New Academy of Life: Bye-Bye John Paul II.
Pope Francis' Academy for Life, newly appointed on Tuesday, is more accommodating on subjects such as artificial contraception, in vitro fertilization, so called sexual orientation, homosexualism, passive euthanasia and other delicate topics, writes the Vaticanista Sandro Magister. According to him, those who take their inspiration from Saint John Paul II or Benedict XVI will not have - quote - "an easy life" with these changes.
For Magister the most emblematic new appointee is Father Maurizio Chiodi, who teaches moral theology in Bergamo, Italy. Chiodi is an open critic of Humanae Vitae, the encyclical of Paul VI that rejects artificial contraception, of John Paul II's encyclical Evangelium Vitae that opposes abortion and euthanasia, and of the instruction Donum Vitae that opposes in vitro fertilisation.

On October 13, 1884, after Pope Leo XIII had finished celebrating Mass in the Vatican Chapel, attended by a few Cardinals and members of the Vatican staff, he suddenly stopped at the foot of the altar.

On October 13, 1884, after Pope Leo XIII had finished celebrating Mass in the Vatican Chapel, attended by a few Cardinals and members of the Vatican staff, he suddenly stopped at the foot of the altar. He stood there for about 10 minutes, as if in a trance, his face ashen white. Then, going immediately from the Chapel to his office, he composed the prayer to St. Michael, with instructions it be said after all Low Masses everywhere. When asked what had happened, he explained that, as he was about to leave the foot of the altar, he suddenly heard voices - two voices, one kind and gentle, the other guttural and harsh. They seemed to come from near the tabernacle. As he listened, he heard the following conversation:
The guttural voice, the voice of Satan in his pride, boasting to Our Lord: "I can destroy your Church"
The gentle voice of Our Lord: "You can? Then go ahead and do so."
Satan: "To do so, I need more time and more power."
Our Lord: "How much time? How much power?
Satan: "75 to 100 years, and a greater power over those who will give themselves over to my service."

Our Lord: "You have the time, you will have the power. Do with them what you will."
