Here is the survey that will cause discussion. There is a turning point
And Italians rediscovered themselves "religious". The outcome of the latest survey carried out by the Quorum institute seems destined to cause discussion, in collaboration with Youtrend. In addition to detecting voting intentions in view of the next European elections, the pollsters wanted to ask the interviewees for their opinion on some current issues.
Between work, employment, migrants and a hypothetical "danger of fascism", one of the questions focused on the expression “Dio, Homeland and family“. Users were asked how much - in their opinion - this triad represents i fundamental values of our country. Well, almost the 52% of the respondents answered yes, while the remainder 48% expressed a negative opinion. Right, it is therefore a real split, but the fact that the majority of citizens, despite religious and ethical indifference, leaning towards a confessional vision of life is certainly a good omen for the future of Italy.

Life and sayings of the Desert Fathers: John the Persian
A man said to his father Giovanni: «We have suffered so much for the kingdom of heaven; we will inherit it eventually?». And the old man said: «I trust that I will inherit the Jerusalem of above inscribed in heaven. He who promised is faithful; why should I doubt? I was as hospitable as Abraham, gentle like Moses, holy like Aaron, patient like Job, humble like David, a hermit like Giovanni, contrite like Jeremiah, doctor like Paolo, faithful like Peter, wise like Solomon. And I believe like the thief that he who out of his goodness has given me all this, he will also give me the kingdom of heaven" (237d-240a).

Contracts in Calabria, the Democratic Party trembles: President Oliverio is in trouble
From the Cosenza hospital to the Alarico museum: shadows on public investments. Earthquake in the Democratic Party: twenty people are under investigation
A barrage of warranty notices, notified this morning by the Financial Police and the Carabinieri, they have opened Pandora's box.
And twenty people, many of whom are leading exponents of regional politics, are being investigated as part of an investigation by the Catanzaro prosecutor's office into the management of public procurement in Calabria. The investigators believe they are at the head of a group made up of politicians, technicians and entrepreneurs. And among these there is also the president of the Region, Mario Oliverio (Pd).
The charge is criminal conspiracy. At the center of the investigation, according to what he learns’agency Agi, they would certainly end up investments public funds provided to the city of Cosenza. In particular, those linked to the construction of the new hospital would have ended up under the magnifying glass of the investigators, of the Cosenza-Rende surface metro and the Alarico museum. Among the suspects, as well as the governor Oliverius, Nicola Adamo would be there, former regional councilor and vice president of the council (he too of Democratic Party), Luca Morrone, son of the regional councilor Giuseppe Ennio Morrone and the mayor of Cosenza, Mario Occhiuto (Forza Italia). Initially against the metro project, Occhiuto would have exchanged his consent for the promise of financing for the Alaric museum.
The defendants immediately declared themselves uninvolved in the facts. Oliverio explained that some hypotheses of crime, like the tender for the Cosenza metro, dates back to 2014, that is, prior to his taking office at the helm of the Region, and that for others, such as the construction of the new hospital in Cosenza, only the feasibility study was produced. “I am more certain than ever that, also on this occasion – he commented – no judge will share a similar accusatory approach, who glimpses suspicions of crime in normal conduct of a political nature, in the Aristotelian sense of the term”. Occhiuto too, after having “asked to be heard as soon as possible”, he tried to dismantle the accuse which were moved to him explaining that “the funding and administrative coverage for the construction of Alarico's museum had already been granted well before Oliverio became president of the regional council, and that the tender for the aforementioned works cannot at all be defined as illegitimate, having indeed already passed the control of the competent administrative judge”. Not only that. The mayor also pointed out that “the alleged undue benefit, constituting the counterpart of the alleged illicit agreement, it would consist of the promise of financing for the execution of a public work for the benefit of the city of Cosenza, and not for my personal interests”.

La fontana 'demoniaca' it costs the Municipality 150 thousand euros: it's polemical
The first 'social complaint' came from Senator Pillon.
Storm over the municipal administration of Vergato, in the province of Bologna, after the mayor inaugurated thea new fountain intended for a public space. The sculptural complex unequivocally represents the figure of a "satanasso” excited, carrying a child with butterfly wings on his back.
A completely questionable choice, also considering the costs that the administration had to bear: am 150mila euros. However, the news did not escape the Northern League senator Simone Pillon, who "denounced" the mayor's initiative via a post on Facebook: “If they want curtains for the crucifixes, I ask for a concrete pour to permanently hide this rubbish“. In fact, many have seen the statue as a representation that is certainly not suited to a public space for children, as well as a real one anthem to pedophilia.
But it was the mayor of Vergato himself who responded to Pillon. Massimo Gnudi (Pd) he explained to the local press that the “faun portrayed is the Rhine River, which carries the Vergatello stream on its shoulders, while the triton at the base is the Apennines. In short, it is a work that tells the story of the territory, with the style of the artist Luigi Ontani".

South Africa, the Boers found whites-only towns: "Così ci difendiamo dalle violenze dei neri"
The birth of whites-only South African towns would, according to the promoters of the initiative, the only possible solution to avoid the disappearance of the Afrikaner identity from the country
In South Africa, a 25 years since the end of apartheid, the white minority decided to react to “discriminations” hitherto suffered at the hands of the black majority.
The descendants of the Boers have in fact recently chosen to give life to some towns “for whites only”, intended to provide job opportunities and protection to victims of “reprisals” promoted by the black population. The territory affected by the appearance of communities reserved for Afrikaners is that of the Northern Cape province, in the north-west of the country.
The first housing reality created to accommodate only white individuals was Eureka, recently built a short distance from the city of Garies, always in the province in question, on the initiative of agricultural entrepreneur Adriaan Alettus Nieuwoudt. In the newborn community, equipped with schools, well-equipped shops and clinics, the Afrikaners will be able to, according to him, “live and work demonstrating their identity and language without the risk of retaliation”. The entrepreneur, proclaimed himself promoter of the fight against “disappearance of the white race from South Africa”, has therefore recently announced the birth of Eureka to the local media, promising to give plots of a thousand square meters to every white person who decides to move to this mono-ethnic reality.

Ah, if we had a government, what he could do!
I report here from Zibordi what he defines “the most important economics article published this year”. How to solve the problem of Italian public debt within the Euro E’ John Cochrane's solution to the national debt. Create an Interest-Paying Treasury Electronic Currency. An electronic money of the State (“Treasury Electronic Money”) at the Ministry of the Treasury (therefore not a currency created by the Central Bank like banknotes and like the "reserves" with which the Central Bank buys securities). In this way citizens have an account with the Treasury, with debit and credit card, and they finance the deficit without realizing it.

Book Fair: the thought police censor inconvenient journalists
Of Enrica Perucchietti
Source: Revolution
A few days before the start of the event, "red" censorship was triggered at the Turin Book Fair: some journalists and the publisher Francesco Giubilei they were branded as “neo-fascists and racistsyes Christian Raimo That, being a member of the Salon's editorial committee, plays an institutional role…(see the article by Francesco Giubilei).
They ended up in the sights of the thought police respectively:Alessandro Giuli(journalist, television writer and co-host of Povera Patria, he confirmed to me that he hadn't even been invited, so he didn't have any events scheduled),Francesco Borgonovo(former editor-in-chief of the newspaper «Libero» and author of La Gabbia on La7, he is now editor-in-chief for «La Verità», essayist and host of Iceberg on Telelombardia) eAdriano Scianca(director of «Il Primato Nazionale», collaborator of «La Verità» and national culture manager for CasaPound Italia).Evidently they would like to be prevented from attending the Fair and from expressing themselves freely.
In the current society ofpolitically correct, in which everything is spectacularized and trivialized, those who do not align with the single thought are denigrated, persecuted and branded with the stigma of "fascism".
The paradox is that violence, censorship and the squad attitude comes precisely from those who cloak themselves in do-gooder slogans and stuff their mouths with politically correct mantras. Political correctness has become a real ideology that rewrites the language, it indicates a morality to be followed and reprograms the minds and behaviors of the masses. Read More
Greta's prophecies
Dictionary of dogmatic theology. The Holiness of the Church
Holiness is the second property that the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Symbol attributes to the Church and which emanates from the intimate nature of the same. In fact, if the Church is "the union of Christ with man in a social form" it must be holy, like everything that is in contact with God. The Bible presents holiness as the characteristic attribute of the Church: «Christ loved the Church and gave himself for her, in order to sanctify it (…), to prepare her as an immaculate bride, without wrinkles and without moles" (Ephesus. 5, 26); «Christ chose us so that we might be holy and immaculate before him» (Ephesus. 1, 4): "He gave himself for us in order to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify himself into an acceptable and zealous people for good works" (Tit. 2, 14). The holiness of the Church is threefold: sanctity of principles, of the limbs, of charismas. The sanctity of principles consists in the fact that the Church is endowed with means that are suitable for producing sanctity in men (active sanctity). Really the dogmatic and moral doctrine of the Church (Magisterium) it is the ferment that lifts the human mass from the darkness of the earth to the splendors of the sky; his Sacraments (Ministry) they are the channels that transmit sanctifying grace; his authority (Empire) it tends only to guide the faithful along the path of perfection. The sanctity of the limbs results from the spectacle that has constantly occurred in the history of Christianity of many faithful living according to the precepts of the Gospel (common holiness) and many others who, also following the evangelical advice, they have reached the arduous heights of heroism (eminent sanctity), which is usually sanctioned by canonization. All the centuries of the history of Christian peoples, from San Paolo to San Benedetto, from Saint Francis of Assisi to Saint Teresa of Jesus, from San Vincenzo de' Paoli to San Giovanni Bosco are intersected by the luminous trail of heroic sanctity (passive sanctity). The sanctity of charisms emerges from the gift of miracles, with which the Holy Spirit usually manifests his presence throughout the mystical Body (they are in fact the miracles thanks gratis datae for the building of the Church) as in some member endowed with singular virtue, because God, ordinarily he uses the souls dearest to him to work his wonders (signs of holiness).

Pro-cannabis billboards near schools, the teachers rise up
'Legal but inappropriate advertisements'.
Storm against the mayor of Bari Antonio Decaro. The mayor of the Apulian capital ended up in the sights of the teachers who work at the De Nittis Pascali art high school, located on the city seafront. What caused the controversy to flare up, the authorization granted by the Municipality to a trading company cannabis light to advertise near schools via billboards.
A choice that was not liked at all by the high school teachers who literally rose up against the municipal administration:” It is possible that this billboard will appear in front of the entrance to our high school? – a professor writes on the mayor's Facebook profile- Right in front of a high school? Although it is legal, I don't think it is appropriate or educational in front of a school of teenage boys. Relaxation can also be achieved by looking at the sea, view that this billboard hides. It's absurd". But it seems that other colleagues also complained. What makes the matter even more serious is the fact that a few meters from De Nittis Pascali there is another high school (the “classic” Orazio Flacco), who could be involved in the affair.

Abortionists admit it: "Noi uccidiamo esseri umani"
Recently, Planned Parenthood* abortion doctor Leah Torres, who had previously proudly tweeted about cutting the vocal cords of fetuses to prevent them from screaming during abortion, wrote another tweet.
A user asked her : “if we could prove that an unborn child is 1/1024th human, the Democrats will finally protect them?”. Torres responded : “Human beings are pregnant with other human beings. This is not up for debate. The problem is the rights of pregnant human beings.". Torres knows that every abortion kills a human being.
Planned Parenthood may say that abortion is healthcare but their doctors know that abortion is not like removing a tumor, fix a broken leg or cure a virus. Abortion destroys a human life. Many abortion doctors have admitted this.
Author Nancy Dey quoted an abortion doctor from Planned Parenthood which he stated : “every time I perform an abortion I always have in my mind the idea of ending a human life.". The doctor described his emotions during the procedure : “It eats away at you inside very quickly…not so much for the physical part of the work but for the emotional one. When you do an ultrasound, especially if you have children, and you see the fetus moving, kicked, vivo, doing things your child used to do, bringing your thumb to your mouth and things like that… it's difficult. Then, when the procedure is finished, sometimes we have to look at the champion and see torn arms and legs... You have to be very emotionally strong". Read More
Bergoglio challenges the sovereignists: è lui l'alleato dell'Unione europea
Il “Papa” arrives in Bulgaria and sends a signal not so much to Sofia, as for all the capitals of Europe. The Church exists and is in field for these European elections with one certainty: the EU must not end up in the hands of sovereignists.
Francis' trip to Bulgaria is a journey that smells of ecumenism: and it is the “Papa” the first to support it. For the “pontiff”, the country is a "meeting place between multiple cultures and civilisations, bridge between Eastern and Southern Europe, open door to the Near East". And in the words addressed to the Sofia authorities, the theme of migration forcefully returns to the center of the challenge: "The Bulgaria finds itself confronted with the phenomenon of those who try to enter within its borders, to escape wars and conflicts and poverty and try to reach the richest areas of the European continent in any way, to find new opportunities for existence, or simply a safe haven”.
And Francis makes an appeal that actually turns out to be a clear stance towards all sovereignist movements: “To you, that you know the drama of emigration, May I suggest that you do not close your eyes, the heart and the hand - as is in your tradition - to those who knock at your door porte“.

The generals distrust the Trenta. The protest spreads across the web
Discontent against the Minister of Defense is widespread in the Armed Forces. The criticisms: “It is in Di Maio's hands”
Discontent among the military grows. The statements of the Minister of Defense, Elisabetta Trenta, following the opening of an investigation against General Paolo Riccò, than last 25 April had abandoned the Liberation Day ceremony in Viterbo following the ANPI attacks, neither the rank and file nor the top brass of the Armed Forces liked them. The controversy broke out on social media, so much so that a group was created, which matters beyond that 4.400 registered, from the name «I am with General Paolo Riccò».
The fact is that the minister, during his year in office, he made a lot of promises, but he kept few, starting from those on the reorganization of careers, so much so that a Cocer delegate had to do, in the absolute silence of the Defense, 40 days of hunger strike to get the necessary reassurances from Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte.

For the Roman Mass, against the Novus ordo
Giuseppe Federici Study Center – For a new onset
Press release no. 36/19 of the 6 maggio 2019, San Giovanni a Porta Latina
For the Roman Mass, against the Novus ordo
“Whoever is satisfied with the M.P. the Supreme Pontiff, which on the contrary declares that the missal reformed by Paul VI is the ordinary rite of the Catholic Church, and which defends its doctrinal orthodoxy a priori, he has already deserted the battle that has begun, 40 years ago, give a brief critical review of the New Order of the Mass".
Preface to the reprint of the Brief Critical Examination of the Novus Ordo Miss
Il 30 November 1969, first Sunday of Advent and therefore the beginning of the new liturgical year, a new "Ordo Missae" was to come into force in all Catholic churches, a new missal (promulgated with the apostolic constitution Missale Romanum of 3 April 1969) in application, it was said, of the conciliar constitution on the liturgy Sacrosantum Concilium (4 December 1963). In the intentions of Paul VI, clearly manifested in the consistory to the cardinals of 24 maggio 1976, the reformed missal had to take - definitively - the place of the old one: “The adoption of the new Ordo Missae is certainly not left to the free decision of the priest or the faithful. The education of 14 June 1971 predicted that the celebration of mass according to the ancient rite would be permitted, with the authorization of the Ordinary, only to elderly or sick priests who celebrate without assistance. The new Ordo was promulgated to take the place of the old one, after mature reflection, in order to put into practice the norms established by the Second Vatican Council".
Thirty years have passed now (Today 50, ndr) from that famous speech, and the ancient missal has not disappeared, as was desired and thought. And this not only because it is still celebrated in every part of the Catholic world, but also because the provisions issued by the successors of Paul VI have increasingly authorized the celebration of the ancient missal; ultimo in ordine di tempo il Motu Proprio "Summorum Pontificum" del 7 July 2007.
