I have already addressed the question of the reasons for Jewish unbelief based on the Gospel of St. John (VIII, 43)1.
Now I base myself on another text of the same Gospel (XII, 37-50), perhaps less famous, but very interesting to help us understand – in these periods of religious syncretism – the differences between Christianity and post-biblical Judaism and the degree of responsibility of Judaism in the rejection of Jesus… … … Read on Read More

The British government established the Ministry of Loneliness. The proud empire that belonged to Queen Victoria and the East India Company raises the white flag. Old England was the first homeland of individualism, from Locke to Hume passing through Bentham's utilitarianism and the economics of the Scots, Smith e Mandeville. Before them, Thomas Hobbes theorized that homo homini lupus, therefore it must be kept in check quickly by iron-clad governments. Theresa May, British Prime Minister, perhaps out of feminine sensitivity, he captured something profound: the present time, in the West, it is that of disintegration, of depression, of loneliness.
We believe that the decision is the most sensational admission of defeat made by a political system, economic and social. Loneliness, in the United Kingdom, it captures at least ten million subjects, one sixth of the population and is certainly one of the main causes of alcoholism, of addictions, of depression, of suicides. It seems more widespread among the middle classes than among the very poor, but it is nothing more than the natural outcome of a way of life – individualism, career pursuit, success, money – which inevitably distances one from others. If for Aristotle, man was a social animal, or politician, whose realization occurred in the concreteness of the polis, for the postmodern Westerner, Max Stirner's dramatic conviction applies: the One. According to the German thinker of the Hegelian left, the only way to save man from every form of political slavery, cultural or religious consists in exalting it as an absolute value. The individual becomes the Unique, whose task is to appropriate only one, authentic ownership, himself.
We might remember it as the Protestantism of Northern Europe and Great Britain, in the form of the radical Anglicanism of the Puritans, arrives at the same conclusions through different paths, with man alone before the mystery of everything, paroxystically engaged in the vita activa to demonstrate to himself that he possesses grace. The consequence, forgotten every reference to transcendence, it is the loneliness following the unleashing of human passions. Read More

There is no day that the government, the institutions, the apparatus and the media do not fire against the Invisible Enemy who has now become the Absolute Evil to be defeated: le fake news.
After the exorcists and the ghostbusters wanted by law of Boldrini and Fiano, the government has launched an invisible structure with the Minister of the Interior Minniti and the police chief Gabrielli to fight the nuclear war against fakes, and it was launched the other day by none other than the National Anti-Cyber Crime Center in Tuscolano.
Meanwhile the global pirate Zuckerberg promises the chastity belt to Facebook and assures the Power that there will be secret filters, censorship and algorithms to combat diabolical fake news. Joining the media chorus, the former prime minister Monti - whose deadly government we have a vivid memory of - wrote an article yesterday in Corriere della sera claiming that we live in the era of fake news.
Now it seems like a world war to me against mosquitoes, or if you prefer the use of atomic bombs and entire armies to destroy butterflies, which fake news resembles in its ephemeral vagueness and elusive evanescence. Read More

«War is peace, Freedom is slavery, Ignorance is strength". These are the three slogans that stand out printed on the facade of the pyramid-shaped building in white concrete where the headquarters of the Orwellian Ministry of Truth is located: it is inside it, in the Archive, who works the protagonist of 1984, Winston Smith. The Miniver (in neolingua) deals with information and propaganda and has the task of producing everything relating to information: promotion and diffusion of the party's precepts, publishing, radio and television programmes, literature. This body also deals with the rectification of this material, in a widespread and constant work of rewriting the sources. The Miniver, Meaning what, deals with falsifying information and propaganda to make the material disseminated compliant with the directives and ideology of Ingsoc.

This year too, the report on the implementation of the law was sent to parliament 194/78, with the final data for the year 2016, published a few days ago on the portal of the ministry of health. The undeclared objective of this relationship is always the same: show to the public, numbers in hand, the presumed successes of the unfortunate law 194, in terms above all of a presumed significant and constant decrease in the overall number of abortions in Italy.
The system used to present the data is also always the same: the numbers of legal abortions in the various years of application of the law are indicated and compared to the latest data, those relating to the last year examined. It therefore turns out that in 2016 the children killed were "only" 84.926, il 3,1 percent less than the previous year, that is, well 2.713 fewer abortions. Furthermore, the data on the basis of which is highlighted in the report itself, compared to 1982, year in which the highest value of abortions was found, the number of them has more than halved.

France, Freemasonry was received en masse last Thursday by the "end-of-life" commission established by the EESC, the Economic Council, French Social and Environmental, already strongly smelling of “square and compass”: 52 members on 233 that compose it would be part of it and, among them, also former Grand Masters of the Godf, the Grand Orient of France, all convinced supporters of euthanasia.
Worth noting, how participation in the EESC is not on a voluntary basis: each member receives an allowance equal to 3.786,76 euros gross for an average of 10 days of work per month, of which 1.838,23 euros tax free.
It's not difficult, in any case, understand the direction of the commission, That, in addition to Godf, However, he also summoned the representatives of the Grand Lodge of France, of Human Rights and the Women's Grand Lodge of France. The week before, representatives of the main religious confessions had been received. Read More
US Catholic doctors celebrated the creation of an office for freedom of religion and conscience within the Department of Health and Human Services. The purpose of the new government body is to guarantee the application of the laws in force to protect the freedom of conscience of professionals and companies operating in the healthcare sector, sector particularly exposed to the risk of abuse by bodies and providers of family planning programmes.
The goal is to prevent anyone from being forced to participate in activities that violate their conscience such as abortion, sterilization, contraception and assisted suicide, one of the main causes – apparently, instead – of exclusion of Catholic doctors from residency programs.
The establishment of this body is another piece of the pro-life intentions clearly expressed by the Trump Administration and represents a halt to discriminatory policies that have been too widespread until now.. According to the director of this new office, Roger Severino, it is thus intended to demonstrate how «the laws of conscience are not empty words on paper, but guarantees of justice for the victims» of abuse.

Allies more by force than by will, Salvini and Berlusconi gain consensus with every survey, enough to actually risk winning the elections. A scenario that would give rise to a government of opposites unique in the world: with Merkel, but also with Le Pen. For the Euro, but also against. Congratulations

The tension between the two does not seem destined to end China e Taiwan. The speech of Xi Jinping al Communist Party congress had certified the will of the Chinese leader, in the medium term, to regain control of the island, which instead asks to be recognized as an independent state. On the Chinese side, the issue is not even remotely acceptable. Taiwan is considered an integral part of China and in Beijing they are also willing to move the armed forces if the need arises to repress a concrete attempt by the Taiwanese government to declare independence. The anti-secession law promulgated in 2005 under the presidency of Hu Jintao and the premiership of Wen Jiabao is very clear: the Chinese government may use "non-peaceful means" against the "Taiwan independence movement" if the Taipei government declares independence. A formal declaration is needed? According to Beijing's elastic interpretation it would seem to be unnecessary, as an operation that jeopardizes Chinese sovereignty over the area would be enough. In this sense, And important to remember the words of Li Kexin, who in Washington spoke of the arrival of an American ship as a gesture that would lead to the immediate invasion of the island by the Chinese armed forces.

The new Russia, nineties. In Moscow, following the changes, unpublished documents come to light, after further 70 years of silence. Documents that date back to the culminating moments of anti-religious persecution. Not the usual written documents, but also vintage films with impressive gruesome images. Let's observe, backwards, the history of the “Kiev Castrate Sect”, how this was dismantled in 1920 thanks to the new Bolshevik forces in power. A film remained unpublished for a long time. Thanks to the researcher Marco Dolcetta, Italian essayist writer director, teacher at the Sorbonne in Paris “History of religions”, we have an idea of how intense and irreverent the propaganda activity of the new regime established in 1917 by Lenin on the religious question. The film was made thanks to the zeal of the anti-religious section of the Interior Ministry of the Soviet regime which, dal 1920, would have given life, Then, to the so-called League of the Godless militants, a seemingly autonomous institution whose mission was to eradicate religious sentiment in the Russian population. Filmed in Ukraine, former Soviet Union, it is the documentary account although "stuffed" with fiction, on the activities of an Orthodox Christian agricultural-religious community. The scenes in the film highlight the self-inflicted mutilations on the body by believers to mortify the flesh and leave no room for desires, to carnal physical appetites. The sexophobic dilemma of religions. Bolshevik propaganda exposed the kind of life that took place in the churches. In the video you can see the followers of the "Kiev Castrati Sect" dancing: of the possessed, possessed as in the tradition of voodoo and in the ecstasies of the dervishes of southern Turkey. The Klisty, the religious sect to which Rasputin also belonged, danced in the same way. More oddities: the children put in the oven, religious people who try to fly and rites of all kinds to bring rain against the impending drought. While religious fanatics wait for rain and messages from the divine, with propitiatory rites, Bolshevik propaganda focuses on and teaches the modernization of the new Soviet man. In the film while the religious people are blamed, you see Soviet activities using technologies and intelligence of work, that is, the extraction of water from wells, or its conveyance into irrigation canals: it is the logic of socialist materialism.

In the middle years 70 of the past century, a boy fresh from his high school exams was spending a couple of weeks' holiday in the remote Valbrevenna, Genoese hinterland. The many villages in the valley, beautiful in their stone constructions, the remains of the common oven, the now boarded up church, each with the monument to the fallen of the two wars – so many, long excruciating lists of recurring surnames – they were already semi-abandoned. Some hamlets no longer had any inhabitants. Bled by the war, from the industrialization of the nearby city, to our teenage eyes they resembled the spooky images of Old West ghost towns seen in American films. Some local Alpine troops, war veteran, he cited by analogy Nuto Revelli's books on the vanquished, the valley dwellers of the Cuneo Alps decimated in Russia, whose towns had never recovered from the death of young people and the exodus to Turin of women of working and marriageable age.
Electoral friend, beyond 40 years later, it has only partially stopped the demographic collapse, but the entire municipality has fewer than eight hundred residents, quite a few of which are virtual, since in reality they are domiciled in the city. Thousands and thousands of other countries can tell the same story, which reminded the boy at the time of a Sanremo song from 1971, What will it be, with the unmistakable voice of José Feliciano and the Ricchi e Poveri version:
'my country that is on the hill, lying like a sleeping old man, boredom, abandonment, nothingness is your illness'. Read More

In Savona Arcigay issued its implacable fatwa against the family doctor Fabio Vaccaro “guilty” that they want to offer their patients with homosexual tendencies an alternative therapeutic path to the daily mantra, “you are as you are”, for which it would be right and proper to indulge any kind of instinct or drive, without asking too many questions, and to have then “increased the dose”, specifying his medical opinion on homosexuality, declaring to the Secolo XIX of Genoa: "We become homosexuals due to family dynamics and it is right to offer help to support these people to become men and women".
Unacceptable words for Mirko Principato, president of the Arcigay club “Openly” of Savona, who thus commented on Vaccaro's initiative to hang some posters inside his studio in Milan claiming the courses to cure homosexuality organized by Luca Di Tolve's Lot Group. […]
The national secretary of Arcigay immediately echoed this in Principato, Gabriele Piazzoni, that he talked about “very serious fact” on which “it is urgent to intervene”, then seizing the opportunity to dust off the bill presented by Senator Sergio Lo Giudice to ban the so-called reparative theories.
