As expected, a delegation of was enough soli 5 traditionalist Catholics to send the parishioners of the town of Arcole into a tailspin (province of Verona, diocese of Vicenza) and to desist from the promised public confrontation “don” Diego Castagna, actor of a falsely crucified Jesus in a Via Crucis for migrants, against femicide and for the right to work.
What do these themes have to do with the Way of the Cross, which should be a pious devotion to the Passion of Our Lord who died on the Cross after atrocious suffering for the redemption of the world in expiation of its many sins? Because this sacrilegious theatricalization of such a painful moment and usually devoted to penance?
Yesterday morning, after having agreed by telephone, we went in front of the church of Arcole to ask the protagonist of this show these things, after the newspaper L'Arena had already written on Easter Eve, in general terms, of our disapproval, as well as, with further clarifications, the online newspaper www.veronanews.net . Even some national newspapers and politicians spoke about it in polemical tones, in line with ours.
We unfurled an eloquent banner: “WAY OF THE CROSS!!! NON SHOW! “CHRIST THE KING” and awaited the conclusion of the conciliar function. About ten people crowded in the churchyard even during the ritual, he scrutinized us, with a grim look, but without ever moving. Eventually we were informed that it was the slap of “show-man” and we thought that perhaps it would be his audience during the confrontation. Ma, at some point, the journalist from L'Arena, author of the article reported below, informed us that we would not be able to speak to the person concerned, because he wouldn't come. Even the slap, At that time, it disappeared silently, while our manager Matteo Castagna was accompanied by a policeman to deliver to the rectory's mailbox a written document with attachments of extracts from the Catechism on the Passion and on the discipline of the Catholic Church regarding the Easter period and a Via Crucis meditated with the real meaning of the 14 Stations. “E’ pretty normal – our Castagna told reporters – that the council members are not of their word because they fear confrontation with us Catholics. In twenty years of experience as a traditionalist, I can say that it has always been like this. Even at their conferences, when we would like to speak in the debate, they do everything they can to not give it to us. E’ it is clear that they are only at ease with their lackeys or with Muslims and immigrants. In this case I feel sorry for people, that if not completely blinded by conciliar inculturation, he could have thought about it, after having witnessed a public discussion on issues of great religious importance. Sin. Missed opportunity for them, certainly not for us, that in any case we always trust in Grace and therefore in a repentance and repentance of the conciliars, as for all heretics or schismatics”.
It would have been our intention to also make it clear that what occupies our churches is not the Catholic Church, but the new church with its new rites and new sacraments, began with the Second Vatican Council. Unfortunately, but, as some of the Arcolesi present pointed out, “they make us pass off these and many other things as Catholic, but I remember that once upon a time it wasn't like that”. And this is the great problem of our times. We did, in our small way, that proselytism animated by Christian charity, duty of every confirmed person, hoping that Grace will do the rest for the conversion of the councilors to Catholicism. They. Rosary and the pilgrimage to the Madonna della Corona Sanctuary that we recited and carried out immediately afterwards were dedicated precisely to this intention, in addition to the request to finally have the Pope, after many years of vacant office (dal 1958, death of Pius XII).
