- VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Pope Benedict XVI's papacy opens a new chapter
New beginnings: Italian cardinal to take over as secretary of state
This is the readers digest version of the article about Cardinal Bertone's appointment as
This appointment reunites Bertone with Pope Benedict XVI when he and the Pope were No 1 and No 2 at the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
His new position is the biggest appointment to date. He is 71 years old.
Cardinal Bertone gets along well, even a favorite of the Italian press.
In 2005 for talks with Cuban President Fidel Castro while in Havana.
In 2002 persuaded Zambian Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo to leave his marriage and reconcile with the pope.
In 2000 met the Fatima visionary, Carmelite Sister Lucia dos Santos and coordinated the publication of the third secret of Fatima.
Recently commented that Iraq, for example, had demonstrated that the Vatican's warnings against the war were prophetic and in regards to Lebanon Vatican officials were right to press for an immediate cease-fire and that the delay in reaching it cost many lives and much suffering.
He doesn't speak English.

This is interesting. Milingo to Dan Brown and Bertone to Sec. of State for the Vatican under his old friend and associate in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith . If I were playing chess this is positioning is setting up for a check, soon. But whose? The Third Secret of Fatima was received with skepticism by many who are closely associated with Fatima and Sister Lucia. Bertone worked with with CDF No. 1, now the Pope, on this Fatima Secret publication. So soon after Milingo's move they are are moving. Where?

Guardian Unlimited | The Guardian | Pope prepares to embrace theory of intelligent design
Let the debate begin. This debate is important. The Nicene Council of the 5th Century may pale in comparison to the decision which will eventually have to be reached. Let us pray.
Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Pope prepares to embrace theory of intelligent design: "Last week, at a conference in Rimini, Cardinal Christoph Schönborn of Austria revealed that evolution and creation had been chosen as the subjects for this year's meeting of the Pope's Schülerkreis - a group consisting mainly of his former doctoral students that has been gathering annually since the late 1970s. Apart from Cardinal Schönborn, participants at the closed-door meeting will include the president of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, Peter Schuster; the conservative ethical philosopher Robert Spaemann; and Paul Elbrich, professor of philosophy at Munich University.
Last December, a US court sparked controversy when it ruled that intelligent design should not be taught alongside evolution theory. Cardinal Schönborn said: 'The debate of recent months has undoubtedly motivated the Holy Father's choice.' But he added that in the 1960s the then Joseph Ratzinger had 'underlined emphatically the need to return to the topic of creation'."

New Left: Tocoma, Washington Guardsman is beaten. Called a "baby killer"

This is a disturbing turn of events. This happens often in Iraq as Islamo-Nihilists instill rule-of-fear in broad daylight in front of fear frozen crowds. Now this stategy is played out here. In America. What do you think?

TV Documentary Blames Darwinism for Hitler’s Nazi Ideology
By Gudrun Schultz http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2006/aug/06082903.html
FT. LAUDERDALE, Florida, August 29, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A Christian broadcasting organization has suggested evolutionary theory was the foundation of Hitler’s Nazi ideology. The claim was made in a made-for-TV documentary exploring the devastating social consequences of Darwinian evolutionary theory, reported the Christian Post on Friday.
Coral Ridge Ministries produced the documentary, entitled “Darwin’s Deadly Legacy,aired last weekend in the U.S. Among other destructive consequences of modern reliance on evolution theories, the program illustrates the influence of Darwin’s “survival of the fittest” philosophy on the genocide ideology of Hitler and the Nazis.
“We’re reaping the consequences, right now in this culture, of generations that have been taken through a public education system and taught a Darwinian view, taught that you can explain life by natural processes; and therefore, ultimately, your morality is whatever you want to make it to be. That’s really Darwin’s legacy,” Ken Ham, president and CEO of Answers in Genesis, said in the documentary.
Hitler justified the attempted extermination of the Jews on evolutionary principles of the survival of the fittest, the documentary suggests, relying on the Darwinian philosophy that superior genes naturally enable the strongest members of a species to dominate weaker genetic strains.

"Richard Weikart's outstanding book shows in sober and convincing detail how Darwinist thinkers in Germany had developed an amoral attitude to human society," says Dr. Richard Evans, Professor of Modern History, University of Cambridge, and author of "The Coming of the 
Third Reich." "This provided Hitler and the Nazis with a scientific justification for the policies they pursued once they came to power."http://www.darwintohitler.com/
Weikart explains the revolutionary impact Darwinism had on ethics and morality. He demonstrates that many leading Darwinian biologists and social thinkers in Germany believed that Darwinism overturned traditional Judeo-Christian and Enlightenment ethics, especially those pertaining to the sacredness of human life. Many of these thinkers supported moral relativism, yet simultaneously exalted evolutionary "fitness" (especially in terms of intelligence and health) as the highest arbiter of morality. Weikart concludes that Darwinism played a key role not only in the rise of eugenics, but also in euthanasia, infanticide, abortion, and racial extermination, all ultimately embraced by the Nazis.
Later I will come back and share a pronouncement by a proud Dr. Wilson in Paralandra by C.S. Lewis. Dr. Wilson is a personification of this 1930's - 1940's German evolution of Darwinism. This evolution has not finished its penetration in our current culture. I'll bet you can think of some examples. Stay tuned.
Cardinal: If Evolution is Science Rather Than Ideology Let it be Debated in Schools
by Hilary White
RIMINI, August 29, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Christoph Cardinal Schönbornhttp: has asked for a “reasoned, ideology-free” debate on the nature of the Darwinian proposition for the origins of life. He hoped that the shortcomings of Darwin's theory of evolution could one-day be discussed freely in schools. "This should be discussed in a serene manner. If a theory is scientific and not ideological, then it can be discussed freely," he said.
This is the purpose of Intelligent Design movement being realized. "If a theory is scientific and not ideological, then it can be discussed freely," Cardinal Schonborn is a true man of character for moving this important issue forward.
The site the piece comes from is worth more investigation as well. LifeSiteNews.com http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2006/aug/06082904.html

Milingo may work with 'Da Vinci Code' Author on Novel . . .
Alert RE: Milingo
Zambia: Milingo to Work with 'Da Vinci Code' Author on Novel ...
AllAfrica.com - Washington,USA
Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo, the controversial former archbishop of Lusaka is reported to have agreed to work with Dan Brown on the project, journalist Gerry O ...
The stakes are raised. The spirit world and how it works through Milingo has been ignored for a long time.
Milingo is indeed a spiritual healer, attested by so many who have remained undaunted in their friendship despite the social isolation administered by some in the Church he loves.
Those who share this love of Catholicism will have to stand and be counted before the final step is taken. The sheep and goats need to be separated. Doing so may begin a peaceful realignment of the Church with her core faith. Standing quietly by while the high priests clamor for Milingo's excommunication may allow the repeating a similar course when the Church excommunicated Martin Luther.
It is interesting that Milingo's newest activities arrived in public view on an anniversary of the Fatima Message from spirit world, July 13th. No coincidence I believe.

DC's 'Open secret': Rumsfeld wants to quit Iraq
In this age of the drive-by media I am not inclined to give credence to this "investigative" reporting by Sherwood Ross. of the Middele East Times. Why is it that I, the reader, must give so much credit to the presumption that everyone knows; implied by "open secret". Mr. Ross fails to convince me that this open secret really exists. Have you every had your palm read after a short conversation with the "Palmist" who picks up on topics raised in the conversation and expands. Mr. Ross offers no proof that he is not doing the same parlor trick. (This comment was sent to Mr. Ross. If he has a reply I will post it here as well.)
