Italy is a Catholic State according to Vatican Council II(rational)





For me Vatican Council II supports the historical understanding of Roman Catholicism in Italy. The Councilor Church, the post Vatican Council II Church says Italy is Catholic. This must be the slogan of the political parties, ‘Italy is a Catholic State according to Vatican Council II(rational)’.This must be known to Matteo Salvini .The political party Lega and other conservative political parties in Italy must ask Pope Francis to please accept Vatican Council II ( rational).

The conservative political parties must announce that Italy is Catholic! This is the Catholic Church today of Vatican Council II, rational.

During the times of the Papal States there was no Vatican Council II (irrational). There was no 1949 Letter of the Holy Office to the Archbishop of Boston confusing invisible cases of the baptism of desire as being visible exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS). The Creeds and Catechisms were not interpreted irrationally with a fake premise (invisible people are visible in the present times).Today we are back to the ecclesiology of Matteo Ricci, Marco Polo and Christopher Columbus.

It is important for the political parties to mention this information in their manifesto since this will be the best thing which will have happened for the political parties in Italy. The Catholic Church will no more be with the political Left. Vatican Council II (rational) will prevent it. The Church will have to choose between being faithful to the Gospel and Vatican Council II (rational) or supporting the Left. There cannot be an Amoris Letitia, Traditionis Custode or the document supporting homosexual unions, when Vatican Council II is rational.

It is important for the political parties to announce that LG 8, 14, 15. 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II, refer to hypothetical cases only. Then they must ask Pope Francis to make the same announcement. It is as simple as that.

When Pope Francis and all the cardinals interpret Vatican Council II as a break with Tradition they are interpreting 8, 14, 15, 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc, as being physically visible examples of salvation outside the Church. So of course they become objective exceptions for the dogma EENS. the Athanasius Creed and the Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX. The Catechism of Pope Pius X (24Q, 27Q) is made obsolete.

When I interpret Vatican Council II as continuity with Tradition, I am interpreting LG 8 etc as referring to physically invisible cases in the present times. So they are not objective exceptions for the dogma EENS, the Catechisms of Trent and Pius X and the Syllabus of Errors etc.

This is the difference.

When I interpret Vatican Council II rationally, I take the Church back to Tradition. I do not create a new theology. Automatically we return to the old theology. With Vatican Council II rational, we return to the Italy of the Papal States, to Catholic Italy. We can proclaim the Social Reign of Christ the King in all political legislation based upon the dogma EENS, the Athanasius Creed, Vatican Council II and all the Catechisms.

Fr. Paolo Boumis  and his Assistant Parish Priest at the church of Sant Agapito, Rome cannot proclaim the Social Reign of Christ the King with the non separation of Church and State, even though they know that LG 16 etc refer to hypothetical cases only. Since in their mind they follow the new ecclesiology based upon Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally .For them LG 8, 14, 15, 16 etc refer to physically visible cases. This has been part of their formation.

If they were honest these priests and those in the rest of Rome, must only accept the old ecclesiology, which is based upon Vatican Council II, interpreted rationally. LG 8, 14, 15, 16, UR 3, NA 2, and GS 22 etc are always invisible cases in 2024.

EUROPE GETS BACK TO THE OLD ECCLESIOLOGY

The whole of Europe needs to get back to the old ecclesiology of the Catholic Church through Vatican Council II (rational).Whenever I refer to Vatican Council II, it is always rational for me.

There is no rupture between faith and reason and no separation between the Church and State. We cannot separate the Kingdom of God from the Catholic Church and neither can we separate Jesus from the Catholic Church, which the Bible tells us is His Mystical Body.

It was the Catholic Church which collected the inspired manuscripts and gave us the Bible in its present form. It was the Catholic Church which gave Europe its scientific development. The early astronomers were bishops and priests. Before Galileo, Copernicus knew that the earth circled the sun. When we speak of Europe's Christian roots we are referring to its Catholic roots. -Lionel Andrades
