The beatification of John Paul II
To beatified, a miracle ;
for saint, two
JGB - Madrid - 02/05/2011
In the past five centuries only two popes have risen to the top of the altar. They Pius V, who reigned between 1566 and 1572 and drove the Counter, and Pius X (1903-1914). The road to sainthood has accelerated since John Paul II abolished the figure of the Devil's Advocate, that burrowed into the defects of the applicant. A demonstration of the relaxation of the system is that Wojtyla had many saints as all his predecessors combined.
Another singing all the miracles. For those who believe in miracles in a church whose founder often made them, is proof that the miracle was also Wojtyla, as Pope Pius X, the cure of a nun. The Pius X had cancer, Parkinson's cured a Wojtyla.
In any case, the best miracle
would feed people
or eliminate the scourges of injustice.
was the commitment to Jesus Christ.
"I was sick and I am cured," said Marie Simon-Pierre, a French nun. Why chose this healing? According to the Medical Commission of the Causes of Saints, met the four requirements for rigor: instant, complete, lasting and inexplicable. To do so holy should be documented that the Blessed John Paul II has made a second miracle.
Benedict XVI was complicit in the silence imposed by Wojtyla to protect his friend Marcial Maciel
Can a Pope
that protected a
pederast be sanctified?
John Paul II, it
CECILIA GUZMAN 01/mayo/2011
The beatification of John Paul II, with more shadows than light, was celebrated Sunday with a ceremony attended by personalities from 87 countries. The opulence of the act, however, could not hide the doubts about the validity of the miracle of healing that is awarded to the former Pope, but especially its dark side stigmatized by a close friendship with the pederast Marcial Maciel, who continued to Throughout his life, despite warnings about their reprehensible practices.
The alleged cure of a French nun suffering from Parkinson has allowed this beatification, although in 2009 there were doubts about its veracity after doctors confirmed that the nun was still suffering from the disease. A diagnosis that was not worth the Vatican, which decided to proceed with its plan. Some sources cite more than 200 possible cures had been tried previously awarded to John Paul II, without success.
His silence and complicity of the present Pope
However, the low credibility of the miracle attributed to him is not the only shade hovers over the beatification. Juan Pablo II imposed the law of silence to accusations of pedophilia against his friend, the founder of the Legionaries of Christ, Marcial Maciel, a silence which was also complicit in the current pope.
In 1999, Bishop Carlos Talavera Mexican delivered a letter to Benedict XVI, then Cardinal Ratzinger, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith she recounted the abuses of the priest exlegionario Maciel Juan Manuel Fernández Amenábar.
A delicate issue
Bishop Talavera was the answer I gave Ratzinger, the pope today, tomorrow beatify his predecessor.
"Unfortunately, we can not
open the case of Father Maciel
because he is a
so dear to the Holy father
has greatly helped the Church
and consider it a very sensitive issue "
was his answer, as a connoisseur of the subject, Jesus Rodriguez, author of" The Confession. The strange adventures of Marcial Maciel and other mysteries of the Legion of Christ. "
Maciel was favored by John Paul II
During the long tenure of John Paul II, Maciel consolidated its congregation making it the fastest growing. When Wojtyla became Pope in 1978, the Legionaries of Christ had 100 priests . When the Pope died, there were 800 and 2,000 seminarians worldwide. Universities in Mexico, Chile, Italy and Spain, faculties of Theology, Philosophy and Bioethics, in studying more than 130,000 students. In addition, a staff of 20,000 employees and an asset 25,000 million euros, according El Pais.
sectors of the Church, disagree
There is no uniform acceptance in the Catholic world about this beatification, criticizing, for example, sectors of the Church itself in Germany, the prestigious Swiss theologian Hans Küng and groups in Spain and Christian networks and Alanda. For many, John Paul II was involved in an intolerant and repressive pontificate.
English representation in Rome
About 30 English bishops attended the beatification of John Paul II in Rome which was held on Sunday, along with Prince and Princess of Asturias and some 20 deputies, including the number two PP, María Dolores de Cospedal . By the Government, have been the new ambassador to the Holy See, María Jesús Figa, and Minister of Presidency, Ramon Jauregui, responsible for relations with the Catholic Church.

JOHN G. 02/05/2011 BEDOYA
The greatest pope of all time. " "Unrepeatable". "A solo Atlas to support the Church and the world." No hyperbole to elevate as Wojtyla. Nevertheless have continued to hear dissenting voices. Christian networks and many theologians have described as "monstrous" that elevation. Opposite stands the stunning announcement by the Government representative at the ceremony, the minister Jáuregui. Juan Pablo II "is the great pope of the twentieth century," he said.

The Kindness of potatoes is debatable, but very questionable virtues of poverty and humility from entering the office, one of those who exhibit more paraphernalia. John Paul II was no exception. Was more like the Emperor Constantine as the humble fisherman Peter. Among the miracles point to its influence with the powerful nations on Earth. The image giving communion to the criminal Pinochet would have to lose faith in Jesus Christ himself. Nor is the presence manca Vatican as a guest of Zimbabwean President Mugabe. The dictator has banned the entry into the EU.
said that Wojtyla was filled stadiums. Also emptied churches. On the crisis of Catholicism during his tenure, stands the testimony of those who now beatified. Benedict said nothing happen, when the church complained that he received was "devastated by wild boars a vineyard." "How much filth! It was like the crater of a volcano that suddenly came out of a world of filth, "he cried.
seem, therefore, is beatifying a failure. Another fact: the so-called century of women, the Vatican with John Paul II gave back to women when sentenced in apostolic letter " The Church has no authority to confer priestly ordination of women. This decision must be respected in a definitive manner. " Ratzinger has riveted doctrine "always and everywhere." They argue that Jesus had no women among his disciples, but the founder had "neither Christian nor wanted, powers and privileges, and here are the popes and emperors palace.
also beatified Benedict XVI a way of being pope. Pope Wojtyla was a politician who interfered even in the English Government's water plans. Political expression was their decision to promote the canonization of the martyrs of faith, "referring to the victims of the violence after the coup of 1936, which supported the hierarchy as" crusade. " Pius XII, John XXIII and Paul VI had opposed.
His hagiographers John Paul II called "the Great." The adjective is not innocent. Before there were two popes magnum, Leo I and Gregory the Great. The first, between 440 and 461, brought prestige to the Bishop of Rome because he convinced the king of the Huns, Attila, to withdraw the siege of the city and retreat to the north of the Danube. Gregory the Great, who reigned from 590 to 604, was the one who ended the position of the papacy as a separate power of the Empire. Had been prefect of Rome, and Pope, consolidated the doctrine they love the popes since then: that of the two swords. Summarized in this sentence: "There are two forces that rule the world: the sacred papal authority and monarchical power, of which the most important is that of the bishops, and must also account for the Kings before the divine tribunal" .
Can be beatified who remained fluid and very cordial relations with the Chilean dictatorship?
Friendships 'dangerous'
between Wojtyla and Blessed
the dictator Pinochet

Can be beatified who, as the case of Karol Wojtyla, or Pope John Paul II, remained fluid and very cordial relations with the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, the coup general Chilean-loaded by means of force and the most cruel repression, the democratic government of Chilean President Salvador Allende? Is evidence that this happened and that despite this, John Paul II never demanded that his friend Pinochet publicly apologize for the thousands of Chileans killed and to resign from the Head of State, usurped by him.
is true that the leadership of the Catholic Church regarding Pinochet, returned to the terrible times in which popes, cardinals and bishops supported and blessed absolutist regimes, while explicitly condemning the liberal ideas and even more so, the Socialists and Communists. The ecclesiastical exemption, however, then starred in Santiago de Chile Cardinal Raul Silva Henriquez, who did everything in their power to prevent a military coup and later, to defend human rights against the dictator.
Catholic ministers
In the Pinochet government ministers were almost all of them Catholics - some linked to institutions such as the Opus Dei-, significant circumstance that tends to fitting in the era of Chilean tyrant of the forty years of General Francisco Franco, the English tyrant. Pinochet revered and admired Franco-is shown, for having destroyed by armed violence, the Republic. Pinochet attended the funeral of Franco. He visited London quite often, the British prime minister Margaret Thatcher. He did it by 1999. Judge Baltasar Garzon accused tried to stop his many heinous crimes against humanity.
papal influences
She put one hand on the now Blessed Wojtyla. Vatican diplomacy was mobilized. And the papal influences acting on behalf of the bloody dictator and against judicial purposes Garzón and millions of people around the world. Do not forget that John Paul II greeted with Pinochet, from the balcony of the Palacio de la Moneda, was bombed during the coup, with President Allende in the Chilean-assembled there applauding and cheering to His Holiness Pope . Wojtyla was the same who gave communion to Pinochet and your family. Remember ELPLURAL.COM readers the many communions of Franco released by the No-Do and the TVE, that now does not like Maria Dolores de Cospedal? Remember also how the dictator was in processions and religious ceremonies under a canopy?
The higher clergy
Cospedal, incidentally, went to Rome, leaving planted some 2,000 farmers who had committed electoral dinner. What image of the secretary general of the PP, wrapped in the robes of the high clergy, kissing the hand of bishops and cardinals, including those contained in Cardinal Cañizares frontline increasingly reactionary! The votes of the monsignors has secured most of the PP.
