Who is Who is Father Luigi Villa?Father Luigi Villa?

by Dr. Franco Adessa

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the request of many people from Italy and abroad, and after more than twenty years of

collaboration with this courageous Priest, I decided to write this

short biography of Father Luigi Villa, because I can no longer be silent about the

indescribable and unending persecution suffered by this old, faithful and incorruptible Minister of God!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

L uigi Villa was born in Lecco,Italy, on February 3, 1918.Having completed his sec-

ondary school, high school and theol-ogy, he was ordained priest, on June28, 1942. He said his first Mass at the Cathedralof Lecco. He exercised his priestlyministry in his country of origin with-in the Comboni Institute for aboutten years. Father Villa was a real pursuer of vo-cations and a respected preacher andlecturer. His presence (work) was ap-preciated and requested in many citiesand places of Italy. In addition, he de-voted himself particularly to the train-ing of young people.

It was exactly for this work, that is,his relationship with the youth and theinfluence he had on them, that pro-cured a death sentence for him. In fact, the Fascist party leader, Jus-tice Minister, Roberto Farinacci, is-sued a death sentence against him.The reasoning was: «We do notknow who Father Luigi Villa is. Heapparently has been sent out to stirup the youth of the Republic.» En-forcement of the execution did nottake place thanks to a “tip-off” madeby an official of the Ministry of Jus-tice, who, secretly and hastily, warneda confrere (or colleague) of FatherVilla, Father Ceccarini - who lived atthe Institute of the Comboni in Crema

(a little town close to Brescia) withFather Luigi - in order to escape. So,Father Villa climbed out of a windowand fled, exactly at the moment whena jeep arrived with six heavily armedsoldiers of the firing squad. This condemnation weighed on Fa-ther Villa for the duration of the Re-public of Salò (the Republic createdby Mussolini at the end of World War

II). There was always a provisional at-mosphere and a continuous threat sur-rounding Father Villa. Only at the endof the war, on July 25, 1945, was heliberated from this nightmare! During the war, Father Villa was con-sumed with the desire to save entirefamilies of Jews. In fact, in obedienceto the edicts of Pius XII, Father Luigirescued 57 Jews. In three trips, on themountains bordering Italy and Switzer-land, he risked his life for them.

In early 1953, due to family problems,he left the Comboni Institute. At theinvitation of the Archbishop of Fer-rara, Msgr. Ruggero Bovelli, he wasincardinated into this diocese, to es-tablish an International MissionaryMovement.

Meetings with Padre Pio

In those years, Father Villa continuedhis activities as a preacher and lecturer.In 1956, he held a series of lectures forthe graduates of Bari. It is there, aftera lunch of fish, that he was poisoneddue to the clams in the spaghetti.

Informing his friend, Father Berni,who was chaplain at the airport ofBari, Father Villa was taken by somepilots to the nursing department of theairport. There, he was treated by amedical colonel. He remained thereuntil he was well.

Before leaving Bari, Fr. Berni wantedFather Luigi to go with him to SanGiovanni Rotondo. Arriving there, Fr.Berni asked him to wait while hewent to the hotel “Santa Maria” andmake reservations for lunch. Fr. Villa, then went to pray in thechapel of the Convent of Padre Pio.The church was empty as he knelt inone of the pews. Suddenly, he senseda presence and turned to see if some-one was there: There was a youngman, exceedingly beautiful, whoasked him: «Do you want to meetPadre Pio?»«No», said Father Villa, but the youngman insisted: «Go, go on now, PadrePio is waiting for you.»Father Villa turned toward the personwho had just spoken, but, there wasno one any longer at his side. The per-son who had uttered those words haddisappeared!Then, he entered the Convent andwent to the area of Padre Pio’s room.He noticed a strong fragrance of flow-ers and communicated it to a friar,

who was passing, who said: «Goodsign, good sign!» adding that PadrePio would soon return to his cell. During the wait, Father Villa wrote alist of 12 questions in his notebookthat he intended to ask the friar. Afterawhile, he saw the door open, whichwas at the bottom of the stairs of thesacristy. As soon as Padre Pio entered,he looked at him (he was at the bot-tom of this narrow staircase, abouttwenty meters away) and said: «Whatis Father Villa doing here?» Then,he walked up to his room, No. 5,which he entered, followed by twodoctors. After a few minutes, the doc-tors left and Padre Pio called Fr. Lui-gi and had him enter his room. Here,he answered his 12 questions andspoke for over half an hour, givinghim an assignment: you must dedi-cate your entire life to defend theChurch of Christ from the work ofFreemasonry, especially the ecclesi-astical [Freemasonry].Father Villa, puzzled, said: «But I’mnot prepared for such a commitment, I

should also be protected by a Bish-op.» Padre Pio interrupted him andsaid: «Go to the Bishop of Chieti,and he will tell you what to do.»Two days later, Father Villa departedfrom Bari and went to the Bishop ofChieti, Msgr. Giambattista Bosio.

The Bishop asked: «Why are youhere?» Father Luigi said: «BecausePadre Pio told me to come to you.»And then explained the reasons.But Msgr. Bosio said: «This is impos-sible! A bishop has only authority inhis diocese, and your agenda is muchbroader! However, since you weretold by Padre Pio whom I have neverseen or known, I will go to Rome fora clarification.»In fact, Bishop Bosio went to the Sec-retary of State, Cardinal DomenicoTardini, to speak of the commitmentFather Villa received from Padre Pio.

The Cardinal was immediately op-posed to it, stating that such a taskwas reserved for only the top leader-ship of the Church, and not a simplepriest. However, having heard thatthis project was initiated by PadrePio, he said he would talk to the HolyFather. And he did.When Msgr. Bosio came back toCardinal Tardini, the Cardinal toldhim that Pius XII had approved themandate given by Padre Pio to Fr. Vil-la, but with two conditions: FatherLuigi had to have a degree in dogmat-ic theology, and that he had to beplaced under the direction of Card.Alfredo Ottaviani, Prefect of theHoly Office, Card. Pietro Parente,and Card. Pietro Palazzini.

These cardinals had to guide him andeducate him on all the secrets of theChurch relevant to his papal mandate.Msgr. Bosio transmitted to Father Vil-la the “conditions” of Pius XII, but,on his own, he added another one: «Iaccept the responsibility to be yourBishop, but I tell you: Never haveanything to do with Montini!»Struck by the harshness of thesewords, Father Villa asked: «Who isMontini?»Msgr. Bosio said: «I give you an ex-ample: I’m on this side of the tableand you on the other side. On thisside, there is Msgr. GiambattistaMontini, on the other side, the restof humanity.»It should be noted that the Montiniand Bosio families were both resi-dents in Concesio (a town near Bres-cia). So, the Bosio family was wellacquainted with Montini!

After this, Msgr. Bosio, by decree ofMay 6, 1957, secretly incardinatedFather Villa, in his diocese of Chi-eti-Vasto.

Father Luigi, then enrolled at the Uni-versity of Fribourg (CH) where he“received a diploma” in Sacred Theol-ogy in July of 1963. He graduated,then, at the Lateran University inRome, on April 28, 1971.

In the second half of 1963, Father Vil-la had his second meeting with PadrePio.As soon as he saw him, Padre Piosaid: «I have been waiting for youfor a long time!» Padre Pio com-plained about the slowness with whichFather Luigi had been proceeding withhis assignment.At the end of the encounter, Padre Pioembraced Father Villa and said:«Courage, courage, courage! forthe Church is already invaded byFreemasonry,» adding: «Freemason-ry has already reached the Pope’sslippers.» (Paul VI!)

Secret Agent

In all those years, Father Villa workedas a secret agent of Card. Ottaviani,with the specialty of documenting themembership of senior officials of theCatholic Church into Freemasonryand to deal with some delicate ques-tions of the Church.This role made Fr. Villa at home anda person well known in Police Of-fices, Police Headquarters and otherAgencies of General Investigationsand Special Operations.

In September, 1978, during the briefpontificate of Pope Luciani, the “List

of Pecorelli” appeared on “OP” (Po-litical Observer), the magazine ofLawyer Mino Pecorelli. It was not agreat surprise for Father Villa to readmany names of senior officials as theyhad already been removed from theirpositions, some time before, since hehad provided the documents to the

Holy Office of their membership inFreemasonry.

One of the most famous cases wasthat one of Card. Joseph Suenens,driven from his headquarters in Brus-sels because he was found to be a Ma-son. He was also married and livingwith a son named Paul!Another “painful” case was that oneof Card. Achille Lienart. In Paris,while waiting, near a Masonic Lodge,for the man who was to confirm theexistence of documents attesting tothe Masonic membership of Card.Lienart, Father Villa, suddenly, saw ayoung man running toward him. Heassaulted Fr. Villa punching him withan “iron fist” in his face, shouting:«There is a devil on this earth!»Father Villa regained consciousness ina pharmacy, with his mouth full ofblood, a broken jaw, and not one toothleft in his mouth.

Then one day in Haiti, he risked hislife. He went to that country for a mis-sion, but was seized by the militaryand was taken to a place, to be execut-ed by shooting. But Father Villa hadan inspiration: he asked the officerwho guarded him, if he could speakwith one of his dearest friends, the Su-perior of the local seminary. The offi-cer, troubled by the request, went tohis superiors and came back immedi-ately, saying: «We made a mistake.»Father Villa was released at once.

Among the sensitive issues assignedto him by Card. Ottaviani, was ameeting with Lucia of Fatima. Oneday Cardinal Ottaviani told Fr. Vil-la: «I think I will send you to Fati-ma to speak directly with Sister Lu-cia.»He accepted with joy. A business man

from Padua joined him, Mr. Pag-nossin, a convert of Padre Pio, whooffered to pay for the trip and the stayin Portugal. Cardinal Ottaviani hadprovided him with a personal letter,signed by him, as Prefect of the HolyOffice. This was to be delivered to theBishop of Coimbra, to allow him toarrange a meeting with Sister Lucia.But the Bishop of Coimbra, beforegranting the meeting with the Seer,picked up the phone and called theVatican. Msgr. Giovanni Benelli an-

swered but, before giving the permis-sion, he told him that he wanted totalk to Paul VI, because Rome hadgiven strict orders: “an interview”with Lucy was allowed only to Roy-alty and to Cardinals.

Msgr. Benelli, Pro-secretary ofState, transmitted to the Bishop ofCoimbra the prohibition of Paul VIfor the request of an interview withSister Lucia. Useless, then, was theinsistence of Father Villa, in high-lighting his role as the envoy of thePrefect of the Holy Office. However,he remained in Portugal, trying toovercome the resistance of the Bish-op. After ten days, however, he had toresign himself to defeat. He only ob-tained permission from the Bishop tocelebrate a Mass in the Chapel of theConvent. When back in Italy, Father Luigi wentimmediately to report the incident toCard. Ottaviani. The Cardinal feltoffended by the conduct of Paul VI,and immediately wrote a letter ofprotest. After returning later, in Rome,Cardinal Ottaviani told Father Villa

that Paul VI had made an apology,saying, however, that Msgr. Benellihad made the decision. But the Car-dinal pointed out that this was theusual method of the double-dealingof Paul VI.

As long as Pius XII lived, the Vati-can, for Father Villa, was more thanwelcoming: in addition to meetings,related to his activities as a secretagent, Father Villa dined and suppedat least fifty times with Cardinals andBishops. But when Paul VI came topower, he found himself deprived ofevery hospitality and every opportuni-ty to take steps to defend the CatholicFaith.

The premeditated failures

There were many initiatives andworks that Father Villa tried to initiatebut even under the pontificate of PiusXII, he was forced to fail. As early as 1953, when he was incar-dinated in the diocese of Ferrara, Fa-ther Luigi planned the foundation of agreat missionary movement formedmostly by technicians, under the titleIMI (International Missionary Insti-tute), but it was immediately stopped.On April 21, 1957, Father Villa found-ed the Movement “Euro-Afro-Asiat-ic,” linked to one of his magazinesthat bore the same title, and which hadalready been duly authorized by hisBishop, Msgr. Giambattista Bosio.But the movement also had a shortlife, because it was closed down.They made him quit, right after thefirst edition, another of his magazines:“Talk East-West,” which was pow-ered by another Institute for “Non-Christian Religions.”Again they prevented him fromfounding a “Center for Theologians”to fight the resurgent Modernism andProgressivism in the Church.

The order came directly from Msgr.Giovanni Benelli. In that same period, still the same Ma-sonic Pro-Secretary of State, Msgr.Benelli, prevented him from continu-ing a series of “Congresses of Study.” Father Villa managed to organize onlythe first three:

1. The First Congress of Rome, enti-tled “Orthodoxy and Ortho-praxy” (October 1-4, 1974);

2. The Florence Congress, entitled:“The Woman in the Light ofCatholic Theology” (Sept. 16-18,1975);

3. The Second Congress of Rome, en-titled: “Christianity and AtheisticCommunism” (Sept. 20-22, 1977).

In the two Congresses in Rome, thepresence of Cardinals prevented Msgr.Benelli to take direct action. Howev-er, for the Florence Congress, theArchbishop of Florence, CardinalFlorit, was ordered by Rome to pro-hibit participation in the Congress

to all the clergy of Florence. TheCardinal, regretting that command,immediately communicated that toFather Villa and promised to send aBishop to preside over the entire du-ration of the Conference. And so ithappened!Other initiatives that were abortedwere: the establishment of a “thirdbranch” of religious-seculars, to ac-company the various Missionary In-stitutes, and the initiative of “recruit-ment” of “vocations” to the priest-hood; initiatives that were then imi-tated by all the Seminaries and Mis-sionaries Institutes. However, his ini-tial plan of spiritual formation was de-viated and ended with their secular-ization.Personally, Father Villa found morethan fifty men who had vocationsand entered missionary seminaries.Men, who today, are priests. By now, it was clear that he was nolonger permitted to make any steps,realize any idea, or start any projectaimed to defend the Catholic Faith.

Father Villa had to refuse to accept of-fers of friends and … even enemies.He refused, in fact, several “dona-tions” of villas and huge sums of mon-ey. A Cardinal even wanted to givehim his entire property: two large pri-mary and secondary schools, alreadyin operation, and two villas with 60acres of olive trees and a church.Then, Card. Giuseppe Siri offeredhim the Benedictine Convent inGenoa. But Father Villa rejected it all,always, because he had already fore-seen the storm that was destroying theChurch, and therefore preferred tostay poor. He did not want to belinked and involved in economic andfinancial issues. However, most im-portantly, he wished to remain free todeal with the mandate he had receivedfrom Padre Pio and Pope Pius XII tohelp the Church to heal the confusedsituation in which She would befound under the attacks of ecclesiasti-cal Masonry!

For this reason, he said “no” to twowealthy Americans who offered himbillions if he gave them his magazine“Chiesa viva.”He also had the odd “offer” of a bil-lionaire American lawyer who said hewould be willing to finance him everystep of the way, if he could establishan organization to destroy the currenttraditional Church and establish a“new” one that would ensure triumph. Father Villa was always just as activein his priestly work of saving souls. Asingular case occurred in 1957, whenhe had a meeting with the famousItalian writer, Curzio Malaparte.First associated with Fascism andthen, towards the end of his life, toCommunism, Malaparte was lying ina clinic in Rome with cancer. His room was guarded by the famousCommunist thug, Secchia, to pre-vent passage to anyone who was notleftist. He also tried to prevent the en-trance of Father Villa, but could not.Malaparte smiled at him and said:

Cardinal Giuseppe Siri, a close friend of Fa-ther Villa, was elected Pope in 1963 and in1978, but the threats carried out by Freema-sonry, forced him to withdraw.

«You have character. You mustfight.» Another time, when he went tovisit him, Father Villa spoke of his planto found a new Institute. So great wasthe enthusiasm of Malaparte that hepromised that, if he recovered, hewould put his pen to his service. Thelast time he saw him, Malaparte toldFather Villa that, after much thought,he had decided to give him his villa inCapri, as the first headquarters of theInstitute he wanted to found. But noth-ing came of it because only a few dayslater, the room of Malaparte was rein-forced by the Communist, Secchia anda number of Communists of the man-agement of the magazine “Vie Nuove”(New Ways), who were successful inreceiving his villa in Capri as a dona-tion from Malaparte. (How this hap-pened, Father Villa never knew!)

Father Villa in Brescia

It was the grave situation, in whichhis parents were in, that pushed Fa-ther Villa to accept the incardinationin his diocese from the Archbishop ofChieti, Msgr. Giambattista Bosio, aswas suggested by the Secretary ofState, Cardinal Tardini. But it was asecret incardination, made in theBishop’s office, and, as the only wit-ness, his secretary, Msgr. AntonioStoppani. But Msgr. Bosio, after re-ceiving the approval from Rome,moved Father Villa to the diocese ofBrescia, with the approval of the localbishop to allow Father Villa to helphis parents even more. On September 15, 1962, Father Villaopened a “House of Formation,” inCodolazza Concesio - Brescia, enti-tled “Villa Immacolata (House ofthe Immaculate), to erect the “Insti-tute Operaie di Maria Immacolata”(Institute Workers of Mary Immacu-late) founded under the authorship ofBishop Bosio.

In 1964, the Senior Bishop of Bres-cia, Msgr. Giacinto Tredici, diedand was replaced by the Montinian,Msgr. Luigi Morstabilini.

On December 12, 1964, Msgr.Morstabilini promised Msgr. Bosiothat he would soon grant the Decreeof Approval of the Institute; thesame promise he made to Fr. Villa,three days later; in January 1965,there was the transfer of documents;on February 2, Father Villa acceptedcertain restrictive conditions on voca-tions coming from abroad; on Febru-ary 4, Msgr. Morstabilini assuredMsgr. Bosio that the document of ap-proval was “safe;” on February 7, Msgr.Morstabilini, on a visit to the parishin which the Institute of Father Villawas located, avoided the honor of hisvisit; on May 18, Msgr. Bosio, afteran interview with Msgr. Morstabilini,assured Father Villa that the Decree ofApproval was approaching.But on July 1, 1965, Father Villa re-ceived a letter from the Curia ofBrescia informing him of the Epis-

copal Delegate’s negative opinion inregard to the Commission’s ap-proval of the Institute. Faced with such hostility and duplicity,Father Villa communicated to Msgr.Bosio his intention to incardinate inanother diocese. His Bishop, so terri-bly sorry, replied: «No, no, don’t doit, stay here for my sake!»But this duplicity in the way of acting,forced the so patient and kind. Msgr.Bosio to ACT! «Enough! - he said to Father Villa -after all I am your Bishop. If theydo not understand my gentlenessand charity, I will go to Rome, andI will write to you.»On December 4, 1965, Msgr. Bosiowrote to Father Villa: «Dear FatherVilla, you can tell your daughtersthat the Immaculate has heard ourprayers. As, in Brescia, we couldnot conclude anything, I visited

Card. Pietro Palazzini ... » The letterended thus: «... because we don’t have,here in Rome, the stamps of the Curiaof Brescia, you can still celebrate the“founding day” on the feast of Im-maculate Conception. I will send the“Document” as soon as possible.»On December 8, 1965, Bishop Bosiosent to Father Villa the “Decree” forthe canonical foundation of his “Insti-tuto Operaie di Maria Immacolata.”On May 20, 1967, the Institute wasmoved to the city, on the street, GalileoGalilei, 121, Brescia, where it still re-sides to this day. Msgr. Giambattista Bosio, however,died a few days later, on May 25,1967.Father Villa was not aware of any ill-ness or other health problem thatcould suggest an imminent death ofhis Bishop. Only a few weeks beforehis death, the same Bishop Bosio,

told him: «When I retire, I want tocome live with you in your Insti-tute.» The same Sisters of the Insti-tute were thrilled at the thought ofhaving a character with them so fa-mous and important. When Bishop Bosio died, Father Villawas abroad. On his return, he imme-diately went to Chieti to pray at histomb.

The new Bishop of Chieti, and there-fore the Superior of Father Villa, wasMsgr. Loris Capovilla, former confi-dence man of the Bishop of Padua,Msgr. Girolamo Bortignon, who wasone of the worst enemies of PadrePio, former personal secretary of PopeJohn XXIII and Paul VI’s formerpersonal secretary, from 1963 to 1967.Father Luigi went to see him immedi-ately and had a conversation with theBishop. However rather than address-ing the issue of his incardination, hespoke with him for over an hour, try-ing to convince him not to write anymore articles against communism,because - he said - Soviet commu-nism will win and we must come toterms with Moscow!With the death of Msgr. Bosio, FatherVilla found himself caught in a vise:on the one hand, the former personalsecretary of Pope Paul VI, BishopCapovilla; on the other, the Montin-ian Bishop of Brescia, Msgr. Morsta-bilini. Archbishop Capovilla asked FatherVilla to incardinate in Brescia, whileMsgr. Morstabilini insisted that Fa-ther Villa remain incardinated in Chi-eti and continue his work in Brescia,while reconfirming his trust, respectand kindness, and then advised him to“let time solve the problem.”On February 4, 1968, in a letter to theVicar General of Brescia, Msgr.Pietro Gazzoli, Father Villa com-plained about the “meager under-standing and honesty” and the dualmode of action of Msgr. Morstabili-

ni, and reported two documents thatshow his bad faith: 1. A letter of Msgr. Morstabilini to

Msgr. Bosio (written after the de-cree of approval from Rome onDecember 8, 1965) in which heapologized for not having givenhim such a “Decree” because thiswas his intention. He blamed theCommission of the Curia for hav-ing prevented it.

2. Another letter of Msgr. Morsta-bilini to a parish from Bergamo, inwhich, he, instead, said the exactopposite: while recognizing thatFather Villa had received a Decreeof Approval for his Institute, he

Archbishop Loris Capovilla had been person-al secretary of John XXIII and of Paul VI un-til 1967. When he was made Bishop of Chieti,after the death of Msgr. Bosio, he became thedirect Superior of Father Villa.

15

said, though, that if it was up tohim, this Decree would have neverbeen granted.

On September 3, 1968, Father Villareceived an “ultimatum” from theVicar General of Chieti, Msgr. F.Marinis, to be incardinated in Bres-cia, within the end of the year. On December 15, 1968, Father Villawrote a letter to Card. Pietro Palazz-ini informing him of all these maneu-vers which were aimed to “under-mine” the Institute, that had recentlybeen founded.

These are only the primary examplesof the “modus operandi” of FatherVilla’s enemies: enemies who havenever faced him fairly and in an openfield, but always acting from behind,with duplicity, hitting him with everymeans, including, as we shall see, theassassination attempts.

Beginning of “The Way of the Cross”

The era of being well-received in Vat-ican circles, during the last period ofthe Pius XII’s reign, had vanished,and now, the isolation and persecutionhad begun.The relationship of seeming predilec-tion with Pius XII, suddenly, turnedinto one of initiating a lethal policy:«Ignore him and make him ig-nored!»

An attitude of Paul VI which shows his impatience when he was contradicted.

The Angelic Pope Pius XII.

16

Here are two facts that illustrate thesetwo different attitudes:

One day, Father Villa sought and im-mediately obtained an audience withthe Angelic Pope Pius XII. This tookplace in a palatial room, crowded withpeople. Pope Pius XII asked for Fr.Villa. Father Villa came forth and af-ter a brief exchange of words, PiusXII took his hands in his andhugged him in front of everyone, asif to signify his predilection for thispriest to whom, in secret, He had giv-en a tremendous mandate that hadnever before been entrusted to anyother priest.

Indeed, it was much different, yearslater, in regards to the meeting be-tween Father Villa and Paul VI.On July 14, 1971, one of his religiousof the “Istituto Operaie di MariaImmacolata,” Sister Natalina Ghi-rardelli, was received in “private au-dience” by Paul VI. The Pope hadwanted to congratulate her for theportrait that the Sister (a portraitpainter) had made of him, and hadbeen offered to the Pope, as a gift onthe 50th anniversary of his priesthood(1970). Father Villa accompanied Sis-ter Natalina, to Rome as her FatherSuperior.Upon entering the reception room, Fa-ther Villa noted that Pope Paul VI wassitting in the center of the room. Fa-ther Villa then noticed that the Popeimmediately looked at his Sister Na-talina, the portrait painter, with enam-ored eyes that never left their gaze,squeezing and holding her handsthroughout the entire time of the audi-ence. Father Villa, who was standingnext to the Nun, was never given aso much as a glance by Paul VI,even for a moment. At the gesture ofFather Villa offering some of hisbooks to the Pope, Paul VI, againwithout looking at him, gesturedwith his left hand to his secretary,

Msgr. Pasquale Macchi, who cameand took the books, leaving Fr. Villain silence – not able to utter a word.At the end of the interview, Paul VIblessed the Nun and gave her aRosary, and then gave the Rosarypouch to Father Villa, but still with-out looking at him. And he contin-ued to ignore him even when he andhis Sister Natalina walked towardthe exit.At that occasion, Father Luigi under-stood that this inconceivable gestureof Paul VI to him, was a signal of thebeginning of his “Way of the Cross.”For this is what exactly happened!

The Magazine “Chiesa viva”

To fight the battle that Padre Pio hadgiven him, Father Villa needed aMagazine, but one that was free fromecclesiastical pressures or suppres-sions.Msgr. Bosio suggested that he should

join the Order of Journalists andfound his own Magazine, so that theecclesiastical authorities could not,somehow, cause it to fail. Father Vil-la, then, joined the National Associa-tion of Journalists, taking the Cardnumber 0055992. At that time, to hiscredit, he had about thirty publica-tions (theological, ascetic, literary,and political) and over a thousand “ar-ticles” have already been published inmagazines and newspapers.

In 1971, Fr. Villa founded his Review“Chiesa viva,” with correspondentsand collaborators in all continents.The first issues were released on thedate September, 1971. A few monthslater, in Vienna, on December 14,1971, Father Luigi had a personal en-counter with Card. Joseph Mind-szenty who, after having been humil-iated and degraded by Paul VI, for notaccepting to reach out to Commu-

nism, left Rome. The Cardinal readthe entire first issue of “Chiesa viva”and was so enthusiastic that he put hissignature on the copy he had read. Atthe end of the meeting, after two anda half hours of a passionate and en-lightening interview, he told FatherVilla: «Believe me, Paul VI deliv-ered entire Christian Countries intothe hands of Communism ... »

On September 24, 1971, “il Messag-gero Abruzzo” carried an article enti-tled: “The Archbishop (Msgr.Capovilla) retires.” Approximatelyone hundred million liras had disap-peared from the coffers of the dioceseand Msgr. Capovilla had publiclysuggested this was the fault of theprevious Bishop, Msgr. GiambattistaBosio. Soon afterward, the Prefectand the Chief of Police communicat-ed with Paul VI, saying that, if Msgr.Capovilla was not removed from thediocese of Chieti within three days,they would have to indite him and put

him in jail. Thus, Msgr. Capovillawas transferred to Loreto.

But the war against Father Villa con-tinued. It was the Mason Pro-Secretary ofState, Msgr. Giovanni Benelli whoofficially coined the new strategy ofwar against Father Villa. In meetingswith his staff, speaking of Father Lui-gi, Msgr. Benelli would say: «Weneed to silence that Father Villa!»But when someone objected: «YourEminence! Rather, we must prove himwrong.» The Cardinal, irritated,replied: «Well, then ignore him andmake him ignored!»

But this was not enough, for the voiceof Father Villa was his magazine“Chiesa viva” and this “voice” hadto be silenced.If the magazine was not immediatelyfrontally attacked, it had to do withthe fact that the Deputy Director of“Chiesa viva” was the famous Ger-man philosopher and converted Jew,Prof. Dietrich von Hildebrand,whom Paul VI knew, but also feared.Then, the war began with the theolog-ical-collaborators that were activewith Father Villa and his “Chiesa vi-va.” Archbishop Benelli wrote a let-ter to each of them ordering tocease working with Father Luigi.Father Villa learned of this action ofthe Holy See, just because one of hisaides immediately informed him ofthis order received from the top.Thus, the scorched earth around“Chiesa viva” was created!The enemies of Father Villa, with thecomplicity of the kind of clergy whoprefers a quiet life, that is, avoidingthe hassles of not quickly falling in“line to their way of thinking” that is“suggested” or “imposed” from thetop, began another course of action:slandering.So, Father Villa became:“lazy,”“crazy,” “fascist,” “anti-Semite,” “out-

side the Church,” “heretic,” “priest ofextreme conservative tendencies andpre-conciliar,” “a destroyer of Charityopening the way for defamation,”“spewer of arrogance as he believes heis the proud bearer of the truth” ... andmost recently, “author of libel,” and“worthy of any punitive measures,”which “were not carried out so as notto humiliate a ninety two year oldpriest.”Then, “late night telephone calls”were made which contained insults,slanders, profanity, and threats to de-moralize Chiesa viva’s editor! Thiswent on for a long time!Despite all of this, “Chiesa viva,”continued to live!

Dietrich von Hildebrand was born in Flo-rence in 1889 and graduated in philosophy in1912. He converted to Catholicism in 1914.He was a university professor in Germany,Austria, Switzerland, France and the UnitedStates. He accepted the position of Deputy Di-rector of “Chiesa viva,” from 1971 until hisdeath on January 25, 1977.

Some assassination attempts

To silence a priest like Father Villa,however, there is only one sure way:physical elimination. In fact, in hislife there have been seven assassina-tion attempts.I will mention three, briefly.

1st

Father Villa was returning fromRome to Brescia by car. Shortly be-fore the city of Arezzo, the road onthe right bordered a sheer drop of atleast 100 meters. In that stretch, he re-alized he was being followed by a carthat, then, came along side, forcinghim, little by little, to the edge of theroadside. What to do? Father Villa,now saw death in front of him. At thatmoment, however, a police car drovepast. Father Villa sounded his horn tocall him back, but the sideswiping carsped away and disappeared.The Lord had saved him from certaindeath! Father Villa mentioned this in-

cident with Card. Palazzini, in thepresence of Professor Luigi Gedda,who stated: «So, we are at war.»

2nd

Father Villa was traveling by car, tovisit his priest friend, Father Berni,pastor of Corlanzone at Lonigo (Vi-cenza). He left the highway and wasdriving on the road that would lead toits destination. Suddenly, his limbs,hands and legs, became immobile andhe felt paralyzed. Who had given himnarcotics?At a bend in the road, Father Villa,with his eyes wide open, saw the cargoing straight into a field that bor-dered a canal, 6-7 meters wide andtwo meters deep, filled with plenty ofwater and a lot of mud. He saw every-thing as in a dream, without beingable to move. His legs and arms re-mained paralyzed. Now, the car con-tinued to race and was just a few me-ters from the canal ... now only a fewinches from the edge, suddenly, thecar’s engine abruptly stopped. It was agreat miracle!

A few seconds more and he wouldhave fallen into the canal and disap-peared at the bottom, with his car ashis coffin.With the sudden stopping of the car,Father Villa recovered and got out ofthe car. He found himself surroundedby a crowd and a policeman asking ifhe should take him to hospital. FatherVilla refused; he climbed into the carand drove off.

3rd

After several months, Father Villapaid a visit to a priest “friend,” andafter having finished lunch with a cupof coffee, he came home. During thetrip, however, he began to feel sick.Arriving home, he was in such a statethat his doctor was immediatelycalled. The diagnosis was “poison-ing”. The doctor said: «Did they giveyou a poisoned coffee?» However,over the next several days, the doctor

managed to pull Father Villa out ofthe danger of death. After several years of accompanyingFather Villa on visits to his high-rank-ing friends and having acquired a deepknowledge on the problem of Mason-ic infiltration in the Church, I attendeda meeting on the issue of the “List ofPecorelli” which was published by“Chiesa viva” just a few months be-fore the attempted poisoning. I heard one of them recalling thewords of Card. Silvio Oddi about this“List.” The Cardinal said: «This is apartisan list.» The other, however,said: «The “List of Pecorelli” is thelist of all the men of Card. Casaroli,»and added: «Card. Casaroli is the

Cardinal Casaroli, appeared in the “List ofPecorelli” with the date of registration:28/09/1957, Serial Number: 41/076 andAcronym: CASA. Under Paul VI, CardinalCasaroli was Minister of Foreign Affairs andthe main proponent of the Montinian policy ofopening to Communism, called “Ostpolitik.”John Paul II elevated him to Secretary ofState.

In the presentation, afterstressing the reliability of this “List” Agnoli says:«... Father Esposito informs us that among the protagonists of the bilateral dialogues betweenrepresentatives of the Church and Masonry, which took place between 1966 and 1977, there wasthe Salesian, Don Vincenzo Miano, Secretary of the “Secretariat for non-believers” and authorof a book entitled: “The Secretariat for Non-believers and Freemasonry”. Father Esposito re-ports that Don Miano participated in all these dialogues “and then explaining the positionsgained to the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and just like Paul VI, who wasfollowing and encouraging these meetings”».

In fact, the discussion continued withthe consideration that Card. Casaroliwas so powerful in the Vatican thatonly Freemasonry could have stoppedhim, if they had not chosen him asPope.

Benelli, Casaroli, Ruini

Msgr. Giovanni Benelli was, first,Pro-Secretary of State, then, in 1977,he became the Bishop of Florence,and soon after, he was made Cardinal.After the death of Paul VI, he tried tobe elected Pope, but instead Card.Siri was elected, who, because of theterrible threats made by the sameCard. Benelli, had to surrender. And so, as a compromise, Card. Lu-ciani was elected, under the nameJohn Paul I. But after 33 days of his reign, JohnPaul I was murdered.It was the same Father Villa who askedCard. Palazzini to have an autopsy

During the Pontificate of John Paul II,“Chiesa viva” denounced the membership ofCard. Casaroli to Freemasonry, a Prelateshowed this evidence to John Paul II, the Popesaid: «I know, I know, but I do not know whoto put in his place!»

John Paul I was murdered after 33 days of hispontificate. It was Father Villa who orderedCard. Palazzini to conduct an autopsy. Threeautopsies were conducted, which were called“medical examinations” and they all ended upwith the verdict: “Assassinated!”

25

made of the Pope, and to be more con-vincing, he gathered the Press inRome, hinting at possibility of mur-der. Card. Palazzini, then, arrangedthree autopsies, which were called“medical examinations.” The resultsof all three was: “Assassinated!” The publication of the “List ofPecorelli” cut short the candidacy ofCard. Casaroli. After the death ofLuciani [John Paul I], there was an-other clash between Siri and Benelli,however, the real predestined andfavorite of Freemasonry, Card.Karol Woytjla was elected.With the death of Card. GiovanniBenelli, in 1982, Card. AgostinoCasaroli became the most powerfulman in the Vatican.

But “Chiesa viva” still had a veryvaliant and courageous staff, because,besides those who abandoned the bat-tle, there were also people who, de-spite their high position in the Vati-can, were outspoken collaborators ofFather Villa’s Review and his true de-fenders. One of them was Msgr. Nicolino Sar-ale, who worked in the Secretariat ofState office from 1978 to 1995, theyear of his death. Msgr. Sarale wrotebooks and four complete [liturgicial]cycles of Homilies for priests for“Chiesa viva”. In the last years of hislife, he had a column in “Osservato-rio Romano,” in which he denouncedthe growing crisis within the Church. Msgr. Sarale was not only a collabo-rator, but also the “sentinel” of Fa-ther Villa in the office of Secretaryof State, He wrote long letters to himon sensitive issues and hot topics ofthe Church. He was a bright andcourageous man: every month hewould receive 50 copies of “Chiesaviva” which he distributed withinthe Secretary of State department.He had the courage to defend Fa-ther Villa in front of senior Prelates,and even in front of the Pope.

Some years after the death of this dearfriend of Father Luigi, I began puttingtogether various phrases that I hadheard from Father and read in news-paper articles, I managed to get anidea about the strange death of Ms-gr. Sarale, on Sept. 27, 1995.

One day, Father Villa told me abouthis visits to Msgr. Sarale, who,speaking of his health, talked abouthis ailment in his knee and some in-jections that the doctor was giving tohim. Father Luigi obtained the enve-lope of the packaging of these injec-tions from Msgr. Sarale and showedthem to his doctor, who, after associ-ating the disease with the injectionsgiven to Msgr. Sarale said: «Butthese injections cause cancer!»In fact, Msgr. Sarale died followingan operation that was necessary to

save him from cancer, which had de-veloped in the stomach, with anamazing speed.After the death of Msgr. Sarale, thenewspapers broke with the news ofthe scandal of John Paul II’s doctor,who - they said - had managed toreach that position without any en-trance examinations, and after thescandal, he vanished. Was he the samedoctor who had given the injections toMsgr. Nicolino Sarale?

The year, 1990, at the scene of theVatican, saw the withdrawal of theCard. Casaroli as Secretary of State,the decline of the Card. Ugo Poletti,President of the Italian EpiscopalConference (CEI) and Vicar of HisHoliness, and the simultaneous rise ofMsgr. Camillo Ruini.The Cardinals Casaroli and Poletti,were both Masons, pointed out in the“List of Pecorelli” with an initiationdate, Serial number and Acronym.Card. Casaroli was the standardbearer of the pro-Communist policyof Paul VI called “Ostpolitik” andfrom his post as Secretary of State,next to John Paul II, was the mostpowerful man in the Vatican, who wassecond only to Card. Ugo Poletti,who had a stellar career, with Paul VI,for a very special reason.When he became Archbishop of Mi-lan, Msgr. Montini decided to closeand move the “The People of Italy,”a well-established newspaper, pub-lished by the Diocese of Novara. TheBishop of Novara, Msgr. Gilla Vin-cenzo Gremigni, protested that thisact was not under the jurisdiction ofArchbishop Montini. In early January,1963, only six months before his elec-tion to the papacy, Montini sent a let-ter to the Archbishop of Novara ofsuch hard content, reading it, Msgr.Gremigni had a heart attack anddied. The letter was found by Msgr.Ugo Poletti, who kept it for himself. When Montini became Pope, the

ghost of Archbishop Gremigni fol-lowed him in the person of Msgr.Poletti. In 1967, the Italian press re-ceived information that the death ofArchbishop Gremigni had to do withthe new Pope.

Soon after, Msgr. Poletti had a seriesof promotional “miracles” by PopePaul VI: Bishop of Spoleto (1967),Vice Regent of Rome, who is theclosest collaborator of Card. AngeloDell’Acqua (State Secretary and Vic-ar of the Pope) (1969), Cardinal(1973), Vicar of the Pope (1973),President of The Italian Conferenceof Bishops (CEI) (1985).

Msgr. Ugo Poletti, Vicar General of the bish-op of Novara, Msgr. Gremigni, in 1967 begana strange and amazing career, linked to thedeath of his bishop, caused by Msgr. Montini,Archbishop of Milan.

27

In 1986, Msgr. Camillo Ruini, hadbecome the darling of the Card. Po-letti as his Secretary of the CEI, but afew years later, in 1991, Msgr. Ruiniappeared at the top of Vatican power.In quick succession, he was appoint-ed: Cardinal, Vicar of the Pope andPresident of CEI, maintaining thelatter two titles for many and, per-haps, too many years.In 1991, Cardinal Camillo Ruini,had become the most powerful man inthe Vatican.The same year, 1991, Father Villa be-gan publishing in “Chiesa viva,” along series of articles against the Neo-Catechumenal movement. Then, onMay 13, 2000, these were all collect-ed and published in a book entitled:“Heresies in the Neo-CatechumenalDoctrine” that denounced the 18heresies of the Movement directed byFrancis Argüello, known as “Kiko,”and his partner, a former nun namedCarmen Hernandez. To be sure, Card. Ruini didn’t like

these attacks, since, he, himself, wasthe official protector of this hereti-cal movement.

More death threats ... and a “trial”

In the issue N° 248 of “Chiesa viva”of February, 1994, Father Villa pub-lished an article titled “PDS Scopri-amo le carte” (P.D.S. - Leftist Demo-cratic Party: Let’s Lay the Cards onthe Table), of which I was co-author.It was an attack on Communism anddenunciation of its Masonic origins. Itrather proved that Communism isnothing but a political version ofthe secret program of the SatanicOrder of the Bavarian Illuminati todestroy the Catholic Church andChristian civilization.With this article, Father Villa wantedto make pamphlets to distribute, cov-ering entire cities of Italy.

In 1991, Msgr. Camillo Ruini became “Vicar of His Holiness”, “Cardinal” and “President ofCEI”. He had become the most powerful man in the Vatican!

28

And so we did. On February 26, 1994, we distributedthe pamphlets in the Piedmont townof Ivrea. The problem was that, in thetext, the data of the “List of Pecorelli”that listed some Prelates belonging toFreemasonry, included the Bishop ofIvrea, Msgr. Luigi Bettazzi. Flyinginto a rage, because of the distributionin his diocese, Msgr. Bettazzi imme-diately declared to the press that hewould sue the authors of the dossier.Then, he changed his mind and suedonly Father Luigi Villa.Brescia was in a turmoil. Many prieststhought that, at last, it was time to si-lence Father Villa who, in addition to“insulting” bishops such as Bettazzi,just as in recent issues of “Chiesa vi-va” N° 246 and N° 247, he had alsopublished a highly critical article onthe interview of the Archbishop of Mi-lan, Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini,which had appeared in “The SundayTimes” on April 26, 1993.Many were anxious and awaiting the

moment when, finally, “justice”would be meted out! The trial date was set for January 31,1995, at the Court of Brescia.As if that were not enough, in the is-sues of “Chiesa viva” N° 254 and N°255, of September and October 1994,Father Villa published another criticalarticle on a new interview that Card.Martini made to “Le Monde,” pub-lished January 4, 1994.In Brescia, the atmosphere was hotand buzzing. The same Msgr. Bet-tazzi was stoking the fire and, onNovember 30, 1994, wrote a letter toFather Villa in harsh tones, called fora “proper and adequate reparationfor compensation of damages,” andin which he claimed to be sorry to“have to continue an unfortunatedispute … ” The fateful day came on Jan. 31, butnothing happened! The priests ofBrescia were dumbfounded and couldnot understand how a process so ea-gerly awaited and for so long taken

After the wide distribution, in the diocese of Ivrea, of the dossier, “PDS: scopriamo le carte”(P.D.S. Let’s Lay the Cards on the Table), Msgr. Bettazzi sued Father Luigi Villa and began a“mock trial” that came up with nothing. Why?

for granted by the press, could havehad an outcome so unpredictable anddisappointing.But I remember that towards the endof 1994, Fr. Villa asked me to type aletter addressed to the Secretary ofState, Card. Angelo Sodano, inwhich he said that he was not goingto become a victim and that hewould make known the names of allthe Cardinals ... Soon after, Fr. Villa’s lawyer was con-tacted by the lawyer of Msgr. Bet-tazzi because the Bishop of Ivrea de-sired to be received by Father Villa.The meeting took place in early Janu-ary. Msgr. Bettazzi, just walked intothe office of Fr. Villa, asked if FatherVilla would allow him to withdrawthe complaint. The interview lastedover an hour.

Later, in a letter dated January 9,1995, Msgr. Bettazzi thanked FatherVilla for receiving him and said thathe “realized his good faith” addingthe phrase: «... I am agreeable toconsider immediately what I want-ed to do from the very beginning,that is to withdraw the complaint»and ended the letter with the words:«And ... Arrivederci, in Heaven, youwill finally discover that, among myfaults, there absolutely will not be thatone of belonging to Freemasonry.»

But Father Villa was not in Paradiseyet. On March 28, 1995, he wrote aletter to the Secretary of State, Card.Angelo Sodano, demanding the re-moval of Msgr. Bettazzi from thediocese of Ivrea, listing 11 seriousreasons and including the evidence ofthe Bishop of Ivrea’s membership in-to Freemasonry. He also proved thatthe work of Msgr. Bettazzi, as Presi-dent of Pax Christi International,had the aim of realizing the satanicplan, today called “New Age,” of de-

stroying the Catholic Church andChristian civilization.I always wondered if this “mock tri-al” of Msgr. Bettazzi had somethingto do with the articles published byFather Villa on the interviews ofCard. Martini, but the only itemworth mentioning is I remember thatone day Father Villa showed me abook in which there was written thatif Cardinal Martini had become Pope,his Secretary of State, in all probabil-ity, would have been Msgr. LuigiBettazzi.

Then, for months, entire cities of Italywere covered with the pamphlet“PDS: Scopriamo le Carte,” but theeffects of these distributions weredeath threats.I got a postcard that had a “Five-pointed Star” on it with a deaththreat; the postcard was followed byother threats that reached me byphone and by fax.

At that time, the articles published by“Chiesa viva” on the interviews ofCard. Martini in “The SundayTimes” and “Le Monde” were fol-lowed by relating dossiers and exten-sive distribution.In January, 1996, another critical arti-cle and dossier was published onCard. Martini’s book: “Israele radicesanta” (Israel’s holy root), in whichthe Cardinal encouraged Catholics toread the Talmud.

On December 19, 1998, Msgr. BrunoForesti, was succeeded by Msgr.Giulio Sanguineti, former Bishop ofLa Spezia-Sarzana, and before that,Bishop of Savona.Msgr. Sanguineti, still very young,was appointed Vicar General by hisBishop of Chiavari, Msgr. LuigiMaverna whose name appears in the“List of Pecorelli,” with Initiationdate: 3/6/1968, Serial number: 441/c,and Acronym: LUMA.

On February 6, 2000, Father Villapublished the book: “Si spieghi Emi-nenza!” (Explain yourself, Emi-nence!) cornering the Archbishop ofMilan, Cardinal Martini, who, tocounter the attack, involved the Bish-op of Brescia, Msgr. Sanguineti, in amisguided attempt of defense. TheBishop wrote a personal letter datedMarch 7, 2000 to the Cardinal, againstFather Villa.Without proving the existence of evenminor errors in the book, the letterdenigrated Father Villa for his writ-ings on Paul VI and used generic andoffensive phrases such as: “smearcampaigns,” “one-sided and radical-ized interpretations,” “absolutely un-civil procedures,” “wound of charity,”“extremely conservative and pre-con-ciliar tendencies” ... At the end, Msgr.Sanguineti promised the Cardinal:

The Ruinian Msgr. Giulio Sanguineti, Bishopof Brescia from 1998 to 2007.

«… We are committed to stemmingas much as possible and fightingwith the allowed means this resur-gence of arrogance and proud pre-sumption of being holders of thetruth.»We never knew if the letter was to re-main confidential. The Cardinal pub-lished the letter in the diocesan bul-letin, making it publicly available tothe clergy of Milan.Then, Msgr. Sanguineti asked for apersonal meeting with Father Villa.During this interview, on the subjectof Masonic infiltration in the Church,he also made reference to the Bishop,Msgr. Sanguineti snapped: «But doyou believe that I am a Mason?»«Yes, certainly.» Said Father Villa,presenting, as a determinant, the factthat he was made Vicar General by

Mason Msgr. Maverna (who was lat-er expelled from his diocese due toone of Fr. Villa’s intervention). It wasalso based on the fact that FatherVilla had heard this directly froman authoritative source in the Ma-sonic field. The Bishop did not react,but went into another room to cooloff, and came back, then composed.However, Father Villa received a copyof the letter written by the Bishop ofBrescia, from a graduate of Milan,who also informed him about thewide distribution in that diocese. This letter deserved a proper “Re-sponse,” accompanied with four arti-cles of Father Villa, from a famous Je-suit, a prominent lawyer of Interna-tional Law and from an Attorney Gen-eral at the Court of Cassazione. The“Response” was published in “Chiesaviva” and also printed as a dossier.

Book cover: “Si speieghi, Eminenza!” (Ex-plain Yourself, Eminence!) published in 2000.

Cover of the dossier: “Response to a letterfrom the Bishop of Brescia,” published in2000.

31

Msgr. Sanguineti, then, went on toperform other “itinerant” tasks thattook him to South America.In the diocese of Brescia, Msgr. San-guineti will be remembered for an-other of one of his works. Threeweeks before being replaced as Bish-op of Brescia, on September 23, 2007,

he consecrated the first church of thethird millennium of the diocese. Thechurch, which turned out to be aSatanic-Masonic Temple, is locatedin a wonderful setting at the foot ofthe hill of Padergnone, a hamlet ofRodengo Saiano (Brescia). It is knownfor the strange spiral shape of the out-er wall of stone that surrounds it.

32

By now, the coup de grace could nolonger be delayed.In October 2000, Father Villa sent tothe top of the Church and the JesuitOrder an envelope, containing docu-ments relating to Card. Carlo MariaMartini, of such gravity that thisended the career of the Cardinal inMilan.The documents were accompanied bya letter signed by Father Villa andmyself, in which recipients were ad-vised that if anything happened to thefamily of the person who had provid-ed testimony and documents, or tomy family, the contents of the enve-lope, already in the hands of dozensof trusted people, would be handedover to the Judiciary and the Police,and the first to be investigated wouldbe Card. Carlo Maria Martini.

***

At the time, Msgr. Sanguineti did notonly seem accommodating towardsCard. Martini, but also in respect tohis “Responsible Master,” Card.Camillo Ruini. There were many articles written in“Chiesa viva” against the hereticalmovement of Neo-Catechumenal,whose official patron was Card.Camillo Ruini, the most powerfulman in the Vatican.After his first year as Bishop of Bres-cia, Msgr. Sanguinetti had an officialmeeting, on December 19, 1999, atthe Sport Palace of San Filippo, in thecity of Brescia, with the Neo-Cate-chumenal communities of the Dioceseof Lombardy, Verona, Piacenza andFidenza, where he had words of en-couragement for this heretical move-ment.A few months later, on May 13, 2000,Father Villa published the book enti-tled: “Heresies in the Neo-Catechu-menal Doctrine,” containing 18heresies of the most secret Catechismof Kiko, consisting of 373 pages.

Book cover: “Heresies in the Neo-Catechu-menal Doctrine,” reporting the 18 heresies ofthis heretical movement, whose official patronis Cardinal Camillo Ruini!

Paul VI beatified?

Freemasonry wanted her man Paul VIon the altars. Part of the plan was toput the two Popes, John XXIII andPaul VI, on the altars in order toprove the nature of Vatican II wasindeed “supernatural.”

During the course of the proceedingsof the XXXV Assembly of the ItalianBishops Cardinal Ruini, announcedthe decision to introduce the “causeof beatification” of Paul VI beforethe Pope and the Bishops.On May 13, 1992, Card. Ruini, pres-ident of the CEI and the Vicar of thePope for Rome, issued an edict which,among other things, reads: «We inviteall individual believers to communi-

cate directly or submit to the dioce-san tribunal of the Vicariate ofRome any “news” from which wecan argue to some extent againstthe reputation of sanctity of the said“Servant of God”.»But Father Villa wanted to see thingsmore clearly. So on May 25, 1992, hetelephoned Secretary of State, Msgr.Nicolino Sarale, the faithful friendand collaborator of “Chiesa viva,”asking about this decision of Card.Ruini to open the “beatification” ofPaul VI.Well, Msgr. Sarale told Father Villathat this decision was a “forcedcoup” by Card. Ruini, because mostof the Italian Bishops would havenever wanted it!The “cause of beatification” contin-ued to proceed until the year 1997.Father Villa was aware of the fact thatCard. Pietro Palazzini had sent aletter to the Postulator for the“cause of beatification” of Paul VIthat contained three names of thelast homosexual lovers of Paul VI.

In 1992, Cardinal Camillo Ruini announcedthe introduction of the “beatification cause”of Paul VI with a “forced coup” against themajority of the Italian Bishops who didn’twant it.

33

34

Cardinal Pietro Palazzini was anauthority in this field, because theCardinal held two binders of docu-ments that demonstrated, unequiv-ocally, the impure and unnaturalvice of Paul VI.Then, Father Villa wrote a letter to thePostulator, referring to what he hadknown from Card. Palazzini.

The book “Paul VI beatified?” wasreleased in February, 1998. I took onthe task of organizing the shipment ofthe first 5,000 copies.Pope, Cardinals, Bishops and thou-sands of Italian Priests were given acopy of this book simultaneously.From Rome, someone told us that theVicar of the Pope, Cardinal Ruini,was furious. He wondered who had fi-nanced the printing and mailing ofthese books, free of charge, to thou-sands of members of the Italian Cler-gy. When Father Villa told me aboutthis telephone call, smiling, he said:«We should respond to the Vicar ofHis Holiness, that the lenders arethree Persons and their names are: Fa-ther, Son and Holy Spirit.»

The reactions to the book were vio-lent, and as a result, I, as the sender,had my share of this irrational and fu-rious reaction.We even received several copies ofthe book with all the pages torn outand containing phrases and epithets,written in black marker, to embarrasseven the wicked and most hardened. Ikept some of these copies, while themost vulgar, Father Villa threw out.The diocese of Brescia was in tur-moil. The Bishop, Msgr. BrunoForesti, promised the diocesan clergythat a book to refute that of FatherVilla would be written.After more than twelve years, thosepromises and commitments haven’teven appeared on the horizon! The fair battle fought openly does notseem to be an advantageous method

of combating a priest like Father Lui-gi Villa!The result of the book was clear toeveryone: it had blocked the “beati-fication cause” of Paul VI. No onewas able to refute the volume, that is,the avalanche of “facts,” “quota-tions,” “documents” and “pictures”shown in the book, which did justiceto a Pope who had committed per-

jury, by putting into place, during hispontificate, just the opposite of whathe, himself, had promised to accom-plish with a solemn oath on the day ofhis coronation.

35

The book “Paul VI beatified?” was the natural consequence of the refusal by the Postulator of the “beatification cause” of Paul VI to take into due consideration

the “fact” concerning the impure and unnatural vice of Paul VI.

36

John Paul II in Brescia

But there were those who did not ac-cept the surrender!Without considering the merits of thearguments raised by Father Villa, theonly solution was to place all theweight of papal authority in theircamp! Only a visit of the Pope toBrescia could raise the fate of the“beatification cause” of Paul VI.And so, the visit of Pope John Paul IIin Brescia, from September 19-20,1998 was announced. The occasionwas the beatification of GiuseppeTovini from Brescia, which, however,was associated with the “beatifica-tion cause” of Paul VI.But Fr. Villa didn’t lose heart. On Au-gust 15, 1998, he wrote a long letterto Secretary of State, Card. AngeloSodano, explicitly asking to cancelthe visit of the Pope to Brescia. Thereason was that the spread of the book“Paul VI beatified?” had beenachieved and that he had received en-thusiastic letters from influential peo-ple in the judicial and cultural world.But the most serious reason was thedamage that the Church would sufferfrom an uncaring attitude of a Pope,regarding the disturbing facts and giv-en the harsh reality described anddemonstrated in the book of Fr. Villa.In the letter, Father Villa acknowl-edged the strong tone of his book, andthe difficulties of a clergy not accus-tomed to this language. However, heexplained that this was only the “vio-lence of love” for the Church and thatthis “violence” was a duty when thehigh values of the Faith were at stake:«One who really loves the Churchcan’t fail to speak out when one seesit in disarray. Otherwise, it would becowardice to prefer silence to protest!How cowardly is one who lacks thecourage and sensitivity to supportthose who fight on the front line, the“good fight” for the Faith!

My book, therefore, is not advisable forthose who have little love for the Truthand who are sickened by superficiality,and for those who deceive themselvesinto being content behind the screen ofthe misconception: “Let’s love eachother.”Mine, then, was only the “courage”of those who feel free (“The truthshall make you free” Jo. 8, 32) to betruly responsible. Sure, it’s a toughjob. Today, it takes courage! Yet, it isessential, although there is always a

risk you have to take! If Christ would-n’t have had the “courage” to speakout and whip His enemies (Pharisees,Scribes, Teachers of the law, the HighPriests!) He, too, could have died,[comfortably] in a bed [without suf-fering His Crucifixion].»Then he continued: «Your Eminence!Jesus rebuked them, then, for theirgrave infidelity, at the pastoral lev-el. And he scolded them for their

The book “Pope Paul VI, a Pope on Trial?” a continuation of the previous book, “Paul VI beatified?” was the answer to the attempt by the Vatican to continue the

“cause of beatification” of Paul VI with the visit of Pope John Paul II in Brescia, in 1998.

own harmful “tolerance” towardcertain disrupters of the faith, leavingthem to operate unhindered, so theyshare the responsibility for those er-rors that led the faithful astray. Now, isn’t this the story of Paul VI?Perchance, did not Paul VI give freereign to all the progressives, moreor less heretical, allowing them touproot the Faith from Its founda-tion? And so, the Church today ap-pears to have been scorched; behindHer are only the traces of Her Christ-ian civilization! Therefore, with thisbook, the undersigned, attempted toremove the mask to look in the mirrorof truth! This is because no one hasthe right to close his eyes to what hap-pened in the Church through the neg-ligence of a Pope who even nowwants to raise him to the Altars.»And again: «For this, Your Eminence,I repeat: How could the Pope (JohnPaul II) still make a defense, even ifrhetorically-academic, of Paul VI, af-ter what I wrote and “documented” onhim, and after the “letter” that I sentto all the Italian Episcopate - a monthago! - In which I brought back the“photo of Paul VI” with his lefthand which shows well-marked, the“five-pointed star”, or “MasonicPentalpha,” as it had been carved onthe “first panel” of the original,which appeared on the “Bronzedoor” of St. Peter’s Basilica, inRome, and also appeared as shown onthe Special Insert of the “OsservatoreRomano” of September 25, 1977?»The letter ended with these words: «Inthe firm and supernatural hope thatmy dutiful request is graciously ac-cepted by Your Eminence, for the loveI bear for the Holy Church, my Moth-er, please accept also my priestly re-spect in C. J. et M. [in Christ Jesusand Mary].»

But the request was not accepted andJohn Paul II traveled to Brescia torevive the fate of the “cause of beat-

ification” for Paul VI.Then, after a year, in December, 1999,Father Villa published a second bookon Paul VI entitled: “Paul VI, a Popeon Trial?” which was simply a con-tinuation of the first book. This book was also sent to the Pope,cardinals, bishops and part of the Ital-ian clergy.The reaction this time was much moremoderate.

A Masonic memorial to Paul VI

It was not the first time that Freema-sonry used the full weight of authori-ty of a Pope to trample on “proven”truths and to impose a forced course,or to overcome the hostility of an en-tire population.This happened in 1984 when the per-sonal secretary of Paul VI, MasonMsgr. Pasquale Macchi decided toerect a monument to Pope Paul VI, inthe square of the Shrine of Our Lady,Crowned, on the Sacred Mount ofVarese (a city 30 Km north of Milan). The people didn’t want to know any-thing about this monument, but thevisit of Pope John Paul II, in 1984,was instrumental in silencing this op-position.The monument, known by the oddityof having a sheep with five legs, wasinaugurated on May 24, 1986, in thepresence of the Mason Mr. GiulioAndreotti, the Mason Secretary ofState Card. Agostino Casaroli andMason Msgr. Pasquale Macchi, per-sonal Secretary of Paul VI, whosename appears in the “List of Pecorel-li” in conjunction with that one ofCard. Casaroli.In November, 2000, I published thebook: “A Masonic Monument toPaul VI”, where I showed that, in thissculpture, Freemasonry had praisedhis “man” Paul VI as the “Supreme

The book “The ‘New Church’ of Paul VI,” the third book of Father Villa on Paul VI, highlights the main points of the changing Church which continues to completely dismantle

all of Tradition - with an almost murderous obsession! - so that it can no longer recover.

Head” of Freemasonry, and as a“Jewish Pope,” and glorified him forhis “three acts of Masonic jus-tice,”,that is: the betrayal of Christ,of the Church and of the History ofChristian nations.The book of Father Villa, “Paul VIbeatified?” was released twelve yearsafter the inauguration of this monu-ment, and ends with this sentence: “APaul VI, that is, who betrayedChrist, the Church and History.”Freemasonry had “carved” these“betrayals” in this dismal bronzemonument, Father Villa, instead, had“carved” them in a theological-his-torical treatise of 284 pages.

But the discourse on Paul VI was notconcluded yet. So, on January 31,2003, the 380 page third book of Fa-ther Villa: “The ‘New Church’ ofPaul VI” was published, and as al-

ways sent to the top of the Church andto part of the Italian clergy. The book was devastating and the re-action was … a deadly silence! Thetypical “silence” that seals the policyof “putting everything to rest!”But not all were silent.One day, Father Villa told me: «Lastnight I received an anonymousphone call. A voice said to me:“When you are dead, we will putPaul VI on the Altars”.» We laughedover it, wondering if this was a mani-festation of power, or just the oppo-site.

The Satanic Temple dedicated to Padre Pio

In October, 1998, Father Villa gaveme a page from the magazine “Lu-oghi dell’infinito” [“Places of Infin-ity”] of September, 1998. It reportedon a design of the cross, which sculp-tor, Arnaldo Pomodoro, wanted toconstruct for the “new church” ofRenzo Piano, in San Giovanni Roton-do, and dedicated to Padre Pio. This article was given to Father Villaby a friend who, among other things,pointed out some weird symbols thatappeared on the arms of the cross thatlooked like hammers and trowels. Iimmediately began to investigate thestrange cross.After about a month, I gave a reportto Father Villa: «The 11°, 22° and 33°degrees of Freemasonry of the An-cient and Accepted Scottish Rite arerepresented on the lower and sidearms of this cross. The Masonic apronis symbolized in the central part of thecross and, on the upper arm, Luciferis represented in different ways.»Then I added: «The significance ofthese symbols is: the Cult of thePhallus, the Cult of Man and theCult of Lucifer. This symbolizes theAncient and Accepted Scottish Rite

The project management of this “newchurch” was in the hands of the fa-mous architect, Renzo Piano. How-ever the responsibility of the projectwas in the hands of the PontificalCommission for Cultural Heritageof the Church, whose chairman wasMsgr. Francesco Marchisano.At the same time, Msgr. CrispinoValenziano, subordinate of Msgr.Marchisano was in charge of the litur-gical and theological responsibility ofthe “new church.” He is the one whogave instructions so that “the projectwould gradually gain more expres-siveness.” Msgr. Marchisano was anold acquaintance of Father Villa. Infact, he had already denounced him asa Mason on N° 109 of “Chiesa viva”

in June 1981, with all Masonic regis-tration data. His career, however, hadcontinued unabated until his appoint-ment to Vicar General for the Stateof Vatican City and President of SanPietro Works, conferred to him byPope John Paul II. In September, 2002, Father Villareplied to these two new promotionswith the dossier: “An AppointmentScandal,” which also reported threeletters of Msgr. Marchisano to theVenerable Grand Master of ItalianFreemasonry, where, in one of these,he wrote: «Venerable and IllustriousGrand Master, with great joy I re-ceived, through F.

With great joy I received, throughF. MAPA, your delicate task: to qui-etly organize throughout the Pied-mont and Lombardy, a plan to de-stroy the studies and discipline inthe seminaries.

I don’t deny that the task is hugeand I need many collaborators, espe-cially among the teaching staff. Youshould notify me so I can approachthem as soon as possible with somestudy tactics.

I reserve more accurate communi-cations after a meeting and personalinterview with MAPA.

Illustrious and Reverend G. Master,After having approached and con-

tacted F.F. [Fellow Freemasons] Pelmoand Bifra several times, I returned toMAPA to submit an initial work plan.

He recommends starting with thedisintegration of the curriculum, press-ing upon our faithful teachers, becausewith a new updating of topics of pseu-do-philosophy and pseudo-theology,they will cast the seed at the students,now thirsty for anything new.

Thus, the disciplinary disruption willbe a simple consequence that will resultspontaneously, without us having todeal with it: the students will think theydid it themselves.

It is therefore essential that you paythese teachers well, of whom you al-ready have the list. I will be a diligentoverseer and I will refer everything toyou, faithfully.

With the most devoted and friendlygreeting

Illustrious and Reverend G. Mas-ter,

In the meeting, last night, F.F.[Fellow Freemasons] Pelmo, Mapa,Bifra, Salma, Buan, Algo and Vinowere present, I could conclude that:

- First, we should start experi-ments at some seminaries of Italy,those of Trent and Turin, or thatone of Udine where we have a goodnumber of F.F.[Fellow Freemasons];

- Secondly, we must spread ourconcept of freedom and human dig-nity, in all the seminaries withoutany hesitation from either of the Su-periors, nor by any law. We need acomprehensive printing.

At this point, we need a meetingwith all of you to decide how to actand to whom to entrust the varioustasks.

With my prayerful greeting

mont and Lombardy, a plan to dis-rupt the studies and the disciplineof seminaries ... »The dossier was distributed by thethousands and certain personalities ofthe Vatican came to Brescia to buysome packs of these pamplets fromFather Villa; while others, fromRome, confided to him their discom-fort and their despair. But it seemedthat no one could stop the irresistiblerise of this Masonic Prelate.The only thing missing was his ap-pointment as “Cardinal.” Howeverhis name did not appear in the list ofeligible candidates of the Consistory,scheduled for October 21, 2003. Wethought the reason was the publica-tion and widespread distribution ofour dossier “An Appointment Scan-dal,” which conclusively proved, theMasonic membership of Msgr.Marchisano.But three days before the Pope was toannounce the names of eligible candi-dates of the Consistory (September28th, 2003), I was in Father Villa’s of-fice when the phone rang. Father an-swered the phone, he listened, thenput it down and said: «Do you knowwhat I have just been informed of?Msgr. Marchisano will be in the listof Cardinals!»Three days later, on TV, everyone sawJohn Paul II reading the list ofnames of the future Cardinals, when,suddenly, the hand of his personalsecretary came up, holding a piece ofpaper, which he laid on the lectern.The Pope’s apparent irritation pro-duced no results. After a while, heread the name: Msgr. FrancescoMarchisano.

On July 1, 2004, the “new church”dedicated to St. Padre Pio in San Gio-vanni Rotondo, was inaugurated.On February 20, 2006, the SpecialEdition of “Chiesa viva” 381, enti-tled: “A ‘new church’ dedicated toSt. Padre Pio - Masonic Temple?”

was released. This showed the natureof Masonic symbols that were im-printed everywhere in this “church”and the “unitarian idea” that is theglorification of Freemasonry and its“god” Lucifer with horrible insultsto Our Lord Jesus Christ and theMost Holy Trinity.The Masonic symbolism of the Taber-nacle expresses the substitution of“Jesus the Redeemer” with “Lu-ciferian redeemer” of man, while thesymbolism on the stone cross express-es the replacement of “Christ theKing of the Universe” with “Lucifer,king of the universe.” But the worstinsult is addressed to the Most HolyTrinity for having been driven out andreplaced with the blasphemous, sa-tanic and Masonic “Triple Trinity.”For the first time in history, a geomet-ric representation of the Masonic“Triple Trinity,” was published. Thisis the deepest and most jealously keptsecret of Freemasonry!

When Father Villa read the study, hetold me that, certainly, the Pope couldnot ignore it, because the satanic oc-cult meanings of this temple were sosevere and disturbing. His silence onsuch a complaint would have beenjust inconceivable.But nothing happened!

After two months, however, some-thing finally happened. One Hundredand fifty Prelates including formerSecretary of State, Card. Angelo So-dano, went to San Giovanni Rotondo,on the 50th anniversary of the found-ing of the Padre Pio’s Casa di Sollie-vo della Sofferenza (House for theRelief of Suffering), and remainedthere for an entire week (May 1-7,2006). As it was reported earlier, by one ofthem: «Those Prelates, for the entireweek, and I know because I also at-tended the evening and night meet-ings, have studied your Special Edi-

The Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No 381, the Satanic Temple of San Giovanni Rotondo, dedicated to St. Padre Pio, was released February 20, 2006.

The meaning of occult symbols etched everywhere in this “new church” is the glorification ofFreemasonry and its “god” Lucifer, with horrible insults to Our Lord Jesus Christ and the MostHoly Trinity. The Masonic symbolism of the Tabernacle expresses the substitution of “Jesus theRedeemer” with “Lucifer redeemer of man”, while that on the stone cross expresses the re-placement of “Christ the King” with Lucifer, “king of the universe”. But the worst insult is ad-dressed to the Most Holy Trinity for having been driven out and replaced with the blasphemousand satanic Masonic “Triple Trinity”.

tion on the Satanic Temple dedicat-ed to Padre Pio.»Amazed, I replied: «And with whatresult?» «They could not refute it.»«And the conclusion?» I pressed.He answered: «They decided to si-lence everything about it.»

The news, however, was so explosivethat some Italian newspapers andmagazines published the news of thescandal, but it was missed by all thenational press, radio and televisions.The fact didn’t bother us that much,because we were used to this policy of“silencing everything about it all,”but mainly because Our Lord JesusChrist and the Most Holy Trinity hadbeen horribly insulted, no one couldever pretend to gag these ThreeAlmighty Persons directly involvedin this issue.The Italian Edition of the study onthe Satanic Temple was followed bythe German, English, French, Span-ish and Polish Editions. Slowly, thehorror of this Satanic Temple wasspreading in Italy and abroad, and theflow of pilgrims, who had nevershown appreciation for this strange“new building”, continuously dwin-dled, with the fearful consequence ofthe decreasing flow of donations.

The impossibility of being able to re-fute the study, whose contents weremost disturbing and the growing at-tention from the national and interna-tional audience, which grew by theday, imposed a “response,” but with-out entering into the merits of the ar-guments raised and proven by ourSpecial Edition.

So far, the obligatory policy of the“Powers that be” had been limited tothe strategy: “let’s silence everythingabout it” ... but the meaning of thesewords, in addition to the blackout ofthe media, one could assume it tomean something else instead.

Another… assassination attempt

Several months after the publicationof the study on the Satanic Temple ofPadre Pio, I had to accompany FatherVilla to visit a priest “friend,” butdue to an unforeseen difficulty, Icould not do so, and was replaced byone of our elderly collaborators.

The meeting with the priest was brief.However, it was marked with a per-plexing situation for those who werepresent as the incomprehensible agita-tion, tension, and strange behavior ofthe priest “friend,” was so over-whelming that, after he had servedbiscuits, chocolates and tea, consid-ered “unpleasant” by the only personwho drank it, the two guests left.

46

Father Villa didn’t eat or drink any-thing, while the only one to do so wasthe elderly driver.Getting into the car, Father Luigi im-mediately, asked the driver to takehim to his lawyer friend who livednearby. A few minutes later, theyfound themselves sitting in his diningroom.While Father Villa was talking to thelawyer, the driver began to feelstrange. His vision was as if he waslooking through a shattered andmoving glass. Gradually, he was nolonger able to move his legs, feet,arms and hands. He breathed deeply,trying to overcome these sensations,but at certain point, they had to liehim down on the sofa, as theywatched him anxiously. The drivernever lost consciousness, but hisstrange visual anomalies continuedalong with paralyzation of the up-per and lower limbs. After about fif-teen minutes, he felt better, got up andsaid that he was ready to drive. What would have happened if the twohad not visited the lawyer friend rightaway?They had to travel several miles on anarrow road, flanked by large trees onboth sides, beyond which were on theone hand, a river, on the other, a moatof water. In addition, the road was al-ways busy with traffic of heavy vehi-cles.And what would have happened if thedriver found himself driving the vehi-cle on that road, instead of sittingcomfortably on a chair, in a room?If two persons, who have a total ofmore than one hundred sixty years be-tween them, had an accident, thenewspapers would have most certain-ly taken note that some accidents oc-cur to people much younger. Then,who would suspect anyone if it be-came known that the two “injured”had just come out from a home of afamily that had known the old priestfor several decades?

Benedict XVI to the Satanic Templeof San Giovanni Rotondo

The heavy pall of the Satanic Templeof San Giovanni Rotondo became,day by day, more and more embar-rassing. Unfortunately, as it has hap-pened in the past, when trying to “si-lence everything,” the only over-abused solution is that one of usingthe full weight of Authority.

On March 18, 2007, the Secretary ofState, Card. Tarcisio Bertone, with alarge following of Bishops, went toSan Giovanni Rotondo for a celebra-tion in the Satanic Temple.In the issues of “Chiesa viva” N° 395and N° 396 of June and July-August2007, it was reported in an article en-titled “Sacrilegious Concelebration

Cardinal Camillo Ruini.

47

Cardinal Ruini a Freemason?

In early February 1992, Msgr. PietroPinius stated: «Ruini is a Freemason, thisis the evidence.» The “evidence” is theverbal exams, passed by the Vicar of thePope to become “Secret Master of theFourth Degree.”«On the first page of the report, the in-scription reads “Grand Orient of Italy,”dominated and flanked by three complexsymbols: a Jewish star surrounded by acrown resting on four heads (one that is ahead of a goat). The phrase: “Lodge of theSecret Master of Perfection,” is writtenfurther down, and alongside, the name ofCamillo Ruini, in a signature scrawled inhaste and repeated on every page.» Msgr. Pintus claims to have received theminutes from a serious “penitent” and stat-ed, «I immediately sent the original doc-uments out of Italy, to secure ... » Then,he said he had received two phone calls:one from Card. Ratzinger, Prefect of theCongregation for the Doctrine of the Faith;the other, from the Pope.The secretaries of the Cardinal and thePope denied it, the spokesman for Card.Ruini, Msgr. Virgilio Levi, called the doc-ument «clearly, and completely false,ridiculous and undignified.» FatherRosario Esposito said: «Bishop Pinto is aboy always in search of fame,» and «Theaccusations about Ruini are just silly ... »

We make some observations.

1. P. Rosario Esposito, before becomingan honorary member of Freemasonry, said:«I am a Freemason to the bottom of myheart and soul ... »

2. Msgr. Virgilio Levi is in the “List ofPecorelli” with the data: 04/07/1958,241/3; LEVI.

3. After the death of Paul VI, CardinalRatzinger received a letter from FatherVilla in which he proved that Card. Se-bastiano Baggio (“List of Pecorelli,” data:08.14.1957, 85/2640; SEBA), appointed asChamberlain by John Paul II, wrote to theGrand Master of Italian Freemasonry, re-assuring him that the secret documentsof Paul VI would be delivered to him byMsgr. Pasquale Macchi (Personal Secre-tary of Paul VI and present in the “List ofPecorelli,” with the data: 04.23.1958,5463/2; MAPA), and begging him tokeep his promise to have him electedPope. Cardinal Ratzinger didn’t even ac-knowledge receipt.

4. To the Prelate, who had shown the evi-dence, published by “Chiesa viva,” ofCard. Casaroli belonging to Freemason-ry, John Paul II said: «I know, I know,but I do not know who to put in hisplace!» To Cardinal Palazzini, who pre-sented his concerns about the Masonic in-filtration of the Church, Pope John PaulII, after beating his fist on the table, ex-claimed: «It is I, who want it.»

in the Masonic Temple in San Gio-vanni Rotondo, dedicated to St.Padre Pio,” that Father Villa asked toprohibit the religious use of this “Sa-tanic Temple,” displaying the coversof this study, already available in fivelanguages.But the sacrilegious celebrations con-tinued. Again, “Chiesa viva” in themonths of November and December,2007, denounced these sacrilegiouscelebrations, with words of fire thatended with the phrase: «“Chiesa vi-va”, therefore, asks the Catholic Hi-erarchy: How long will you allowMasonry to insult Our Lord JesusChrist and the Most Holy Trinity?» But the ecclesiastical Authorities, un-deterred, kept silent and continued thesacrilegious celebrations.Then, “Chiesa viva” published lettersreceived about these scandalous actsof the ecclesiastical authorities, in re-spect to this Satanic Temple. Fol-lowed by an article in the July-August2008 issue, with the headline: “A Sa-tanic Temple for Padre Pio?” thatbegan the publication of a number ofarticles from newspapers, weekly,

magazines, periodicals both Italianand other languages, letters, commu-nications and events that exposed thescandal of this “Satanic Temple”crying out to God for vengeance.

But the usual and overused solutionmade a step upwards. They begantalking about a visit by Benedict XVIto San Giovanni Rotondo. An offi-cial statement of Msgr. D’Ambrosio,Archbishop of Manfredonia-Vieste-San Giovanni Rotondo, and also Di-rector of the Holy See for theShrine and the Works of Padre Pio,was made on December 8, 2008. Heread the statement of the Prefect ofPapal Household, Msgr. James M.Harvey, who gave notice of the deci-sion for the visit of Benedict XVI toSan Giovanni Rotondo, on June 21,2009, with a program attached of thevisit.Again, ignoring the proven facts, anddespite the failure of 150 Prelates torefute the conclusions of the studyon the Satanic Temple, now, theywanted to bring forth all the weight ofthe Authority of the Pope!

The Secretary of State Card. Tarcisio Bertone, concelebrates a sacrilegious Mass,in the Satanic Temple of San Giovanni Rotondo, dedicated to St. Padre Pio.

49

But the campaign of “Chiesa viva,”reporting the documents on the Satan-ic Temple of San Giovanni Rotondo,proceeded for months and months,until April of the following year.

The 21st of June arrived, the day ofthe visit of Benedict XVI. The Popehad to go to San Giovanni Rotondoby helicopter, but a violent storm inRome prevented this, and so the Popewas transported via military aircraft,to the military airport of Foggia. He,then, continued by car to his final des-tination.The Mass celebrated in the square ofthe Satanic Temple did not seem tohave divine approval. In fact, at theend of the celebration, a pandemoni-um was unleashed. Torrential rains

came and were followed by an on-slaught of hail as big as walnuts. In aninstant, all the faithful fled and disap-peared. Was it a fluke that the televi-sion interrupted the filming of thisevent due to “technical failures?”Some people said that this was a“punishment from God.” Althoughthis can never be proven with certain-ty, what one can be certain of is thatGod could have prevented this hu-miliation to the Vicar of Christ, butHe didn’t! Then, there was the unfortunateepisode of the surreptitious “blessing”of the mosaic inscription in the cryptof the Satanic Temple, not scheduledin the ceremony and not even men-tioned in the program. On the mosaictombstone inscription reads:

50

«On the occasion of the pastoralvisit, His Holiness Benedict XVI,in this church embellished by thedevotion of the faithful and withthe beauty of art enshrining thebody of St. Pio of Pietrelcina,paused in prayer and blessed it.»

Aside from the lies that were alwaystold reassuring people that the body ofSt. Pio of Pietrelcina would never bemoved to the Satanic Temple, what isdisturbing is the nature of improvisa-tion that was given to this “blessing.”While the Holy Father was headingtoward the exit of the crypt, his atten-tion was focused on the mosaic in-scription, which the Pope read with

some surprise. Then, as he began toproceed, Msgr. D’Ambrosio put hisarm around the Pope and then withhis other arm, stopped him, showinghim the sprinkler that a Capuchin fri-ar was offering to the Pope.So, the mosaic inscription was quick-ly blessed and without even a prayer.This act was not planned and, aboveall, the inscription, instead of refer-ring to the blessing of the mosaics,refers to the entire church.Was it really a “trap” set for theHoly Father?

The cover of Chiesa viva’s July-Au-gust 2009 issue displayed the figureof the Pope with the Satanic Templein the background. It bore the title:“Benedict XVI in the ‘Satanic Tem-

51

ple’ in San Giovanni Rotondo -Why?”In the text, among other things, hewrote: «Now, the Vicar of JesusChrist, should be the Good Shepherd,and not a cause of distress for the mil-lions of devotees of the Saintly Friarof San Giovanni Rotondo (...) Heshould have also known that thisTemple is, in fact, a Masonic-stylebuilding (...) And he should haveknown also that (...) as Padre Pio,was a bitter opponent of Freema-sonry, this Temple, therefore, is aposthumous revenge.»And also: «In all these years, afterthe construction of this Satanic-Ma-sonic Temple, never did the Vaticanshow a clear and official position.This includes the complete and totalsilence of the Cardinals in charge ofthe design and construction of this

“New Church.” Therefore, this sayingshould apply: “Silence is consent”.»And again: «We of “Chiesa viva”ask: “How was it possible that theVatican has been able to build a“Satanic Temple” - mocking mil-lions and millions of Catholicsaround the world who gave stacksof money in good faith?»

Father Villa ... prized?

Although it seems almost impossibleto believe, Father Villa received,during these turbulent years, two ma-jor awards for his work as a jour-nalist and writer, but above all, forhis commitment to defend theCatholic religion and Christian civ-ilization.

52

In December, 2008, Father Villa re-ceived his first award which was the“International Inars CiociariaJournalist Award,” sponsored by thePresidency Council of Ministers,Ministry of Cultural Heritage, the Na-tional Order of Journalists, Council ofthe Region of Lazio, Province ofFrosinone, URSE (Union od Histori-cal Regions of Europe), on thegrounds: «... for his very extensivework as a journalist, author ofbooks and pamphlets on theology,asceticism, non-fiction ... and for hiscommitment to defend the Christ-ian roots of Europe and for his pro-tection of truth against forces aliento our civilization.»

In October, 2009, he was awarded thesecond which was the “CulturalPrize of Val Vibrata di Teramo” forbeing «a journalist, an outstandingwriter, an incorruptible editor,Head Publisher and Editor of“Chiesa viva”,» but also «for beingan eminent theologian devoting his‘entire life to defend the Catholicreligion and disseminating the his-torical truth and living according tothe Gospel!»

What a contrast with the “awards”handed out to Father Luigi Villa in thelast fifty years from certain membersof the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy!

53

Benedict XVI in Brescia

The new Bishop of Brescia, Msgr.Luciano Monari, was officially in-stalled in the diocese on Oct. 14, 2007.The brief biography of the official pre-sentation of the new Bishop reportedthat his mother bore the name ofGiuliana Ruini. There were those whoconfirmed and who denied the fact ofkinship with the Cardinal CamilloRuini, but someone from Rome as-sured Father Villa that Msgr. Monariwas a man of Card. Ruini and agreat enthusiast of Paul VI.

What seemed strange to some was thefact that only after a few weeks oftaking office in Brescia, on November11, 2007, Msgr. Monari went to cel-

ebrate Mass in the new church ofPadergnone, the first church of thediocese of the Third Millennium, re-cently consecrated by the previousBishop, Msgr. Sanguineti. Given theimmense problems of a diocese likethat of Brescia and the fact that thepopulation of the village where thenew church is located is only aroundone thousand people, there is really areason to wonder: Why this visit?

After the announcement of the Pope’svisit to the Satanic Temple of SanGiovanni Rotondo, Apr. 9, 2009, therewas another announcement: BenedictXVI was coming to Brescia, Novem-ber 8, 2009, “in the name of his pre-decessor,” “on the thirtieth anniver-sary of the death of Paul VI” and“in the footsteps of Paul VI.” Theannouncement was given by Msgr.Luciano Monari who said that «Thereason, of course, is the thirtieth an-niversary of the death of Paul VI.»And stressing that «Pope Ratzinger,as you know, was elevated to cardi-nal by Pope Paul VI and he has al-ways had gratitude and great lovefor the Pope from Brescia.» Thespeech, that followed, was focused onthe need for everyone to be in “com-munion” with the Bishop of Rome,Pope Benedict XVI.

And who was not in “communion”with the Bishop of Rome, but notabout issues surrounding CatholicDoctrine as always, but, instead, forexample, whether or not to beatify the“Servant of God” Paul VI? Wouldthe invitation contained in the Edict ofMay 13 1992 of Card. Ruini: «Weinvite all individual believers tocommunicate directly or submit tothe diocesan tribunal of the Vicari-ate of Rome any “information”from which we can, to some extent,argue against the reputation ofsanctity of the saying “Servant ofGod” (Montini )» still be valid?

And what about him, who had seri-ously “obeyed” this “invitation,”though not as a simple “individual be-liever,” but as a serious and affirmedtheologian who had received fromPadre Pio the mission to dedicate hislife to defend the Church of Christfrom the work of Ecclesiastic Freema-sonry, and he, who, since 1963, alsohad been informed by the Saint Fri-ar that Paul VI was a Mason, andhe, who with a mandate of Pope PiusXII to carried out this delicate task?What fate, will be reserved for him?After the announcement of the Pope’svisit to Brescia, made by Msgr.Monari, Father Villa told me, and re-peated several times, more and moreconcerned: «We are at a turningpoint … They want to silence me …forever.»

The Masonic-Satanic Temple of the Padergnone(Brescia)

Only later, was I able to understandthe true meaning of those words. Be-cause, at Father Villa’s request tomake an inspection of the “newchurch” in Padergnone, (the firstchurch of the third millennium of ourdiocese), I answered evasively, andwithout conviction and commitments.It was only after the visit of BenedictXVI to San Giovanni Rotondo that Ibegan to understand the gravity of thewords of Father Villa. The Pope hadgone to San Giovanni Rotondo, hehad celebrated in the square of the“Satanic Temple” and, even if it wasa “trap” set by some Prelates who ac-companied him, he had “blessed”that “Satanic Temple!”Why this visit? Why this “blessing”?Why bring all the weight of the high-est authorities of the Church whenthey had not succeeded in refuting thehorrible reality proven at that “Satan-

ic Temple?” Yes, definitely, we wereat a turning point!In late June, I began the first visit tothe “new church” of Padergnone,which was followed by other visits fordetailed studies, to take photographsand measurements.The “new church” was dedicated tothe “Risen Christ.”However, the Catholic religion isbased on the Cross, namely, on thewill of Jesus Christ to obey the Fatherand to suffer and die on the Cross soas to offer us the Redemption. HisResurrection, however, was not theresult of an act of His will, but an actdue to His Divine Nature!Why, then, are those who do not be-lieve in the Divinity of Christ so en-thusiastic about the figure of the“Risen Christ?”For the answer, one need only recall

One of the photographs used for theposters to announce the visit of

Benedict XVI to Brescia.

55

the words of one of the most bitter en-emies of God and the CatholicChurch, Alice Bailey, the priestess ofthe “New Age” and the founder, in1921, of the satanic “Lucifer Trust”(The Court of Lucifer), which hadoutlined the plan, the creation of aNew Universal Religion with thesewords: «The “Risen Christ” and notthe “Crucified Christ” is the dis-tinctive note of the New Religion.»Here is the secret of the dedication ofthe “new churches” to the “RisenChrist!”But what do they really mean by theterm “Risen Christ?”Jesus Christ is the “Master”, but, forthem, the “Master” Mason becomesso at the 15th degree of Freemasonryof the Ancient and Accepted ScottishRite, “rising” from the condition of“man in whom the ultimate realityof being a man is clearly revealed,which, in himself, is simultaneouslyGod”. That is the Mason from its pre-

vious state “rises” and becomes“Master” or “God-Man,” freeinghimself from any Divine Authority,because he has become God!So, it is not the God who becameman, who died on the cross and has“resurrected” because He is God,but instead it is the man who mani-fests himself as God in “JesusChrist,” which for them is only thesymbol of the “Master” Mason!Thus, with the term “Risen Christ”they do not celebrate the Divinity ofChrist, but the Masonic self-deifica-tion of man, namely the “Cult ofMan” as a necessary step to proceedto the “Cult of Lucifer!”But this is also the “Christology” ofthe “New Theology” of many of ourPrelates. As the great Dominican Fa-ther Garrigou-Lagrange had summedup [on describing the “New Theolo-gy”], in 1946: «Thus, the materialworld would have evolved towardsthe spirit, and the spirit world

would evolve, naturally, so to speak,toward the supernatural order andtoward the fullness of Christ. Thus,the Incarnation of the Word, theMystical Body, the universal Christ,would be merely a moment in uni-versal Evolution ... This is what re-mains of Christian dogmas, in thistheory, which distances itself fromOur Creed in proportion to its ap-proach to Hegelian evolutionism.»And the great Dominican, thenshouts: «Where does the “new theol-ogy” end? It is a return to Mod-ernism through the roads of fanta-sy, error, and heresy.»

The one responsible for the project ofthe “new church” was Msgr. IvoPanteghini belonging to the Curia ofBrescia, for a few years, a “Consul-tant” at the Pontifical Commissionfor Cultural Heritage of theChurch,” whose President was theMason Msgr. Francesco Marchisano,already responsible for the construc-tion of the Satanic Temple dedicatedto St. Padre Pio. The Curia of Bres-cia approved the project, as did theOffice of Divine Worship of the Ital-ian Episcopal Conference (CEI), whoin part, financed the project. BishopGiulio Sanguineti, personally ac-cused of being a mason by Fr. Villa,and unable to fight back, consecratedthe “new church” a few weeks be-fore being replaced. The new bishop,Msgr. Monari, newly installed, didn’twait long before going to the “newchurch” to celebrate Mass. On thememorial cornerstone of consecrationof the “new church”, there is an epis-copal medal of Msgr. Sanguineti andtwo pontifical medals of John PaulII and Benedict XVI.The study of the “new church” pro-ceeded to identify the “Masonic uni-tarian idea” of the project: the dedi-cation of the church was not to the“Risen Christ,” but “Knight of theRose-Cross,” [i.e. the Knight of the

Rosicrucians] of the 18th degree ofA.A.S.R. Freemasonry whose task isto obliterate the Sacrifice of JesusChrist on the Cross from the face ofthe earth, that is, in other words, toobliterate the Sacrifice of Christ inthe Catholic Mass from the face ofthe earth. The degree of the Rosicrucians, infact, in essence, is the renewal of thebloody killing of God committedand figured for the first time atCalvary, while the Mass is the re-newal of the real and bloodless sac-rifice of Christ.Every part of the “new church” isfull of Masonic and satanic symbol-ism: the fountain outside, the structurewith three spirals, the bronze door, theceiling of the liturgical room, thechapel of the Baptistery, the benches,the statue of the “Risen Christ,” thewindows, the altar, the tabernacle, thetemplar cross, the Virgin of Hope, thecrypt, the flaming cross, the greenarea surrounding the church ... theyall exalt the God Pan, the Kabbalis-tic god Lucifer, the “Man-God” ofFreemasonry, but the center of thewhole work is the altar and the fig-ure of the Knight of the Rosicru-cians above it. This is the deepest se-cret of this “new church,” this is the“central idea.”It is the Knight of the Rosicrucianswho makes “justice” against theGod who became man and re-deemed humanity, against the Godwho has dethroned Lucifer from hisalmost absolute power he had overman, against the God hated byFreemasonry; it is the Knight of theRosicrucians who, at the altar, doesnot renew the Sacrifice of Christ onthe Cross, but reiterates the killingof God!

Some time ago, the author of a bookon the Antichrist, called me asking meto send him twenty copies of thestudy on the “Satanic Temple” of San

57

The Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No. 420 on the Masonic-Satanic Temple of the Padergnone,located in a hamlet of Rodengo Saiano, in the diocese of Brescia.

The central idea of the hidden symbolism of this “new church,”dedicated to the “Risen Christ,” is the figure of the Knight of the Rosicrucians,

the 18th degree A.A.S.R. of Freemasonry, which has the task to obliterate the Sacrifice of Christ on the Cross from the face of the earth.

On this “altar of Lucifer,” therefore, the Knight of the Rosicrucians, in his role as “Sacrificerto Lucifer” does not renew the Sacrifice of Christ on the Cross, but he renews the Deicide!

Giovanni Rotondo, because he washolding a conference. During the call,he made me aware of something thathad happened recently. Along with agroup of people, he had gone to visitan exorcist. The author informed thepriest of his book on the Antichrist.The priest then told him of a strangeexorcism that happened to him. Hewas exorcising a person possessed byLucifer, when, suddenly, he heard himyelling: «I have made my throne, inGargano» (Gargano is the provincewhere the town of San Giovanni Ro-tondo is located).The Exorcist, was astonished, unableto understand the meaning of thosewords. Then he recalled: «The nextmorning, by mail, I received a copy of“Chiesa viva” on the Satanic Templeof San Giovanni Rotondo, and readthe study. Then I finally understoodthe words Lucifer said that previousday.»Now if Lucifer, shouted: «I havemade my throne, in Gargano» be-

cause of the “Satanic Temple” dedi-cated to St. Padre Pio, should we besurprised if, one day, another exorcistwill tell us that he heard Luciferscreaming: «I have made my Altarin Brescia?»

In mid-October 2009, the Special Edi-tion of “Chiesa viva” No. 420,wasreleased under the title: “Brescia: thenew parish church of Padergnone isa Satanic-Masonic Temple!” Thedistribution in Brescia, in the provinceand all over Italy was of enormousmagnitude. After a week, on October 21, I re-ceived a superficially ironic letterfrom Msgr. Ivo Panteghini.I responded to him on Oct. 28, to thequestions he posed to me, but also re-ferred to that central issue of theKnight of the Rosicrucian which hedidn’t make any reference to.At the end of dealing with that theme,I pointed out that Paul VI drew up adefinition of the Mass that no more

59

involved the Sacrifice of Christ onthe Cross and the Real Presence.Then I wrote: «So, Paul VI can just-ly claim the title of being the Great-est Rosicrucian Knight who everlived.» And then in conclusion:«Therefore, no Rosicrucian Knightin the world could ever aspire toearn the “glory” as Paul VI didwith the dedication of the SatanicTemple of Padergnone.»

On November 6, 2009, when askedwhether the presence of Pope Bene-dict XVI could be of some benefit tothe “cause of beatification” of PaulVI, Msgr. Molinari said: «I hope so,not so much for the beatification assuch, but because they are con-vinced that there is a treasure troveof original spirituality in the life ofPaul VI and that the diffusion ofthis treasure will help enrich theChurch today.»

On November 8, 2009, on the thirtiethanniversary of the death of Paul VI,as light rain fell, Benedict XVI land-ed at the airport of Ghedi (near Bres-cia). He went to the town of “Bottici-no Sera” for a tribute to Saint Tadini,then, Mass in the Cathedral, in Bres-cia, and the Angelus.In the afternoon, the Pope greeted theorganizers of the visit at the Paul VIPastoral Center, and then went to thebirthplace of Pope Paul VI to inaugu-rate the new headquarters of the Insti-tute of Paul VI in Concesio. He gavethe sixth International award, dedicat-ed to the Pope from Brescia. He madea quick visit to the Parish of St. An-thony, where Giovanni Battista Mon-tini was baptized then departed forCiampino (Rome) from the airport ofGhedi. Throughout this visit, in Brescia,Benedict XVI, did not even hintabout the “cause of beatification” ofPaul VI.From the day of publication of the

Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No.420 of October 2009 on the “newchurch” of Padergnone, in Brescia, inthe “circles” responsible for the erec-tion of this Satanic Temple, there fella gloomy sepulchral silence, with theexception of an unsuccessful attemptby Msgr. Luciano Monari to gratu-itously smear Father Luigi Villa’sname, with a “Note of the Bishop,”published in the weekly of the Dio-cese of Brescia, “The Voice of thePeople” No 35.Was this an attempt to find a way outof the embarrassing situation, whichhas arisen in our diocese, without con-sidering the merits of the argumentsshown by our study on the “Masonic-Satanic Temple of Padergnone?”And what will this black atmosphereof oppression, which is becomingevery day more and more heavy, pro-duce, in the near future?

The “cause of beatification” of John Paul II

In November, 2009, just days after hisreturn to Rome, after the visit made inBrescia, Benedict XVI announcedthe continuation of the “cause of be-atification” of John Paul II.In early February, 2010, Father Villadecided to combine the twenty arti-cles on John Paul II, already pub-lished in “Chiesa viva” over the pastyears, into a single PDF file and sendit to thousands via e-mails that includ-ed: Holy See, Cardinals, EpiscopalConferences, Religious Institutes,Diplomatic Corp accredited to theHoly See, Catholic universities andtraining institutes, Bishops, Dioceses,Embassies, Consulates, Senators,Deputies, Regional Councils, the me-dia, universities, libraries, book-sellers, laity, etc. Later, the Italian press began report-ing the news about some difficulties

60

that had emerged for the “cause ofbeatification” of John Paul II, and,then for several months, fell silent onthis topic. But Father Villa had already been ac-tivated to produce a Special Editionof “Chiesa viva” on John Paul II.This was to be a complete work, ac-cessible to the general public, show-ing all dark sides of this disturbing“traveling” Pope, who spent much ofhis Pontificate chasing the mirage ofuniting all religions into a One WorldReligion.

But the objective of One World Reli-gion is the supreme end to whichthe heads of Freemasonry world-wide are trying to realize, for theirdream of global world domination.But in order to accomplish this, theymust eliminate Jesus Christ as theonly Saviour and Redeemer ofmankind, they must ignore and tram-ple on the Truth, they have to reinter-pret the Primacy of Peter, they mustcorrupt Catholic virtue, they must dis-tort Catholic Morality, they must forma new Catholic Authority to be put inthe service of and submit to the pow-er of the Antichrist.

But Lucifer has lost his absolute pow-er he had over humanity with the Sac-rifice of Christ on the Cross, that hehimself caused with the Deicide.His infernal rage then is completelydirected and focused on this Act ofRedemption of Jesus and his“bloodless renewal” in the HolySacrifice of the Catholic Mass!There is, however, a radical solutionto solve this problem: to deny the Di-vinity of Jesus Christ. This horribleblasphemy eliminates the Sacrifice ofChrist on the Cross at its root andopens the door to all the “news” andany “updates” that are essential to“eclipse” the Church of Christ andcreate a “New Church” which be-comes the “Whore of Babylon!”

Then, the Sacrifice offered by JesusChrist on the Cross to the Father,through the priestly ministry, whichoffers redemption and salvation ofthe soul, may become the renewal ofthe killing of God through the Ma-sonic priestly ministry offered toanother “god the father:” Lucifer,who, presenting himself as the Fa-ther of the Temple of UniversalPeace among men, offers us his“Gnostic redemption” and, with adiabolical deception, diverts ouraim of the salvation of souls, withthe falsehood of a universal peaceamong men.But this “god the father” is none oth-er than the “god” of Freemasonry andits name is Baphomet, which writtenand then read right to left becomes:TEMpli, Omnium, Hominum, PacisABbas (the Father of the Temple ofUniversal Peace among Men) = BA PH O MET.

But this is exactly the central themeof the Satanic Temple of Padergnoneof the Diocese of Brescia where, afterhaving praised the God Pan and theGnostic doctrine, which is the de-nial of the Divinity of Jesus Christ,the Knight of the Rosicrucian, onthe altar, does not renew the Sacri-fice of Christ on the Cross, but in-stead renews the Deicide!We had also written that «No Knightof the Rosicrucian in the worldcould ever aspire to earn the gloryas Paul VI did with the dedicationof the Satanic Temple of Pader-gnone.»Moreover, the memorial cornerstoneof the consecration of this church bythe Bishop, contains the silver episco-pal medal of Msgr. Giulio Sanguinetiand the silver pontifical medals ofJohn Paul II and Benedict XVI.Why these two pontifical medals?

In September 2010, a Special Editionof “Chiesa viva” N° 430 was re-

61

This is the cover of a collection of 20 articles on John Paul II,published in the Magazine “Chiesa viva,” which was made into a PDF file.

It has reached tens of thousands of people worldwide, with the following priorities:

Holy See, Cardinal, Papal, Episcopal Conferences, the Bishops, Religious Institutes, the Diplomatic Corps accredited to the Holy See, universities, colleges and Institutes

of Catholic education, Diocesan Italian Curia and foreign parishes, priests, deacons, Senators,Deputies, Embassies, Consulates, Regional and Provincial Councils, Municipalities,

Universities, Libraries, radio, television, newspapers, magazines, periodicals, associations and Catholics groups, laity, etc...

leased bearing the title: “Karol Wo-jtyla beatified? ... never!”It is a Special Edition of 96 pageswith 217 photographs that include: ashort biography of Karol Wojtyla, hisinternational travels, his ideas, hisphilosophy, his theology, his relationswith the Freemasonry and Commu-nism, his “facts” and “sayings,” his“Marian doctrine,” his positions onthe Primacy of Peter and his “Theolo-gy of the Body,” with a series of pho-tographs, to say the least, embarrass-ing. The back cover shows a photo-graph, a full-page image, of the Popein flames, taken in his home country,exactly one year after his death.The spread of the PDF file of thisSpecial Edition has reached all thosewho had already received the abovePDF file, containing the 20 articles onJohn Paul II.For four months silence fell on the“cause of beatification” of John Paul II.

On January 6, 2011, the announce-ment read: “John Paul II SaintNow.” The newspapers reported thenews of the beatification of Pope Wo-jtyla in 2011.In the Italian newspaper, il “Gior-nale,” the Vatican journalist Tornielliwrote: «John Paul II will be beatifiedin 2011, perhaps before the summer.In recent weeks, the medical consulta-tion of the Congregation for the Caus-es of Saints presented a favorableview on the miracle attributed to theintercession of Pope Wojtyla – that is- the healing of a French nun fromParkinson’s - and the documentationin recent days has also passed thescrutiny of theologians. Before thefile arrives on Benedict XVI’s desk,now the only thing missing is thegreen light of the Cardinals and Bish-ops who are members of the Congre-gation, who have just received thedossier on the miracle. They will meetto collectively consider and to casttheir vote in mid-January.»

The “Times” says: «Benedict XVIhas called him: “John Paul theGreat.” He is “only the fourth popein history to have had this honor.”The beatification should be done inrecord time, as Pope Benedict XVIhad approved the exemption to imme-diately start the process of canoniza-tion, without waiting the five yearsspecified in the death.»On January 14, 2011, the official an-nouncement of the Vatican: «JohnPaul II will be beatified on May 1st.»

For years, the “winds of suspicion”were spreading the idea that the“mind” of John Paul II, during hisPontificate, was the Prefect of theCongregation for the Doctrine ofthe Faith, [Ratzinger]. In April, 2005, when John Paul IIdied and Pope Benedict XVI waselected, many wondered if CardinalJoseph Ratzinger merely succeededhimself!

The Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No. 430, against the beatification of John Paul II, was released in September, 2010 and reached tens of thousands of people similar

to the distribution made with the previous PDF file of the 20 articles on this Pope.

Besides the Italian and French editions, new editions are being prepared in other languages.This is a complete and accessible work available to the general public, showing all sides of thisdark and disturbing “itinerant” Pope, who spent much of his Pontificate pursuing the mirage ofbringing together all religions into a single World Religion under the direction of Freemasonry,to achieve the World Government of the Antichrist!

The denial of the DIVINITYof Jesus Christremoves the “Sacrifice of Christ on the Cross” at its root, so the “Sacrifice of Christ on the Cross” offered by Jesus to the Father, through the priestly Ministry, which offers us the Redemption and the salvation of the soul ...

... may become the renewal of

DEICIDE, through the priestly Masonic

ministry offered to another “god the father,”

Lucifer, who, as the “god” of Freemasonry,

gives us his “Gnostic redemption” and, with a

diabolical deception, diverts our aim of the

salvation of souls, with thefalsehood of Universal

Peace among Men.
