  • Notizie Utili
    NOTIZIE UTILI A cura della segreteria della Parrocchia Beata Vergine Immacolata Notizie ..………… ..………… …..……… Giugno 2021, n. 4 Carissimi, accogliendo benevolmente la richiesta di chi, abituato alle precedenti pubblicazioni cartacee del giornalino parrocchiale, mi chiedeva gentilmente di non appesantirlo con altre notizie, seppur interessanti, ho ritenuto opportuno inserire in un documento a parte quanto possa risultare utile al nostro cammino di crescita umana e spirituale. Cambia leggermente la modalità ma non lo spirito con cui da anni siamo dediti a portare avanti l’impegno di informare per formare. Lo scopo di questo servizio nasce semplicemente dal desiderio di comunicare e far conoscere ciò che a livello di chiesa locale, nazionale ed universale, accade quotidianamente nel mondo, evidenziando gli eventi più importanti. Buona lettura a tutti! In Cristo Fra Antonio M. Petrosino Parroco dell’Immacolata 1 DISCORSO DI PAPA FRANCESCO ALLA FRATERNITÀ POLITICA E ALLA COMUNITÀ “CHEMIN NEUF” Sala del Concistoro, Venerdì, 30 aprile 2021 Cari amici,do il mio benvenuto a voi, membri della Fraternità politica Chemin Neuf e, attraverso di voi, esprimo di cuore il mio saluto ai giovani di diversi Paesi che, come voi, beneficiano delle competenze e dell’accompagnamento della Comunità Chemin Neuf. Vi ringrazio di aver fatto questo spostamento fino a Roma, malgrado le limitazioni della pandemia. Con voi rendo grazie al Signore per l’opera del suo Spirito, che si manifesta nel vostro cammino umano e spirituale al servizio del bene comune e dei poveri specialmente, cammino che compite rifiutando la miseria e operando per un mondo più giusto e fraterno. Infatti, nella corsa sfrenata all’avere, alla carriera, agli onori o al potere, i deboli e i piccoli sono spesso ignorati e respinti, o considerati come inutili, anzi – e questo non sta lì [nel testo] – sono considerati come materiale di scarto.

  • On the Touch-Event Theopolitical Encounters
    ON THE TOUCH-EVENT Theopolitical Encounters Valentina Napolitano Abstract: This article addresses the ‘touch-event’ as a mediated affective encounter that pivots around a tension between intimacy and distance, seduction and sovereignty, investment and withdrawal. Through a reread- ing of the Pauline event of conversion to Christianity, it argues that an analysis of the evolving significance of touch-events for Catholic liturgy and a religious congregation shows the theopolitical as always already constituted within an economy of enfleshed virtues. Focusing on contem- porary examples of touch-events from the life of Francis, the first pope from the Americas, as well as from fieldwork among a group of female Latin American Catholic migrants in Rome, I argue for a closer examina- tion of touch-events in order to grasp some of their theopolitical, radical, emancipatory, and, in some contexts, subjugating effects. Keywords: Atlantic Return, economies of virtues, incarnation, Pauline event, Pope Francis, sovereignty, theopolitics, touch-event If one googles the word ‘touch-event’, what comes up is a definition of a keyword in the Java programming language—TouchEvent—that governs the interface between a given piece of software and a user’s contact with a piece of touch-sensitive hardware (e.g., a touchscreen or touchpad).1 Although this use of the term is distinct in obvious ways from my own theorization of touch- event in what follows, the Java keyword ‘TouchEvent’ nevertheless names an infrastructural modality that is at once a tactile, digital encounter (a move- ment) and a condition for its apprehension (a code). Anthropologists and histo- rians have written at some length about touch—chief touch, royal touch, papal touch, ritual and healing touch—and the connection between the king’s two bodies in medieval and early modern concepts of sovereignty (Firth 1940; Grae- ber and Sahlins 2017; Kantorowicz [1957] 1997).

  • Religion and Fake News: Faith-Based Alternative Information Ecosystems in the U.S. and Europe
    Religion and Fake News: Faith-based Alternative Information Ecosystems in the U.S. and Europe Christopher Douglas | 6 January 2018 Summary he intersection of fake news and religion is marked by three asymmetries. First, fake news circulates more among Americans than Europeans. Second, fake news circulates T among conservatives more than liberals. Third, fake news for conservatives often feature religious themes. The origin of the fake news information-entertainment ecosystem lies largely in Christian fundamentalism’s cultivation of counter-expertise. The intersection of fake news and religion today is being exploited by Russia to subvert Western democracies and deepen social divisions. Western countries need to strengthen mainstream evidence-based journalism, incorporate conservative religious leaders into mainstream discussions, and detach high religiosity from fake news information ecosystems. Page 1 About the Report This report was commissioned by the Cambridge Institute on Religion & International Studies (CIRIS) on behalf of the Transatlantic Policy Network on Religion and Diplomacy (TPNRD).

    CATHOLICPAC: WHY THE UNITED STATES CATHOLIC CONFERENCE OF BISHOPS SHOULD (PROBABLY) LOSE ITS 501(C)(3) TAX-EXEMPT STATUS Jesse Ryan Loffler* “A Catholic cannot vote for a candidate who takes a position in favor of an intrinsic evil, such as abortion or racism, if the voter’s intent is to support that position. In such cases a Catholic would be guilty of formal cooperation in grave evil.”1 INTRODUCTION During the 2008 election, now-Vice-President Biden was ad- monished not to take Communion by Denver Archbishop Chaput on account of Biden’s pro-choice position.2 Early in 2009, Arch- bishop Raymond Burke—now the head of the Vatican’s highest court, the Apostolic Signatura—stated to the media that any pro- choice Catholic politician should be refused Holy Communion.3 In late 2009, Rhode Island Bishop Tobin publicly implored U.S. Rep- resentative Patrick Kennedy to stop taking Eucharist because of Kennedy’s pro-choice views.4 While the Catholic Church is consti- * Juris Doctor, Benjamin N.

Tema do Mês Origens e história do Colégio Cardinalício A história dos cardeais começa por estar ligada ao clero de Roma e já vem de longe: o título de cardeal foi reconhecido pela primeira vez durante o pontificado de Silvestre I (314-335). Inicialmente o título de cardeal (do latim ‘cardo/cardinis’, que significa “eixo”) era atribuído genericamente a pessoas ao serviço de uma igreja ou diaconia, reservando-se mais tarde aos responsá- veis das igrejas titulares de Roma e das igrejas mais importantes da Itália e do mundo. Os cardeais nascem do grupo de 25 presbíteros das comuni- dades eclesiais primitivas (títulos) em Roma, nomeados pelo Papa Cleto (séc.
