Solzhenitsyn beyond stereotypes: a spiritual father of the new Russia

Mosca, 30 Dec – As far as the Russian political-state elite has decided tactically, dal 2000 to date, to moderately reintegrate Russian civilization into the global market sphere, the model of civilization that advances with Putinism, as we have already had the opportunity to specify, it is of substance neo-traditional and “social-orthodox”, that is, based on a Sobornost' expressed in the sense of moral and social communion, absolutely non-atomistic and non-individualistic, model of civilization that constitutes, among those present, the greatest ideological and cultural challenge to the liberal democratic Anglosphere. For some decisive reasons, first among these the political translation of Solzhenitsyn's worldview implemented by the new all-Russian elite from 2000 to date, the anti-Westernism of the Federation is, from a spiritual and “metaphysical” point of view, much stronger and more present than in the past Soviet Union.

The moon and the bonfires of the New Year's Eve


But how stupid are the men who dramatize the passing of the year, said the moon looking down on the earth last night. He looked at them from above, plump and lonely, in the light of itself, while they set fire toritual New Year's euphoria. Scream, shots, congratulations, all for nothing, just to sanctify a trifle, a feast not for men nor gods, births nor deaths; agitated to celebrate only the passing of time. To delude ourselves of a transit between the No longer and the Not yet. But how stupid are the inhabitants of the earth, the moon said to herself, what do they have to toast for a day like any other, a handful of moments between the light of a passing year and the unknown darkness of another that comes, and then vice versa. Senseless carousel of time, that only atavistic lunatics can praise, faking farewell and welcome ceremonies to serial lumps of days.

The English “Guardian”: «Boom in the Duce's calendars. Italy wants a strong man"

There must also be a reason, only one, capable of explaining why the further we move away from fascism in time, the more curiosity grows around its founder, Benito Mussolini. Yet the seven decades and more that have passed since the end of the regime and the lost war have all been marked by the demonization of Duce and his damnation of memory. Evidently, something must have gone wrong if, despite the weather, even abroad today there are those - this is the case of the British Guardian -, in an article («Gifts for fascist friends») inspired by boom of sales of Mussolini's calendars, wonders about the growing interest of Italians towards the Duce.

Marcello Veneziani: “Right, it is disheartening to see empty churches at Christmas, but the announcement of the end of Christianity sales is even more disheartening".

The fate of our empty churches, the Pope announces that the sacred places, without believers, they must be reconverted for reception.
On the threshold of Natale the Church announces that it will close due to lack of priests and faithful. I had never heard something like that, and not by any ordinary people or by an irreverent priest but by the Vicar of Christ on earth, the Pope himself. Many churches, Bergoglio said, «necessary until a few years ago, now I'm not anymore, due to lack of faithful and clergy". The Church must adapt to changed times, Francesco continued, he must dismantle the churches and help the poor, since «the duty to protect and conserve the cultural heritage of the Church does not have absolute value, because in case of necessity they must serve the greater good of the human being and especially the service of the poor".

He vest, the crescent moon and the nativity scene

Waiting for the publication of an exclusive interview with Matteo Castagna in the Barcelona newspaper “The Vanguard” on Sunday 30 December…
Of Jerome Bourbon
Article published in the French weekly Rivarol, n° 3358 of the 26 December 2018
As he has done every year since 2014, the Mayor of Béziers, Robert Menard, had set up a nativity scene in his town hall. The administrative court of Montpellier immediately ordered him to remove the nativity scene by 48 hours and also imposed a penalty of 2.000 euros for each day of delay. The judge recalled that «the installation of such a nativity scene, on a temporary basis, on the initiative of a public person, in a public place, it is legally possible only when it has a cultural character, artistic or festive, without expressing recognition of a cult or indicating a religious preference. ».
But who will determine, and according to what criteria, if it is a cultural initiative, festive or religious? The judge of the proceedings, which should rule on the urgency, gives a basic opinion on the nativity scene and arbitrarily decides that it is a religious and not a cultural event. Read More
