Aldo Maria Valli has another series of vignettes this time making fun of recent developments in the church of Bergoglio…in which whatever
seems to be wacky is indeed wacky and frighteningly so.


It seems that…
Translated from

It seems that the Vatican Post Office has a problem. Dysfunctions have arisen after the Vatican’s philatelic office issued a stamp showing Luther and his main theologian Melancthon at the foot of the Cross with the city of Wittemberg as the background. As the presentation for the stamp reads, Luther holds a Bible, 'source and goal of his doctrine', while Melancthon, one of the major protagonists of the ‘Reformation’, “holds the Confessio Augustana, the first official exposition of the principles of Protestantism compiled by him”.

Quickly an object for stamp collectors, the stamp however appears not to be holding up to its function – it will not stick on to envelops. After some inquiries, it was found that the envelops at the Vatican Post Office, incurably Catholic, refuse to accommodate the Luther stamps, because ‘Con noi, non si attacca’ – No one attaches anything to us [a reference to Luther nailing his schismatic theses on the door of the Wittemberg cathedral].

It seems that a hitherto unknown tribe has been discovered in the Amazonia. Curiously, the discovery was made the day after the pope announced a special synodal assembly for the pan-Amazon region to take place in 2019. As you know, the assembly will also discuss the priest shortage afflicting that vast region, and therefore, the possibility to ordain married men as priests.

An eventuality that some sectors in the Church immediately greeted with approval, especially by someone like Mons. Erwin Krautler, German-born bishop of the territorial prelature of Xingu in the Amazon, who favors immediate ordination of married men, proceeding next to the ordination of female deacons.

And what are the characteristics of the newly-discovered tribe? It would seem that they are all celibate priests who chose to isolate themselves from the world. Who, upon learning of the synodal assembly for the Amazon and the possibility of ordaining married priests, quickly fled into the depths of the jungle without leaving a trace.

It seems that Fr. Thomas Weinandy, Fr. Samir Khalil Samir and Prof. Josef Seifert are planning to write a book together. As we know, all three recently underwent analogous experiences: Fr. Weinandy, theologian, was dismissed by the USCCB as a theological consultant; Fr. Samir, Islamologist, was dismissed from his teaching post at the Pontifical Oriental Institute in Rome and has retired to Cairo; and Prof. Seifert, philosopher, was fired from his professorial chair in the Spanish affiliate of the International Philosophical Academy he had founded.

The reason? All three, in different ways, had publicly expressed questions and criticisms of some aspects of the current papal magisterium. The title of the book? The working hypothesis is “Toccati dalla misericordia" (Touched by mercy).

It seems that the European Parliament wishes to grant the Sakharov Prize for freedom of thought to the Bishop of Modena, who as we know, wrote in his diocesan weekly calling on all his parish priests not to invite or host some categories of individuals to any meetings or conferences. Those to be excluded being “visionaries and charismatics”, but also “journalists and intellectuals who manifest subtle or open dissent with the official Church and above all, with Pope Francis”.

The citation for the prelate apparently says, among other things: “For his tireless action in defense of human rights, first of all freedom of word and thought, in line with the social doctrine of the Church, and for his willingness to engage in an open and sincere confrontation, exempt from any form of prevention or prejudice.”

It seems that a rapid training course in discernment has been organized on the international level.

Among the first to be called to take the course are some Belgian young people who, while Cardinal De Kesel was celebrating the fifth centenary of Luther’s schism with the protestants, decided to recite the Rosary in the Cathedral of Brussels. As will the hundreds of thousands of Poles who recited the Rosary along their country’s borders with seven nations on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary in repentance and reparation for sins as Our Lady of Fatima enjoined us 100 years ago. The discernment course is entitled “Towards the path to liberation: No to walls, yes to bridges” and will be held in former Communist re-education camps .

It seems that the Pontifical Academy for Social Sciences will stop holding conferences on climate change at the Vatican. And also that said academy will no longer invite leading exponents of the abortionist culture and diehard neo-Malthusians to their conferences….

But wait, it seems that the above has been promptly denied by the Vatican.
***
It seems that the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, after having banned from its Facebook page all ‘friends’ who were sending messages to protest the dismissal of Fr. Weinandy, have decided to publish a document entitled “How to dialog in the Church: The importance of listening”.

It seems that the reasons given by the Italian police for justifying their two-hour blockage last Sunday of a publicity van commemorating the death of Cardinal Caffarra two months ago and reminding onlookers of John Paul II’s words on the indissolubility of marriage, were not as earlier reported. The policemen actually said, “Cardinal Caffarra was not in line with Pope Francis”. [Marco Tosatti actually had an intermediate report in which Toni Brandi, the organizer questioned by the police, said that when first asked on the phone by the police what was the reason for the publicity run, he was told precisely that: “What is all this about, considering that Cardinal Caffarra was not in line with Pope Francis” – as if Caffarra’s dissent from the pope justified any police action at all!But Valli puts a good spin to it:] It seems that as to their own motives, the policemen chose to give precedence to the truth.
