The Western submission to Islam, usually ideologically concealed as "tolerance" and "integration," has infiltrated the Church, also hiding behind theologically distorted euphemisms like "ecumenism." While the unwavering masses of asylum seekers are coming in unprecedented numbers and pose a serious reason for alarm, the slow and anonymous occupation of quarters in small communities and the barely perceptible changes in everyday life are indicators of a profound and irreversible transformation in Europe.
Last week vaticanista Marco Tosatti commented on his blog on the initiative promoted by the chaplain in charge of the chapel inside Malpensa Airport, in Milan. Monsignor Ruggero Camagni, priest in the Milanese airport, made news in 2016 for his notable generosity towards foreigners in difficulty, but also for providing a space for Muslim prayer inside chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Loreto.
As Catholic blog Anticattocomunismo points out, the cult of Loreto, according to tradition, was born in 1291, "when the Crusaders were thrown into the sea and the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem was conquered by Muslim slave soldiers, and the house of the Holy Family of Nazareth was taken by angels to the Italian city of Loreto."
Seven centuries later, a Catholic chapel consecrated to Our Lord in one of the country's primary entrance points in one of its busiest thoroughfares now welcomes prayers offered by a religion that rejects the divinity of Jesus Christ — standing as a symbol of Church leaders' excessive insistence on "dialogue," resulting in the near-total loss of Catholic identity.
A piece of paper written "East" is attached to the wall, and not very far from the altar are two Muslim prayer mats. "We are brothers, all brothers, and it's beautiful to pray together," exclaimed Fr. Camagni, who apparently hasn't read the 2002 document "Peace in the World: Dialogue Among Christians and With Other Religions" (written by Cdl. Walter Kasper, not exactly known for his orthodoxy), from the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, which states: "Christians and the followers of other religions can pray, but cannot pray together. Every form of syncretism is to be excluded"
The chaplain explained his decision. "They asked for my help, they had no place of worship inside Malpensa," he said. "Christians should be inclined to share: If I have three rooms, I'll give one to someone who has no place to sleep, and it's the same thing for a place to pray."
Tosatti argues that the gesture, even if well-intended, must be avoided. "The place where a Muslim community prays becomes Dar al-Islam, a safe place for Muslims and eternal property of those who follow the Prophet. Unlike the rest of the world, the Western world in particular, that is Dar al-harb, the house of war, land to conquer."
The vaticanista also quotes a pastoral document from the Italian Episcopal Conference on the rapport with Islam: "Christian communities, to avoid worthless misunderstandings and dangerous confusions, shouldn't make churches, chapels and other places reserved to Catholic worship, available for meetings of other faiths."
Father Camagni exposes the heart of the matter when he comments, "They pray more than us. Muslims spend more time than Christians at the chapel, even if they do it individually, at their own time."
And last Christmas (by now a Christian celebration always accompanied by controversy), a parish in the city of Potenza, south Italy, was the object of local indignation for its alternative Nativity Scene. Father Franco Corbo placed a Mary — with face covered — in the manger. The figure was coined by the faithful as "Mary with the burqa." Saint Joseph was in "Arabic garments." The Nativity Scene also included the phrase "Let's build bridges, not walls," written in rainbow colors.
After backlash, Corbo replaced it with a traditional Nativity scene given to him by displeased parishioners. Corbo dismissed the dispute as a controversy that "only arose because of an interpretation made by ignorants." The priest also claimed that "the Holy Family in Arabic dress is supposed to be an invitation to a mental and cultural opening, a message of peace for all people and all cultures."
When confronted with the fact that Islam hasn't exactly provided examples of tolerance, the priest shot back, "Islam, like all other religions, is synonymous with peace and fraternity." He also declared that his gesture was in no way sacrilegious, but "a way to promote dialogue with all the faiths and ethnicities crushed or reduced to misery by Western society's selfishness."
And to close the year of yielding obedience to the "peaceful" globalist agenda, the archdiocese of Ravenna had to release a note to clarify claims made by various reports in the press stating that the archdiocese's traditional Te Deum Mass had been cancelled and replaced by a parade in celebration of the World Day of Peace (January 1). The note stated that the Mass had never been cancelled, but it hadn't been inserted in the program of the parade because it was a separate event. For the first time, the parade for the World Day of Peace in Ravenna began at the city's mosque "as a significant symbol that collaboration between people of different religions is possible, and here in Ravenna this is a reality." Ravenna's mosque is the second largest in Italy and has been the scene of recruitment of 10 percent of Muslim foreign fighters.
It is not just politicians, some religious have also bought into “it’s a peaceful religion”.
That priest is a glittering jewel of colossal ignorance.
Won’t be long before the Muslims take it over completely. They don’t go along to get along. They infiltrate and conquer.
After the fake Pope makes all Catholics submit to his new version of Catholicism, he’ll get the to submit to Islam, this is just a warm-up.
Disgusting.
Fr. Camagni needs to be defrocked.
I remember after 9/11 bush was bamboozled into the Islam was a religion of peace mantra!! More than ever I believe the Lord is ready to remove his people from this earth and let Armageddon come to full-term! And those left behind will be beheaded by this peaceful religion because of their stupidity and ignorance!!!
The priests final thoughts while he clutches the knife in his heart staring in disbelief as his life force drips into an ever expanding puddle on the ground will be....
Nothing to do with islam
Nothing to do with islam
Nothing to do with islam
Catholic ping!
All this talk from Church Militant about the evils of “ecumenism” and “dialogue” and not one mention from where this all comes from: Vatican II.
Unwise.
“... a profound and irreversible transformation in Europe.”
It IS reversible, but it will be a bloodbath!
The problem is that most self-identified Catholics don’t follow true Catholicism. They follow the Vatican II religion. Francis is just pushing the non-Catholic envelope further.
And here I read that Italians were fed-up with these muslim ass hats. Must have been fake news.
