------At the request of many people from and abroad, and after more than twenty years of collaboration with this courageous Priest, I decided to write this short biography of Father Luigi Villa, because I can no longer be silent about the indescribable and unending persecution suffered by this old, faithful and incorruptible Minister of God! ------

Before leaving Bari, Fr. Berni wanted who was passing, who said: «Good Father Luigi to go with him to San sign, good sign!» adding that Padre Giovanni Rotondo. Arriving there, Fr.

However, having heard that from Bari and went to the Bishop of this project was initiated by Padre Chieti, Msgr. Giambattista Bosio. Pio, he said he would talk to the Holy Father. And he did. When Msgr. Bosio came back to Cardinal Tardini, the Cardinal told him that Pius XII had approved the mandate given by Padre Pio to Fr. Vil- la, but with two conditions: Father Luigi had to have a degree in dogmat- ic theology, and that he had to be placed under the direction of Card. Alfredo Ottaviani, Prefect of the Holy Office, Card. Pietro Parente, and Card. .

Msgr. Giambattista Bosio, Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto.

The Bishop asked: «Why are you here?» Father Luigi said: «Because Padre Pio told me to come to you.» And then explained the reasons. But Msgr. Bosio said: «This is impos- sible! A bishop has only authority in his diocese, and your agenda is much broader! However, since you were told by Padre Pio whom I have never seen or known, I will go to for a clarification.» In fact, Bishop Bosio went to the Sec- retary of State, Cardinal , to speak of the commitment Card.

5 After this, Msgr. Bosio, by decree of May 6, 1957, secretly incardinated Father Villa, in his diocese of Chi- eti-Vasto. Father Luigi, then enrolled at the Uni- versity of Fribourg (CH) where he “received a diploma” in Sacred Theol- ogy in July of 1963. He graduated, then, at the Lateran University in Rome, on April 28, 1971.

It was not a great surprise for Father Villa to read many names of senior officials as they had already been removed from their positions, some time before, since he had provided the documents to the Cardinal Pietro Palazzini.

7 from Padua joined him, Mr. Pag- nossin, a convert of Padre Pio, who offered to pay for the trip and the stay in Portugal. Cardinal Ottaviani had provided him with a personal letter, signed by him, as Prefect of the Holy Office. This was to be delivered to the Bishop of Coimbra, to allow him to arrange a meeting with Sister Lucia. But the Bishop of Coimbra, before granting the meeting with the Seer, picked up the phone and called the Vatican. Msgr. an-

Then one day in Haiti, he risked his life. He went to that country for a mis- sion, but was seized by the military and was taken to a place, to be execut- ed by shooting. But Father Villa had an inspiration: he asked the officer who guarded him, if he could speak with one of his dearest friends, the Su- perior of the local seminary. The offi- cer, troubled by the request, went to his superiors and came back immedi- ately, saying: «We made a mistake.» The Mason Msgr. Giovanni Benelli, Father Villa was released at once.

As long as Pius XII lived, the Vati- can, for Father Villa, was more than welcoming: in addition to meetings, related to his activities as a secret agent, Father Villa dined and supped at least fifty times with Cardinals and Bishops. But when Paul VI came to power, he found himself deprived of every hospitality and every opportuni- ty to take steps to defend the Catholic Faith.

The premeditated failures

There were many initiatives and works that Father Villa tried to initiate Paul VI. but even under the pontificate of Pius XII, he was forced to fail.

After returning later, in Rome, to fight the resurgent Modernism and Cardinal Ottaviani told Father Villa Progressivism in the Church.

9 The order came directly from Msgr. Giovanni Benelli. In that same period, still the same Ma- sonic Pro-Secretary of State, Msgr. Benelli, prevented him from continu- ing a series of “Congresses of Study.” Father Villa managed to organize only the first three: 1. The First Congress of Rome, enti- tled “Orthodoxy and Ortho- praxy” (October 1-4, 1974); 2. The Congress, entitled: “The Woman in the Light of Catholic Theology” (Sept. 16-18, 1975); 3. The Second Congress of Rome, en- titled: “Christianity and Atheistic Communism” (Sept. 20-22, 1977). In the two Congresses in Rome, the Cardinal , presence of Cardinals prevented Msgr.

The Florit, was ordered by Rome to pro- Cardinal, regretting that command, hibit participation in the Congress immediately communicated that to Father Villa and promised to send a Bishop to preside over the entire du- ration of the Conference. And so it happened! Other initiatives that were aborted were: the establishment of a “third branch” of religious-seculars, to ac- company the various Missionary In- stitutes, and the initiative of “recruit- ment” of “vocations” to the priest- hood; initiatives that were then imi- tated by all the Seminaries and Mis- sionaries Institutes. However, his ini- tial plan of spiritual formation was de- viated and ended with their secular- ization. Personally, Father Villa found more than fifty men who had vocations and entered missionary seminaries. Men, who today, are priests. By now, it was clear that he was no longer permitted to make any steps, Cover of the Proceedings of the Conference realize any idea, or start any project in Florence, organized by Fr.

10 For this reason, he said “no” to two wealthy Americans who offered him billions if he gave them his magazine “Chiesa viva.” He also had the odd “offer” of a bil- lionaire American lawyer who said he would be willing to finance him every step of the way, if he could establish an organization to destroy the current traditional Church and establish a “new” one that would ensure triumph. Father Villa was always just as active in his priestly work of saving souls. A singular case occurred in 1957, when he had a meeting with the famous Italian writer, Curzio Malaparte. First associated with Fascism and then, towards the end of his life, to Communism, Malaparte was lying in a clinic in Rome with cancer.

He also tried to prevent the en- trance of Father Villa, but could not. Malaparte smiled at him and said: Father Villa had to refuse to accept of- fers of friends and … even enemies. He refused, in fact, several “dona- tions” of villas and huge sums of mon- ey. A Cardinal even wanted to give him his entire property: two large pri- mary and secondary schools, already in operation, and two villas with 60 acres of olive trees and a church. Then, Card. Giuseppe Siri offered him the Benedictine Convent in Genoa. But Father Villa rejected it all, always, because he had already fore- seen the storm that was destroying the Church, and therefore preferred to stay poor. He did not want to be linked and involved in economic and financial issues. However, most im- portantly, he wished to remain free to deal with the mandate he had received from Padre Pio and Pope Pius XII to help the Church to heal the confused situation in which She would be The famous Italian writer, Curzio Malaparte, found under the attacks of ecclesiasti- who knew Don Villa, shortly before dying of cal Masonry! cancer.

11 «You have character. You must fight.» Another time, when he went to visit him, Father Villa spoke of his plan to found a new Institute. So great was the enthusiasm of Malaparte that he promised that, if he recovered, he would put his pen to his service. The last time he saw him, Malaparte told Father Villa that, after much thought, he had decided to give him his villa in Capri, as the first headquarters of the Institute he wanted to found. But noth- ing came of it because only a few days later, the room of Malaparte was rein- forced by the Communist, Secchia and a number of Communists of the man- agement of the magazine “Vie Nuove” The Montinian Msgr.

When Bishop Bosio died, Father Villa was abroad. On his return, he imme- diately went to Chieti to pray at his tomb. The new Bishop of Chieti, and there- fore the Superior of Father Villa, was Msgr. Loris Capovilla, former confi- dence man of the Bishop of Padua, Msgr. Girolamo Bortignon, who was one of the worst enemies of Padre Pio, former personal secretary of Pope John XXIII and Paul VI’s former personal secretary, from 1963 to 1967. Father Luigi went to see him immedi- ately and had a conversation with the Bishop. However rather than address- ing the issue of his incardination, he spoke with him for over an hour, try- ing to convince him not to write any more articles against communism, Archbishop Loris Capovilla had been person- because - he said - Soviet commu- al secretary of John XXIII and of Paul VI un- nism will win and we must come to til 1967.

14 These are only the primary examples of the “modus operandi” of Father Villa’s enemies: enemies who have never faced him fairly and in an open field, but always acting from behind, with duplicity, hitting him with every means, including, as we shall see, the assassination attempts.

Beginning of “The Way of the Cross” The era of being well-received in Vat- ican circles, during the last period of the Pius XII’s reign, had vanished, and now, the isolation and persecution had begun. The relationship of seeming predilec- tion with Pius XII, suddenly, turned into one of initiating a lethal policy: «Ignore him and make him ig- nored!»

An attitude of Paul VI which shows his impatience when he was contradicted.

said, though, that if it was up to him, this Decree would have never been granted. On September 3, 1968, Father Villa received an “ultimatum” from the Vicar General of Chieti, Msgr. F. Marinis, to be incardinated in Bres- cia, within the end of the year. On December 15, 1968, Father Villa wrote a letter to Card. Pietro Palazz- ini informing him of all these maneu- vers which were aimed to “under- mine” the Institute, that had recently been founded. The Angelic Pope Pius XII.

15 Here are two facts that illustrate these two different attitudes: One day, Father Villa sought and im- mediately obtained an audience with the Angelic Pope Pius XII. This took place in a palatial room, crowded with people. Pope Pius XII asked for Fr. Villa. Father Villa came forth and af- ter a brief exchange of words, Pius XII took his hands in his and hugged him in front of everyone, as if to signify his predilection for this priest to whom, in secret, He had giv- en a tremendous mandate that had never before been entrusted to any other priest.

At the end of the meeting, after two and a half hours of a passionate and en- lightening interview, he told Father Villa: «Believe me, Paul VI deliv- ered entire Christian Countries into the hands of Communism ... » On September 24, 1971, “il Messag- gero Abruzzo” carried an article enti- tled: “The Archbishop (Msgr.

Capovilla was not removed from the diocese of Chieti within three days, they would have to indite him and put join the Order of Journalists and found his own Magazine, so that the ecclesiastical authorities could not, somehow, cause it to fail. Father Vil- la, then, joined the National Associa- tion of Journalists, taking the Card number 0055992. At that time, to his credit, he had about thirty publica- tions (theological, ascetic, literary, and political) and over a thousand “ar- ticles” have already been published in magazines and newspapers. In 1971, Fr. Villa founded his Review “Chiesa viva,” with correspondents and collaborators in all continents. The first issues were released on the date September, 1971. A few months later, in Vienna, on December 14, 1971, Father Luigi had a personal en- counter with Card.

Giovanni Benelli who officially coined the new strategy of war against Father Villa. In meetings with his staff, speaking of Father Lui- gi, Msgr. Benelli would say: «We need to silence that Father Villa!» But when someone objected: «Your Eminence! Rather, we must prove him wrong.» The Cardinal, irritated, replied: «Well, then ignore him and make him ignored!» But this was not enough, for the voice of Father Villa was his magazine “Chiesa viva” and this “voice” had to be silenced.

With the sudden stopping of the car, Father Villa recovered and got out of the car. He found himself surrounded by a crowd and a policeman asking if he should take him to hospital. Father Villa refused; he climbed into the car and drove off. 3rd After several months, Father Villa paid a visit to a priest “friend,” and after having finished lunch with a cup of coffee, he came home. During the trip, however, he began to feel sick. Arriving home, he was in such a state that his doctor was immediately called. The diagnosis was “poison- ing”. The doctor said: «Did they give Cardinal Casaroli, appeared in the “List of you a poisoned coffee?» However, Pecorelli” with the date of registration: over the next several days, the doctor 28/09/1957, Serial Number: 41/076 and Acronym: CASA.

managed to pull Father Villa out of the danger of death. After several years of accompanying Father Villa on visits to his high-rank- ing friends and having acquired a deep knowledge on the problem of Mason- ic infiltration in the Church, I attended a meeting on the issue of the “List of Pecorelli” which was published by “Chiesa viva” just a few months be- fore the attempted poisoning.

Silvio Oddi about this “List.” The Cardinal said: «This is a partisan list.» The other, however, The cover of the Magazine “OP,” of the Sep- tember 12, 1978 issue, which published the said: «The “List of Pecorelli” is the “List of Pecorelli,” containing names of 121 list of all the men of Card.

In the presentation, after stressing the reliability of this “List” Agnoli says: «... Father Esposito informs us that among the protagonists of the bilateral dialogues between representatives of the Church and Masonry, which took place between 1966 and 1977, there was the Salesian, Don Vincenzo Miano, Secretary of the “Secretariat for non-believers” and author of a book entitled: “The Secretariat for Non-believers and Freemasonry”. Father Esposito re- ports that Don Miano participated in all these dialogues “and then explaining the positions gained to the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and just like Paul VI, who was following and encouraging these meetings”».

23 Benelli, Casaroli, Ruini

Msgr. Giovanni Benelli was, first, Pro-Secretary of State, then, in 1977, he became the Bishop of Florence, and soon after, he was made Cardinal. After the death of Paul VI, he tried to be elected Pope, but instead Card. Siri was elected, who, because of the terrible threats made by the same Card. Benelli, had to surrender. And so, as a compromise, Card. Lu- ciani was elected, under the name John Paul I. But after 33 days of his reign, John Paul I was murdered. It was the same Father Villa who asked Card. Palazzini to have an autopsy During the Pontificate of John Paul II, “Chiesa viva” denounced the membership of Card.

One of the two parties said: «The “List of Pecorelli” had been pub- lished by Freemasonry, itself, to stop Cardinal Casaroli’s rise to the papacy». In fact, the discussion continued with the consideration that Card. Casaroli John Paul I was murdered after 33 days of his was so powerful in the Vatican that pontificate. It was Father Villa who ordered Card. Palazzini to conduct an autopsy. Three only Freemasonry could have stopped autopsies were conducted, which were called him, if they had not chosen him as “medical examinations” and they all ended up Pope. with the verdict: “Assassinated!”

With the death of Card. Giovanni Benelli, in 1982, Card. became the most powerful man in the Vatican. But “Chiesa viva” still had a very valiant and courageous staff, because, besides those who abandoned the bat- tle, there were also people who, de- spite their high position in the Vati- can, were outspoken collaborators of Father Villa’s Review and his true de- fenders.

28 Later, in a letter dated January 9, 1995, Msgr. Bettazzi thanked Father Villa for receiving him and said that he “realized his good faith” adding the phrase: «... I am agreeable to consider immediately what I want- ed to do from the very beginning, that is to withdraw the complaint» and ended the letter with the words: «And ... Arrivederci, in Heaven, you will finally discover that, among my faults, there absolutely will not be that one of belonging to Freemasonry.» But Father Villa was not in Paradise yet. On March 28, 1995, he wrote a letter to the Secretary of State, Card. , demanding the re- moval of Msgr. Bettazzi from the diocese of Ivrea, listing 11 serious reasons and including the evidence of the Bishop of Ivrea’s membership in- to Freemasonry. He also proved that The cover of the dossier, “PDS: Scopriamo le the work of Msgr.

for granted by the press, could have had an outcome so unpredictable and disappointing. But I remember that towards the end of 1994, Fr. Villa asked me to type a letter addressed to the Secretary of State, Card. Angelo Sodano, in which he said that he was not going to become a victim and that he would make known the names of all the Cardinals ... Soon after, Fr. Villa’s lawyer was con- tacted by the lawyer of Msgr. Bet- tazzi because the Bishop of Ivrea de- sired to be received by Father Villa. The meeting took place in early Janu- ary. Msgr.

Bettazzi had something to do with the articles published by Father Villa on the interviews of Card. Martini, but the only item worth mentioning is I remember that one day Father Villa showed me a book in which there was written that if Cardinal Martini had become Pope, his Secretary of State, in all probabil- ity, would have been Msgr. Luigi Bettazzi. Then, for months, entire cities of Italy were covered with the pamphlet “PDS: Scopriamo le Carte,” but the effects of these distributions were death threats.

It was also based on the fact that Father Villa had heard this directly from an authoritative source in the Ma- sonic field. The Bishop did not react, but went into another room to cool off, and came back, then composed. However, Father Villa received a copy of the letter written by the Bishop of Brescia, from a graduate of Milan, who also informed him about the wide distribution in that diocese. This letter deserved a proper “Re- sponse,” accompanied with four arti- cles of Father Villa, from a famous Je- suit, a prominent lawyer of Interna- tional Law and from an Attorney Gen- eral at the Court of Cassazione. The “Response” was published in “Chiesa viva” and also printed as a dossier.

Book cover: “Si speieghi, Eminenza!” (Ex- plain Yourself, Eminence!) published in 2000.

«… We are committed to stemming as much as possible and fighting with the allowed means this resur- gence of arrogance and proud pre- sumption of being holders of the truth.» We never knew if the letter was to re- main confidential. The Cardinal pub- lished the letter in the diocesan bul- letin, making it publicly available to the clergy of Milan. Then, Msgr. Sanguineti asked for a personal meeting with Father Villa. During this interview, on the subject of Masonic infiltration in the Church, he also made reference to the Bishop, Msgr. Sanguineti snapped: «But do you believe that I am a Mason?» «Yes, certainly.» Said Father Villa, Cover of the dossier: “Response to a letter presenting, as a determinant, the fact from the Bishop of Brescia,” published in that he was made Vicar General by 2000.

So on May 25, 1992, he indeed “supernatural.” telephoned Secretary of State, Msgr. Nicolino Sarale, the faithful friend and collaborator of “Chiesa viva,” asking about this decision of Card. Ruini to open the “beatification” of Paul VI. Well, Msgr. Sarale told Father Villa that this decision was a “forced coup” by Card. Ruini, because most of the Italian Bishops would have never wanted it! The “cause of beatification” contin- ued to proceed until the year 1997. Father Villa was aware of the fact that Card. Pietro Palazzini had sent a letter to the Postulator for the “cause of beatification” of Paul VI that contained three names of the last homosexual lovers of Paul VI.

In 1992, Cardinal Camillo Ruini announced the introduction of the “beatification cause” of Paul VI with a “forced coup” against the majority of the Italian Bishops who didn’t want it.

During the course of the proceedings of the XXXV Assembly of the Italian Bishops Cardinal Ruini, announced the decision to introduce the “cause of beatification” of Paul VI before the Pope and the Bishops. On May 13, 1992, Card. Ruini, pres- ident of the CEI and the Vicar of the Pope for Rome, issued an edict which, among other things, reads: «We invite all individual believers to communi-

From Rome, someone told us that the Vicar of the Pope, Cardinal Ruini, was furious. He wondered who had fi- nanced the printing and mailing of these books, free of charge, to thou- sands of members of the Italian Cler- gy. When Father Villa told me about this telephone call, smiling, he said: «We should respond to the Vicar of His Holiness, that the lenders are three Persons and their names are: Fa- ther, Son and Holy Spirit.» The reactions to the book were vio- lent, and as a result, I, as the sender, had my share of this irrational and fu- rious reaction. We even received several copies of the book with all the pages torn out and containing phrases and epithets, written in black marker, to embarrass even the wicked and most hardened.

34 The book “Paul VI beatified?” was the natural consequence of the refusal by the Postulator of the “beatification cause” of Paul VI to take into due consideration the “fact” concerning the impure and unnatural vice of Paul VI.

The occasion was the beatification of Giuseppe Tovini from Brescia, which, however, was associated with the “beatifica- tion cause” of Paul VI. But Fr. Villa didn’t lose heart. On Au- gust 15, 1998, he wrote a long letter to Secretary of State, Card. Angelo Sodano, explicitly asking to cancel the visit of the Pope to Brescia. The reason was that the spread of the book “Paul VI beatified?” had been achieved and that he had received en- thusiastic letters from influential peo- ple in the judicial and cultural world.

It reported on a design of the cross, which sculp- tor, Arnaldo Pomodoro, wanted to construct for the “new church” of Renzo Piano, in San Giovanni Roton- do, and dedicated to Padre Pio. This article was given to Father Villa by a friend who, among other things, pointed out some weird symbols that appeared on the arms of the cross that looked like hammers and trowels. I immediately began to investigate the strange cross. After about a month, I gave a report to Father Villa: «The 11°, 22° and 33° degrees of Freemasonry of the An- cient and Accepted Scottish Rite are represented on the lower and side arms of this cross. The Masonic apron is symbolized in the central part of the cross and, on the upper arm, Lucifer is represented in different ways.» Then I added: «The significance of these symbols is: the Cult of the Phallus, the Cult of Man and the Book cover: Cult of Lucifer. This symbolizes the “A Masonic Monument to Paul VI.” Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite

In September, 2002, Father Villa replied to these two new promotions with the dossier: “An Appointment Scandal,” which also reported three letters of Msgr. Marchisano to the Venerable Grand Master of Italian Freemasonry, where, in one of these, he wrote: «Venerable and Illustrious Grand Master, with great joy I re- ceived, through F. MAPA (Mons.

43 The Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No 381, the Satanic Temple of San Giovanni Rotondo, dedicated to St. Padre Pio, was released February 20, 2006. The meaning of occult symbols etched everywhere in this “new church” is the glorification of Freemasonry and its “god” Lucifer, with horrible insults to Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Most Holy Trinity. The Masonic symbolism of the Tabernacle expresses the substitution of “Jesus the Redeemer” with “Lucifer redeemer of man”, while that on the stone cross expresses the re- placement of “Christ the King” with Lucifer, “king of the universe”. But the worst insult is ad- dressed to the Most Holy Trinity for having been driven out and replaced with the blasphemous and satanic Masonic “Triple Trinity”.

The fact didn’t bother us that much, because we were used to this policy of “silencing everything about it all,” but mainly because Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Most Holy Trinity had been horribly insulted, no one could ever pretend to gag these Three Almighty Persons directly involved in this issue. The Italian Edition of the study on the Satanic Temple was followed by the German, English, French, Span- ish and Polish Editions. Slowly, the horror of this Satanic Temple was spreading in Italy and abroad, and the flow of pilgrims, who had never shown appreciation for this strange “new building”, continuously dwin- dled, with the fearful consequence of the decreasing flow of donations. The impossibility of being able to re- fute the study, whose contents were most disturbing and the growing at- tention from the national and interna- tional audience, which grew by the day, imposed a “response,” but with- out entering into the merits of the ar- guments raised and proven by our The meeting with the priest was brief.

45 Father Villa didn’t eat or drink any- thing, while the only one to do so was the elderly driver. Getting into the car, Father Luigi im- mediately, asked the driver to take him to his lawyer friend who lived nearby. A few minutes later, they found themselves sitting in his dining room. While Father Villa was talking to the lawyer, the driver began to feel strange. His vision was as if he was looking through a shattered and moving glass. Gradually, he was no longer able to move his legs, feet, arms and hands. He breathed deeply, trying to overcome these sensations, but at certain point, they had to lie him down on the sofa, as they watched him anxiously. The driver never lost consciousness, but his strange visual anomalies continued along with paralyzation of the up- per and lower limbs. After about fif- teen minutes, he felt better, got up and Cardinal Camillo Ruini. said that he was ready to drive. What would have happened if the two had not visited the lawyer friend right away?

The central idea of the hidden symbolism of this “new church,” dedicated to the “Risen Christ,” is the figure of the Knight of the Rosicrucians, the 18th degree A.A.S.R. of Freemasonry, which has the task to obliterate the Sacrifice of Christ on the Cross from the face of the earth.

In recent weeks, the medical consulta- tion of the Congregation for the Caus- es of Saints presented a favorable view on the miracle attributed to the intercession of Pope Wojtyla – that is - the healing of a French nun from Parkinson’s - and the documentation in recent days has also passed the scrutiny of theologians. Before the file arrives on Benedict XVI’s desk, now the only thing missing is the green light of the Cardinals and Bish- ops who are members of the Congre- gation, who have just received the dossier on the miracle.

62 The Special Issue of “Chiesa viva” No. 430, against the beatification of John Paul II, was released in September, 2010 and reached tens of thousands of people similar to the distribution made with the previous PDF file of the 20 articles on this Pope. Besides the Italian and French editions, new editions are being prepared in other languages. This is a complete and accessible work available to the general public, showing all sides of this dark and disturbing “itinerant” Pope, who spent much of his Pontificate pursuing the mirage of bringing together all religions into a single World Religion under the direction of Freemasonry, to achieve the World Government of the Antichrist!
