From the 24th to the 28th
of January at the Parenti Theatre in Milan there is
scheduled the exhibition “On the Concept of the Face of
the Son of God” by R. Castelluci, in which stones and
excrement will be thrown at an image of Our Lord Jesus
Christ.
I am sending as follows, therefore, some
reference links to the campaign launched by Professor de
Mattei, Vice President of CNR
(the
Italian Scientific Research State Institute), against
this Christophobia and most grave desecration:
1. The
video on YouTube by Prof. de Mattei.

2. The site
of the Committee of Saint Charles Borromeo, Basta
Cristianofobia (Enough Christophobia).

3. A brief
film clip on what has already happened in France and on
how this repugnant and hateful spectacle has been
opposed.

Insult is not liberty of expression, much
less insult to God, blasphemy. Therefore, I feel
compelled to become involved and to make an appeal to
oppose this spectacle.
I ask, therefore, that everyone join this
campaign to oppose the hatred of Christ and obviously of
Christians. In this case, in fact, it is not enough to
ignore the affair, as could be opportune in certain
other cases. It is necessary, instead, to react and
block the initiative, not only because it involves a
public blasphemy, but also for the following reasons:
1. It
constitutes a dangerous precedent from which can be
deduced the permissibility of deriding Christianity and
Christians—surely a prelude to subsequent persecution;
2. It
involves a veritable manifestation of Satan, the
deconsecration of the land, an efficacious satanic
liturgical act, similar and contrary to the Christian
baptism, almost two thousand years ago, by the edicts of
Constantine in 313 A.D. and of those following by
Theodosius, who died precisely at Milan, and who, under
the inspiration of Saint Ambrose, was the first true
Christian emperor.
The one who has carried forward and
supported this desecrating spectacle is not some
second-rate or superficial laicist. In fact, the
sacrilege-spectacle previously took place at Avignon
(seat of the temporal power of the Pope in France), at
Paris, (capital of the King of France and city in which
Louis IX, Saint Louis of France, built the Holy Chapel
to contain the relic of the Crown of Christ), and at
Rennes (seat of an ancient parlement of the King
of France with the function of confirming the legality
of the King’s decrees). The reason is that France was
definitively the eldest daughter of the Church, and thus
it was there that one had to commence the ceremony of
desecration, although Castellucci, the author of the
text, is Italian.
Now the public blasphemy is scheduled for
Milan, where in Il Duomo there has always been
conserved the Reliquary of the Holy Nail from the Cross
of Christ. (The Holy Nails, discovered in the course of
the excavations of Golgotha by Saint Helen, mother of
the Emperor Constantine, were given to the Emperor
Theodosius when Milan was capital of the Empire.)
The one who is behind this is not,
therefore, a naïf, but on the contrary someone who knows
history well, the founding principles of a society and
of a civil power, and who is animated by a profound
hatred for the Faith and Christendom as a historical and
material reality. What is in fact disturbing about
Christianity is precisely its historicity and
materiality (concerning the Holy Nails not only are
there hints in the works of Saint Ambrose and in the
documents of Theodosius, but also references in the
ancient histories of that epoch, those of Ruffino,
Teodoreto, Paolino of Aquila, Niceforo Callisto,
Socrates, Sozomeno) to those who affirm a religiosity
without a face, like that of Islam or Judaism and
Freemasonry.
We live in a time of lawlessness, not
only in Italy, but in the whole world, and for many
reasons.
The spectacle-blasphemy scheduled for the
Parenti Theatre is not only an offense and derision of
that which is most sacred for Christians, but a
repudiation of the concept of legitimacy that emanates
from a superior Authority, Christ the King of the
Universe. The first Christians, after Claudius who had
protected them, identified the Antichrist with the Roman
pagan emperor. The definitive rupture with the epoch of
Constantine and Theodosius is therefore the preliminary
to the coming of the epoch of the Antichrist, that is,
to a pagan and anti-Christian civil power that, like the
ancient Roman emperors, will point to himself as a
divinity (and already in our times one speaks of the
“sacredness” of laws emanating from Parliament!). It is
therefore also the preannouncement of the persecution of
Christians, even in Italy.
Thus today we must respond immediately.
Please circulate this appeal in a public form as we need
to internationalize the issue. Also please arrange for
common rosaries prayers if possible.
Finally we are preparing the English text
of e-mail or letters to be sent to the Parenti Theatre,
to Cardinal Scola, and to the Mayor of Milan Pisapia.
With fond regards,
