grammatical errors. I do not know if this Lord is aware that in the Holy Gospels there are some errors, even gross ones due to translations and transcriptions, perhaps he also intends to invalidate the revealed Word of God? And so, after the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI, forced to make an act of resignation, would have retired to "an impeded seat", began to speak and communicate "in code", to demonstrate in cryptic language the invalidity of his renunciation and the state of impediment that would not allow him to speak and express himself, but only to send encrypted messages, of which he is the only and brilliant world interpreter, as well as discoverer, this reporter fantasy Of Free.

.

The birth and proliferation of certain subjects it can also be a natural reaction in historical-social contexts that have always been known in sociology and mainly linked to the various stages of decadence marked by great cultural regresses and the consequent rejection of the basic principles of human rationality. It is in fact known that when one ceases to believe in the foundations of revealed faith, one ends up believing in everything. Of course, what is very perplexing is that a nice face of an undertaker like the director of Free Alessandro Sallustri allows space for such garbage. It would be as if in the nineties The Corriere della Sera had entrusted a front page column to Wanna Marchi and the magician Mário Pacheco Do Nascimento, if anything, after having removed space and closed a column entrusted to Vittorio Messori. A long-time newspaper editor who does not realize this is almost the corpse of a journalist who has now lost even that stiffness of death which might give it a certain charm.

.

In fact, we are beyond science fiction, beyond the grotesque, because if Benedict XVI had done what is attributed to him by Wanna Marchi and the magician Do Nascimento - respectively priest dismissed from the clerical state and journalist fantasy - you understand well that we would find ourselves before the most lying and cowardly Pontiff in the history of the Church.

.

Deny these people, as has been done several times, it is completely useless, because Mr. Minutella and the journalist author of this fantastic Ratzinger Code upset any sentence, word or deed. Example: Benedict XVI blinked his right eyelid twice? Think of it as a natural mechanism of the human body dictated by the functioning of the facial muscles? Absolutely not. In truth it is a Ratzingerian morse code through which the Holy Father, forced to make an act of renunciation, is communicating and confirming that he is in an "impeded seat" and that he is always the only and legitimate Roman Pontiff. Some think that Benedict XVI's hunched shoulders are due to the natural physical decline of a man in his nineties? Absolutely not. In truth, it is proof that the Holy Father is bent under the weight of the oppression of the Bergoglian conspiracy hatched by the so-called Mafia of St. Gallen by the cardinal Masons who are all venerable masters of the XXXIII degree of the Masonic Grand Lodge of the ancient Scottish rite.

.

It recently ended up in the viewfinder S. AND. Mons. George Ganswein Prefect emeritus of the Papal Household and still faithful private secretary of the resigning Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI, to which Mr. Minutella sent a letter together with a small group of seven other priests following him on 6 August, asking for an account and confirmation that Benedict XVI had truly and validly renounced and that the Supreme Pontiff Francis was really his legitimate successor. We reason: to questions as idiotic and provocative as it would be possible to answer, especially if they are posed by manipulators who usually distort any response, even the clearest and most decisive? In fact, the reaction was not long in coming: a few weeks later, Mr. Minutella explained that the lack of response should not be read as a form of rudeness, but as a test of silence-assent. This is equivalent to sending a message to the Abbess of the Poor Clares of strict observance to ask if she is a virgin or if before becoming a nun, when she was a young secular woman, she had had sexual intercourse with men. These are perhaps questions to ask? there, do not think that asking such questions to a Supreme Pontiff who has made an act of resignation is so different from asking a question like the one just illustrated to the Abbess of the Poor Clares, except to state below that her failure to answer is a proof to be read as a form of silence-assent on the part of the Reverend Mother.

.

Recently Mr. Minutella complained that H.E. Mons. Georg Gänswein allegedly telephoned the brother priest of a German priest who joined his entourage stating that this subject is in concrete facts a “crazy” as well as “theologically out of my mind” and that his book Pietro, where are you? it does not deserve the paper it is printed on”. Let me be clear: all this is stated by Mr. Minutella, we don't know if this phone call took place. If it had happened, we do not know what Archbishop Georg Gänswein really said to his interlocutor and in what terms. One thing is certain: in case he had expressed those judgments, he would have said and summarized nothing but the reality of the facts.

.

The reply was not long in coming of Mr. Minutella who first of all gave the ignorant to Archbishop Georg Gänswein who by training is a canonist and who according to him "should know that a madman cannot incur excommunication, because he is not aware and therefore not responsible for his actions ". Also in this case, Mr. Minutella confirms Urbi et Orbi his ignorance and narrowness. Not all insane people or all people suffering from severe psychiatric disorders are subjects incapable of understanding and willing. We could start from Friedrich Nietzsche dead mad until the mathematician John Forbes Nash, Nobel Prize for Economics, who suffered from a very severe form of schizophrenia which could never be cured. All this proves that if there is an overt ignorant man, it is certainly not Archbishop Georg Gänswein but Mr. Minutella.

.

Victimist and whiner to the point of paroxysm, Mr. Minutella has been repeating for years: "No one wants to confront me on the merits of the issues", implying and giving his followers to drink that no theologian, canonist and ecclesiologist would hold up a comparison with such great and powerful science. The reality is quite different: although it proclaims itself "lion of Mary", in truth, Mr. Minutella is just a poor werewolf who screams like a castrated capon in a camera room from which he throws arrows in his videos, but who has always been careful not to seek and accept comparisons with true and serious scholars. Before Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke and the presbyter and theologian Nicola Bux, who tried to bring him back into the ranks at the beginning of his mad delusions between the 2016 and the 2017, this self-styled "lion of Mary" werewolf stood before them with his head down, with the tail between the legs and the small voice. So he did with them as with other interlocutors. Then, when she walks into her video-shooting room with her adoring caregivers nodding, at that point it turns into a hyena.

.

Qhen in September 2018 the Supreme Pontiff Francis he went to Palermo Mr. Minutella was warned in time and a private meeting with the Holy Father was proposed, so that she could have a chance to ask him about it or tell him what he thought to his face. All before he was notified of the excommunication automatic. What was the reaction of the self-styled "lion of Mary" werewolf? Two days before the arrival of the Holy Father he went to Verona, fired every worst poison and two days later returned to Palermo to continue vomiting on "Bergoglio antipope usurper emissary of the Antichrist", obviously from his room of filming assisted by his adoring caregivers. Why the "lion of Mary" did not take that splendid opportunity to tell the person directly concerned what he thought of him, instead of fleeing to Verona two days earlier and returning two days after the Holy Father had left Palermo? If the followers of this pathological liar ask coward unable to deal with anyone on the merits of delicate theological and juridical issues which he reduced to a little theater of the grotesque.

.

Someone wondered: why they did not receive it from Benedict XVI, so that he was informed by the voice of the person concerned about his free and valid act of renunciation, thus bringing him back to the right path? Several thought about this eventuality, but it was prudently discarded, the results would have been so obvious: the "lion of Mary" would have prostrated himself with his tail between his legs, her head down and her small voice, then, just got home, he would have flung himself into his bedroom to take on the role of the werewolf and announce that thanks to that meeting he had had irrefutable proof that Benedict XVI, imprisoned in “venue prevented”, he had been forced to reassure him under the threat of the powerful ecclesiastical freemasonry of the Vatican ruled by cardinal Satanist Masons affiliated to the Grand Orient of the Scottish Rite.

.

Mr. Minutella is one of the many monsters born within the Church and before which we should all question ourselves, our Bishops in the lead. He is neither intelligent nor cultured, he is by no means a talented communicator and is devoid of rhetorical art, he's just a salesman, a barker. Its cultural narrowness is embarrassing, for this he needs to advertise the academic qualifications obtained in ecclesiastical universities, which have never been proof and attestation of ability, science and intelligence. For several decades a specialization or a theological doctorate in Rome has been granted to anyone. We priests and theologians, that we know this, we laugh about it every time Mr. Minutella reassures his followers by citing their academic qualifications as a guarantee of the nonsense he utters.

.

Like a real cancer Mr. Minutella came to life and developed in a historical moment of serious intra and extra ecclesial crisis. For years I have been repeating that since the end of the 1960s a crisis of doctrine has developed in the Church which has given rise to a crisis of faith., the consequence of which was finally a devastating moral crisis of the clergy [cf.. my book And Satan became triune]. Devoid of intelligence and culture but rich in the cunning of the old illiterate peasant who can also be able to outsmart you with shrewdness, Mr. Minutella starts based on true things and objective data linked to this great and painful decadence that is affecting the Church, after which it sells endless falsehoods, gathering ever greater numbers of followers among those weak and lost Catholics who seek guidance and safety.

.

in a Church that obsessively he seems able to speak only of the poor and migrants while the house is burning engulfed in flames, a subject like Mr. Minutella can gather followers in ever greater numbers and produce enormous disasters of souls. Nor can we forget that he certainly did not become a priest by himself, quite the opposite: it is the emblem of one of the many monsters created by the superficiality and lack of vigilance of our Bishops and the formators appointed by them to train future priests. These would be the real ones MEA culpa that the Church should do, instead of asking forgiveness from the natives of the Americas to whom i “bad” Spanish conquerors of the 16th century prevented from continuing to make human sacrifices of children to the Inca and Aztec deities, thus giving breath to the trumpets of Signor Minutella, a monster that did not create itself but that was created by us, largely guilty and responsible for the huge disasters that it is doing on souls.

The Bishop of Terni-Narni-Amelia at the cutting of the ribbon for the inauguration of the new Masonic Lodge

Faced with a fact of this kind my balls turn to the point that if they put me to soak in the port of Civitavecchia, after half an hour I would arrive in Cagliari pushed by my turbine balls [cf.. WHO].

.

And threatens who from God have had the grace to have two balls, fundamental and indispensable prerequisite for the ministerial priesthood, if necessary, they must know how to turn them, especially in the face of the colossal nonsense of certain bishops who have long competed with each other to see who commits the biggest bullshit, which the Holy See then oversees, provided that certain prelates speak in an obsessive-compulsive way of the poor and migrants.

.

There is no need to go back to the times of Blessed Pontiff Pius IX nor to those of the Supreme Pontiff Leo XIII or of the Holy Pontiff Pius X, the much more recent Holy Pontiff John Paul II would have been enough, because he would have flogged this bishop with his own hand.

.
I have nothing to add, if not my most devoted regards to the President of the Italian Episcopal Conference and the Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, waiting for the now customary press release: «… the Bishop was misunderstood ". Although certain episcopal releases are not new, a confrere from Arezzo - still pissed off for this reason - told us that already in 2019 their Bishop was the guest of honor for the feast of the 150 years of the historic local Masonic Lodge [cf.. WHO].

.

We entrust the comment of this event to Roberto de Mattei, President of the Lepanto Foundation in Rome.
