IS THE NEW CATHEDRAL TO PADRE PIO IN SAN GIOVANNI ROTONDO ACTUALLY A "MASONIC TEMPLE"?
I have just received and am in the process of studying a special issue, #381 (March 2006), of the Italian religious magazine “CHIESA VIVA”. It is my understanding that in March 2006 this special issue was sent by the publisher/editor of “Chiesa Viva”, Dr. Monsignor Luigi Villa, to Catholic & 'catholic' priests, Bishops, Cardinals, as well as a selected group of Italian lay persons including members of the judiciary. This entire special issue deals with only one subject, that being the inauguration in July 2004 (construction began in 1996) of the new Cathedral dedicated to Padre Pio of San Giovanni Rotondo. The authors allege that after years of study they are now able to prove that this new church is in fact, NOT a Catholic Church, but rather a “Masonic temple”!
The authors (the engineer Franco Adessa) further allege that they have analyzed the complete church structure including the entry doors to the church, the altar plus the cross that hovers over it, the chapel of Adoration with the Tabernacle made out of jet black stone with the 13 plaques of silver as well as the immense stone cross that towers 40 meters over the piazza.
The authors allege that Masonic symbols are apparent everywhere. The authors allege that their special issue of Chiesa Viva has put into focus an alleged Masonic plan to DO battle with God by attempting to destroy the Catholic Church with Masonic Ecumenism. According to the authors the most devastating aspect of this blasphemy is the direct insult to the Holy Trinity and Our Lord Jesus Christ that have been symbolically displaced from the Cross and the Tabernacle and replaced by the blasphemous “Masonic triple trinity” and of Lucifer in person.
The authors allege that this story is one of money, power and control that go to the very top. To date news services around the world seem to be totally unaware of what has allegedly transpired in San Giovanni Rotondo, not one word has been uttered by the Vatican or other officials and millions of devotees to Saint Padre Pio are unaware and would be outraged if they ever suspected that their donations (estimated to be over $250,000,000.00 US) had been used to allegedly defame their beloved Saint!
If these allegations are in fact verified the scandal could be enormous. Millions of Catholics devoted to Padre Pio would be shocked and angry. The scandal would involve huge sums of money, the defamation of a Sainted Priest loved world wide by millions, the undermining of Faith, the undermining of the Catholic Hierarchy. It seems that officially no one in the Vatican is talking about this alleged scandal, even though a special reunion took place in San Giovanni Rotondo, on May 1 through May 6, 2006 attended by 150 Vatican experts including the Secretary of State Sodano. Ostensibly these experts converged on San Giovanni Rotondo to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the hospital (Casa di Sollievo della Sofferenza) by Padre Pio. Their meetings were open to the public during the day, however, their closed door evening meetings were allegedly dedicated to high level discussions of the Chiesa Viva special issue #381.It was subsequently reported, confidentially, that the Vatican has adopted an official solution that essentially amounts to total silence on this matter! If this is true then the allegations of Chiesa Viva may be much more than allegations and silence on the part of the Vatican is tantamount to conceding victory to Chiesa Viva. How long can this story be kept under wraps before the devotees of Padre Pio find out that they and their saint have been betrayed!?
The Masons have been undermining Italian Catholicism ever since Garibaldi helped establish the Republic of Italy.
Italy is in danger of becoming Muslim because of the prevalence of Masonic anticlericalism over the past approximately 150 years.

I don't think Pravknight was deliberately telling a lie about that. There are some websites that say he is, others that say he isn't. One says he was in the DeMolay Youth Group, but never actually became a Freemason.
He was associated with DeMolay in his youth >>>
you are right, Clintoon was never a mason, as a matter of fact, only 14 US presidents were masons.
I don't mean to be rude, but would people kindly put up a little bit of a text that they are talking about. I am discussing issues with several people in here so I don't know what you are referring to madam.
Ya know, my boss is belongs to the Knights of Columbus, and I know many others. We all honor each others Fraternities for the good they do. There may be some "Interservice" rivalry, but I have never known a Mason or a Knight to bad mouth the other like you and others on this thread have done to Masons.
You all could learn from the Knights
ohmygosh. That's slapping the "catholic" card down on the table. It won't work.
I have no prejudice against Catholics, and to invoke that sort of excuse seems rather childish.
Bill Clintoon was never a freemason, as a child he was in the youth group called DeMolay. That's it. Only 14 US presidents were freemasons, Gerald Ford was the last president who was a freemason.
"you are right, Clintoon was never a mason, as a matter of fact, only 14 US presidents were masons"
I guess that shoots down the "Grand Masonic/Illuminati/Trilateral theory, now, doesn't it? How many others theories of the same ilk are false?
GW Bush is a Freemason
Your ignorance of history is telling.
You guys need to get rid of your queer Priests so you can be free to attack the Freemasons.
Quite a story-one that does not need to be forgotten-or diminished by idiots that equate Masons to Nazis.
>>Your ignorance of history is telling. Perhaps you should investigate the role Freemasonry played in the slaughter of Mexican Catholics during the Mexican Revolution of the 1910s and 1920s.
Maybe your insular American Freemasonry hasn't resorted to physical violence, but it has historically used the courts to undermine the Catholic Church in America.
How do you know you aren't talking to some Knights of Columbus, LOL! There are several on this thread. I'll let you guess which ones.
GW Bush is a Freemason
>>
If he is it's the best kept secret in town, until I see it documented I will say that you are wrong. He is a member of the Skull and Bones which is documented, he being a freemason is not documented and not mentioned in any official biography. There were only 14 US presidents who were freemasons, Gerald Ford was the last.
Your stupidity is telling.
Ignorance is a condition. Stupidity is a lifestyle
Have a nice day
You guys need to get rid of your queer Priests so you can be free to attack the Freemasons.
Ouch! Well, we are trying and I do agree with you that that needs to be stopped.
Both
If you are one, you dishonor the Fraternity that I have known very honorable men to be a part of.
