The political-spiritual turning point of Beppe Grillo experiences a new shock: after the birth of the “Church of Elsewhere” comes the attack Pope Franciswho will be a guest on Sunday, January 14th Fabio Fazio to What is the weather on November? L'Elevato, as his mystical alter ego calls himself, takes aim at Jorge Mario Bergoglio in a video posted on his blog: “The Pope is closing.” TV. And also this choice of means of communication, where I think the Church is in crisis. There Church She has become truly middle-class and, like the middle class, is suffering from the lack of contact. We know that Catholicism in Europe is 22 to 23 percent, while in South America it is 65 to 70 percent.

In short, shows like Fazio's are “miserable.” Strange that you think so, considering that the show went from Rai to Nove was chosen by Grillo precisely because of his return to television after years of silence a month ago, when he went so far as to use the “wretched media”. to talk about that too Trial against his son Ciro Grillo.
The Pope appears on television tonight. The choice of these means of communication makes me think that the Church is in crisis. The church has become middle class and suffers like the middle class. https://t.co/CYuvrGrZgY

We have to check them a little, otherwise we are always living on old ideas, we are always trying to fit into old ideas and modify them, we have to move forward. The church essentially takes in 4 billion euros a year from the Italian state. The Vatican itself, because it also has 2.5 million employees to maintain, it has a CEO, it has a structure, tens of thousands of properties. And he also takes a billion and a hundred 8×1000 without the Italians knowing. So a little change…,” preaches the founder of the “Church of Elsewhere” in his sermon.
