such images should not disturb, because there is a great European of aspirin’Moderate Islam …
On a purely personal capacity, I would like to inform readers of’Patmos Island that tomorrow will celebrate a Holy Mass for the repose of the souls of four certainly already holy martyrs: the Little Sisters of the Poor of Beata Teresa of Calcutta, brutally murdered in Yemen 4 March 2016 by a group of Islamists [1], with them were killed volunteer contributors and elderly from their clients [cf. WHO].
.
Our good bishops, Ambrogio Spreafico head, responsible for ecumenism and inter-religious dialogue of the Italian Episcopal Conference, greetings certainly not turn to them fundamentalist Islamists, but the magical and dreamlike Moderate Islam, And I came or to write an article to which I refer: our bishops are appealing to the largest of aspirin’Moderate Islam [cf WHO], while their brothers bishops living in those regions, direct unnecessarily to all of them - as the Metropolitan Archbishop of Mosul, S. AND. Mons. Amel Nona - words of this kind:
.
the Metropolitan Archbishop of Mosul, S. AND. Mons. Amel Miss, inside one of the many Chaldean Catholic churches destroyed by fundamentalist Islamists
"I lost my diocese. The physical location of my ministry has been occupied by Islamic radicals who want converted or dead […] you think that men are all the same, but it is not true. Islam does not say that men are all the same. Your values are not their values. If you do not understand in time, become victims of the enemy that you welcomed into your home » [cf. WHO].
.
While with provocative elegance, His Beatitude the Patriarch of Antioch of the Maronites, Cardinal Bechara Pierre Raï, he asked:
.
Sua beatitudine it Patriarca Béchara Pierre Raï
"What say “moderate Islamists ” living in the West for what happens to our Christians in Mosul?» [cf. WHO]
.
L’Moderate Islam It is a figure of Islam that does not exist, invented by Europeans to exorcise their fears, deny the reality of the progressive Islamization of old Europe and escape the obvious fact: Islam is a structurally full of aggressive violence culture, encoded in its texts “sacred” and sealed in many Arab countries through the total lack of separation between political and religious power. Therefore, “the moderate Islamic“, It is comparable to any subject you proclaim “Catholic non-believer” O “Catholic atheist“, that is to say on the spot would cease to be Catholic, just like “the moderate Islamic“, which as such it would cease on the spot to be Muslim.

Diary of persecution
The fleeing Mosul, salvation in Kurdistan. Among the Iraqi refugees in Erbil, the story of Bishop. Cavina, bishop embedded: "The world does not know this martyrdom"
These people "are grateful for all that you receive help and grateful to God for having saved their lives. But even more for having kept the faith for which they were willing to give up everything rather than lose the true treasure of life which is Christ and their belonging to his Mystical Body, which is the church ". (There is need.) Luca 10, 42
because of being Muslim or rather Muslim
Dear brother, do not believe that things are different or better elsewhere, because the problem is there and it is serious, very much …
I'll tell you this story: in my town there is an old and prestigious private school also equalized, that a couple of centuries ago and is run by a congregation of nuns it was opened. E’ a Catholic school, but also, as above I said, a school of a certain prestige.
Two Muslim families, from Egypt, that deal in precious trade, import-export and also quite rich, They have asked for the inclusion of 5 children.
the sisters, with due respect, They responded that theirs is a Catholic school. But right hand, they did replicate that school, although private and Catholic, if, however, it receives funding from the state, can not deny enrollment to children because Muslims, because this is equivalent to the use of state money to make discrimination …
No sooner said than done, again intervenes ecumenist Bishop and interreligious, and the children are enrolled.
This what happened months later …
1. the children (8/10 year old), They demanded breaks during class to make prayers;
2. They refused the lessons on the teaching of the Catholic religion;
3. They demanded that the canteen of the school would provide them food suitable for them;
4. they wanted a weekly day of celebration and wanted to respect Ramadan.
Then they intervened parents, who complained that the images in that school, They disturbed their children, and night had nightmares because of the crucifix.
the sisters, But, I am not like priests, and in mid-school year, without saying anything to interreligious and ecumenist Bishop, expelled the five small agitators, returning the money of the entry fee and the money paid the monthly fees, and when the bishop tried to reproach her for doing their present serious damage, nothing went to his entire diocese, the sisters replied that it was proven that the children came from totally non-observant families, in which not only they did not even know Islamic prayers, but in which they drank alcohol, you ate pork, They not respected the fundamental laws of Islam, but he is purporting to impose in a Catholic school, even they did that in a jewelry store personally run by some parents of these children, were sold without problem those crucifixes and images that so disturbed their children, including valuable Byzantine icons and high cost, etc …
The bishop replied from Rome the Superior General of the congregation with a short and laconic message: “we have no problem to close the school, then she will explain, to the faithful of his diocese, the reasons for which we have closed after almost two hundred years of activity”.
All the nuns were right, Catholics and non-Catholics and, the only one who showed dissent, it was only the bishop, refusing to understand the danger of the Trojan Horse policy … refusing to understand what lies ahead, Today with bells that create noise pollution, tomorrow with the children of Muslims enrolled in Catholic schools within which to apply the Sharia law that does not apply to their home …
I thank the Father Ariel, and it noted that the sisters of Mother Teresa died with her apron, serving …
Al Pastor Emiliano I would say that perhaps it is useless to take rush.
We are between a rock of Masons in power around the world, in the fiction of representative democracy without subsidiarity https://lafilosofiadellatav.wordpress.com/2016/04/03/amoris-laetitia-e-la-ruvida-realta/, which it is oligarchy practice, and Islam's hammer. Since this is a wave that comes from afar, the French Revolution and even before, Enlightenment and the Renaissance, There is certainly a mysterious design of Providence that – for reasons that we can not see – allows our suffering today.
So, rather than take head wave, which makes us flying who knows where, perhaps it is better to bend – but always with dignity – like rattan.
In particular, If you are not a mayor who is now obliged to celebrate a gay marriage, much more thorny situation in your, if your Bishop tells you not to ring more bells, I would say that maybe it's better if you shut up and obey, and must continue your ministry in the best, in humility and silence. Christ never fails to Justice …
Rev.Don Emiliano,
Don Emi: rider, cry, to pray, one and the other, first of all the third: and we all pray with you.
Paraphrasing Guareschi – It serves one of those made even today!
– Don Emi, because so much pessimism? Then my sacrifice would be useless? My mission among men would then failed .. "
– "Man, if this is what will happen, What can we do?»
The Christ smiled.
– "We must save the seed: faith. Don Emi, We have to help those who still have the faith to keep it intact. The spiritual desert stretches every day; every day new souls wither…»
– "Lord"
He asked Don Emi:
– "Perhaps you want to say that the devil has become so cunning that it sometimes manages to disguise himself even as a priest?»
– "Don Emi!”
I'll try again smiling Christ
– "You want to put in new trouble?»
Don Emi pray, faithful to the promise made to Christ when “Your” Call answered ECCOMI, Also pray for the Bishop who wants to avoid trouble. And yet stories of those facts: the invocation "Santa Maria aid»,the feast of 7 October Queen Victoria (Help of Christians) and the Rosary, and sounds the bells …
Dear Father Ariel.
See now if you guys or cry.
In our part, the legendary don Camillo of Giovannino Guareschi, to disrupt the speech of the mayor Peppone, He sounded the bells, then it all ended for good, between the two species.
Today, in my Emilia, things are a bit’ change …
Not far from my previous parish located in a suburb, live several Muslim families, most of them North Africans.
One time (but I say, those who do it to me!), Sunday during a homily explained the meaning of the sound of bells at midday …
“… the 7 October of 1571 the Christian fleet at Lepanto waters inflicted a decisive defeat on the Turkish. And so it was that the Holy Pontiff Pius V, not disposing of today's means of communication in real time, She ordered him to ring the bells of Rome, inviting the faithful to thank God for the victory obtained by the intercession of the Blessed Vergine Maria …”.
A week later by 11 Muslim families a complaint against the responsible parish of noise through the sound of bells … sound that disturbed their rest and that scared their children, that much of what had complained …
eh, who will never let you down! (eh, these children that they never shut up!).
even presented the certificate of a psychologist testified that the trauma suffered by the creatures because of the bells … creatures but did not quite traumatized when their fathers sent one month and one month off their moms to the emergency room, forever and the penalty falls on the stairs, or with heads beaten in the dark on home closets, etc ..
I was ready to do battle, but I was stopped by the sound, This time the phone. It was the bishop, which knew the fact, mi said: “not just ring the bells, I do not want wars in the diocese, and especially today”. And he added, leaving the sentence suspended: “… then you know, Pope francesco …”
I said to the bishop: “soon it's Easter, if he wants, I'm going to ask around in the houses of the Muslims if there are 12 men, but also women, they are willing to be wash and kiss the feet of a priest, if anything, as their sign of forgiveness required for the unjust victory of the Battle of Lepanto by Christian infidels”.
The bishop did not answer me, He threw down the phone. But even he dashed off a letter, reached me a month later, in which he informed me my transfer to another parish.
We pray Father Ariel … let's pray!
A Pastor Emiliano
