Before anti-Catholicism had Marxist roots, but today the Wall fell-is radically liberal vocation. We live the dictatorship of political correctness that protects all minorities, from the disabled to the most remote tribe or the most unknown insect species threatened ...
And that bothers you ...?
protection only because that excludes three groups that, in return, must crush: smokers, hunters ... And Catholics!
Here you add the bull.
I'm not a hunter, but I am a smoker and a Catholic. So I decided, since I reached the faith, to demonstrate that Christian is not a synonym for moron, although I intend.
Who?
Especially a legion of former priests authors of a whole category of books, anti-Catholicism, which wash well his past before the inquisition of political correctness. Deme
names.
A mathematical ex-seminarian who always call for us to face in the media gatherings, this guy always tries to show that the mere fact of being a believer assumes that you direct an idiot.
What do you argue?
I'm Catholic, but I am not a bigot: I have many flaws and commit many sins, but I'm not an idiot, because, since he was six years old when I went to school until now, I have not stopped trying to learn.

I was not Catholic. Policy Studies in Turin and in full May 68 turned politics into religion, until I found faith.
How? Story

is why we are journalists.
Say I've always tried to explain that the reason does not exclude faith, but leads to faith. To have faith, do not give a reason, but on the contrary: it is the reason that - if you use good-faith guide you.
How?
I had an education rationalist and come to faith had to refute rationalism as an ideology, not reason. Pascal himself says: well spent is the reason that leads you to accept the mystery.
How was your interview with the Pope?
I called Navarro Valls: "Vittorio, the Holy Father wants to see you tomorrow."
Why you?
Pope read my columns in the Avvenire and liked a lot, so I chose to make his first television interview ...
What an opportunity! Television

Would you convinced Juan Pablo II?

What you asked?
Nothing about homosexuality and the marriage of priests ... I asked about the root from which everything else depends: faith.

Not bad: ask the Pope if you believe.

reactionary and arbitrary.
Yes, because without faith it is normal for people to rebel against the prohibitions of the priests as I rebelled before reaching me.
What news did the Pope?
Navarro called me and told me he had finally decided to cancel the interview and sang a Te Deum relieved. After he called me "for inviting me to pizza" and brought a plastic bag full of papers. It was Pope's answers my questions in your own handwriting: Crossing the Threshold of Hope. "

The Ratzinger Report in 1985, with Cardinal Ratzinger, then prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith was hard for me to convince him to accept. That was an information book and John Paul II was in meditation.

Ratzinger was not popular then.

The treasure in the mud
What about pedophilia in the Church, wonder, and his material wealth and spiritual misery? And Messori argues: "To believe in something, everybody believes, belief in God is not so easy and believe in Jesus Christ is more difficult, but believe in the Church, believe in priests ... It is almost impossible! The Church is an ambiguous reality is a treasure within a clay pot. What counts is not what we see: the rough mud bowl, but the treasure inside, which are the sacraments. But if you believe in reincarnation, you know that Christ Church wished to entrust his men to return, but are just that-men-and the human and visible part of the Church is not at all exciting. "
