The two great gifts of God to the carthusian: the Catholic University in Milan (the meeting with the two superb speculative minds: Bontadini and Severino) and the Society of Jesus (the meeting with the spirituality of Ignacio and its fulcrum: the 3° degree of humbleness).

 

Hypocrisy is worse than lie.

 

Angels have a much high sense of friendship.

 

The Word is Sigh. The Crucified is Whimper.

 

Arbitrament Alfano. Arbitrament Thieves.

 

Will Christ save the children of the Reign before the catastrophe, giving them a privileged treatment, or will He save them after that catastrophe, that involves all the men, included the believers?

I am sure that the law of interhuman solidarity will involve all of us indiscriminately. Christ intervention will be determined starting from the catastrophe. Everybody will die but in order to resurrect, some for the Life, some for the Death.

I am reluctant to the typically Pentecostal idea of a celestial kidnapping of the believers, while the others are victims of horror on earth.

In synthesis: with men until the end and into the end. Even if my statements may not be completely Pauline. But the law of Pauline mystic body becomes, in my vision, the law of interhuman Net. Christ is dead for everybody, but even (this is not said) virtually with everybody.

 

M.Q. decades ago predicted him that he would “stop” 4 years before death. 4 years of heartache and from heartache?

 

Autistics phenomenally serious are not the most dangerous. Dangerous are those autistics who at first sight look normal, or genial. They do not speak for long. If they do they do not dialogue: they are long-winded, they deafen the others deceiving them and giving the impression of a particularly brilliant intelligence. Those autistics have a huge ability of lying. Only a diuturnal and sharp attention can find them out. Beware of those autistics. Their brilliant normality disarms those who mix up with them, reducing their alert, exposing them to big technical and not risks. The carthusian talks about it without any generalist claims.

 

Congar: “You can condemn a solution if it is false, but you cannot condemn a problem”. About the priests-workers.

 

Roman assertions. In sexto mandato non datur parvitas materiae: in the sixth commandment every sin is mortal. Even a conscious and deliberate thought.
