Aspects of the Lefèbvre “Case” – Folha de S. Paulo, August 17, 1977
My consistent stance on civic and religious matters of all kinds, both national and international—many of which have been expressed in articles in Folha de S. Paulo over the last few years—renders my intervention in theological matters inappropriate, as such matters are more suited to a clergyman than to a layman.
34-75-77 – Folha de São Paulo, July 25, 1977
These are three significant dates in the parliamentary history of the indissolubility of marriage in Brazil: 1934, a resounding success; 1975, a defense secured by a feat of bravery; 1977, divorce!
Socialismo, Barreira ou “Water-shoot”? – “Folha de S. Paulo”, 28 de fevereiro de 1977
O “centro decisivo” brasileiro: o que é? qual sua importância? O centrista coerente não propenso as concessões, enquanto o incoerente vive de “ceder para não perder”.
The detente of Paul VI with the communist governments – The American TFP Supports Telegram to the Pope (July 7, 1977)
The perplexities caused by the policy of ‘détente’ of the Vatican as it is being practiced in the whole world.
Rome’s Communist Daily Applauds Paul VI – Folha de S. Paulo, July 16, 1977
Rome’s daily L’Unitá, the mouthpiece of the Italian Communist Party—which evidently has respectful slowness only toward Moscow—published a news commentary on the pontiff’s words, welcoming them with frank applause.
Fireworks, Not Bombs – Folha de S. Paulo, June 25, 1977
The abolition of the indissolubility of the marital bond does not mean the loss of a war, but of a battle. Yes, a battle in the terrible struggle between the Church (the authentic one, of course) and neo-paganism. A lost battle can be the vigil of a battle won. And a war can be won only in this state of mind.
Jimmy and Chivalry – Folha de S. Paulo, June 9, 1977
Abortion stands in stark contradiction to respect for human rights. It summarily attacks life, the basic right whose possession makes all others possible. It affects the weak par excellence, that is, poor beings in their mothers’ wombs, who are therefore unable to mount even the most basic defense on their own behalf.
“No, No, No!” – Folha de S. Paulo, May 28, 1977
Yet any Catechism student knows that, individually, a bishop can fall into heresy and, therefore, be a communist. Moreover, any person moderately informed about Church history knows of numerous cases—I insist: “numerous”—of bishops who have fallen into heresy over the centuries.
But the CNBB Did Not Want To… – Folha de S. Paulo, May 16, 1977
I do not believe the CNBB will mobilize the fervent, faithful, and combative Catholic opposition against divorce that it should awaken by having its spiritual leaders address our faithful on temporal concerns.
Tamquam ad latronem – Hass und Verfolgung
Der Kuss des Judas Heiliger des Tages 1. März 1967 von Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Eines der eindrucksvollsten, eines der schönsten Aspekte der Leidensgeschichte unseres Herrn ist die Konfrontation zwischen der Logik, der Stärke und der Erhabenheit seiner Haltung und dem widersprüchlichen und verwerflichen Charakter der gesamten Haltung seiner Widersacher. Schritt für Schritt wird dies […]
