THE THEORETICAL BASIS OF THOMIST SYNTHESIS. A CRITICISM AT THE THOUGHT OF DOMINICAN PHILOSOPHER AND THEOLOGIAN JOSEPH BABU

.

[…] the idealist does not care so much about the actual, how much to build a system of ideas. The real to him is only an opportunity to build his system, giving shows inventive and genius. He therefore conceives philosophy as if it were an artistic work; not so much as if it consisted in seeing, but in doing. So the idealist philosopher is at the service of others to lead them to the truth, but it is a skilled speaker who wants to impress others with its paradoxical and amazing beats or dialectical inventions, as would a juggler, mage or magician.

POPE FRANCIS AND IDEALISM

.

John Cavalcoli OP

.

Today it has become clear and common ground, after the powerful and decisive words of Pope Francis, that there is no room in the Church for the idealism, just as there is no room for those philosophical doctrines, that, for different reasons, prevent, they destroy or falsify the knowledge of faith and therefore the truth of faith. The idealist, so, can no longer be, as it was believed for a long time, pedantic companion with a realist on the Gospel and in communion with the Church, ma, as the conductor Jorge Mario Bergoglio made us understand, is an abusive traveler, without ticket, who is cornered: you pay the ticket or realist, and then you can travel with me and passengers on the train of faith and salvation; or take another train, where do you hope to get to Christ maybe more surely and more quickly of the realist.

MARRIAGE, CONCUBINAGE AND VIRGINITY

[…] from the Bible the pleasure is sensitive compared to spiritual pleasure, even to the same Divine joy, God's pure spirit, that obviously has no sex. It is important to, because of this, have an analogical concept of pleasure, connecting the sensitive one to the spiritual one. This is the way to avoid both rigorism and laxity, both Origen and Pannella.

REFLECTIONS ON LUTHER, ALLE PORTE DELL’ANNIVERSARIO DELLA SUA PSEUDO “REFORM”, FOR WHICH NOTHING, THE CATHOLICS, THEY WOULD HAVE TO CELEBRATE

"We Catholics have no reason to celebrate 31 October 1517, the date considered the beginning of the Reform that led to the Schism of Western Christianity "

As they approach the celebration of pseudo-reform heresiarch Martin Luther, the fathers of’Patmos Island propose to the two short essays Readers: the first, drawn these days by John Cavalcoli ON, The second one, It is the revival of a written text and published over a year ago by Ariel S. Levi di Gualdo.

the Supreme Pontiff Francis, during his visit at the center of worship of the Lutherans in Rome, donates the Reverend Jens-Martin Kruse a chalice for the holy Eucharistic celebrations. The question, very subdued and devout, is the following: to what purpose that gift, perhaps to celebrate the simple “memory of a Dinner“? By clicking on the photo you can see the Vatican Television movie, of which we recommend the vision by minute 6.15 following, which speaks repeatedly of “price” without ever naming the Eucharist, memorial of the holy and living sacrifice …

Luther wanted an internal reform of the Church, I wanted the purification and renewal, He wished that many believers were released by forms of mere popular superstition; and both of purification both of renewal is liberation from mere forms of popular superstition, the Church had deep need. The movement away from him and that after him came to life any reform but only a never break soon became schism has not yet generated; it more for interest and for political self-interest for the requirements and ideals of faith. This is the reason why I do not like to use the popular term - unfortunately, even in Catholic circles, indeed even repeatedly mentioned on The Osservatore Romano - The "Reformation". I believe that Luther would want a reform. His followers and those who have collected and appropriated his voice instead have combined to create a dramatic break in virtue of which the Catholic Church, soon led to a bath of healthy and perhaps even deserved realism, It was forced to react with internal reform: the Council of Trent, called in my opinion in a completely improper under the name of counter-reform also - unfortunately! - As part of what should be the most educated and highest theological and historical-theological studies promoted within our ecclesiastical academic institutions.

The Church reacted to the painful laceration through the means, language and effective ways and relevant adopted by the Council Fathers at that time their historical. But since the term "Tridentine" has become a sort of synonymous derogatory, unfortunately also for "theological" Catholic, you may lose the extraordinary significance of that great Council that the facts did the reform that Luther wanted, but that in part to his guilt, in part because of his blind and deaf Roman interlocutors, but above all because of the political and personal interests of many rulers, He could not pass.
