Tender Breasts On The Outside

On Sundays and croissants

Sunday morning is usually Yuki thinks that the employees of the restaurant for breakfast, lunch on Sunday is the last shift of the week after which it finally arrives the day off and then possibly we are often in a comatose (x work on Saturday evening) but with the complacent smile of one who knows that soon will arrive well-deserved rest ... I said precisely that Sunday morning he arrives with a tray of croissants "bar around the corner and entertain us in a brief and fleeting picevolmente breakfast between one thing and do another on Sunday morning though for us it is a day job "is not equal to no other, just a different smell "as it is different even my mood, usually I am always very happy and I hum and whistle around the kitchen," which will have a poor mad but this Sunday, even on the morning of the day before, I cornettini prepared for our breakfast .. this morning in a seemingly quiet, imagine if in the middle of the first round of dough start to come the first unexpected guests ... between a charge and another I could make these cornettini perhaps better than I usually do at home even if the recipe is the same .. but in the kitchen of a restaurant's leavened dough that is wonderful ... as usual the photos are not fantastic but when I do the work can not be there to organize the set and then "right first time "!!!!! recipe is taken from puff pastry and michael roux find the link at the top right, I made it and rebuilt many times with or without yeast to rise very short, short or long, and always was excellent ...
25 g fresh yeast

250 ml milk 500 g white flour 12 g salt

50 gdi
sugar 275g of butter in the pastry rounds
Dissolve yeast in milk. Put the flour, salt and sugar in the planetary mix at low speed and with the hook and gradually add the milk with yeast. As soon as the dough comes away from the wall is smooth and is ready to rise 1 hour, Deflate the dough and let rise for 4 to 8 hours in the fridge ... but I made two risings of 1 hour ciascuna.Intanto flatten the butter between two sheets of film with the help of a beat meat or a rolling pin. Roll out the dough and place the butter in the center close it with strips of pasta that come out and stretch the dough into a rectangle: Fold a corner of the rectangle toward the center and then the other over the first, impellicolare everything and let stand in refrigerator for 30 minutes, repeat twice more. This link shows you how to make cornettini after the 3rd round of pastry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_VQZXC7GLQ&feature=related
After the pieces you can choose to freeze them or let them rise for 2 hours, brush with egg and milk mixtures and bake at 170 degrees for 12 minutes. If we remember that frozen before cooking should be a night to thaw and rise covered with a sheet of foil loosely and resting on a cloth napkin.

Pastor Anniversary Invitation

Two new texts of Bishop Brunero Gherardini, other milestones to keep the tradition betrayed

The author
Brunero Gherardini, priest of the Diocese of Prato and canon of St. Peter's Basilica, was professor of ecclesiology at the Pontifical Lateran University. Among his many books include the most recent real milestone for the development of reflection and awareness regarding the true extent of innovation council: Second Vatican Council. An issue with (2009), Quod vobis et tradidi. The Tradition of the Church life and youth (2010). His latest efforts are the two texts presented here (2011)

The book

Brunero Gherardini, Quaecumque dixero vobis Lindau, 2011

'S and you know the Church, not to ignore the tradition. If you ignore the tradition, never speaks of the Church . "

Asked which Tradition", this book answers: not the tradition that picks up along the way, especially from the Enlightenment to the present, everything new, even the most subversive of its identity, to be able to say à la page and living tradition, but the living tradition as conveyed by Christ and the Apostles to the Church because it to welcome, protect, interpret and convey the centuries faithfully and in full, which is drawn to its dual source speaking and writing, as witnessed by the Fathers of the Church, taught by the great councils, especially since Trent and Vatican I, and determined by theological science in harmony with developments in the living Word, eodem sensu eademque sententia.
.....................................

The book:

Brunero Gherardini Second Vatican Council. The speech failed Lindau, 2011

The author believes that the Sermon to do, as the title of his Previous work on the Vatican Second Vatican Council. An issue with , Casa Mariana Editrice, 2009 Frigento is not for Christians today, for the priests, the Church itself, an option among many, but a real necessity . And so it is sad that, until now, despite the intersection of so-called hermeneutical the delivery is not . In this booklet explains the reason for this omission, which identifies not so much in the currents after the Council, as in ' line taken right from the start by the Council Fathers.

Among the spirit in which they undertook the celebration of the Council and sixteen documents acquired in the course of it there is a perfectly logical: the refusal, in fact, plans officially prepared, with which the Council took the start, he could not give rise to these documents, with their address, as their openings. And from these, precisely because such an attitude could not spring to break with the past . This, mind you, does not mean a no to the council, to whom the author identifies four distinct levels, assigning each a different value [see also ].

Despite the need for clarity to tell it like it is, the fact remains that the Vatican II è un Concilio autentico, il cui insegnamento e le cui innovazioni, pur in assenza di valore dogmatico, costituiscono un innegabile magistero conciliare, e quindi supremo e solenne.

Men's Hooded Bathrobe The Find

Liturgy evolving? New 'attack' to the Customs by the Osservatore Romano

Parto da una premessa per nulla estranea all'argomento presentato nel titolo, che sviluppo nell'esposizione successiva.

Premessa

Stiamo assistendo a grandi mutamenti anche nell'architettura sacra, emblema dell'iconoclastia del Sacro della nostra epoca. Il nostro Osservatorio sul Cammino neocatecumenale ci spinge a tornare sulla liturgia e sulla trasformazione delle chiese insieme allo distortion of sacred spaces by means of the "new aesthetic " kikiana. One can easily see from the photos easy to find so many churches founded by the NC, as along the main axis of the nave are arranged in a straight line: the source (a puddle) baptismal , the ' altar, the' ambo and most recently the presidential seat .
This provision is not random or simply aesthetic, but meets a specific criterion symbol of the beginning, which would create a strong sense of user-friendly through the Eucharist Neocatechumenals. According to him, the parish-church (in essence, the NC Community which will surely replace them) is seen as a woman in labor : the altar represents the woman's belly; on the table of the Eucharist, in fact, there is the "Lord's Supper " and does not return to the Father, so bloodless, the offer of the sacrifice of Jesus, died for our salvation, but people eat of His Body and His Blood with reference to the Passover rather than the Last Supper. The ambo is the woman's mouth (ambo it proclaims the word of the Lord), and finally there is the presidential seat representing the woman's head . The baptismal font is the uterus. The priest is merely the chairman of the celebrant, a sort of primus inter pares whose charisma is simply minister . Is lacking the traditional figure of the 'Alter Christus . The priest no longer attend in place of Christ, but symbolizes the Christ, while the common priesthood of the faithful shall, as more and more diluted, the ministerial. If someone could come up with that "woman" represents Maria Mater Ecclesiae , if they immediately remove from the mind, because it represents "the community", a sort of hypostatization newly minted in the Church of Christ.

Customs denied and further attacks

All of these factors, unrelated to an authentic Catholic worship, but the similarities in the trials are favored by the progressive leitmotiv of the Church: " a constant concern of the great Christian tradition faithfully transmit the core of the faith, updating its forms to make them understandable and meaningful celebration in the life of people of all ages . "

I have taken these words from an article in the Osservatore Romano of these days on a recent conference held Rome [ see full text], which is a condensation of thought vaticanosecondista dominant ideology in terms of architecture and liturgy. The content, however, smoky and highly praising innovation always in the spirit-of-council, and it alarmed us not a little disconcerting, given the fact that recently, the Cardinal Canizares said that the reform of the reform "- which seems finally abandoned to make way for the "new liturgical movement" that is "bottom up" [ talked about that here ] - mean the recovery of full adherence and "completion" of the directives of the Council concerning the liturgy, resumed its Osservatore Romano. Here are some excerpts:
The High Middle Ages, teaches us that the evolution of the rite is being inside history
History of Christianity and the liturgy; continuity and change in the liturgy, the early centuries of tradition and innovation are the three themes who have crossed, and summarized the conference "Liturgies and cultures between the age of Gregory the Great and Leo III. ritual aspects, and institutional ecclesiological" which took place on 24 and 25 February at the European University of Rome. We publish the conclusions of the Deputy Director of our newspaper.

[...] But the liturgy is a matter of life or death for the Church, if it fails to bring the faithful and so that they are themselves to accomplish it, has failed in its task and has lost its right to exist. [...]

would be important to a new season with enthusiasm and effort on the part of the liturgists convinced of the goodness of the conciliar reform to better communicate the nature and direction of the reform and expand a conscious and active participation in the Eucharist and the other sacraments. Explain the flexibility already contained in the Roman Missal approved and the importance of a complete reception of Vatican II Dei Verbum and to tune seriously with the liturgy of the Church. In the age of multimedia and digital communications' s aphasia liturgical nonsense and a ballast for the credibility of the Christian.
[...]
The Church still needs many who devote themselves with passion to the liturgy and who know how to put the center of history and meaning of life the search for God, like Don Luigi Della Torre (1930-1996), a great liturgist and pastor of the diocese of the Pope was one of those happy priests of their vocation and therefore more free of spirit that have translated the conciliar liturgical reform in Italy in a new ecclesial life. He may suggest a method and a concrete pastoral path. He was convinced that the proposal in the liturgy Sacrosanctum Concilium was the catechism of choice for a good Christian life because the prayer of the Church adapts the minds and hearts of the faithful to the Word of God and urges those who take part in our time with sincerity, the imitation of Christ.
Well, a hint of the background Don Luigi Della Torre, referred to Di Cicco:
"... especially in the period immediately after the year in which it was nascent status, the Neocatechumenal attracted top representatives of the renewal progressive Catholic liturgy and culture. Among these supporters of the first hour there was Don Luigi Della Torre , skilled liturgist, parish priest in Rome's Church of the Nativity as a Gaul, near the Franco Rhone-Communist Catholic thinker. The Church of Nativity, with the next pastor, had revolutionized the architecture of its interior according to the dictates of Kiko. "

I will not dwell on reported individual songs, which are answered in the discussions that follow, but I can not remove the word "aphasia", which hit me like a slap (in the transcript above, I marked in bold). If you are forced to establish a 'liturgical aphasia, there is clear evidence that lacks a presence in the liturgy, that of the Living Word, who speaks and creates same time, that our Lord in Body and Blood Soul and Divinity, the true protagonist of the celebration. Let me add a remark:

The article is filled with many beautiful words, some even desirable, but if the Liturgy of the Eucharist flowed from Vatican II (it's really true reading better Sacrosanctum Concilium ?) Is The most obvious result of the 'new Pentecost':
  • there almost no doubt, given the results?
  • is only required action by the liturgists apologetic or even a recovery of sound doctrine and teachings to the faithful in their expressions of worship?
  • if leaps forward minority were still waiting for new expressions through the "new liturgical movement"?
  • if salus animarum support and push the Consilium , can only be the result of general de-Christianization of the fact that since 1970 at least 50% of students have left the Church in practice and beliefs?
  • is just so irrelevant way of being the official prayer of the Church?
  • is just so irrelevant given the ecclesiology, I would say subliminally, the Liturgical Reform?
  • Reform? We remind you of something?
Here is the reflection - dates back to 2007, but remains very current - an interlocutor with whom we have entered into genuine dialogue and is now 'out' from the path nc:
"Why in the hearts and minds of people there is this need to "blatant ", ie make a Liturgy attractive? The answer, I believe, is that materialism has so permeated our lives, however, which has lost all sense of sacred mystery. You do not go to a liturgy because it is an event that affects the spiritual planes, and then there Heavenly projects in the Assembly, but what matters is the form, a form that must be nice and can be so only if the ceremony is adapted to our tastes.
Just to stay in theme-blog, is clear that the celebrations in the CN incorporate much of this need that people have to adapt the liturgy to their own tastes by introducing new modes of behavior and signs . I do not want food with this new controversy, but I think that saying "we discover the origins" and as freeze the action of the Lord in the history note at the beginning.
fact or consider that the Lord intervenes in history primarily through the liturgy and that therefore the Holy Spirit to drive changes through the centuries, illuminating the Church (Understood in this case necessarily as Pope, Cardinals and Bishops and to whom we owe obedience). The rest is inventive staff, maybe even good but we are in the discretion of the individual. "
We were always aware, and we have repeatedly argued that its climate has encouraged the proliferation of reconciling path n, while the ' current hegemonic modernist culture has fostered an approval to put it mildly abnormal. Anomaly that is contributing considerably to the pollution of our Church.

Before the Council there was a God-centered vision of life, religion and the world. Since Vatican II, the vision has become anthropocentric. " What you need to man ? ", Instead of " that give worship to God ? "Where there is everything that man needs God in

We're talking about Church 'visible', although not all. Let's say that we speak of the Church who picked up a governing power improperly with the 'pastoral', ie with the practice (unbiased) rather than a doctrine of definition and in continuity with the Tradition. That part of the Church, we must recognize that despite our mutated CAN NOT 'be the church, but a counterfeit.

At this point I have no answers, except entrusts to the Lord and keep Faith, trying to spread as long as I can. In fact, do not take it for granted that the 'mutation' which was the subject of the Church, for the fact that at the moment is winning the majority, which is the part alone. Truth is not in the consensus of more and only choosing according to their conscience, we choose the truth. If we choose the fashion of the time, we would do so at our peril ... And 'why, for me, I gave up long ago, and realistically, to place hope in this' pastoral' apostate who has been the admission that is nothing but a pseudo-apostolic revelation. I can not but take note, but I can never join in consciousness or nor in spirit and in truth ...

Yet at this point I would like to point out the increasing evidence of the two (and maybe more, unfortunately) anime recognizable in the visible Church of our time, which is now difficult to navigate and unravel the tangle of innovations and misinformation passed off as spirit reconcile the dominant culture continues to weave and carry on, trying to delegitimize any voice trying to 'show' the Catholic truth without disguise or modernists, or by so-called 'new Pentecost'.

And I would also like to emphasize that these different souls are in fact allied coining the vulgate of As unlikely as a mysterious "traditionalist Protestantism" itself as "conservative" ... the Council! In fact, conservatives of today are those who want to preserve the so-called spirit of the council doing it - they put in a corner of the dogmas subjecting them to an absurd developments - a new untouchable "superdogma ...

note that the term "conservative" does not fit with Tradition, which 'preserves ' in the sense that ' guards', the "deposit of faith " Apostolic, but at the same time does not store any kind of fixism , which suits her as she is alive in the sense insegnato da mons. Gherardini, della “ continuità evolutiva ”, che esclude tutti quei criteri immanentistici che si sono imposti, dall’Illuminismo ad oggi, sia alla filosofia che alla teologia. Gli Apostoli ci hanno lasciato quanto da Cristo avevano ricevuto ratione ecclesiae , non i carismi personali ma le verità riguardanti la Fede e la Chiesa. So di averlo già detto, ma repetita iuvant .

I Padri la chiamano Traditio Dominica o Traditio Apostolica “lo Spirito Santo vi ricorderà tutte le cose che vi ho insegnato io” (Gv 14, 26). L’ insufflatio dello Spirito [Presente nella Chiesa: where is the Son is the Father and the Holy Spirit] does not cover one or more, but " quaecumque dixero vobis" means all things, acquisitions ever deeper, new and old ( Jn 16:13).

The sourdough pizza for breakfast


The dough to rise natural are a topic on which We would a myriad di parole da spendere , discorsi chilometrici su come avanzare passo dopo passo cercando di non essere frettolosi ma piuttosto consapevoli di quello che si staper fare...per me è stato amore a prima vista e se non ricordo male la mia passione per la cucina è born just in time that ... the natural leavening is very slow and the first time you can stay a little disappointed by bread that we baked simply because we not accustomed to its flavor and to its consistency true ... questo avviene anche per la pizza troppo spesso interpretata male, fatta senza un briciolo di consapevolezza e conoscenza dell'impasto...avevo sempre fatto il pane, ma mai mi sarei sognata di fare anche la pizza...vi parlo ovviamente della pizza in teglia quella che possiamo fare in qualsiasi forno di casa, la ricetta è del mitico Bonci grande sostenitore del lievito madre...vi chiederete perchè aspettare 24 lunghissime ore per mangiarla, ma il perchè sta nel risultato, il perchè sta nel sapore e nella consistenza, il perchè is the smell, the feel satisfied because he is in, the answers to why they are different but all related to our senses in relation to which the simple words are of little use ...


400g flour 100g wholemeal flour 00 g yeast

100 350 / 400 g water 25 g extra virgin olive oil



7 g salt Mix all ingredients, Bonci recommends giving un'impastata summary, let stand a few minutes and mix again, I put all the ingredients into the bowl of the planetary and I took the jar until the mixture has become smooth, trvasato all in a greased bowl, covered with plastic and left to rise in 24 hours bottom of the fridge ... spent This time I knocked over the dough on a lightly floured board and divided into two halves at this point should be transferred in two pans and spread carefully so as not to spill all the carbon dioxide that the yeast has patiently created. .. I made the dough in pan for about an hour .. I served with sausage, rosemary and pepper and cover with mashed potatoes and grated cheese from Ragusa, I baked at 200 ° for 20 minutes about ten of them on the bottom of the pizza oven ... you see I made it to the restaurant where I work as a dinner for the staff (even then I felt at home again and again) ... In fact, the photos are not cared for quickly the service but I think that still make the idea ....
Tips:
Lasciare sempre l'impasto qualche ora fuori dal frigo per farlo tornare a temperatura ambiente così che i lieviti abbiano il tempo di darsi nuovamente da fare nel caso in cui durante la manipolazione la pizza si sia sgonfiata eccessivamente.
Dopo aver lessato le patate passatele per 15 minuti in forno a 180° così da asciugarle maggiormente ed evitare che inumidiscano troppo la superficie della pizza.
Le erbe aromatiche, spezie varie vanno protette (quando si può) in questo caso dalla coltre di patate in altri casi dalla mozzarella.

Littlest Pet Shop Birthday Clipart

Clouds



After several attempts, I finally managed to find a recipe suitable to the home of sliced \u200b\u200bbread ... I say finally because after you have tried and tried the recipe at home of the restaurant where I work and after opening the box each time with a disappointing outcome, "NOW" to my surprise I saw him come out from the holes in the lid of the box that leavened dough to wonder .... what I wonder is: are there recipes and restaurant recipes at home? I thought that too much butter and the environment certainly cooler than the kitchen of a restaurant they had not allowed it to rise ... I thought that my balance was beginning to show signs of slowing down wrong ... I thought that the weighted the yeast mother needed her home to work, but perhaps the most obvious thing is that the global kneads my mom's not much good, and then the mixture remains despite the time it takes to run smooth and never becomes gluteina fails to develop mechanisms for how it should ... so inexplicable that can damage the psyche of a woman who has waited so that the dough to take shape and consistency ... but my sisters have Such a remedy for everything, so after peeled their book, I open the drawer where I keep all the tools and see the cake box "poor box, I bought you with much love and you can not get anything good, anything that looks like a white bread ..." tries again con la ricetta delle simili...ed ecco che esce fuori...le Simili usano lievito di birra, io ho voluto provare una lievitazione mista usando poco lievito di birra...

500g di bianca (io ho usato 350 g bianca e 150g lievito madre)
20 g lievito di birra ( io ne ho usato 10 g)
20 g burro o strutto
1o g sale
250g acqua(io avendo usato un lievito madre molto idratato ho messo 150 grammi d'acqua circa)
1 cucchiaino di zucchero
1 cucchiaino di malto
1cassetta 35x10
Semplicemente metto tutto in planetaria e la faccio girare a velocità moderata fin quando l'impasto non diventa liscio e si stacca dalle pareti...per la lievitazione non c'è un tempo ben preciso ma di sicuro è pronto quando the dough "runs away" from the holes of the box .. the oven I use is a perfectly normal non-ventilated electric oven with no particular function .. I put it to maximum and I do warm up x 20 minutes, bake the loaf pan for about half an hour -40 minutes

Foot Supination Exercise

Every thought flies ...

A year has almost past since the last post, and the times when I thought I'd write something so many, so many times that I went for the head to put a sign saying "I'll be right", but I thought that this "now" could not have a near-term ... a cooking blog is alive if you can cook something postabile, then as in my case it may happen that they can count on your fingers the times I used a pan to cook a home ... too much time passes in the kitchen of a restaurant and in the few remaining hours of the day to think about everything except ... that to cook many things have changed this year and many things have changed again to return to equilibrium of all time, and perhaps the new-found serenity and the cyclical nature of events gave me back the desire to mess in my kitchen, even if with haste and with the times marked by breaks between shift and alt ro ... the day off like flies and my thoughts as the words carved on the great stone face of the monster park Bomarzo ...
Questa brioche è presa da un libro molto interessante sulla sfoglia e la frolla e le loro varianti, dalla pasta per croissant alla frolla con lo strutto, lo trovate qui: http://www.guidotommasi.it/ultimi-nati/frollasfoglia/ (perdonatemi ma non riesco ad inserire i link :-o)


70 ml di latte tiepido
15 g di lievito di birra
500 g di farina 00
15 g di sale
6 uova
350 g di burro
30 g di zucchero

1 tuorlo sbattuto con un cucchiaio di latte
Sciogliere il lievito nel latte. Mettere la farina, il sale, le uova nella ciotola della planetaria con il gancio e versare il latte, impastare a bassa velocità per 5 minuti.Aumentare di poco la velocità e impastare per 10 minuti. In un'altra ciotola mescolare il burro e lo zucchero e unirli poco per volta all'impasto che continuerà a girare nella planetaria..l'impasto è pronto quando avrà un aspetto liscio e si staccherà dalle pareti...coprire la ciotola con la pellicola e lasciar lievitare sino al raddoppio (un'ora e mezza circa). Impastare la pasta dando un paio di girate coprire nuovamente e lasciare lievitare tutta la notte in frigo. Staccare about 20
0g and set it aside from mixing with the other piece to make a ball and place it on the bottom of the mold and press with a finger in the center to create a forum where it will be added on the smaller piece of dough molded into an oval shape, brush the surface of the pastry with egg and milk and let rise for about an hour and a half. Before baking practice cuts with scissors. Bake at 200 degrees for 15 minutes, lower the temperature to 170 degrees and cook for 30 minutes.

Pctv Center Pro Seriennummer

A crucial question ...

I read, today proposed Feast of the Chair of St. Peter A Fides, the Credo of the People of God "by Paul VI. And my attention focuses on the following song, which I hit the sentence that I highlighted in bold. Then enter an old debate, which accounts for why the sentence strikes me and leaves me open question. The reflection is redundant with the phrase, but I left because I think integrates useful for me and for many, retracing what the Eucharist. I'll be very grateful to anyone, even a priest, will respond.
"... We believe that the Mass celebrated by the priest representing the person of Christ by virtue of the power received in the Sacrament of Orders, and offered by him in the name of Christ and members of his Body Monk, is the sacrifice of Calvary rendered sacramentally present on our altars. We believe that as the bread and wine consecrated by the Lord at the Last Supper were changed into His Body and His blood which soon be offered for us on the Cross allo stesso modo il pane e il vino consacrati dal sacerdote sono convertiti nel Corpo e nel Sangue di Cristo gloriosamente regnante nel cielo ; e crediamo che la misteriosa presenza del Signore, sotto quello che continua ad apparire come prima ai nostri sensi, è una presenza vera, reale e sostanziale..."

L'Eucaristia è il memoriale della Passione, il compimento delle figure dell'Antica Alleanza, la più grande di tutte le meraviglie operate da Cristo.

Cosa AVVIENE sull'Altare? Dopo preghiere preparatorie e il momento solenne delle Letture, il sacerdote offre il pane e il vino: è l'offerta o Offertorio ; questi elementi stanno per be transformed into the Body and Blood of our Lord. The priest then invites the faithful and the heavenly spirits to surround the altar ( Pray brothers and Preface which will become a new Calvary), to accompany him with praise, gifts and worship the holy az ion. After that, he entered quietly in more intimate communion with God comes the moment of Consecration. Extends his hands on the offers, as he did in the old high priest on the victim to be sacrificed; repeats ( not tell) all the gestures and the words of Christ at the Last Supper when he instituted the sacrifice: In the night he was betrayed ... Then, identified with Christ, He pronounced the ritual words: "This is my body . .." "This is My Blood ...".

These words, spoken by the One "through whom all things were created", they do change the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. To express its will and its formal establishment, makes Christ truly and substantially present with his divinity and his humanity, in appearances that remain as they are and however, if the materials remain hidden from our senses, enliven the spiritual.

Words, Actio divine, of Christ himself who is Altar, Victim, Priest and Sacrifice, by which the sacrifice is accomplished. By virtue of the words: This is my Body given up for you ", Christ, for the mediation of a priest, turns in his flesh the species of bread with the words: This is my blood" poured for you ", turns in his blood the species of wine. This separates Christ mystically in his flesh and blood, who on the Cross were physically separated, and the separation of which resulted in the death and subsequent burial also was subjected to even get in this ultimate and tragic moment of our 'step' the shores of eternity.

And here, the Resurrection. He himself can not die any more: death has no power over him (Rom 6:9). The separation of his Body and his Blood on the altar that makes it mystical. The same Christ who was sacrificed on the Cross, was sacrificed on the altar, but in a different way, and this sacrifice, accompanied by the offering, is a real sacrifice.

Communion continues the Sacrifice, is the last important act of the Mass. The ritual of consummation of the victim to complete the expression of the idea of \u200b\u200bchange and especially the bond that is found throughout the Sacrifice . By coming together so closely that the victim has been replaced, man immolated, so to speak, more [Marmion, Christ the life of the soul ] eating the Host, which has become sacred and holy thing, we share the power of God and only made by the consecration of Christ we tender our life, that is to offer our bodies "as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual worship" (Romans 12 Paul, 1-2)

the Mass, the victim is Christ himself, God and man, so communion is the act for the excellence of union with the Lord, is the best and most intimate participation in these fruits of the covenant and divine life which gives us the sacrifice of Christ. If participation is mystical, but our food, the living Bread which came down from heaven, is the Lamb slain before the Risen Lord. Now is indistinguishable, but what the Lord commands us in the same and gives us and invites us to live up to the end of time I should never be overlooked. I stress this because today is the widespread tendency to concentrate everything in Paschal Mystery, which is all well and good, but it tends to accentuate the Resurrection and to live alone.

So then, the Mass is not only a representation or a 'memorial' in the sense of commemoration of the sacrifice of the Cross does not have the value of a simple ricordo. E' sì un ricordo "ogni volta che farete questo lo fate in memoria di me"; ma è un ricordo che ri-attualizza; ed è un vero sacrificio, come quello del Calvario, che essa riproduce e riproducendolo lo perpetua e ne applica i frutti fino alla fine dei tempi.

Quando partecipiamo al Santo Sacrificio, nel quale Gesù, vittima divina, si offre a Dio come sul Calvario, il Padre riceve da questa offerta, un omaggio di valore infinito, veramente degno delle sue perfezioni. Infatti, per opera di Gesù Cristo, Uomo-Dio, Figlio suo, immolato e adorato sull'altare: per Lui, con Lui e in Lui sale a Dio Padre Onnipotente, nell'unità dello Spirito Santo, ogni onore and glory, for ever and ever.

's just so that our soul, full of wonder to be the object of divine complacency, exclaims: "Lord, how can I, poor creature, return your many benefits? Although you did not need my goods, however, just that I recognize your infinite goodness: how can I thank you with dignity: How can I repay the Lord for me? ". This is the cry of the priest, who becomes the cry of the whole Church, after the communion with the Host. And what response the Church places on his lips? I will lift up the cup of salvation ...". " retribuam Domino Quid pro omnibus quae mihi paid work? Calicem salutaris accipiam: et Nomen Domini invocabo "(Salmo 116,12). Invocazione che possiamo far nostra, partecipando anche col far nostre tutte le altre sublimi preghiere preparatorie e successive, ad eccezione della formula Consacratoria.

La Messa è l'azione di grazie per eccellenza, la più perfetta e la più gradita che possiamo rendere a Dio, durante la quale il Signore ci porta con Sé sul Calvario e, poi, oltre una tomba vuota, nel mondo della Risurrezione.

Ci dice S. Tommaso: "Nessun sacramento in realtà è più salutare di questo: per sua virtù vengono cancellati i peccati, crescono le buone disposizioni, and the mind is enriched with all spiritual gifts. In the Church, the Eucharist is offered for the living and the dead, because it is beneficial to all, having been instituted for the salvation of all. "Why is it in Heaven and the Church Triumphant yesterday today tomorrow's opening on our land. If everyone is to receive the Lord and so to be generated and re-elect him and become one in him: the more that your Holy People - as now most commonly expressed, that seems to find a flavor Old Testament and shows no trace of his name - the Mystical Body of Christ, His Church.

The Gospel tells us first to establish that this sacrifice, Jesus gave thanks to the Father. S. Paul uses the same expression and the Church has kept this term in preference to others, while not excluding other expressions to describe the offering of the altar, which is why the Eucharistic sacrifice means sacrifice of thanksgiving: the Eucharist. sacrifice and not just feasting, deep inner joy and exultation desecrating adoring, Offer Atonement Repair before becoming Resurrection, Christ the Lord ...

Seregno, February 25, 2011 - "The Last Mass of Padre Pio"

I receive and gladly public

On 25 February, invited by the Cultural Circle John Henry Newman, and Don Alberto Secci Alessandro Gnocchi will present " The last Mass of Padre Pio. The secret soul of the saint of the stigmata . The initiative is a natural continuation of the previous dedicated to the relationship between Newman and the Mass of Blessed always. You may not in fact understand the English cardinal and monk Petralcina if not from the Mass of St. Pius V. Padre Pio: the saint of the stigmata, but also the saint of the Mass of all time. The Capuchin friar loved to celebrate Mass because it represented "a complete sacred with the passion of Jesus" and in it, the monk tried the sufferings endured by Christ during the Passion. From the red sores that formed on the body of his father rose up to God's glory e la salvezza dei fratelli.

L’incontro si svolgerà a Seregno, alle ore 21.00, presso la Sala Civica Mons. Gandini, via XXIV maggio.

How Many Electric Cars Have Been Sold In 2009

Chronicle voices of hope, expectation and disappointment, perhaps on the "Reform" of the Liturgy

Così scrive oggi Tornielli sul suo blog Sacri Palazzi . Gli fa eco Paolo Rodari su Il Foglio sempre di oggi, 9 febbraio:
Sarà pubblicato nelle prossime settimane un documento di Benedetto XVI che riorganizza le competenze della Congregazione del culto divino affidandole il compito di promuovere una liturgia più fedele alle intenzioni originarie del Concilio Vaticano II, con meno spazi per i cambiamenti arbitrari e per il recupero di una dimensione di maggiore sacralità . Il documento, che avrà la forma di un motu proprio, è frutto di una lunga gestazione – lo hanno rivisto dal Pontificio consiglio per l’interpretazione dei testi legislativi e gli uffici della Segreteria di Stato – ed è motivato principalmente dal trasferimento della competenza sulle cause matrimoniali alla Rota Romana. Si tratta delle cause cosiddette del «rato ma non consumato», cioè riguardanti il matrimonio avvenuto in chiesa ma non compiutosi per la mancata unione carnale dei due sposi. Sono circa cinquecento casi all’anno, e interessano soprattutto alcuni Paesi asiatici dove ancora esistono i matrimoni combinati girls with a very young age, but also Western countries for those cases of psychological impotence to make the conjugal act .... To the Journal in an interview published on the eve of last Christmas, Cañizares said: "The liturgical reform was carried out very quickly. There were good intentions and a desire to apply the Vatican. But there was no precipitation ... The liturgical renewal was seen as a research laboratory, the fruit of imagination and creativity, the magic word that time "...
A first reflection hot

I would not anticipate or fear or hope, waiting to see how you configure the innovation and what concrete steps will be able to give change, particularly with respect to liturgical abuses.

However, because of references to Cardinal Cañizares and his interview , I can not express concern because a liturgical movement that starts from the bottom and in danger of being inspired to hyperactivity, all'arrembanza, innovations as well as some questionable move, quite frankly gives me the chills ... Especially if we consider that an area so serious and sacred as the Liturgy, which brings us the breath of the apostolic faith and enriched by generations of the great saints who have preceduto, non può essere messo in mano né a laici cosiddetti ispirati o carismatici, né a liturghi improvvisati e neppure costruito a tavolino (come accaduto per il NO).

Qualunque modifica, dunque, non può in ogni caso nascere dal basso , ma deve sgorgare dalla fede viva e dalla preghiera e dalla 'sapienza' di chi ha dimestichezza e conoscenza anche storica -in riferimento alla Tradizione- ma soprattutto spirituale delle "cose sacre" e della Liturgia, che davvero è la fonte e il culmine della nostra Fede e, poiché lex orandi è lex credendi , ogni innovazione deve rifuggire sia dalle improvvisazioni, from both trials, and the spirits who have lost touch with tradition and give us that, unfortunately, no shortage of dramatic try again.

Our innovative, even today, they see the Liturgy as well as the tradition-with-historicist criteria, which we think of both evolving according to the times; but it makes no sense to speak of evolution, because the liturgy and tradition can not evolve in the sense historicist in the sense of being subjected to radical shifts that distort the main thrust of the Liturgy and Tradition increasingly away from the roots, on the pretext of a supposed emphasized, can not return to the roots. There is, however, and is still alive a tradition that knows no change and evolution (also the evolution of dogma is a principle clearly "modernist") while retaining the essence of the original Apostolic Revelation.

You can do a thousand speeches on the fact that the liturgy could mutate, so as to create a new preface or introduction of a new production based on sanctoral updated. This is to update, renovate, not to manage the evolution .

Rather, there is a risk that the Gregorian Mass, called " never repealed, is disfigured with the pretext of 'mutual enrichment"? Meminisse horret nell'idea di una contaminazione di un tesoro che ci è pervenuto intatto nella struttura essenziale (pensando soprattutto al canone Romano) dal Sacramentario Gelasiano, dal rispetto di Papa Damaso per la Vetus latina , prima ancora che dalla sorgente Gregoriana e che tutt'al più potrebbe richiedere degli aggiornamenti calibrati cum grano salis .

Piuttosto ancora, che fine ha fatto il decreto attuativo del Summorum pontificum , già da tempo pronto sulla scrivania del Papa?

Perché ho parlato di perplessità, pensando all' intervista del Card Cañizares citata da Tornielli :
  1. siamo ancora in attesa delle disposizioni per l'attuazione della Messa Gregoriana, ma il card preannuncia
    « Perciò apriremo una nuova sezione della nostra Congregazione dedicata ad “Arte e musica sacra” al servizio della liturgia. Ciò ci porterà a offrire quanto prima criteri e orientamenti per l’arte, il canto e la musica sacri. Come pure pensiamo di offrire prima possibile criteri e orientamenti per la predicazione ».
    Il dramma degli abusi liturgici sembra non sfiorarlo affatto e il rimedio di cui parla è solo di tipo "burocratico"...

  2. E poi:
    « Non so se si possa, o se convenga, parlare di “riforma the reform. " What I see is absolutely necessary and urgent, according to what they want the Pope, is create a new, clear and vigorous movement throughout the Church liturgical .
    seems to me that this state already "vanished" the reform of the reform "of Benedict XVI. Who has established: again the Curia? And it is wise to speak of a movement that seems to be overshadowed as it is 'from below', for an overall so sacred and serious as the Liturgy?

  3. These are the keywords of the interview with the cardinal who celebrated Neocatechumenals [ see reflections on that rite ] when he mentions the "new liturgical movement "
    " This commitment will be accompanied by the revision and updating of the introductory texts to the various events (prenotanda). We are also aware that give impetus to this movement is not possible without a renewal of the pastoral care of Christian " .
    worth noting that the "ministry of Christian initiation" is neocatecumenale of issue that is already entering the diocese (many already established: Campobasso, for example)

  4. expressed caution about the Cardinal Cañizares:
    " Beauty is important, but it is something quite different from an aesthetic empty and sterile formalism, which however sometimes you fall. There is a risk to believe that the beauty and sacredness of the liturgy or depend on the wealth of ancient vestments. ... "
    may well be the case, but emphasizing that applicants do not remember the slogan of those who prejudicially refers to the VO in these terms?
Hot At my reflection above comes this reply:
Any change, therefore, can not in any case come from the bottom. Okay, but from the bottom, you can prepare the ground, remove the thorns ... Free themselves from the philosophy of suspicion and mistrust to the bitter end. What all hope is a reform, not a revolution, not a bulldozer that tear down everything and start from where we were. Ratzinger said of himself 'I am a reformist, not revolutionary'. Exactly. What about us?
To answer the question, and we ? Here, I wish I could recognize among the "reformers", not necessarily in the gradual reform is urgent and when are those who never lose contact with the "Logos," the real "raison d'être" of all things, and those old ones New: those 'fertilized' and bearers of true life, not those that emerge from nowhere, like poisonous mushrooms ... So do not speak of "philosophy of suspicion or distrust to the bitter end, "but alert awareness.

What is puzzling is that I have read in a speech at the Mass in Latin, by a voice unmistakably modernist :
... who wants to be an actor and star, you have to do later. Post the "three things" to play the rest of the field. Fertilization is the word for those who want to be in the game, those who think "opposition", remains a spectator off the field, to make up the "support" (in one sense or another) "
Here, it remains to understand What is a 'fertilization'. And then, as one might say "who wants to be a leader you face forward "... there are those who are already going to the boarding?

It would be like to say again:" playing field "..." who wants to be in the game? "This is a problem which concerns the whole Church and not the players in contention. The Church is a participatory democracy ( in the Church's participation in government is not , but otherwise ...). Today, for the truth, it is increasingly 'anarchy: the hierarchy, which has never ruled out the communion, deleted with the excuse of "just community", just that we no longer know what to communion, having lost on the road with the WHO, that is the one who creates the Communion ... And then a serious business e sacra come la Liturgia non può essere lasciata in mani profane, ma affidata a mani e cuori veramente 'sapienti'.

Il problema è nello strapotere della 'cultura egemone', che ha generato la crisi in cui siamo ed ora sta continuando a cavalcarla!
Non resta che metter tutto nelle mani del Signore e della Vergine Santa! A noi toccherà il compito di pregare. Il "resto" che rimarrà fedele avrà due colonne. l'Eucaristia e l'Immacolata ( il sogno di don Bosco ).

Qualcuno fa osservare inoltre che
per far rivivere il senso del sacro Ratzinger ha riproposto l’orientamento dell’azione liturgica, the cross in the center of the altar, communion kneeling, Gregorian chant, the space for silence, some care of sacred art. For this reason, comes up with a Motu proprio, an important provision that should be to remedy a gap now become atavistic.
But the knot to untie is true: if instead of fraternal banquet not clearly intends the sacrifice of Christ, which is the heart of our faith and true worship to God to make primary function of the Church from which all the rest flows, changing only ' and form', but will not change the substance

Some people said, quoting words written off written by one of the card. Ratzinger:
Every generation has the task of better and more consistent with the spirit of the liturgy origins.
Apart from the fact that the apoditticità of such a statement may be questionable, even in reference to the context in which it was given (1) should find out what the Latin Rite Gregorian can be made more consistent with the spirit of origins. I really need to chase an elusive, and always emphasized supposed "original spirit" of issue very Protestant, or rather you should not keep what the tradition has given us innovating, if necessary, grain of salt?

While the tradition is alive and enriched nine (not nova), there is no risk of 'liturgical argheologismo insane "mentioned by Pius XII in Mediator Dei ?

What you really need is there bridge the generational gap that has erased the authentic meanings and origins of the true spirit of the Liturgy (not supposed to and emphasized by innovations from those wild and arbitrary) and live more consciously and deeply as we are given, because it is an inexhaustible treasure of grace ...

To return to the news today, it is interesting to take the pulse - and seize the evolution - of the situation, which is a prelude to the official declaration of the Vatican Press, by Andrea Tornielli significant writings on his blog:
13:04 hours : I would ask everyone to be cautious: it will not be as far as I know, a motu proprio dedicated to the correction of liturgical abuses, but rather a technical paper, which in reshaping the powers of the ministry of divine worship should mention that "new liturgical movement" has mentioned several times Cardinal Cañizares .
hours 14:32 : (...) the text of the application of the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum is in the pipeline, to my knowledge. I think that will be published at Easter (Note for the Press: I wrote "I think", and my thought has no value, so I hope that this response - which I express a personal opinion - does not cause a prompt denial) .
14:57 hours: As always, only when you use the word "liturgy" in an article, details of bow with a supersonic speed. In my article I spoke of will not restrictive, but said that the motu proprio may contain a passage in which the Pope entrusted to the Congregation of Divine Worship, the promotion of a new liturgical movement. That this is the will of Benedict XVI did not say that I am nothing, has repeatedly said the Cardinal Prefect of Divine Worship, which has something in liturgical matters. He told the consistory of November, it said in an interview that the readers of this blog know well. Interview long meditated, in which Cañizares explained what was the will of the Pope and described some initiatives of the department . (...)
And here's the press release of Father Lombardi:
"... has long been studying a motu proprio to order the transfer of technical and legal expertise - such as that of dispensation for the marriage 'is ratified and not consummated' - by the Congregation for Divine Worship to the court of the Roman Rota. But there is no basis or reason to see this as an intention to promote the control of type 'restrictive' by the Congregation in the promotion of the liturgical renewal called for by Vatican II "
So says - and I can only share - Francesco Colafemmina [see ]
"As usual, the intent is intimidating: it is in respect of Tornielli than in respect of those who would promote a" reform the reform. "In Tornielli of no one speaks of any "restrictive controls in the promotion of the liturgical renewal." We talk as opposed to "arbitrary changes" of the liturgy and of liturgical abuses. So Father Lombardi, deliberately pro domo plays his (or those who work in the third balcony) and a step part Tornielli of course goes further, allowing a glimpse of the fear of a "Church of punishment" in the liturgy. On the contrary - after 60 years by the liturgical renewal of the Council "(more than Bugnini Lercaro and that the Council!) Father Lombardi has the courage to propose anew the usual menate on" promotion "of this blessed liturgical renewal!

Question: father Lombardi but in the past 60 years where she lived? You have not noticed anything? Do not you think that the Church has too liturgical renewal? It seems that not too many shrines have been destroyed and too many churches defaced in the name of "promotion" of the liturgical renewal of the Council? So much new to be old, outdated, stale, repetitive and frankly intolerable rhetoric? "
remains to ask what will make a department that already does not really count, in which consultants work very progressive and, therefore, with very little convergence toward a worship more "traditional", especially if it is misused, as can be seen dall'involversi regressive situation and certain paean di vittoria lanciati da un movimento in particolare, molto sponsorizzato dagli ambiti più potenti della Curia.

Dove sta andando la nostra Chiesa? Da un lato aumenta la consapevolezza ma, sul piano 'pastorale', i segnali sono sempre più scoraggianti.
...................................................
(1) Card. Ratzinger, 28 dicembre del 2001 sul quotidiano francese La Croix: “Alcuni addetti ai lavori vorrebbero far credere che tutte le idee non perfettamente conformi ai loro schemi sono un ritorno nostalgico al passato. Lo dicono solo per partito preso. Bisogna riflettere seriamente sulle cose e non accusare gli altri di essere partigiani di St. Pius V. Every generation has the task of better and more consistent with the spirit of the origins of the liturgy. And I think actually now no reason to work hard in this sense, reform the reform. Without a revolution (I am a reformist, not revolutionary), but there must be a change. A priori impossible to declare any improvement seems to me absurd dogmatism. "

Butterfly Prom Dresses

reconcile. The methodological problem of the approach.

A conference Milan (April 2010) for the presentation of the book by John W. O'Malley Jesuit professor at Georgetown University in Washington: What happened at Vatican II , published by Life and Thought, allowed to declare:
"Paradoxically, the forces that seem to question the sense of 'event in the life of the Church can reconcile are perhaps revealing all the fertility. Whoever touches the council has the effect to strengthen and highlight its roots in the consciousness of the Church. "
We see therefore that the discussions strictly parallel likely to continue indefinitely and without sense. L 'axis around which revolve all the main threads and hermeneutics. Many faithful interpreters of the "spirit of the Council" insist on the impossibility to dissociate and thus oppose the letter and spirit of the council itself because, they argue, this is consistent with the fundamental option that has characterized its form of expression "epideictic "ie" its pastoral character, "which involved the use of a language instead of dialogue and urges" apodictic, ie demonstration. He preferred the 'description' putting together a series of elements whose cohesion in the end proves apodictically artificial being sidelined la 'dimostrazione' e quindi la 'prescrizione'. Il risultato, paradossale, è che ora ci si trova di fronte ad un insieme che ha fatto della sua disinvolta 'descrittività' con intenti pastorali qualcosa di intoccabile e rigidamente prescrittivo. Un ingranaggio, che non esiterei a definire perverso e difficilmente smontabile finché ci saranno molti improvvidi custodi ad ungerne le ruote.

Fermarsi ad una visione del genere porterebbe all'impossibilità di far chiarezza nella confusione, che ormai regna sovrana, anche perché chi ci è dentro mani e piedi neppure se ne accorge, anzi ci si avviluppa sempre di più.

Il Convegno di Roma dello scorso dicembre ha dimostrato, invece, la possibilità -anzi la necessità- di non doversi prendere il concilio come "un blocco unico" né come "evento mitizzato ed intoccabile", e quindi non tutto infallibile ...

In definitiva, ci si chiede se la ragione principale per la quale la questione dell'interpretazione sfocia su una querelle senza fine non risieda specificamente nella natura stessa di ciò che è interpretato, cioè nell'insieme dei testi e dell'avvenimento del Vaticano II in ciò che essi hanno di confuso e di atipico; ma è una domanda che esige una risposta, implicita nel fatto che ciò che è confuso e atipico can not and must not take place in the Church Mater et Magistra . We rescued the statement of Fr Lanzetta that in hermeneutic difficulty lies the lack of metaphysics that is the problem of form and substance: the modernity is losing clarity, accusing the legal dogmatism, but set aside the metaphysical significance is the faith that is put aside in a corner .

It 'important to take into consideration the fact, duly registered by Fides Catholica, that the first critical responses that have come to the conference, show, however, a problem of methodology, not only to the most recent authoritative texts ( is that of Professor De Mattei than that of Bishop Gherardini ) because, more generally, the question "Vatican Council II."

For this reason I post, among the documents made available to enhance the consultation in the left column at the top of the blog, a text of Professor John Turkish: Vatican Council II: the problem methodological approach, because an important central problem of hermeneutics, and relied so felt by all, but the approach is strongly linked to the texts of the Council and their wealth and / or roughness determined by mindset interpreter. Fides Catholica, from which I took writing, so effectively summarizes: "... The author of the study, researchers at the University of Udine, leads to three possible approaches models:
  1. that of practice;
  2. the phenomenal-sociological;
  3. or ontological truth. Only the latter, he explains, is able to establish dialogue with these two books. "
Advance here the final piece:
[...] "If the faith (Christian) is rationabile obsequium and is a fides quaerens intellectum , it demands to be thought of in theoretical terms (ie in terms of the essential truth). The prassismo or phenomenon (even with the best intentions, which, moreover, are not relevant in terms of value judgments) not allow - precisely because these - to think in terms of truth .

On the other hand, if some documents and records pose problems, because there would be obliged to ignore them? Noted significant problems encountered questions that demand answers. Every opportunity to put in issue the facts and issues that can not be regarded as auspicious for the need to understand - and then to penetrate intellectually - by going beyond questionable. Seek answers in terms di verità – con sagacia ed con accuratezza, con generosità e con coraggio – costituisce, a ben vedere, l’unica strada autentica, ovvero razionale e teologale, per soddisfare l’ esigenza di capire e quindi anche quella di rendere ragione (sotto il profilo storico, filosofico e teologico) ."
Buona lettura. E speriamo vengano fuori spunti per alimentare ulteriormente il dibattito.

Introduction Letter About Our Dental Practice

written notations on a Father Cavalcoli: Vatican II and the Society of Saint Pius X

Ho preso visione della Lettera aperta [ consultabile dal link ] di p. Giovanni Cavalcoli, mossa dalla relazione di Don Florian Kolfhaus al recente convegno di Roma sul Concilio. Nell'esprimere una certa sopresa - tenendo conto the role of institutional official of the Secretary of State Don Kolfhaus - the fact that he has been called into question publicly, I would like to make some comments, that focus on certain points relating to the SSPX, starting from the following premise.

says PM Cavalcoli:
"At the same time the Holy Spirit, that" all things new, "the leading [the Church] to the" fullness of truth ", not the way to teach new truths - non nova sed nine - but in sense of learning more about these same truths, the same word that does not pass and that the bridegroom gave the bride. "
I believe that if we were so confident that this, which is the prerogative of the tradition that we love, is what really happened in the council and as a result of the council, there would be no reason for all these fans and well-argued debates ...

Adds p. Cavalcoli:
"For this reason, together with you, I reject the interpretation both of which lefevriani rahneriani, who see in the new doctrines of the Council with the Magisterium, which breaks the previous dogma as if it were not immutable, but subject to development or change to a modern, indignant at the lefevriani this supposed to break, instead rahneriani to rejoice. "
The junction of the Society of St. Pius X and Rahner in fact exist: the 'break'. But do not forget that Rahner, who along with others has been the soul of the council, is the author, while the fraternity is one of those-we-along with the note, without absolutizing entire council, which is demonstrated they can not take it as "a single unit" or as "mythical event and untouchable," and therefore not all infallible ...

register these statements of p. Cavalcoli in to review the two positions, the modernist and the SSPX:
«Il Concilio è considerato un “superdogma” dai modernisti, i quali peraltro, spregiatori come sono del vero dogma, si riservano di prendere dal Concilio solo quel che pare a loro o di falsificarne il vero significato, infischiandosi dell’interpretazione del Magistero, esattamente come fanno i protestanti.
I lefevriani, dal canto loro, si sono irrigiditi ad uno stadio della Tradizione superato (anche se sempre valido), precedente a quello del Vaticano II (al 1962, come ha detto scherzosamente, ma non troppo, il Papa), senza rendersi conto che proprio il Vaticano II è testimone infallibile dello stadio più avanzato della Tradizione.»
Mi trovo perfettamente d'accordo con l'affermazione riguardante i modernisti, mentre penso alla percentuale di Chiesa visibile che ricade in questa definizione, perché si tratta esattamente della crisi nella Chiesa non della Chiesa del nostro tempo e del grande disorientamento e oscuramento delle verità di Fede che molti fedeli, che ancora si identificano come cattolici, vivono e soffrono quotidianamente.
Piccola chiosa : il termine 'cattolico' è sempre più desueto nel lessico ecclesiale. Insieme a molti altri (es. Redenzione, Espiazione, Sacrificio, Penitenza e Riconciliazione, Grazia Santificante, Chiesa come Corpo Mistico di Cristo); mentre altre espressioni ormai signoreggiano con sempre maggior forza (es. enfasi sulla "mensa della Parola", equiparazione della Presenza nella Parola a quella nelle Sacre Specie)...

Mi sembra invece riduttivo presentare i "Lefebvriani" come congelati al pre-concilio. Riduttivo, in ragione della loro realtà così inserita nel vivo del tessuto sociale, in altri Paesi piuttosto che in Italia, non solo con la pastorale e la fedeltà al Rito Gregoriano -peraltro prerogativa di molti cattolici che non aderiscono alla Fraternità- ma anche nel campo dell'Educazione. Personalmente, nelle occasioni che ho avuto di confrontarmi con molti di loro, ho trovato persone e sacerdoti aperti e ben consapevoli delle sfide del nostro tempo. Poi, come in ogni realtà ecclesiale, fringes may be more 'extremist', but in such a delicate moment I would not be to focus attention on those.

Cavalcoli Father puts it this way again calling into question the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X:
'... the Holy Father, with a view and hope to welcome into full communion with the Church Society of St. Pius X (the so-called "lefevriani"), put them as a condition of acceptance of the "doctrines" of the Council, and evidently the doctrines new, because lefevriani have no difficulty to accept the truths of faith that are already defined can be found in the teachings of the Council. "
so hasty Refer to the "so-called" lefevriani '"(sic) [Lefebvrians], is already to position itself in antithetical terms in respect of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, not so much Lefebvrian, just as Catholic . It can not be identified tout court as a follower of Bishop Lefebre, who is the founder, but by the attitude that there is no figure of the cult of personality found in other contexts. Furthermore, there is 'doctrine ' of Lefebvre: the council expressed reservations about the fraternities are in the name of the Catholic Tradition . And then they put it on equal footing modernists, which is more than obvious the gap all'alveo respect of tradition, I think frankly inappropriate and inaccurate, since the 'newness' of the council objected to it coincide with the 'nodes' that any true Catholic can be found , especially in their applications 'pastoral' made by innovators who have marked in fact the existence of two different 'souls' in the Church as a result of two different ecclesiology. This is the heart of the problem.

While the Fraternity, its fidelity to tradition, challenges the 'innovations' introduced by some teachings of the Council, it does not seem true that the Holy Father makes the fullness of ecclesial communion to a slavish acceptance. He has, indeed, accepted and ordered the holding of talks at the Doctrine of the Faith: which goes to show that something to be discussed there and, above all, it is appropriate to discuss . The awareness of this now I think it is now established. I think I can pick up a contrast between the attitude to dialogue with Benedict XVI and hardness of expression of this page Cavalcoli.

Another consideration is imposed: it is true that the fraternity accepts the doctrine of pre-conciliar - which incidentally belongs to every Catholic in the twenty-first of the council while con i suoi 'distinguo' - ma è altrettanto vero che i modernisti la negano , ed è qui la vera 'rottura'.

Afferma inoltre p. Cavalcoli:
«E del resto i Papi del postconcilio hanno più volte detto che il Concilio non è stato solo pastorale ma anche dottrinale»
Ormai le cosiddette "dottrine nuove", sono sufficientemente smascherate e non vengono più passate sotto silenzio per essere forzosamente ricomprese in una fantasmatica "ermeneutica della continuità", proclamata, ma di fatto non ancora dimostrata nei termini in cui abbiamo constatato essa dovrebbe dispiegarsi. Questa è la nostra attuale consapevolezza, that makes us hope with Bishop Schneider: "So there is really need a Syllabus reconcile with doctrinal value and there is also the need of increasing the number of holy pastors, courageous and deeply rooted in the tradition of the Church, without any kind of attitude strength is in matters of doctrine, both in liturgical . "

Cardinal Ratzinger himself in 1988 before the bishops of Chile stated: the Second Vatican Council" devised to remain in a low level, as a simple pastoral council "that is oriented to the needs of his time, pointing to the order of practice and quindi «il Concilio stesso non ha definito alcun dogma e volle coscientemente esprimersi a un livello inferiore, come concilio puramente pastorale». Tuttavia, proprio questo "concilio pastorale" – proseguiva il cardinal Ratzinger – viene interpretato «come se fosse quasi un superdogma, che priva di significato tutti gli altri concili». Del resto, per dirla con Don Kolfhaus, è ormai chiaro che " molti difendono il carattere vincolante e il significato del Vaticano II - che non mancano -, ma solo pochi ricordano i venti concili dogmatici precedenti . È per questo che si registra una sorta di timore di un arretramento rispetto al Concilio e di una sua arbitraria svalutazione. Il nostro contesto e le nostre reflections do not want to get to this, but only to shed light on the events, their scope and meaning of where we are bringing "add-of course-with the aim of finding the bed of Tradition, without which there ' is the Church, but something 'other' and 'beyond' ... The same can be said of the position of Lefebvrians who, despite all the distinctions of order placement and experiential canonical determined by the complex and painful historical events from which gave rise, not facing different objectives.

Finally Cavalcoli p. says:
