Jesus expresses the saving feelings and the thoughts of the Father, since eternity outstretched to men. Jesus is the Savior because He embodies God the Savior. Savior from what and who?
From who? Satan. From what? Egocentrism and anthropocentrism.

Jesus teaches us and tells us about His Mood, His “Heart”: the tension of God to exceed Himself towards the men; the tension of men to exceed themselves towards the Human beings, on the background and the fundament of the tension of God towards the other Himself.

For M.Q., the passion flower from Turin, Will of God = “Heart” of God.

Vito Mancuso answers to Enzo Bianchi

“on the contrary I think that:
1) It is the justice which saves;
2) Justice can be done by every man, inside and outside the Church, being connected to the logic of the creation;
3) Creation is the decisive theological issue and between matter and spirit there is no contrast. While the gnosis is a secret doctrine reserved to few on whose knowledge depends salvation, I on the contrary connect salvation to the practice of justice, as God says in Matthew 25 and in several other parts. While the gnosis consists of a total devaluation of nature, ascribed to a minor and wicked God, I on the contrary make of creation the decisive theological treatise and of the adherence to its logic the savior principle”.

Fraternal observation of the carthusian to Vito Mancuso: the most essential essence of the gnosis is the self salvation, which You pre-dict and says. In the name of an ontology with no transcendence, similar to that of Emanuele Severino. Which is still a monster of hyper logic coherence.

Enzo Bianchi: to the salvation “all the men of all the ages and cultures can take part when, through paths of humanization, make themselves conform to God”. But “if in the world there wasn’t the Church, the sign and the tool of God’s plan wouldn’t exist to gather all the men in the only body of Christ, so that “man becomes God”, according to the thought of eastern fathers”.

The shadow of death, for him and the others, unaware, breathed down the autistic’s neck.

“…John Haught distinguishes between hard atheism (hard-core) and weak atheism (soft-core). Hard atheism is the classical atheism (Feuerbach, Marx, Nietzsche, Freud, Sartre), which was aware of philosophical, cultural and existential consequences of the radical negation of God; which the new atheism does not have, because it ignores the nihilistic consequences of its same thoughts. It is, someone may say, of an uninhibited atheism, exclusively polemic with religion. In this sense, the German philosopher Klaus Muller talks about «atheism as a counter-religion (Gegenreligion)»…”.

Satan’s sin was the angel-centrism similar to the anthrop-centrism of the human sin. It was perfection without the Perfect-or.

M.Q., in the first part of her spiritual life gifted with very special Presents, knew the temptation of the beginners: being afraid of being a disillusioned. She found spiritual fathers open to these Dimensions but at the same time demanding from the ethic point of view. M.Q. grew up virtuous and mystic at the same time, very mystic, within an ethic and heroic commitment.

A Jesuit father, Hebrew, famous in the charismatic movement of Milan, longed to finish his life in Jerusalem. His “spiritual mother” invited him to postpone his option. M.Q., informed, in her prayer knew there was no sense to stall. She told it to the interested Jesuit, who preferred the soft alternative of his guide. He died beforehand killed by cancer.
He was a brilliant intellectual of faith, with a strong inclination to mystic. He lacked in listening and humbleness. He lacked in Light.
