Saturday, December 18 last, in the shade of the colonnade of St. Peter, it was concluded the Conference of studies on the Second Vatican Council began on Thursday 16, which has drawn the attention of participants and the whole Church of significant and profound analysis, from a historical - philosophical - theological, declared the "pastoral" to reconcile. The conference was marked by the quality and quantity of speakers, but also for the listeners, including among them S. Emin. Cardinal Walter Brandmüller and the secretary of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei, S. E. mons. Guido Pozzo.

I presenti si sono trovati immersi in uno di quei percorsi della mente e del cuore che lasciano il segno e costituiscono una tappa importante di un itinerario tutto da proseguire.
Abbiamo ascoltato voci ‘sapienti’, trattazioni magistrali, che ci hanno introdotti in modo limpido e avvincente in analisi capaci di aprire molti usci, ulteriori orizzonti di comprensione, che orientano e quindi rinsaldano la nostra identità cattolica mentre, a chi è in ricerca, forniranno chiavi di lettura di una realtà per decenni indirizzata unidirezionalmente verso una autocoscienza della Church shifting and changing according to the hermeneutic of discontinuity of modernist coin. The risk: remove the tree roots and tradition "' vital humus which makes fruitful, very lively and invigorating because it carries a presence, which sanctions the birth certificate ...
tradition 'alive' , then, that always comes back to the origins, never back: this is true Tradition, which has the force of a living organism. Not Tradition 'living' (applicant ambiguity in the terms, subject to multiple interpretations) as defined by novatores , where living takes on the meaning of changing, according to the fashion of the moment, again based on new criteria and revivalist post immanentistic anthropocentric Enlightenment inspired by the sentimental, romantic and in turn provide answers to only questions quotas. And seek to bring the dogma and doctrine to the many variations of the fragile human thought, rather than anchored in Divine Revelation, the supernatural and there ends in the horizontal anthropocentric modernist ...
The conference continues and then completes the clearance of the long heavy silence imposed by the hegemonic culture of modernist, with the refutation increasingly aware of the 'mantra' of uninterrupted celebration of Vatican II, as a result of which you tried to pass the Customs distorting the essence.
And so it starts a fruitful way to deal with all commitment and expertise that will continue to promote the solution, the confrontation between two irreconcilable visions of the church, in fact open Benedict XVI in his address to the Curia 2005, in which the Pope spoke of the contrast between two hermeneutic of the Council: that of 'continuity' and that of the 'discontinuity'. The point where it is part of its coordinates in some recent events:
- è stata dissepolta da una lunga damnatio memoriae l'opera filosofica di Romano Amerio;
- si è imposta l'opera teologica di mons. Gherardini
- ci soccorre la recentissima opera storica del Prof. De Mattei, che mostra l'evidenza, di cui ormai molti sono consapevoli, che i problemi di stesura e di lettura dei testi conciliari nascono ben prima dell'assise vaticana e sono frutto di una teologia e di una filosofia votate alla "rottura" con il passato.
A questo riguardo, e prima di proseguire l'excursus sui lavori del convegno, vorrei evidenziare, dalla Postfazione a I ota unum di Romano Amerio (Ed. Lindau) summarizing the thesis of the book, that the hermeneutic on the Second Vatican Council can be identified today three:
- first: is extremely sophisticated hermeneutics of the "Bologna school" (from Dossetti to Alberigo and then Melloni) and in general of all the "nouvelle théologie" (Congar, Danielou, de Lubac, Ranher, Schillebeeckx, von Balthasar etc.). atheoretical is therefore questionable, and hopefully it promotes the discontinuity and rupture of the essences of Church and former church following the Vatican and a leader, under the cover of textual ambiguity, the second
- : is the hermeneutic moderate sophistry of the Popes who have supported, implemented and then followed the council, is also atheoretical, thus can not be covered (and did not fall) in the dogma: it is not binding, but unlike the first, however, that the form and produced, it studies all the way to provide continuity between pre-and post-conciliar essence, trying to bend the meaning of Tradition ambiguity and equivocation text highlighted by Romano Amerio and now other prominent theologians and historians of our time;
- the third: is truthful hermeneutics of America and, in general, of all those Catholics pushed (but only after the session of Vatican II) in the so-called "traditionalism" - Then that is not an ism, but love for tradition, hermeneutics of America and theoretical truthful, unquestionable and therefore, insofar as it supports the Customs, binding, and it found the complaint in an attempt to break the Vatican and discontinuity with the essence: just remember the religious freedom, ecumenism at all costs with the risk of homogenization and loss of Catholic identity, the savage cuts to the structure of the ancient Roman Rite. It should be added, however, that, by faith, the impracticability of such an attempt is by all lovers of tradition and absolutely believe America, as described above, and in the Afterword shown (§ 3 b, pp. 698 ff) also firmly established, so that the highest throne and the entire Church may come back soon to benefit.
At the point where we can scarcely imagine that, in the crash said the progressive school, can not stand those torn-between between the finding of the disaster and the obsessive repetition of the mantra that the reason for crisis would be the lack of full implementation of the council.
Returning to the Congress: after it was given to Bishop Negri, Bishop Gherardini [ deepen in the article will be devoted to ad hoc ] said that the Vatican was not, just because they had to be, a dogmatic council and all in all not regulate. Just wanted to be pastoral. The word covers all the documents and the areas that the council is as an adjective as an adjective, noun. Yet despite the many internal and external interventions, the true meaning of its Pastoral Statement is still in the fog ... This calls for at this point, a calm and objective opinion on the overall quality of Vatican II, which was hastily closed and naively pastoral area. Those familiar with not only the Gaudium et Spes, but With all sixteen conciliar documents, is well aware that the thematic variety and the corresponding methodology place the Vatican II su quattro livelli, qualitativamente distinti:
- quello generico, del Concilio ecumenico in quanto Concilio ecumenico;
- quello specifico del taglio pastorale;
- quello dell’appello ad altri Concili;
- quello delle innovazioni.
Si è evidenziato (1) come la lettura progressista enfatizzi il concilio come "evento" fondante della "nuova Pentecoste" e, dando priorità all'evento-impulso di novità che si voleva imprimere, ha fatto e fa sì che l'evento assorba il testo e lo sposti nella sua ricezione, ma si è anche constatato con De Mattei come le pericolose spinte eversive, dentro e fuori l'aula conciliare, non abbiano dato vita ad un soggetto in qualche modo nuovo; il che ha espulso dall' orizzonte storiografico il concetto mitico di "evento conciliare", eliminando automaticamente con esso quello di "nuova chiesa".
Tuttavia, nella pastorale, e quindi nella prassi, qualcosa di significativo è accaduto e le 'novità' di fatto introdotte hanno avuto gli effetti che oggi stiamo constatando, oscurando e in molti casi silenziando (anche il silenzio comunica qualcosa) le verità di fede, che vanno riaffermate con la dovuta chiarezza e veritativa autorità. Su questo si sono trovati concordi i relatori nelle loro conclusioni.
A questo proposito, Mons. Schneider, dopo a long and detailed overview of a theological pastoral on "the lights of the Council" - which lie at that level, quoted by Bishop Gherardini, in which the council takes up the truth already defined - said that the 'breaking' is manifested in turning anthropocentric and in liturgy, while in Sacrosantum Concilium there's no trace, and is detectable in the noise hermeneutic of conflicting applications and heterodox groups. In conclusion, he called for a "syllabus" with doctrinal value, with additions and corrections authorities in this field of liturgical and pastoral.
Other reports have offered ideas and basic caveats: philosophical analysis of modernity; the facts and influences in the Council, on the ongoing formation of clergy in the light of the PO, where they conducted experiments pastoral on the distinction between dogmatic and pastoral principles in practice, renovation on the inside of the Tradition on Sacrosanctum Concilium and the its application, the right building up the Church.
With this reflection I wanted to make my own 'the boat' of the situation. In future articles of joint account reflections from the synthesis of the most significant reports of the distinguished speakers, to be published in full, organized by the Franciscans of the Immaculate Conception, will be available shortly.

Serafino Lanzetta, la cui relazione sull'approccio teologico allo status questionis [che approfondiremo successivamente] consente una verifica delle diverse posizioni ermeneutiche attraverso alcuni autori come modelli che ritornano (Card. Parente, Rahner, Laurentin, Kung,...) e sviluppa la sua analisi attraverso tre punti salienti:
- il Vaticano II è instrinsecamente compromesso?
- nella difficoltà ermeneutica si nasconde la carenza della metafisica: problema di forma e di sostanza (la modernità fa losing clarity accusing the legal dogmatism, but set aside the metaphysical significance is the faith that is put aside in a corner);
- need to identify areas of misunderstanding theological positions to the right orientation hermeneutic
