– I would say that of the interview with the cardinal Walter Kasparprogressive close Francis and unpopular with Ratzinger’s line, one line in particular deserves mention. This: father george goose wine? “It would have been better to remain silent, now is not the time for such things.” Vatican On the contrary: a threatening storm is blowing over Francis
– It must also be said that Monsignor Gänswein shakes the sacred institution with all his revelations. First, the accusation against Francis of having “broken Ratzinger’s heart” by banning the Latin mass. Then the shock of his expulsion as prefect of the Papal Household gender sent by Benedetto and allegedly ignored by Bergoglio. Finally, after admitting that the Church “ran into a brick wall” from Francis. Well, maybe he’s right, but all things considered, a few days before the funeral, it smells very much like an assault on the incumbent pope.
– That the work of attrition in the conservative wing has begun Francis now everything’s clear. Also of note is Timothy Broglio, the head of the Church in North America, where apparently 90% of bishops disapprove of the Pope’s work. Broglio sees Francis in physical “trouble” and is convinced he could go: “Not celebrating: these are all elements of normal pastoral care that are missing.” As to say: why don’t you go? From here, as you will see, the Conservatives will continue to put more and more pressure on the Vatican, hoping to get another resignation. This time read with a Spanish accent…
– The government reports non-governmental organization Ports further away than usual. Not Sicily, but Ravenna and Ancona. So good. After all, it is not clear why ships – if they are safe – cannot sail with people on board. If they’re conducting rescues and are prepared for rescues, what problems should they face?
– In France, a feminist association has filed a lawsuit Miss France because it would discriminate against women by only accepting young ladies who are 1.70 meters tall. Ideological and pointless struggle. First, the aspiring misses are becoming models, and to wear designer clothes you have to be tall, otherwise nobody will get you. Second, just do a brief overview of the world universe to understand that “height is half the beauty”. You could also accept the lower ones, but there is no escape: you would still lose. That’s called logic, not discrimination.
– The Brazil it’s in chaos. Bolsonaro supporters storm parliament, a bit like Trump’s. To be honest, I’m not surprised: perhaps it was us Westerners who paid little attention to the tensions that have been raging in and around São Paulo for weeks. Whether they are right or wrong, however, the attack remains inadmissible: protest is fine until it becomes rebellion. Then there are no more excuses.
– Soft day, short column. Until tomorrow
