HAPPY AND EVEN HONORED TO WORK FOR FREE, BUT WE TRY NOT TO EXAGERATE …

“Do you not know that those who perform sacred service eat what is offered in the temple? And that those who wait at the altar have a part in the altar? Similarly, the Lord has ordered that those who proclaim the Gospel live from the Gospel" [The Cor 9, 13-14].

Dear Readers,

The magazine The Island of Patmos will complete 10 years of journalistic and editorial activity in October of 2024. When we started our business, there were several who gave us less than a year to live. The result was that we moved forward with an ever-increasing number, surpassing in 2022 the two hundred million visitors in 8 year old.

In 2018 we also opened the Edizioni The Island of Patmos, whose books continue to sell well in a market made up of a niche audience, certainly not from those much more numerous "Catholics" who become cultured by jumping from one blog to another where they feed on “prophecies” e “revelations”, or whatever Facebook they ask you to explain to them in four lines the Prologue of the Gospel of John and the incarnation of the Word of God, because on a ufology site run by an anonymous person they read that Jesus Christ was an alien.

We never asked for anything, we just limited ourselves to inserting the link to the convenient and secure account PayPal and the number of our current account at BPM in Rome, certain that those who wanted to support our work would do so without needing to be solicited to do so.

At the end of summer we have to pay the dedicated-server and the various annual subscriptions for a total amount of 5.800 Euro. What we currently have in our account PayPal and in the current account it is however a laughable sum:

 

_______________________________________________________

I consulted with the brothers and we decided to remember the Apostle's warning:

“Do you not know that those who perform sacred service eat what is offered in the temple? And that those who wait at the altar have a part in the altar? Similarly, the Lord has ordered that those who proclaim the Gospel live from the Gospel" [The Cor 9, 13-14].

Why hide the bitterness, especially when you have a generous temperament by nature? For this reason, I believe it is necessary to add some clarifications in the form of a question: some, or maybe many, they think that priests are lemons to be squeezed? Because the logic of the unspecified “Catholic” is the following: when he falls into need he turns to good priests, that he finds, because they are still there, perhaps less and less, but there are. But, if he has to put his hands in his pockets and contribute to the pastoral work of good priests, in this case start publishing on social media posts and photos of the worst that can be found among priests and that no one has ever denied exists and is there. Strange logic, you don't think so? When you have to take it from good priests, it is taken with both hands, but when the work of good priests needs to be supported, then you seal your wallet and go look for the worst that can be in the clergy, like everywhere, publishing cries and laments about social media in order to justify one's selfishness and greed.

For years I have dedicated myself to the apostolate with priests and from this privileged observatory I know and see first-hand cases of elderly and sick priests who, after a life dedicated to assisting and caring for the People of God, today find themselves in conditions of loneliness and abandonment, experiencing first of all the ingratitude of the numerous people to whom they have done good as long as they had the physical strength to do it. However, if you call the Catholic-so-called to his responsibilities towards priests, in response he publishes you on social media the photo of the priest celebrating the Holy Mass at the seaside in a bathing suit on the mattress, inserting the caption if anything: «… we should also finance these people?». He doesn't tell you, But, of the old and holy parish priest, today forgotten in a retirement home with the catheter attached to him, who saved his marriage and who convinced his wife not to abort a child who was then born and who grew up and became an adult and gave him the joy of becoming a grandfather. Some things aren't, those are not told either with photos or captions social media.

Among the various forms of ingratitude I confess that I was particularly struck by those people who, in addition to only having hands to take, believe that one should even demand from the priest, at the head of all those who have ended up in the circles of the various holy men and the various self-styled visionaries in close contact with the many speaking or crying Madonnas who reveal trembling catastrophic secrets to the various charlatans who go crazy in the square. And today, the people who fall into these networks, there are more and more. Until many of these deceived and plucked like chickens end up turning to us, than doing our duty, that is, the priests, shepherds care of souls, over the years we have helped and supported desperate people, deceived and betrayed, looking for appropriate and prudent solutions, not limiting ourselves to mere spiritual comfort but often trying to help them also through specialists or legal consultants we trust and know, who often helped them even for free, considering that the crying idiots had been reduced to chicken legs stripped of their flesh by the most voracious of the worst barkers.

Some of them happened to have sensitivity to pour 5 O 10 euros into our account to support our work, if anything after having given money to certain people for years? Of course not, the money is given without hesitation to those who say they talk to the Madonna, who boast psychic gifts, of foresight or healing, or that at a distance of 55 years after his death they present themselves as spiritual children of Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, to whom the Holy Capuchin, needless to say, revealed sensational things that they, in turn, they reveal only to a select few, obviously paying, of course!

I have always had a bad relationship with numbers, But, despite not knowing how to divide without a calculator, I also get to some elementary calculations: how they can, a man or woman not even sixty years old to have been the favorite spiritual children of this Holy Friar who died in 1968 and having received extraordinary confidences from him? Padre Pio of Pietrelcina perhaps went to take his spiritual children from nursery or nursery school to make them privileged custodians of his secrets?

My speaking is naked and raw? Yup, because this must be the case with all the bitterness of the case on the part of a priest who, together with his fellow editors, has spent time, energy, human and spiritual resources for many people, including those who, after having even had their underwear taken off by the worst charlatans, came to us crying for help. And they had help, immediate and without sparing any of ourselves, that we often stayed up late at night responding and taking care of their problems. But, in exchange, they didn't even offer us a coffee, this is what hurts, quite a lot of.

More than asking – something we have never done – I confide bitterness to you, which I believe has its own reason for being, let those who have benefited and continue to benefit from our hard work do the rest, while forgetting that "those who proclaim the Gospel live by the Gospel".

Silvio Berlusconi has died, man loved and hated, but an undoubted piece of the homeland history of Italy

SILVIO BERLUSCONI IS DEAD, MAN LOVED AND HATED, BUT UNDOUBTED PIECE OF THE HISTORY OF ITALY

Regardless of everyone's political positions and personal beliefs, the merit of courage and enterprise must be recognized to President Silvio Berlusconi, the merit of having worked intensely, we can say until the end, in the creation of his own company and in the creation of a political project that was able to intercept the interest and appreciation of millions of Italians.

Silvio Berlusconi died this morning at the San Raffaele hospital in Milan where he was hospitalized again last Friday 9 June, after a previous hospitalization due to pneumonia and myelomonocytic leukemia. The coffin was transported from the hospital to the villa in Arcore at 3:00 pm 12. Tomorrow the funeral chapel will be set up at the Mediaset headquarters in the studio 20 of Cologno Monzese. The funeral will take place on Wednesday in the Cathedral of Milan.

Regardless of political positions and each person's personal beliefs, the merit of courage and enterprise must be recognized to President Silvio Berlusconi, the merit of having worked intensely, we can say until the end, in the creation of his own company and in the creation of a political project that was able to intercept the interest and appreciation of millions of Italians.

His “descent into the field”, by borrowing one of his own expressions, in an Italy that was experiencing a profound political crisis linked to the effects of Tangentopoli and of Mafia bombs, with the consequent crisis of the three parties which, until then, they had led the political scene, had given new determination to the group of moderates who had been disappointed by the events of those years.

I believe that one of the great merits of President Berlusconi was that of never stooping to accusations and controversies against political opponents, to have always maintained a polite and respectful tone and to have contributed to making Italy one of the most important economic and political players at European and global level. We unite, so, to the prayer of suffrage for him and in closeness to his family.

NEW DESTINATION AND MINISTRY FOR OUR EDITOR FATHER IVAN LIGUORI

The Provincial Minister of the Capuchins of Sardinia has asked Father Ivano to accept a new assignment, however very delicate, as formator at the Convent of Sanluri where the house is located where aspirants to religious life are welcomed for their vocational discernment.

.
Our Capuchin editor Ivano Liguori is a cornerstone of our magazine, his precious collaboration began six years ago, at the time in which he carried out the ministry of chaplain at the Brotzu Hospital, large hospital in Cagliari, where years later he is always remembered together with his brother Giancarlo Pinna by the medical and paramedical staff, by former patients and their families who occasionally continue to send messages of esteem and gratitude to our editorial staff in his memory.
.
Great expert in health pastoral care and young man endowed with a rare humanity based on a solid faith and equally solid doctrine, Father Ivano knew how to see, in nine years of delicate hospital service, the suffering Christ in the sick (cf.. Mt 25, 35-44).
.
.
In September 2019 is sent to Laconi, in the province of Oristano, as guardian and parish priest at the convent with adjoining parish cared for by the Capuchin Friars Minor in the town of origin of Ignatius of Laconi, in a situation that is not exactly easy and with several problems to heal. From the beginning he dedicated himself with great dedication to the care of souls, taking care of the decorum of the sacred liturgy, always available with the confreres for confessions and spiritual directions, offering important formation meetings and cycles of catechesis, several of which are also published in video on these columns in the column Breakfast with Cappuccino, including a series of catecheses dedicated to the Sacrament of Penance, the confession. In the meantime he dedicated himself to his publicist activity on our magazine, that without him it would not be what it is today, signing over 100 articles of great breadth and profound pastoral and doctrinal depth, while giving the press two books: From the From Prozan to Prozac (2021) e The sign of Cain (2021).
.
.
Before leaving Laconi administered Holy Baptism to a beautiful little girl from 10 year old, visible sign of the fruits produced by his four years of pastoral activity carried out in that town.
.
.
The Provincial Minister of the Capuchins of Sardinia asked Father Ivano to accept a new assignment, however very delicate, as formator at the Convent of Sanluri where the house is located where aspirants to religious life are welcomed for their vocational discernment.
.
.
Also Father Giancarlo Pinna, with whom he shared many years of ministry at the large hospital in Cagliari and that in September 2019 it was also transferred to Laconi, leave that location, but not alone. In fact, the two brothers arrived in Laconi, taking with them the new convent Tac, the cat who for years lived in the chaplains' lodgings and who today lives serenely and happily in that religious house. This time Father Giancarlo will bring to his new destination a dachshund as affectionate as pimp.
.
.
In charge of taking care of the retirement home of Oristano where the sick Franciscan Tertiaries live, Father Giancarlo will arrive with the most therapeutic that can exist in that context for elderly and sick people: a ruffian dachshund. Ancient and pure Franciscan pedagogy.

The Eucharistic miracle that took place between the cities of Orvieto and Bolsena and the establishment of the Solemnity of Corpus Domini

/in /by

THE EUCHARISTIC MIRACLE THAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE CITIES OF ORVIETO AND BOLSENA AND THE INSTITUTION OF THE SOLEMNITY OF THE BODY OF THE LORD

Witness of the miracle of Bolsena, the Corporal of Orvieto is the "signature" of Jesus alive and true in the Eucharistic Bread, which sweeps away doubt and lets us penetrate those sacred mysteries which are reached through the reason of faith: Faith and Reason (faith and reason). Or as Saint Anselm of Aosta teaches: Faith seeking understanding (faith requires the intellect) which takes shape from the saying of Saint Augustine I believe in order to understand (I believe to understand).

The Solemnity of The body of the Lord see the cities of Orvieto e Bolsena united in a profound inseparable combination. Because it's true, the prodigious sign took place in Bolsena, but the "cradle" of the Solemnity from which it was then established for the whole Church remains and is Orvieto. Just as Jerusalem cannot do without Bethlehem, in fact, there would be no resurrection without first the nativity, in the same way the Feast of the Body and Blood of the Lord would not have been proclaimed without the prodigious event that gave rise to it.

Marco Nunzi and Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo, Chapel of the Sacred Corporal, Orvieto Cathedral

The history of facts we can summarize it like this: in the distant XIII century Peter, boemo priest, he was tormented by a doubt. He couldn't explain himself like during Holy Mass, through the transubstantiation, the bread and the wine could really change into the Body and Blood of Christ. Thus he undertook a long pilgrimage to Rome to pray at the tomb of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul in the hope of finding an answer to his excruciating torment. Once in Bolsena he decided to celebrate the Eucharistic Sacrifice on the tomb of the martyr Christine. During the Eucharistic canon, on the words of the consecration of the sacred species, in her trembling hands the Host visibly became true flesh that, dripping copiously alive blood, he implored the corporal and some stones from the altar.

For a mysterious design of Providence, in those times the Supreme Pontiff resided in Orvieto Urban IV, present in his residence in Orvieto during that miraculous event. As soon as the Pope learned of the miraculous event, he instructed the Bishop to go to nearby Bolsena to examine what had happened and bring the signs of the miracle to Orvieto. Went down to the foot of the Orvieto cliff to go to meet the Bishop, on seeing the sacred Corporal the Pope knelt down moved and, taken into his hands with great veneration this Holy linen, he returned in procession to the Church of Orvieto among the songs of the people in celebration.

Urban IV, many years before the Bolsena events and of his election as Supreme Pontiff, met in Liège, in Belgium, Juliana of Cornillon. The humble religious shared with him some revelations she had received from the Lord. These concerned the need to establish a new liturgical solemnity in honor of the Holy Eucharist, Admirable Sacrament of the Love of God and His Presence. Dad, mindful of Giuliana's confidences and with the eyes of the heart still fixed on the Precious Blood imprinted on the Corporal, it was decided to establish by the City of Orvieto, with the bubble Pass out of this world of 11 August 1264 the feast of Corpus Domini extended to the whole Universal Church.

The Pope also asked Thomas Aquinas, well-known Dominican theologian, he was also then resident in Orvieto, to draw up the Divine Office of the new Solemnity. Thus were born the texts of the five wonderful Eucharistic hymns: the Put lingua which ends with the well-known Only then, the lodge Sacred Solemnities, the Bread of Angels, the You will find the word from above e O saving victim, which are still part of the Liturgy of the Church today.

Concerning the writing of hymns, tradition hands down a particular episode: Thomas Aquinas, before presenting himself before Urban IV to propose the hymn Put lingua, he went to the church of the convent of Orvieto to pray in front of the Crucifix. Thomas asked the Lord to let him know his "opinion" on what had been written. The Crucifix answered simply: «You wrote well about me or Tommaso, what reward do you want? The great theologian replied: “Nothing but yourself, o Lord”».

What it means for us today to celebrate this great Solemnity? The immediate reminder is to go back to what Jesus did and said at that last supper. We contemplate his gesture: He took some bread and said “this is me, take and eat."

A sign, the bread, which represents his life, what was his whole life: Donated bread, life given, not even a crumb of this life, not even an instant of his time did Jesus keep for himself, it was all a gift to the brothers. What does Jesus say to us when he declares “this is me, take and eat” that is, assimilate this life proposal that was mine. Eating that bread means "you welcome me into your life and by welcoming me you welcome the logic of Love that leads to the construction of a new world." Because every disciple who eats this Bread is willing to be completely bread of life for others as Jesus was and continues to be through us.

Witness of the miracle of Bolsena, the Corporal of Orvieto it is the "signature" of Jesus alive and true in the Eucharistic Bread, which sweeps away doubt and lets us penetrate those sacred mysteries which are reached through the reason of faith: Faith and Reason (faith and reason). Or as it teaches Sant'Anselmo d'Aosta: Faith seeking understanding (faith requires the intellect) which takes shape from the saying of St. Augustine I believe in order to understand (I believe to understand).

Soon we will have Pietro Pacciani President of the Supreme Court of Cassation assisted by Bombolo, Alvaro Vitali and Er Monnezza

SHORTLY WE WILL HAVE PIETRO PACCIANI PRESIDENT OF THE SUPREME COURT OF CASSATION ASSISTED BY BOMBOLO, ALVARO VITALI AND ER RUBBISH

Cardinal Kevin Joseph Farrell was appointed President of the Supreme Cassation of the Vatican City State, the equivalent Supreme Court of Cassation of the Italian Republic. This prelate is a creature created by the Archbishop of Washington Cardinal Theodore McCarrick than in 2018 he was found guilty of continued sexual harassment and abuse, enough to be hit in the 2019 with the most extreme canonical penalty: dismissal from the clerical state, imposed with sentence of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith which recognized him guilty of sERIOUS oFFENSES for abusing adult men and young priests over several decades [cf.. decree of the Holy See].

The current President of the Supreme Court, in addition to never having received any legal training, at the time he was insistently proposed and wanted as his own auxiliary bishop in the 2001 by Cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

With the then Archbishop of Washington he lived for six years in a communal flat, obviously - it goes without saying - without ever realizing the circle that he had and the kind of life he led, despite living in close contact with him under the same roof. Something that raised the perplexities of the President Emeritus of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura at the time, Cardinal Leo Raymond Burke, than in 2018 he declared:

"Of course, given his obvious closeness to McCarrick, it is unlikely that Farrell knew nothing of his gravely sinful acts." [cf.. WHO].

In short: the person with the pedigree more suitable to be appointed president of the Cassation of the Vatican City State, flanked by three judges chosen and appointed by the Supreme Pontiff, Cardinals Matteo Maria Zuppi, Augusto Paolo Lojudice and Mauro Gambetti, also totally devoid of legal training, who have been careful not to refuse the assignment, perhaps because they are convinced that this pontificate will be eternal and that in the Church one of those settlements of accounts as never seen before in history will open?

unbelievable stuff …

The Cardinal Kevin Joseph Farrell he obtained his primary degree, or basic title, in philosophy and theology at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas [Holy See: official biography].

Cardinal Matteo Maria Zuppi he also obtained the basic title of theological baccalaureate and has extensive experience in the field of "popular schools for marginalized children in the Roman slums, initiatives for lonely and non self-sufficient elderly people, for immigrants and the homeless, the terminally ill and the nomads, the disabled and drug addicts, prisoners and victims of conflicts" [Holy See: official biography].

Cardinal Augusto Paolo Lojudice, former Auxiliary Bishop of Rome and currently Metropolitan Archbishop of Siena-Colle Val d'Elsa-Montalcino he is licensed in fundamental theology [Holy See: official biography].

Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, mechanical engineering graduate, he is licensed in anthropological theology [Holy See: official biography].

None of these cardinals never studied law and all, from the President of the Cassation to the Judges are completely devoid of training and legal culture.

For the spirit of emulation the Italian government is seriously thinking of appointing Pietro Pacciani president of the Supreme Court of Cassation assisted by cylinder, Alvaro Vitali and by Tomas Milian said Is Monnezza.

As Greek wisdom teaches, it is known that after tragedy always comes the grotesque farce.

The Rainbow Trojan Horse of Perfect Catholics, Sora Maria closed for homophobia due to the grattachecca and the foeniculum at the fruit and vegetable market instead of the outlawed fennel

THE RAINBOW TROJAN HORSE OF THE PERFECT CATHOLICS, SORA MARIA CLOSED FOR HOMOPHOBIA BECAUSE OF SCRATCHY AND THE THE FOENICUM AT THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLE MARKET INSTEAD OF FENNEL OUTLAW

Many among us belong to the so-called generation young paulist, many of us later became priests struck by that call launched by the Holy Pontiff John Paul II at a time when we were just teenagers: "… do not be afraid, open: open wide the doors to Christ and his saving power!». And to open up to Christ and make him reign in his Church, if necessary, it is necessary to forcefully bar the doors to the gay rainbow Trojan horses that claim the "sacrosanct right" to sin.

Faced with the bankruptcy of the Ddl Zan Father Ivano Liguori and I published an essay in November of 2021 titled From Prozan to Prozac. A book that has not lost its relevance, if anything, he bought it, like our other works where the authors have looked to the future without letting themselves be trapped by the social emotions of the present and analyzing certain bankruptcy tendencies in the making.

This book was dedicated to the memory of the great theater actor Paolo Poli, of which we reported on the back cover a very strong mouthful expression. Phrase that constitutes the paradigm of those subjects who feel like perfect rainbow Catholics and who as such cannot remain silent, to the point of claiming the right to have the hen, the egg and the hot ass, how does this go wise saying of Emilia-Romagna popular wisdom (An s’pol brisa aver galina, ov is a hot ass).

 

Concerning certain perfect Catholics rainbows that cannot be silent Paolo Poli commented:

«I see a lot of homologation, a flattening of one's individuality;, even in appearing: all dressed alike in a pseudo-masculine stereotype, logically straight […] Gays may have the chance; to express their own uniqueness; and diversity; in the strongest sense; true of the term. But no, they want to play husband and wife and have the Pope's permission to fuck each other! Come on! Never mind" (Paolo Poli, interview of 17 December 2003)

That is the question, depicted twenty years ago in a plastic way by this artist who he was horrified from the Gay Pride parades and that he made habitual use of terms such as «fags … fags … fags … fagots … queers …», therefore a very dangerous homophobe disguised as one of the greatest and most famous homosexual artists of the twentieth century.

Today we viewers of various dangerous imbalances linked to the violent denial of a Christological concept which is the foundation of our Christianity: the task of the Church is not to flirt with the trends of the world, but to fight them. It is therefore creepy and dangerous that around the Dioceses of Italy they are multiplying meetings and prayer vigils against so-called homophobia under the banner of political correctness. On the posters announcing these initiatives there is an ostentation of acronyms that make various references to "LGBT Catholics" or groups of "Catholic homosexuals" [see WHO, WHO, WHO, etc …].

 

Let's clarify: it is not a matter of being neither rigorous nor intransigent, because if a Catholic is such or wishes to be, cannot claim the right to practice homosexuality and to form LGBT associations of Catholics, because committing sins is part of full human freedom. However, it should be clarified that the sin committed - although permitted by God by virtue of the freedom and free will given to man - is not a right. And among the various serious sins, sodomy still remains a sin that cries out to heaven [See. Catechism NN. 2357-2359]. Then, that there is no sin greater than the grace and mercy of God, this is a foundation of our faith. At issue, however, are neither grace nor forgiveness, but that certain unspecified "LGBT Catholics" or "homosexual Catholics" are now claiming, in established and organized groups, the right to exercise a sexuality that is in total contrast to all the principles of Catholic morality. But it gets worse: these groups, far from seeking God's grace and forgiveness, they are infiltrating our ecclesial structures, diocesan and parish churches to claim on the one hand the "right" to sin, on the other to explain that in concrete facts they are not the ones who are wrong, but the Church. And this is unacceptable, because the Church of Christ, mother and teacher, in matters of doctrine and faith he is not wrong, because it enjoys a special assistance of the Holy Spirit sent by Christ God at Pentecost, who rules and governs it.

We are faced with a gay rainbow trojan horse let many of our bishops enter the Holy City in a villainous way, with all the devastating consequences that will soon ensue. The bishops who, in order not to have problems of unpopularity, are supporting or tolerating this invasion, they are enveloped in grave confusion about our precise foundation: the Church rejects sin but always welcomes the sinner, especially the worst sinners. If she didn't, she would betray in the worst way the mission that Christ God has entrusted to her. Precisely in this, however, lies the confusion and bewilderment, I've been saying and explaining it for years, but I never tire of repeating it: today we run the risk of no longer welcoming the sinner - which I repeat must always be welcomed ―, but institutionalized sin, up to fearful genuflect under the banner of political correctness before the various LGBT groups who claim a strange idea of ​​catholicity, up to demanding that the Church declare that evil is not evil but good. Even worse: accusing of homophobia those who indicate evil and sin as such, organizing for this purpose even prayer meetings to ask God for the conversion of the poor homophobes who indicate sodomy as a vile sin, refusing how "wonderful" it is for two males to mate, declaring they do it out of pure love and feeling precisely for this reason with their eccentric "Catholic" conscience in perfect order.

I already raised this question years ago: when a couple of lesbians who have manufactured a child with artificial insemination, or when a gay couple who bought it from a rented uterus show up to ask for Holy Baptism for their baby, our prudent and farsighted bishops, how they intend to act and react? You want me to describe certain scenes beforehand? Soon done: on similar ominous occasions we will meet in the churches all the elite of the LGBT lobbies, to whom nothing will affect the baptism, because their purpose will be only to demonstrate, through the public profanation of a Sacrament, who bent the Church of Christ to their perverted whims. Or we want to deny how perverse and inhuman it is in itself that certain couples "manufacture" children? And in front of a lesbian couple, or a couple of proud and proud sodomite men, which priest will have the courage to welcome these subjects as parents and then make them pronounce the baptismal promises? How can you ask them to answer: «You renounce Satan ... and all his works ... and all his seductions?». Some really think they are asking Satan to give up on himself? Why are two homosexuals who "married" and then "bought" a child from a rented uterus and who, declaring themselves "parents", lead him to be baptized for the sole purpose of bending the Church to their diabolical whims, I am Satan himself mocking a Sacrament of grace, to which one would go to ask in concrete facts: Satan, promise to give up on yourself?

In cases of this kind, perhaps the Catholic "by chance" or the Catholic "so to speak" ready to thunder that the creature, regardless of who submits it, she is not guilty and must in any case be baptized to be freed from original sin? I fear that the Catholic "by chance" or the Catholic "so to speak" will miss this theological fact: the ordinary means of salvation exist, that is, the Sacraments given to us by God and administered through the ministry of the Church, to follow the extraordinary means of salvation, which are those exercised by God, beyond the sacraments and regardless of the sacraments themselves, which God has no need to save souls, which he can redeem when and how he wants, without having to ask permission from Catholic doctrine or morals, much less to perfect Catholics, because He can derogate by choosing other ways, please ask for.

So it will be good to deny decisively and categorically the Sacrament of Baptism to the children of these couples whom the Church cannot accept as parents, as models and as educators to the Christian life, as perverse and perverted. If then the creature, reached the age of reason, she will freely ask for Baptism herself, in that case we will have a great celebration by having it administered directly by the bishop during the Holy Easter Vigil. But the Church cannot bend to the whims of the devil, never and in any case.

Always in our house then we have another category of perfect Catholics: those who support homosexuality sadly widespread even among priests, many of whom have brought this plague within our clergy, constituting the one that in my book of 12 Years ago, And Satan became triune, I indicated with profound analysis and ahead of its time as an ecclesiastical gay lobby. A lobby now very powerful, influential and quite harmful.

Seriously wrong, some might think that the many gay priests who pollute the clergy are protected by the so-called progressive fringes, but it is not so. Supporting them are mostly those perfect Catholics intoxicated by baroque lace and masquerading as conservatives with an excited gaze towards traditionalists, ready to make fun of a bishop who wears a miter that is not of their aesthetic taste, to then yell a little later at the homophobe towards anyone who dares to speak of the scourge of homosexual priests, that within the Church they should not have citizenship, because a practicing homosexual priest constitutes the worst profanation of the Catholic priesthood. Above all, when certain gay ecclesiastic queers reach government roles, can do enormous damage, produce terrible injustices and hit worthy and holy priests unwilling to bow to the whims and moods of certain gay clerical despots in power.

These perfect new Catholics have now given themselves to the public hunt for the homophobe, they see homophobes everywhere. With sometimes even ridiculous and grotesque results. Here are two different examples: days ago, in Rome, I passed through Via Trionfale and to my amazement I discovered that the hut of the legendary Sora Maria who produced and offered the Romans the scratchy from far away 1933, is closed. It seems that poor Sora Maria is currently on trial for having offended the LGBT community with her scratchy, complete with a cheerful and fierce radical association for the defense of unspecified rights that even filed a civil party in the trial. But it gets worse. Wandering among the stalls of the fruit and vegetable market in Campo dei Fiori, I noticed that Sor Ernesto had written the name and price of a vegetable on a crate: «Phoenix 4 euros per kilo». I approach him and tell him: «’a Sor Ernè, what are you doing pija perculo? You didn't even take middle school and now you even became a Latinist?». Sor Ernesto was scared to death, he invited me to speak in a low voice, then, pulling me aside, he whispered that some time ago a complaint was filed with the Public Prosecutor's Office in Rome by an LGBT association because the word "fennel" was a homophobic term and should no longer be used in the fruit and vegetable market. Even in this case, the same gay and fierce radical association for the defense of unspecified rights had also filed as a civil party in that trial.

Many among us belong to the so-called generation young paulist, many of us later became priests struck by that call launched by the Holy Pontiff John Paul II at a time when we were just teenagers: "… do not be afraid, open: open wide the doors to Christ and his saving power!». And to open up to Christ and make him reign in his Church, if necessary, it is necessary to forcefully bar the doors to the gay rainbow Trojan horses that claim the "sacrosanct right" to sin.

We intend to remain indomitable Romans, free to be able to say itchy and fennel without fear, pace of perfect Catholics who massacre a bishop for a miter that is not to their taste, but which a few lines later bless the abomination of desolation: widespread homosexuality among the clergy, which in the Church can never and in any way be tolerated. Because the Church has always welcomed the sinner, especially the worst sinners, but it cannot and never will be able to bless sin, especially if the gay viperellas disguised as perfect Catholics who shoot at everything and everyone ask for it. While we, as experienced men that we are, as well as by true and real connoisseurs of that Roman curia that so excites the insane libido of certain aesthetic gays who really don't know it and for this reason they don't know how to analyze it at all, we stand on deck in brooding anticipation, knowing how many there were in number, especially the smarter ones, powerful and bad, that we have seen pass underneath dragged away by the water of the river. Imagine if we won't see even a silly little viperella pass by shortly.

The Sacrament of Marriage by Father Gabriele Giordano M. Scardocci in Santa Maria Novella in Florence. You are invited: we are waiting for you!

/in , /by

THE SACRAMENT OF MARRIAGE BY FATHER GABRIELE GIORDANO M. SCARDOCCI AT SANTA MARIA NOVELLA IN FLORENCE. YOU ARE INVITED: WE ARE WAITING FOR YOU!

We invite our Readers who are in Florence and its surroundings to participate in the appointment to celebrate the Sacrament of Marriage of Father Gabriele Giordano M. Scardocci the 17 May at hours 18:00 at the Convent of Santa Maria Novella in Florence.

- Editorial news -

Author:
Jorge Facio Lynx
President of Editions The island of Patmos

.

This publication of Father Gabriele Giordano M. Scardocci centered on the aspects of marriage in total of Aquinas has the merit of demonstrating how today the thought of this Holy Doctor of the Church has been perfected and improved, but not passed, at least at the moment.

In this present of ours history we should accept that we need more than ever to listen to those who came before us and who have left us the best of themselves to build the present in the making and for our future in progress, starting with two great giants such as St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas.

The main value of this text we can catch it "between" and "in" the lines, and it is above all that of the family testimony of Father Gabriel: the book opens with thanks to the family because it is only after receiving, observed and participated that one can meditate on something important such as the gift of marriage on which to then make a speculative investigation. This is the leitmotif of the whole book where the questions on topics so topical and at the same time so dry and driven to generate division and misunderstanding in today's society - such as the indissolubility of marriage - the author responds primarily as a son, then as a theologian, finally through the gift of the sacramental grace of the priesthood which he has received.

The main feature what stands out in this work is the use that Father Gabriel makes of the consolidated method of Aquinas: base speculation on what the Holy Fathers and doctors of the Church said by getting the best out of each of them before responding with their own words. Nothing can be built from scratch or from the imagination, it is built through the patrimony of wisdom left to us by these great Moral Authorities of the Church treasuring what they have left us.

The author starts by resuming the Summons against the Gentiles, the most philosophical work of Aquinas which presents a possibility not only of rediscovering or knowing today the work of Angelic Doctor, but it shows how the themes of marriage can be found through the exercise of reason in any man, society or culture, even in a primitive or very elementary form.

The author explains how the sexual one it is not only an act of procreation but an act in which man, like other animals, it must be present thereafter to satisfy all the needs of both human and female life (donna) that of children, therefore the emission of sperm is not a selfish act, it is not aimed at pleasure and that's it, or just for playback, but a first act that is perpetuated and updated in becoming as a couple and as a parent, later as fathers. This is contrary to the many couples who reproduce without ever having thought of being parents and therefore of being father and mother.

The notion of equality between men and women it was not a struggle of the last decades, one slogan elevated to a contemporary social pillar. Father Gabriele explains and demonstrates that the female is not just an object and a means of reproduction or embellishment of one's life in the manner of a trophy, but she must be a companion, therefore respected even when time begins to pass and the youthful aesthetic charm must leave room for other more genuine and delicate beauties that arise from human interiority and from the rush of life itself.

In conclusion the argument on the need for stability and security in human relationships ends up standing out in the work, which are not only the certainty and truthfulness of a feeling, but also an anthropological value necessary for man called to experience a profound meaning and fullness of his individual and social being.

We invite our Readers who are in and around Florence to participate in the appointment to celebrate the Sacrament of Marriage of Father Gabriele Giordano M. Scardocci the 17 May at hours 18:00 at the Convent of Santa Maria Novella in Florence.

«Bergoglio, heretic and apostate, blaspheme the Madonna". Word of a solar heretic with the obsession of Mary co-redemptrix who would ask for the proclamation of the fifth Marian dogma

/5 Comments/in /by

- Church news -

«BERGIGLIO, HERETIC AND APOSTATE, THE MADONNA BLASTS!». WORD OF A SOLAR HERETIC WITH THE OBSESSION OF MARY CORREDENTRICE WHO WOULD ASKS FOR THE PROCLAMATION OF THE FIFTH MARIAN DOGMA

Even Arius and Pelagius would blanch at such words: «Fatima can be considered for its prophetic effect, ecclesial, mystical, historical … we can call Fatima “private revelation”? I think not. Then it would be good to speak of "primary revelation", which is the word of God, the Holy Scripture, the tradition, and “secondary revelation” […]»

.

It youtuber most heretical of the solar system, Certainly Alessandro Minutella, former presbyter of the Archdiocese of Palermo, incurred excommunication for the crime of heresy and schism and finally hit by the extreme and rare measure of the dismissal from the clerical state, gave birth from 2017 to a mariolatric cult imbued with esotericism and millenarianism; cult that has nothing to do with the devotion always paid to the Blessed Virgin Mary by the universal Church, but not even with the popular faith of the simple often animated by that holy ignorance which will lead armies of people to earn the salvation of their souls with half a Ave Maria badly recited "in the hour of death". While instead to us, that we have been endowed with intellect, science and knowledge, much more will be required to merit the eternal salvation of our souls (cf.. LC 12, 48). Ours thunders in one of its daily live broadcasts:

“Modernists are smart, Fatima can be considered for its prophetic effect, ecclesial, mystical, historical … we can call Fatima “private revelation”? I think not. Then it would be good to speak of "primary revelation", which is the word of God, the Holy Scripture, the tradition, and “secondary revelation” […]» [cf.. video, WHO].

After this heretical statement which touches the very essence of Revelation - which is one and is linked solely to Christ God - what will the next step be, perhaps the inclusion of the Madonna in the Holy Trinity? but yet, sand we take the person concerned and in the face of this theologically delusional statement of his we ask him to account, in response we will be hit by a machine gun of sophisms. Or, if placed in front of the video document where he is speaking making these statements, he would not hesitate to reply that people misunderstood, that he didn't mean that but something else.

Obsessed with the idea of ​​“Mary co-redemptrix” [cf.. video WHO] (d)For years he has continued to launch violent accusations against the Supreme Pontiff Francis, manipulating and distorting historical data, writings and speeches. He's been doing that for years, deeply regrets that some of his followers blinded by his storytelling speeches do not really want to realize his castle of contradictions and falsehoods.

on the theological level and in the light of the Mystery of Revelation, there is no doubt that the Blessed Virgin contributed with her Divine Son to the redemption of humanity, but crucified as a sacrificial victim for the redemption of men, the Redeemer died, not the Madonna, who stood at the foot of the cross, on which she was not nailed, but Jesus Christ. Then, if we want to go to the deepest and most intimate substance, it would be enough to remember that Jesus Christ was not a creature, was God "begotten not created consubstantial with the Father" [See. the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed]. while Maria, however immaculate and preserved from original sin, he is a created creature, it is not God, much less generated not created of the same substance as the Father. And incidentally we recall that the Trinitarian God is worshiped in all three of his Most Holy Persons, while Mary is venerated. In the theological lexicon we usually speak of toilets, dulia e hyperdulia. With term toilets means the cult of adoration reserved only for God. With term dulia means the cult reserved to the Saints, which is worship of veneration and not of adoration. With term hyperdulia means the cult of high veneration reserved and due to the Immaculate Conception, the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mater Dei, which however remains a cult of veneration aimed at the most perfect of created creatures, which remains created creature.

Mariology is not something in itself, almost as if he lived an autonomous life: «Mariology is nothing more than an appendix of Christology and is inserted in a precise theological dimension of Christocentrism. If Mariology is somehow detached from this Christocentric centrality, You can run the serious risk of falling into marocentalism. If everything is filtered through the emotionality of the fideistic mold, In that case you can fall into the real Mariolatria, which is to say: pure paganism. A quel point, Maria, It could quietly assume the name of any goddess of the Greek Olympus or the Roman Pantheon ".

The most heretical youtuber in the solar system thus accuses the Supreme Pontiff Francis of having despised and mocked the “co-redemption” of Mary and to have defined — listen, hear! — the Marian dogmas of nonsense. And that's exactly what he says:

«[…] Bergoglio considers the Madonna an ordinary woman, one like all the others […] Bergoglio does not believe in Marian dogmas and has defined them as silly stuff (nonsense)».

Far from denying Marian dogmas as he attributes it to him youtuber most heretical of the solar system, indeed the Holy Father said these exact words:

“When they come to us with stories you should declare it [Maria] this, either make this other dogma or this, I say: let's not get lost in nonsense" [cf.. homily of 12 December 2019, full text, WHO].

It is again:

«Christ is the Mediator, the bridge we cross to address the Father. He is the only Redeemer: there are no co-redeemers with Christ, [Maria] as the Mother to whom Jesus has entrusted us, envelops us all; but as a mother, not as a goddess, not as a co-redemptrix: as Mother […] It is true that Christian piety always gives it beautiful titles, like a son to his mother: how many beautiful things a son says to the mother he loves! But let's be careful: the beautiful things that the Church and the Saints say about Mary take nothing away from the redemptive uniqueness of Christ. He is the only Redeemer. They are expressions of love like a son to his mother, sometimes exaggerated. But love, we know, it makes us do exaggerated things, but with love" [General audience the 24 March 2021, full text WHO].

Totally distorting the speeches as its use and style, from the 2019 accuses the Supreme Pontiff Francis of being an unbeliever who denies Marian dogmas, who has a Lutheran vision of Mariology and who despises the title of co-redemptrix that Our Lady herself would have insistently requested to be proclaimed by entrusting this message to the visionary Ida Peerdeman, to which the Blessed Virgin would have asked between the 1945 and the 1959 the proclamation of a fifth Marian dogma for Mary co-redeemer and mediatrix of all grace [cf.. video WHO].

«The false Church of the false Pope Bergoglio has caused the apparitions of Amsterdam to be denied […]. This Lady of all peoples who introduces herself “they will call me Lady” and who announces, anticipates the proclamation of the fifth Marian dogma [of Mary co-redemptrix] it's on his stomach, can't stand it. He can't stand Marian apparitions, of course. Fatima: went to Fatima and said “I prefer the Mary of the Gospels to this Madonna who appears and threatens punishment”. And the people who are unfortunately kept in ignorance by the priests did not understand that they were blaspheming […] Bergoglio is an excellent student of Freemasonry, at the highest levels. Bergoglio has this ability that comes to him from Satan: destroys his opponents [cf.. video WHO].

Psychiatry and the social sciences they teach us and demonstrate that the violent fanatic must first of all find an object on which to direct the hatred of the masses, using false news and totally manipulated data. The history of geopolitics has repeatedly shown, after the fall of certain regimes, how these had efficient and special offices, managed by excellent specialists, whose purpose was to manipulate data and information until creating a reality completely different from the objective one.

Of course it is youtuber most heretical in the entire solar system forget that the issue about the proclamation of the fifth Marian dogma of Mary co-redemptrix was not accepted, for theological-prudential questions, by all the Supreme Pontiffs in history, even by those particularly devoted to the Blessed Virgin, from Pius XII up to St. John Paul II who wanted the Marian emblem in his papal coat of arms and put his pontificate under his protection since the homily delivered in 1978 for the beginning of the Petrine ministry.

The Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI, whom this huckster defined for years as one of the greatest theologians of the twentieth century, already as Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith he explained several times that the term itself “Redemptrix” on the theological level it created objective problems with Christology.

The passionate Mariolatri fideists reply that some Supreme Pontiffs, for example Pius XI and Saint John Paul II, in some of their speeches they used this term. It's true, but they used this term to indicate in the precise context of the discourse that Mary had collaborated for our redemption, different from the definition of a dogma. Nor object, as total theology fasts do, but that precisely for this reason they presume to be able to dissect in the most delicate spheres of dogmatics:

«… But St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort in his Treatise on true devotion to Mary wrote that … but Our Lady of Amsterdam in a private revelation asked that … such a mystic, the seer said that in a private revelation Our Lady asked him that …».

Really someone is willing to believe that the Blessed Virgin Mary would ask to be proclaimed co-redemptrix with a fifth Marian dogma? Let's smile so as not to cry over what the Holy Father Francis rightly defined silly stuff (nonsense) which make some subjects quite arrogant and difficult to manage, precisely because their arrogance goes hand in hand with their ignorance.

Try to think: it is conceivable that the Blessed Virgin who defined herself as a humble servant, the woman of gifted love, silence and confidentiality, the one who has the purpose of leading to Christ, can truly ask seers or visionaries to be proclaimed co-redeemer and put almost on a par with the Divine Redeemer?

The very term of co-redemptrix is in and of itself in conflict with the essence of Christology and the mystery of redemption operated solely by God the Incarnate Word, which does not need co-redeemers and co-redeemers. The mystery of redemption is one with the mystery of the cross on which, as already mentioned earlier, he died as a sacrificed lamb God made man, not the Blessed Virgin Mary, that at the end of her life she fell asleep and was assumed into heaven, she did not die and rose again on the third day, defeating death. The Blessed Virgin, first creature of the whole creation above all the saints for its immaculate purity, he does not forgive our sins and does not redeem us, he intercedes for the remission of our sins and for our redemption. When we turn to her through prayer, both in the Ave Maria than in Hi Regina, of always, throughout the history and tradition of the Church, we invoke her saying "pray for us sinners", we do not ask her to forgive our sins or to save us. It is to the Trinitarian God that we ask "forgive us our debts", that is, forgive our sins, we do not ask Our Lady, who can intercede for the remission of our sins, but don't forgive them. When we recite the litany Lauretane, in the first part where the Father is invoked, the Son and the Holy Spirit, we respond to every invocation: "Have mercy on us", we respond to the invocations to the Blessed Virgin: "Pray for us". This alone should be enough to close an unthinkable discourse on the theological level such as that of Mary co-redemptrix.

That said, it needs to be clarified that many people wholesomely and holyly devoted to the Blessed Virgin, what they mean by the term co-redemptrix is ​​something exact, but expressed with a wrong word, which I understood while discussing with a very dear friend of mine whom I consider a true model of Marian devotion. In fact they mean that Mary cooperated in our redemption. A fact to which we can add: and he did it in a particular way and as no Saint could ever have done, because she alone is there Mater Dei. All with all due respect to the youtuber more heretical than the solar system which might even make us laugh, with its pseudo-theological and Mariological follies. But unfortunately, behind it is the disaster of souls that drags into error, something on which there is little to laugh about and much to cry instead.

When the Italian school does not claim its secularism: porn-actor in a high school in Turin

/1 Comment/in /by

- actuality -

WHEN THE ITALIAN SCHOOL DOES NOT CLAIM THEIR OWN LAICITY: PORN-ACTOR IN THE CHAIR IN A TURIN HIGH SCHOOL

The 22 April Max Felicitas was invited to the Alfieri high school in Turin, all during the week of self-management, giving the teens in our truly secular school precious pearls of wisdom about porn and revenge porn …

 

.

Dear Readers,

I'm a simple boy, a country boy, just think that I sign with the cross. Of course, this is not because I am a bishop — bishops put a cross in front of their name when they sign —, but because I'm illiterate. In fact, it's not me who writes, but another who writes for me under dictation.

My simplicity and my ignorance therefore they require me to ask the wise for guidance. And today, the the seat of wisdom, are the social media. You don't even need a computer, just a phone, before which the great National Library is of little use with all that it contains. On the contrary, I don't understand why they haven't built a mall or a big one yet fast-food.

Starting to have a certain age as well, therefore surely exposed to the first strokes of senile dementia, If I remember correctly, events of this kind that happened in the various Italian schools come to my mind:

1. Christmas time: Nativity scenes and Christmas carols prohibited in schools, Mohammedans might be disturbed by it;

2. the bishop of the diocese was prevented from visiting the school while he was on a pastoral visit in that area, because the school is secular;

3. prevented the parish priest from entering the school during the Easter blessing of families, because school belongs to everyone, especially the children of non-believers who could be traumatized for life by two drops of holy water;

4. Italian cardinal known as a distinguished scholar as well as a former academic invited by the committee of Catholic students for a keynote at the University, prevented and canceled because the collectives of the left have threatened loud protests “secularism, secularism!”;

etc … etc …

If senile dementia looming it doesn't confuse my memories, I seem to remember that at the La Sapienza University of Rome entry was barred to the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI who with a greeting would have upset, what am I saying: sacrilegious profanation of the dogma of secularism. It was of little use to recall that that university was founded and subsidized by the Roman Pontiffs and that its name - La Sapienza - derives from a liturgical antiphon from the Advent period which recites:

O Wisdom,
proceeding from the mouth of the Most High, reaching out,
reaching from end to end, strongly
gently arranging everything:
I came to teach us the way of prudence

O Wisdom,
that you came out of the mouth of the Most High,
coming from border to border, and forcefully
gently arranging everything:
come and teach us the way of prudence.

Happened to me too 2011, when I held a conference with Franco Cardini at the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy of La Sapienza in Rome. As I climbed the entrance staircase four brats said: "The university is secular". I replied: "Sure, so come and hear my lecture, because I will speak precisely of the value of secularism and the importance of the separation between Church and State".

The 22 April Max Felicitas was invited at the Alfieri high school in Turin, all during the week of self-management, donating to the teenagers of our truly secular school precious pearls of wisdom about porn and revenge porn. With him the sexologist Nada Loffredi and the lawyer Lorenzo Puglisi in a crowded courtroom, obviously very secular, rather secular, because porn is the most secular thing we can offer our boys [see WHO, WHO, WHO]

I am sure that if I will now state that this is authentic fucking secularism in the most realistic and harmful sense of the term, some kind soul “Cattolica” she will be shaken and disturbed to such an extent that she will rush to send her ritual email to my Bishop, complaining that I am a vulgar priest, or worse "a shame of a priest". I hope that holy man of my Bishop, who has never said a bad word in his entire life, having assessed the seriousness of the fact described above and of what I have dealt with, respond to certain bigots more troublesome than the mosquitoes of the swamps of the old Agro Pontino … "Stop, with your nonsense you have literally pissed me off!».

Long live the secular school!

«Digressions of a liberal priest». The new book by Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo in the name of politically incorrect, but above all of knowing the truth that will make us free

/in , /by

«DIGRESSION OF A LIBERAL PRIEST». THE NEW BOOK OF ARIEL S. LEVI di GUALDO IN THE NAME OF POLITICALLY INCORRECT, BUT ABOVE ALL OF KNOWING THE TRUTH THAT WILL SET US FREE

 

Better that certain facts and errors are highlighted by those who love and venerate the Church of Christ, instead of keeping quiet and waiting for his worst enemies to highlight them, accustomed to dealing with the truth with a completely different style and for very different purposes, otherwise those often irreparable disasters arise that end up imprinted on the pages of history to our perennial shame.

— Editorial news of the Editions The Island of Patmos —

Author:
Jorge Facio Lynx
President of Editions The island of Patmos

.

God is by definition liberal because he created freedom and gave it to man together with free will. Freely gave His only begotten son Jesus Christ, who invited every man to practice his own freedom, basing their relationships on respect for the principles of fraternity and equality. The Word of God has also given us a command: «Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's» by making a clear separation between the political and religious spheres many centuries before the birth of the Enlightenment, Liberalism and the French Revolution with the tragic entry into action of its guillotines after summary trials celebrated farcically in the name of liberty, fraternity, egalitarian.

This book can also be read as a constructive sneer addressed to those clericals - much more numerous among lay Catholics than they are among clergymen and theologians - unable to understand what faith is, while convinced that they possess the true faith and can teach it and pass it on to others. Faith is a gift that can only be accepted and fully developed by authentic liberals, able to exercise with Faith and Reason the freedom of the children of a God who is the greatest liberal in the history of humanity generated by him, before time and beyond time.

With rigorously conducted historical work and entirely based on the sources, the Author has also made a critical analysis on the pontificates of the Holy Pontiffs Paul VI and John Paul II, both lived in socio-cultural and geopolitical contexts of extreme and delicate complexity. Well clarifying that the Saints, to whom to be proclaimed such heroic virtues are required and not perfection, they have not been free from errors. For this reason their historical figures can only be protected through the truth of the facts, not with those clerical manipulations through which it is thought that the dust can be swept under the rugs. On the contrary, precisely because of their supreme protection it is better that certain facts and errors are brought to light by those who love and venerate the Church of Christ, instead of keeping quiet and waiting for his worst enemies to highlight them, accustomed to dealing with the truth with a completely different style and for very different purposes, while the fearful clericals prepare a lavish meal for the wolves affirming with the cynicism that characterizes them: «Who makes me go looking for problems with such dangerous analyses? Those who come after will take care of solving them, I prefer to live a quiet life and enjoy the beautiful ecclesiastical career that I have built". Yup, the devastating career of the three legendary monkeys: I do not see, I can not hear, I do not talk. And all the while the House of God burns and our enemies fabricate the worst black legends on shreds of truth. But those who come after will think about it.

Precisely from this way of thinking and acting which contains within itself the perverse, then arise those often irreparable disasters that end up imprinted on the pages of history to our perennial shame.
