In reply the Vatican countered with concerns and dismay to the charges assumed by the judiciary.
Vatican's bank is in breach of the legislation that would require, as well as all other banks to disclose information about its financial transactions.
Already more than a year ago, Italian investigators had identified transactions, the Holy See of the amount of millions of euro that were not respecting the rules against money laundering. The Vatican used its bank as a pretext to conceal crimes such as fraud and tax evasion.
As all readers of Rebirth well remember the Vatican had already been involved in a scandal in 1982 when involved in bankruptcy the largest Italian private bank (Banco Ambrosiano). At that time the formidable U.S. prelate Monsignor Paul Marcinkus, was head of the Bank which was later shown to be colluding with organized crime and terrorist activities of various kinds.
I think the scams and hoaxes of a religious nature can be defined as those that exploit the powerful psychological processes to which man is subject. These processes are the same ones who made it possible for the human race survive and creating art and technology but at the same time they have also transformed the Homo Sapiens in a gullible simpleton.
From time immemorial the clergy abused the faith of human beings. In several dioceses on around the globe, leaders of the Catholic Church are far from correct to throw those same victims of abuse to which they urbi et orbi declarations of peace and reconciliation.
Even during this recent wave of processes suffered by victims of crime "is not mature, the church reacts more like a business organization than as a sacred institution. The rich dioceses have claimed to be on the verge of bankruptcy and drastically proceed with the procedure of bankruptcy. Only when forced to open its books during the bankruptcy proceedings it became clear that several of these dioceses were actually filled with assets whose value would be made available for abuse victims who demanded compensation.
Richard Dawkins (ethologist, British biologist and science writer) and Christopher Hitchens (journalist Anglo American) told the Sunday Times they believed possible to stop Benedict XVI, during his recent visit to Britain. They contacted some lawyers to assess the feasibility of a lawsuit related to the coverage of cases of pedophile priests, of which he was responsible when Joseph Ratzinger was prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. The intent would be to apply the same statutory provisions that will, in 1998, the arrest of former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet (remember between the other in this article to forgetful who needed that Pinochet was blessed with his wife so much loved and venerated by Pope John Paul II).
The Pope in question and in general the Popes would enjoy diplomatic immunity because the state is recognized by the Vatican's UN status as observer only, and not as smooth.
Just during the recent visit of Benedict XVI overseas activists have launched campaigns to protest against the Pope to publicly demonstrate about the fact that Ratzinger did not release important files, which were nailed to the predators of children from the Vatican, has therefore contributed to capture and punishment of perpetrators.
will also be a case but the pattern preferred by Her Majesty of England is "the stoning of the Pope by the evangelists, who still wonder every day, thousands of visitors at the 'Hampton Court Palace near London.
For decades, the clergy have sexually abused children miles. These are deadly serious crimes and the hierarchy of the Holy Roman Church has been systematically involved in the coverage of such crimes, hiding the perpetrators to justice and avoiding the process, doing so has allowed the perpetrators of such crimes over time. The silence has reached the summit of the Vatican and it seems there are issues involving the same Pope Benedict. These when he was head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith knew about some of these cases and he would have covered some. If this is organized crime!
In England, where I went last week for work, I have read a firm position on this matter and sharp, there are those who publicly affirms that "the Vatican is not a state but a gay club. It has no permanent population, no one is born and has an area of \u200b\u200bjust 0.41 km ². A garden of gays in the center of Rome with the palaces of the powerful Build above. The idea that a religious leader who lives in this garden is to enjoy all the privileges and courtesies a head of state like a president is a kind of farce. "
Only for the fact that many people think that the Vatican is a sovereign state, what does the Vatican State. Benito Mussolini, who invented it as such in 1929. At that time the pope was Pius XI that "elected" the dictator as "a man of providence." I am almost certain that a good group of determined and motivated lawyers could easily dismiss the Vatican to the rank of "non-state." In this case, the Pope could easily be arrested for his crimes and civil society should, however, is not afraid to go to hell, do not tolerate any attempt by the Catholic Church to escape justice.
Religions have perhaps the same right to existence of the football clubs and trade unions or political parties but if I and a group of friends founded the "Church of the fairies of the garden" I do not think we would get easily the same right to meet with heads of Sato or use of public money for our "schools of fairy." And if we did not have a right to these privileges do not see why others may use it in a skirt. For historical reasons, to the aura of myth that surrounds the church has a 'excessive influence to the society and this is something that should be urgently changed in 2010.
churches struggling with a myriad of sexual abuse, have been touched heavily on the revelations about the theft of billions of euro, accounting for a dull, smoky and early Byzantine extravaganzas. While the faithful common people is forced to make sacrifices and efforts to survive, the majority of the bishops shall enjoy the privileges that the powerful and wealthy Roman church gave him.
many quarters now this blatant disparities, and all'indebita appropriation and mismanagement suggests the faithful to ask questions about more stringent senior members of the Church.
Many bishops are accused of hiding the problem, just as in the case of sexual abuse .. The bishops are determined to not let anyone look behind the curtain, in their parallel world made bank accounts and hidden assets that in many cases they have supported their power for entire centuries. The actual church property but remain hidden in the shadows like cockroaches.
The assets of the church, accumulated over the centuries, is a source of investment in many areas of business as the housing market, banks, academia, hospitals, breweries, land and vineyards by media. The church is also derived from company shares profits, foundations, endowments. As a rule, all this money flows into the coffers of the bishops. Only the bishops and their closest associates are aware of the budget of this shady business around the police tax are not required to check. The financial statements of public figures in the diocese are always very far from the availability of their own finances.
This Byzantine and complicated organization is managed with such secrecy that not even the chief financial officer of the diocese is talking about it openly during official matches and makes the system difficult to understand for those who are strangers to this organization.
Depending on the home dioceses, the church's fund managers may become members of the council tax, a tax panel diocesan board of a financial or administrative, sometimes goods are also laid on foundations to divert ' attention controllers.
Governments, including the Italian course, which shamefully discounts the ICI at the cash payment of the Vatican, pay substantial shares of their budgets for maintenance, the constant care of the cathedral and the construction of new churches. Most governments pay the salaries of the teachers of religion and in some countries (like Greece) the government pays a stipend to members of the clergy. Substantial aid is paid for conferences organized by the church, libraries operated by the churches and parishes, pastors who attend police stations, detention, military and psychiatric institutions. Other significant benefits to be derived from the municipalities and the local bishops, this costume is based on centuries-old agreements that modern politicians have never felt a need to review. The Catholic church to the sound of expensive commercials (especially in time of tax returns, so grab the good will of some rich relative of his lost sheep and eight per thousand) is at pains to point out what to do for the poor and weak, how active in promoting social cohesion, but governments are charged for this service accounts well salted.
the light of the latter, only in chronological episodes, the crisis of vocations and of believers is evident not only for the Catholic Church but also for other rites. The god of money whose mass is celebrated daily in stock markets across the world from Wall Street moving from Milan to Tokyo and Frankfurt, with continuous updates through the media, has taken over. The same clerics seem to worship the god of money more than anything else.
In 1966, John Lennon, in a manifestation of mass hysteria called Beatle said that the fabulous four were more famous than Jesus of Nazareth and continued his prophecy by claiming that Christianity would have disappeared. That same manifestation of mass hysteria called Beatle had similar traits to the unhealthy religious ecstasy that are still scattered all over the world. We do not know if the prophecy of Lennon will come true in the case and what will happen soon, but for now it seems that the architects of scomparsa della cristianità siano gli alti prelati del Vaticano stesso e non certo i sopravvissuti ragazzi di Liverpool.
