… to the God who cheers my youth

19 June 2026/in Briefs of the Fathers/by father ariel

… TO THE GOD WHO CHEERS MY YOUTH

A youth that never fades, because the ministerial priesthood of Christ which has marked and ontologically transformed us makes it eternal.

— The Briefs of the Fathers of The Isle of Patmos —

Remaining prisoners of memories of the past is always dangerous. Living backwards is often the condition of those who are unable to live in the present. Those who live life from the perspective of faith know that they are not only on a journey towards the future, but projected towards eternity.

It may happen that you find it in an almost forgotten box some object or some image that marked a season of one's life. When this photograph of mine reemerged from the past I did not feel that nostalgia that belongs to what is lost and does not return, but rather tenderness and gratitude. So much so that the phrase contained in the opening verse of the Psalm came to mind 42 (43), with which the priest, at the foot of the altar, began the Holy Mass in the rite preceding the liturgical reform of the Holy Pontiff Paul VI:

«Introibo altar Gods, to God who makes my youth happy» (I will approach the altar of God, to God who cheers my youth").

I thank God, together with the Brothers of this happy Island of Patmos of ours, for giving us a youth that never fades. Not that of the body, that time inevitably transforms, but that contained in the ministerial priesthood of Christ which has marked and ontologically transformed us. A youth that no passage of years can consume, because it has its roots in the very eternity of God. Because of this, every time we approach the altar of the Lord, we can keep repeating within ourselves, with the same truth and with the same joy, the words of the Psalmist: Introibo altar Gods, to God who makes my youth happy.

THE GENIUS OF VAURO: THE ISREAEL-PALESTINIAN TRAGEDY ALL IN ONE CARTOON

To the question: what genius consists of? We could respond in various ways: Brilliant is the one who manages to express everything with a single brushstroke: a phrase, an image, in this case an apparently satirical cartoon.

– © Il Fatto Quotidiano –

The author is Vauro Senesi, historic newspaper cartoonist The Manifesto, where he worked for many years alongside editorialists of great cultural and political importance such as Luigi Pintor and Rossana Rossanda. Eras now gone, When, despite all the differences involved, sometimes even abysmal, the highest level cultural pages could be read on The Manifesto, The Unity, The Osservatore Romano e La Civiltà Cattolica.

His friend Vauro Senesi witnessed that great season, passed, but remained indelible in the history of the country.

COMEDY IN THE TIME OF ADVENT. BUT GOOD FOR ALL TIMES

«The Holy See will not remain silent in the face of serious disparities, to injustices and violations of fundamental human rights in our human and global community, increasingly fragmented and prone to conflict" (S.S. Leone XIV, text WHO)».

The list of serious disparities, of injustices, violations of fundamental rights, in particular, the violation of human rights that takes place directly "in the home" of the Supreme Pontiff, without anyone stopping you - on the contrary: they also get offended and become even more violent towards anyone who dares to ask for them to stop -, they are longer than litany Lauretane. Because ultimately we are and remain the same as always: ready on the one hand to defend in the public square the dignity of the last of the illegal Muslim immigrants landed on the Italian coasts, or even the dignity of embryos, and then beat the faithful servants of the Church inside the clerical rooms when the world's cameras are turned off.

But then it is known: the ecclesiastical world is the only place on Earth where reality has decided to disguise itself as a permanent allegory: a theater of power in which the martyrs act against the light and the sinners go on stage with bright lights in liturgical costume rather than that of clown.

But let's not fear: in the appearances in liturgical dress the Lord does not look for miracles; in his martyrs against the light, instead, always recognizes the Church that He founded.

COMEDY IN ADVENT. BUT SUITABLE FOR ALL SEASONS

«The Holy See will not remain silent in the face of the grave disparities, injustices, and violations of fundamental human rights within our increasingly fragmented and conflict-prone human and global community» (H.H. Leo XIV, text HERE).

The list of grave disparities, injustices, and violations of fundamental rights — in particular the violation of human rights committed directly “within the household” of the Supreme Pontiff, without anyone putting a stop to them (indeed: they even take offence and become still more aggressive toward those who dare ask that they cease) — is longer than the Litany of Loreto. Because, in the end, we are and remain what we have always been: ready, on the one hand, to defend in the public square the dignity of the last Muslim clandestine migrant landed on Italian shores, or even the dignity of embryos, only then to beat the faithful servants of the Church inside clerical chambers when the world’s cameras are turned off.

But then again, it is well known: the ecclesiastical world is the only place on earth where reality has chosen to disguise itself as a permanent allegory — a theatre of power in which the martyrs perform in backlight and the sinners step onto the stage under full lights wearing liturgical vestments instead of clown costumes.

But let us not be afraid: in those who merely appear in liturgical attire the Lord does not seek miracles; yet in His backlit martyrs He always recognises the Church He Himself founded.

Why, in the background, we are and continue to be the same as always: capable, on the one hand, to defend in the public square the dignity of the last Muslim clandestine to reach the Italian coasts, and even the dignity of embryos, and then beat the faithful servants of the Church in the clerical halls when the cameras of the world are no longer looking.

But, besides, it is well known: The ecclesiastical world is the only place in the world where reality has decided to disguise itself as a permanent allegory — a theater of power in which martyrs perform against the light and sinners appear on stage with the lights at full brightness., dressed in liturgical vestments instead of clown costumes.

But let us not fear: In the troupes dressed in liturgical habits the Lord does not look for miracles; in its martyrs in backlight, instead, always recognize his Church.

Andrea Cionci and the epilogue of the painful lie from which he no longer knows how to escape

15 November 2025/in Briefs of the Fathers/by Drafting

ANDREA CIONCI AND THE EPILOGUE OF THE PAINFUL LIE FROM WHICH HE NO LONGER KNOWS HOW TO GET OUT OF

He has vilified the Supreme Pontiff Francis for years, calling him "invalidly elected", "antipope", «false pope», «usurper of the throne of Peter», "heretic", "Apostate", "evil Bergoglio" ... then continuing to argue that we don't know if the current reigning Pontiff is truly valid. Even though he feels legitimate - without human penalty of ridicule - to present even phantom complaints to the judicial offices of His Holiness.

– The briefs of the Fathers of the Isle of Patmos –

Author
Editors of The Island of Patmos

.

The Fathers of the Island of Patmos take note that following an article by our Hermit Monk (cf.. WHO), Mr. Andrea Cionci, opera singer, but today a great expert in canon law, in one of his videos from November 11th he accused the editor of this magazine of being a self-styled priest and self-styled theologian. To these insults, not exactly mild, he adds that he has filed a complaint against him at the office of the Promoter of Justice of the Vatican City State (cf.. WHO).

It is worth remembering that Mr. Cionci has vilified the Supreme Pontiff Francis for years, calling him "invalidly elected", "antipope", «false pope», «usurper of the throne of Peter», "heretic", "Apostate", "evil Bergoglio" ... then continuing to argue that we don't know if the current reigning Pontiff is truly valid. Even though he feels legitimate - without human penalty of ridicule - to present even phantom complaints to the judicial offices of His Holiness; offices responsible for issuing sentences of acquittal or condemnation in the name of the validly elected Roman Pontiff, as well as succeeded by an equally valid Predecessor.

The logical question is therefore rigor: is it not perhaps the judicial offices of the Roman Pontiff himself about which Mr. Cionci is saying around that we don't know if it is valid, given the disability of the Predecessor, publicly vilified by him as a "heretic" and "apostate"? Isn't it perhaps he himself who maintains in articles and conferences that if a pontiff is invalid they are invalid that fact e ipso jure all his acts?

Mr. Cionci has wrapped himself in a castle of lies and absurdity through its surreal pamphlet “Ratzinger Code”, from which today he no longer knows how to escape, unless they continue to expose themselves to public derision, as the facts prove without easy penalty of denial, including the pathetic threat of having turned to the justice of that institution that he has outraged for years by hitting and delegitimizing the papacy through public contempt of the figure of the Roman Pontiff, continuing undaunted, all ’ today, to bring outrage to the memory of the Holy Father Francis.

But he says he turned to Vatican justice against a self-styled priest and self-styled theologian. And with this everything is said about the logic and coherence of Mr. Cionci.

The new Cionci's story: from the Roman Seraphicum to the British Nimby

6 November 2025/in Briefs of the Fathers/by Hermit Monk

THE NEW CIONCI'S STORY: FROM THE ROMAN SERAPHICUM TO THE BRITISH NIMBY

Dear Cavalier Cionci - because incidentally you are also a Knight of the Italian Republic - you are very free to think what you believe, to write it, naturally, to have a following. But don't take the Catholic Church or those who manage its structures for fools, with means of this kind.

Many know the English expression «Not In My Back Yard» (not in my garden), often abbreviated with the acronym: «Nimby». A saying that serves to designate someone's opposition to hosting projects on their territory.

But there is also a proverb, this time Italian, that we all know and that begins like this: «Between the two litigants…»; which I would like to conclude by modifying the classic form a little with «... the third laughs».

The two litigants in question I'm Alessandro Minutella, priest from Palermo excommunicated e dismissed from the clerical state, and the journalist Andrea Cionci, author of the book «Ratzinger Code» in which he advocates the thesis that Pope Benedict XVI would never have renounced the papacy, by taking shelter in an imaginary prevented location, with the consequence that Pope Francis would have been an antipope. For the current Pontiff, judgment is suspended. Once upon a time the two got along very well, sharing ideas and proceeds. But as happens in couples, even the most close-knit ones, who first love each other and then hate each other, this is what happened between our two. Not a day goes by that they get caught on social media, Holding things against each other and no longer mentioning each other's names. Minutella indicates Cionci as «the Roman journalist», while for Cionci the Palermo native is addressed with: «the great prelate». In truth they both have a mad desire for fame, but above all to be taken seriously. And where if not in the Catholic Church and in one of its structures for example?

It so happens that Cionci is invited to speak at a meeting promoted by an association on apocalyptic themes, none other than in a room belonging to the Pontifical University of San Bonaventura, which is part of the complex Seraphicum in Rome. Naturally quietly: "I kept a low profile", Cionci will say. To then promulgate to the four winds, something that his commentators on social media understood very well, just read the comments, who had been able to talk about what he believes even in a Pontifical University. Open up heaven. Minutella immediately raises her tone: «Yes to him, not to me?». And for the duration of the usual morning appointment with his followers he returns to it, showing the poster of the event, circled well to highlight Cionci's name and the cost of participation.

It happens that the event is cancelled. The university thinks again and does not make its spaces available. Naturally, CIONCA, he is quick to report it in a video on YouTube blaming Minutella, accusing him of having caused harm that was not so much to him, but to that extraordinary possibility of being able to speak about his theses in a Pontifical University.

Caro Cionci, we know Minutella, but this time he's not to blame: it is innocent. I'm the culprit, I admit: became aware of the thing and foreseeing the use that would then be made of it, I took pen and paper, or rather the computer, because even in my remote hermitage we have connection, and I wrote an email to the general secretary of the San Bonaventure Theological Faculty, asking if they thought it appropriate to host an event in which such bizarre ideas would be presented that still offend the person of Pope Francis, of venerable memory, and that of Pope Benedict, made to appear as a sort of carbonaro who puts the entire Church in check. The response was not long in coming: «the rental of the room was immediately canceled and the event at our headquarters was cancelled».

Perhaps the second email also had an impact, this time sent with more refined and appropriate tones by our editorial team of The Island of Patmos to the Prefect of the Dicastery for Culture and Education, Cardinal José Tolentino de Mendonça? I do not know, but so.

Dear Cavalier Cionci - because incidentally he is also a Knight of the Italian Republic - you are very free to think what you believe, to write it, naturally, to have a following. But don't take the Catholic Church or those who manage its structures for fools, with means of this kind. You know what I recommend? Rent a plane, there, It seems like a good idea to me. He's already tried it? Or, like Minutella does, go to hotels. It will be expensive yes, but I don't think you will manage to buy a former gym with an asbestos roof in a hamlet in the province of Padua, like the double doctor of theology from Palermo. I don't see it.

To reassure her I conclude with Professor Keating's words to one of his students, alias Robin Williams, in the famous film Dead Poets Society: «Let's not laugh at her, let's laugh with her".

With estimates.

The Arabian stallion of the Supreme Pontiff: those who want to mount and those who want to be mounted instead

17 October 2025/1 Comment/in Briefs of the Fathers/by Hypatia

THE ARABIAN STALLION OF THE SUPREME PONTIFF: THOSE WHO WISH TO MOUNT AND THOSE WHO WANT TO BE MOUNTED

The fact that animals are donated to the Roman Pontiff is not at all new. Leo X received a white elephant as a gift from King Manuel I of Portugal, the famous Hanno, who paraded in procession through the streets of Rome, Paul II was offered a pair of peacocks, they even brought a kangaroo from Australia to Pius IX. Benedict XVI occupies a privileged place in the hearts of us felines, having been a Catholic pontiff. Francesco instead received two donkeys: Thea e Noah, in case he hadn't already had plenty of them in the Vatican.

Franca Giansoldati, Vaticanist note from the newspaper The messenger, today gave news of the splendid Arabian stallion donated by a Polish faithful to His Holiness Leo XIV. A magnificent animal that the Holy Father - with that frank elegance of his that hopefully will surprise the courtiers - has expressed the desire to mount personally (cf.. WHO).

May animals be donated to the Roman Pontiff It's not new at all. Leo X received a white elephant as a gift from King Manuel I of Portugal, the famous Hanno, who paraded in procession through the streets of Rome, Paul II was offered a pair of peacocks, they even brought a kangaroo from Australia to Pius IX. Benedict XVI occupies a privileged place in the hearts of us felines, having been a Catholic pontiff. Francesco instead received two donkeys: Thea e Noah, in case he hadn't already had plenty of them in the Vatican. In short, the pontifical bestiary is almost as long as he Ecclesiastical Annals by Cesare Baronio.

May the Holy Father wish to mount that noble steed it sincerely fills us with joy. Not only because it reveals an authentic love for the creatures of creation, but also because it shows a Pontiff who is still vigorous and full of energy at the dawn of his just turned seventy years old. And God knows how much, in these times, the Church needs Pastors who still know how to ride a horse and lead the flock.

To worry, if anything, it's something else entirely: the very high number of subjects who populate the Roman Curia, who - apparently - instead dream of being ridden by that splendid stallion. And as long as this clerical herd, nourished by ambition and courtliness, she will not be sent back to the stables, no reform, however holy, can succeed. Everything will end, like always, in the usual gallop towards nowhere.

Between Prozan and Prozac. Those priests who deragliano and Santa Maria of balance

9 September 2025/in Briefs of the Fathers/by Drafting

Between Prozan and Prozac. THOSE PRIESTS WHO DERAIL AND HOLY MARY OF EQUILIBRIUM

For days we have been witnessing the case of some priests who have abandoned their ministry, believing that the cause is also due to a question of imbalance of that human virtue of temperance and faith. This essentially leads to the implementation of two possible scenarios: there are those who push on the accelerator of tradition and the romantic retro past with the hope of finding a panacea for the ills of the Church and those who dive into extreme progressivism which dangerously borders on heresy and manifest and full-blown schism.

– The briefs of the Fathers of the Isle of Patmos –

Author
Editors of The Island of Patmos

.

Among the many Marian devotions — real or presumed — that crowd the Orbe catholica There is a very nice one which in our opinion is decidedly original and significant. We're talking about the Alma Aequilibri Mater which was renamed with the name of Santa Maria dell'Equilibrio, of whose feast there is no date, because from morning to evening, will be invoked. Anyone who would like to know more about the history of this Marian devotion will easily be able to find various news on the web and in other sources, for us, however, it is an opportunity for some scattered reflections.

In everyday life there is a need for balance which is that human quality that pertains to the virtue of temperance. Balance tempers intelligence and strengthens it, making it more witty and effective. In spiritual life itself, balance is equally fundamental because a faith without balance, that is, unbalanced, it is a chaotic faith capable of all kinds of aberrations and exaggerations.

The intelligence of reasonable faith cannot do without balance just as a minister of God cannot but desire in the exercise of his office to be balanced in doctrine and pastoral practice, avoiding the antipodes of fiery emotionality and dry rationalism.

Why do we say this? Why are we having witnessed for days the case of some priests who have abandoned their ministry, believing that the cause is also due to a question of imbalance of that human virtue of temperance and faith. This essentially leads to the implementation of two possible scenarios that are different in fact but common in error: there are those who push on the accelerator of tradition and the romantic retro past with the hope of finding a panacea for the ills of the Church and those who dive into extreme progressivism which dangerously borders on heresy and manifest and full-blown schism.

We believe that determining whether a man is out of balance is not a matter for a lawsuit, as well as taking note and, if necessary, reporting that a minister in sacred is involved in practice and form in heterodox positions and separation from the ecclesial body of the Church does not constitute a matter under the Code of Criminal Law, if anything canonical and of matter that pertains to the internal forum.

This methodology is sadly notorious in the colorful rainbow lobbies where the trial of intentions and thoughts is equivalent to a violent repression of those who "don't think like me". Of those who want to strut their stuff in tolerance, wisdom and intellectual or theological acumen but in fact it is ensnared by ideology and the pride of the self which is the very denial of any healthy balance and the ability to go inside things.

As Fathers of the Island of Patmos we believe and reaffirm the freedom to use free will as we see fit - knowing that the Creator himself is the first to leave his creatures free - even at the cost of denying faith and the Church and falling into error and sin. However, we are equally convinced that by virtue of this freedom and assumption of responsibility in one's own positions - theological or otherwise - everyone must leave the freedom of criticism and dissent to others, certainly not by sending intimidating messages, or fearing unlikely complaints following the consolidated style of certain rainbow lobbies now specialized in asking for sentences of life imprisonment and harsh imprisonment of 41bis for those who dare to exercise freedom of thought and opinion. Theme this to which, our fathers Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo and Ivano Liguori dedicated a book that has not lost its relevance, indeed he acquired it over time: From Prozan to Prozac.

The updated Jesuit Giubigay that were until yesterday affected by Moralphobia

The Giubigay of those updated Jesuits that were until yesterday affected by moralphobia

Among the new generation Jesuits tolerance, The inclusive spirit and the various rainbows will soon come to such a level that will be forbidden to make any reflection within the church to intelligent and Catholic people so as not to offend the Jesuit imbeciles.

Having been a pupil formed by the Jesuits of the old and now extinct Ignazian school, at due respect to distinguish the meritorious company of Jesus who was, that is, that of my masters (see WHO), by the current Indie Company, inside which everything and more, including electrocuted and skidded.

Caused enormous pain in those who live, like us fathers of the island of Patmos, A deep and deep -rooted Eucharistic faith, witnessing the Festival of SacrileGherans in the Church-Simbolo of the Jesuits: The historic Roman Church of the Jesus (see video WHO e WHO). Yet these are the Jesuits themselves that in their male schools, until not many decades ago, They made teenagers sleep with their hands out of the sheets, always keeping a soft light on in the dormitories to avoid “Turpin” sins against purity. Because there was the entire mystery of evil there, inside the underwear, then, out of everything else, It could also be mentioned above, Starting from the most serious sins against charity. And we fly over the model of absolute purity of San Luigi Gonzaga, sometimes the psychological terrorism; model impossible to reach, for as it was presented, Perhaps to the perverse purpose of making the poor teenagers feel in the sempartial sin and forcing them to weekly confessions?

Needless to say, But I say it the same because in doing so I enjoy like Dante Alighieri on the lines of the XXXIIII Canto del Paradiso: because it does not impose certain Jesuit models of forced purity, as well as absolute, To Father James Martin and his rainbow friendly friendly? A little’ of old and healthy absolute purity at San Luigi Gonzaga, he would not hurt him, or not?

It is an extreme punishment See the members of today's Indie company to make public scandal giving sacrilegiously the body of Christ to the couples of happy and proud gays that are handful in the hand at the Eucharistic canteen with their boyfriend convinced that in error they are not theirs, but the Church. Because that's the problem, I go by repeating unnecessarily for years: Within our poor and disastrous Church there are subjects who have a distorted sense and purposes, not welcoming the sinner anymore, which must always be accepted, forgiven and blessed precisely for the mission entrusted to us by Christ, but they welcome the sin that they bless together with the sinner who lives proud in sin, thus leading armies of souls towards perdition. This did yesterday the members of the Indie Company in the Church of the Jesus, The same who until yesterday made psychological terrorism through the image of St. Luigi Gonzaga towards teenagers guilty of exciting themselves at the sight of a beautiful girl.

But then it is known: Among the new generation Jesuits tolerance, The inclusive spirit and the various rainbows will soon come to such a level that will be forbidden to make any reflection within the church to intelligent and Catholic people so as not to offend the Jesuit imbeciles.

Seventeen years, drunk and drugged, raped at four in the morning. All the fault of the patriarchate

17 August 2025/in Briefs of the Fathers/by father ariel

Seventeen, Drunk and drugged, Raped at four in the morning. ALL THE FAULT OF THE PATRIARCHY

If a girl of 17 years old, drugged and drunk, she leaves the disco at four in the morning asking for two pusher Tunisians to be accompanied home because she cannot stand up, behind him he has two unfortunates who have failed miserably as parents and educators. But you have to blame the patriarchy, to machismo, to society, even aliens and reptilians if desired, it is simpler and more convenient, rather than take responsibility for our disastrous family and social failures.

In a corner of Italy a girl of 17 years old she left the nightclub at four in the morning without being able to drive her car microcar with which she had arrived around 22, She was so drunk and high on cocaine.

He decides to leave his minicar in the nightclub parking lot and ask for a ride from two unknown boys, of twenty-year-old Tunisians with various criminal records for issues related to drug dealing. While they were on the street the two stopped and, since they were there, they decide to rape her.

Faced with this fact, some things need to be clarified immediately: if a girl of 17 years old drugged and drunk she asks to be accompanied home by two strangers at four in the morning because she can't stand up, no one has the right to rape her. Having said this, the devastating political correctness that prevails does not allow us to affirm that the opposite is true, if a girl of 17 years old, she doesn't want to take serious risks, she will avoid going out drunk and drugged from the disco at four in the morning by asking for a ride from two strangers. This second statement is not legitimate to make, because it is not read as an invitation to prudence but as an attempt to limit the freedom of certain young people who must be granted everything, for better and especially for worse. Then if something happens, at that point we start looking for the faults in others.

Extremely serious mistake to indicate the two rapists as Tunisians, it's pure racism. We need to hide their nationality to avoid discrimination and if it were to come out we should hurry to point out that they could also have been two Italian rapists, because with the surreal “they could be”, the victim will certainly be much less traumatized by the rape she suffered. He has soAbove all, it must be made clear that consummated rape is the fault of the patriarchy. Read more, or to mount all the ideological and media protests of the case, just call Elena, sister of poor Giulia Cecchettin and her father Gino, now specialized in invoking everything and more, from patriarchy to machismo, while not admitting that if a girl is 17 years old, drugged and drunk, she leaves the disco at four in the morning asking for two pusher Tunisians to be accompanied home because she cannot stand up, behind him he has two unfortunates who have failed miserably as parents and educators. But you have to blame the patriarchy, to machismo, to society, even aliens and reptilians if desired, it is simpler and more convenient, rather than take responsibility for our disastrous family and social failures.
