Of Franco Battaglia
Global warming (RG) it is the realization of the dream of environmentalists (who from now on I will always and only call Gretini): exercise total control over society and individual behavior. Gretinism has served for decades as the best excuse for controlling the actions of individuals, blackmailing them with warnings like: do this for the salvation of your children o, if you don't have any, for the safety of the seals. But with RG it's a completely different force: do it for the salvation of the entire planet, because your behavior in Stockholm, says little Greta, has consequences in Gitega, in Burundi. The RG spectrum has the additional benefit of allowing the irritating obstacle of national sovereignties to be overcome, contemptuously dismissed as sovereignism.

The RG problem is so gigantic that, actually, no solution is sufficient to solve it, and whatever you do it will never be enough. Remember the Kyoto Protocol which came into force in 2003, it made us bleed financially, but we did not get even one iota closer to the result we were aiming for? It was "just a first step". But why CO2? Because controlling CO2 means controlling energy uses, and that means controlling all of us, our economy, our lifestyles: where communism failed, they are trying with Gretinism. Which is not without a tragic irony: the worst ecological disasters were those perpetrated in the Soviet bloc countries and still are today in communist China

Holy Thursday
by

We publish, to help your prayer and reflection, on this day which commemorates the institution of the Eucharist and the Priesthood, some extracts from the work of the Cardinal of Milan Ildefonso Shuster ( A. I. SCHUSTER, The Book of the Sacraments. Historical and liturgical notes on the Roman Missal – III. The New Testament).

HOLY THURSDAY

Lateran station

The Basilica of the Savior where the Supreme Pontiffs established their ordinary residence since the 5th century, today claims the honor of the solemn rites with which the Church begins the Easter solemnity on this very day. Another time there were three masses, one in the morning for the reconciliation of public penitents, the other for the consecration of the sacred oils intended for the anointing of the sick and for Baptism, the third finally at dusk for the commemoration of the Lord's Supper and Easter Communion. It is therefore understandable why the station instead of being celebrated in San Pietro, which was then outside the urban enclosure, was held more comfortably in the Lateran.
Today the ritual is less complex, and the discipline of public penance having fallen into disuse, the holy oils are consecrated in the same mass as the Easter Communion. Read More

La Chiesa brucia nell'odio

FIFTH COLUMN

by Marcello Veneziani

The spire looked like a missile from antiquity Notre Dame which came loose in the fire, falling back onto the same launch pad from which it started. It looked like a rocket from a lost technology, called faith, which was aiming for the sky to return to the Father and which instead now fell to the ground, like a burning ember towards hell. Rockets was the title of Baudelaire's flashing aphorisms dedicated to the ruins of modernity, to the short circuit of progress, to the fire of tradition.

The Churches, the cathedrals, they are symbolic places, liturgical, rituals. And so they should be considered. If a Church burns, if the most famous cathedral in Europe burns, it will mean something in the allusive realm of symbols. E the silence of the Pope falls within the symbolism of the event. As soon as I saw the fire, I thought about Dominique Vennier's suicide in Notre-Dame, the spring of six years ago, to witness the suicide of our civilization. Certain profane acts unleash negative energies, they summon demons, a religious man would say at the time Notre-Dame was built.
Sixty churches burned in the space of a few years in France, perhaps during restorations, they are a worrying balance that we can deal with like a case, a statistical data on 45 thousand sacred buildings, such as accidents at work. But it then comes back into our imagination, between myth and superstition, the connection between the suicide of Christianity and the destruction of the churches, between the abandonment of faith and the carelessness that leads to the fire, between hatred towards Christianity and the fire that envelops it, between the papal complaint that the churches are empty of faithful and priests and therefore their intended use must be redefined and the havoc before our eyes...

Businessmen, political and cunning: ecco chi c'è dietro il «fenomeno Greta» lodato da Bergoglio
by

A left-wing think tank, an unscrupulous business man. And a plan: make money with eco. There is something disturbing about the "Greta phenomenon", now come to us on the occasion of Holy Week
The little girl is now the icon not only of radical environmentalism, but of all that part of public opinion that loves to simplify everything on the basis of moralistic schemes.
In his most famous speech, at COP-24 in Katowice, Thunberg adopted Jacobin tones to contrast the purity of her youthful ideals with the interests of those powerful adults who would keep a small portion of humanity in luxury, even as they sacrifice the rights of the weakest.

How is it possible that this girl was called to speak in front of experts from all over the world? In Katowice, Thunberg spoke as a representative of an organization called Climate Justice Now. In short, the network of ecological movements decided not to send a fifty-year-old aware of the complexity of the problems and very coldly played the media card of a still childish face lined up in defense of the entire world.

Urbi et Orbi Message of Pius XII, Easter 1957
by

Giuseppe Federici Study Center – For a new onset

Press release no. 34/19 of the 18 April 2019, Holy Thursday
Urbi et Orbi Message of Pius XII, Easter 1957
Once again an immense multitude "of every language and people and nation" (Apoc. 5, 9) fills this majestic square, which, beloved sons and daughters, it seems that everyone embraces you and unites you. And with you, present in spirit, they are the millions of other faithful, who devoutly listen to Our voice.
A new light shines in your eyes, a hymn of joy and glory resonates in your hearts : thousands and thousands of voices sing it, the harmonies of the organs accompany it, they spread it in the air, on the mountains and in the valleys, the ringing of bells. It's Easter. It is the day that the Lord made for our exultation, for our joy : "These days, which the Lord did: let us rejoice and be glad in it" (in Off. Because. Resurrect.).
The Lord knows how we would like to penetrate every home, pass through all the hospital wards, stop blessing next to every cradle, bend over with tenderness over every suffering; we would like to be able to free everyone from all fears, to give peace to all, to fill everyone with joy. Unfortunately it is not possible to do what we would like; and then We will restrict ourselves from addressing Our word to you, to confide to you - as we have done on other occasions - some thoughts born in our hearts during our meditation.
The echoes of the « Praeconium paschale » have just died away, and We still have in our soul a particular reason among the many that follow each other, they intertwine and merge in bold harmony. After the invitation to rejoice, addressed to the angelic crowd of heaven, to the earth, to mother Church and to all peoples, the attention of the liturgical song focuses on the night that preceded the resurrection of the Lord. Real night, night of passion, of anguish, of darkness; and yet a blissful night: "a truly blessed night"; because she alone deserved to know the time and hour in which Christ rose from the dead, but above all, because it was written about it: the night will light up like the day: "and the night will be lighted like the day".

Con Notre-Dame brucia l'Europa
by

by Umberto Bianchi
It burns, burns and burns again…never, within living memory, fire was seen to be so strong and resistant to human technologies…And yet it is whispered that, in France, as well (at least that's how it should be...sic!) in San Pietro or at the Milanese Cathedral, quasi-infallible security systems are in operation; real micro-devices complete with sensors connected to emergency response centers... But there seems to be nothing ready here, except for a fire that had broken out hours ago and was inexplicably indomitable. Media that quietly prophesy the destruction of one of the most beautiful architectural jewels in the world, while someone tells us that this was already destroyed by a previous fire a century or so ago and skilfully rebuilt, as if this were a belated consolation to what, now more than ever, it is becoming a symbol of the bonfire of a profoundly sick West and Europe. Sick with the most insidious and disgusting form of syphilis that a civilization can know: that of do-goodism. Sick of a religiosity that is no longer such, now reduced to a pure and simple mass media phenomenon, full of beautiful words, good intentions and nothing else, that is not a lax adaptation to the vital rhythms of a prevailing economic materialism.

Bergoglio's Via Crucis for immigrants and against closed ports, ours for the Passion of Christ in remission of sins
by

The Via Crucis of “Papa” Francesco: for immigrants and against closed ports
Roma, 17 Apr – One Way of the Cross which must inspire the faithful to commit themselves to "not making those who are dying today in too many ordeals around the world feel lonely, including collection fields similar to lagers in transit countries, ships that are refused safe port, the llengthy bureaucratic negotiations for the final destination, the centers of permanence, the hot spots, camps for seasonal workers". This is what Sister Eugenia Bonetti wrote in her meditations at the Colosseum, presided over by Pope Francis and published by the Vatican publishing house. Clear the reference therefore to the so-called "closed ports" and the need to welcome immigrants. The usual rhetoric from Bergoglio In short, who instructed this nun to give voice to his policy increasingly oriented towards the opening of borders without any ifs or buts.

The promised land

The text, Of 61 pages, has a clear accusatory tone towards the Italian government: “Who remembers in this era of quick news those twenty-six young Nigerians swallowed by the waves, whose funeral was celebrated in Salerno? Their ordeal was hard and long. First the crossing of the Sahara desert, piled onto makeshift buses. Then the forced stop in the frightening collection centers in Libya. Finally the jump into the sea, where they found death at the gates of the 'promised land'". Ecco, this last sentence is particularly significant for understanding the message launched by the Pope. Who is it that urges Africans to reach the “promised land”? Who promises this land? The biblical reference is even more emblematic, if we consider that it serves to make those who emigrate believe that they are destined for another land, what a second the Church would even be theirs, because "promise".

"Erdogan arma gli estremisti". The sultan enters the chaos of Libya
by

The conflict in Libya seems to be getting tougher day by day. The bombings of the last few hours I am a clear demonstration: the civilian victims caused by the missiles rained on Tripoli, for whose responsibilities we are now also witnessing a mutual exchange of accusations between the parties involved, testify to the intensity reached by a battle now entering its second week. And Haftar's finger pointing towards Turkey also adds to the controversy, with Ankara accused of introducing weapons from outside for the most extremist militiamen.

Ahmed Al Mismari's accusations

Just like reported by the site AddressLibya, during a press conference held on Tuesday evening in Benghazi, the LNA spokesperson, Ahmed Al-Mismari, calls Turkey explicitly and rather heavily into question. According to the leaders of Haftar's army, in particular, President Erdogan's government is currently financing and donating weapons to the militias that have remained loyal to Al Sarraj's government. Al Mismari specifies that Ankara is supporting in particular those deemed militias, within the galaxy of forces currently engaged in the defense of Tripoli, the most extremist. The weapons, according to the LNA spokesperson, they arrive in Libya via the port of Zura, locality near the Tunisian border along the coast in the hands of groups loyal to the Tripoli executive. Despite the fact that between this town and the capital a large part of the territory is in the hands of Haftar's army, the weapons would still be able to reach the hands of Al Sarraj's forces.
