mediocrewhiteboy6988 is going to let you in on a little secret, McCartney: Blackbird has meaning because it's about everyone and is "non-racial." It's right there in the title and if every song is not about me I am going to be very unhappy ☹️
"regardless of how you composed it" 🍒🏆

WONKA Un film di Paul King
✔️ 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐑𝐀 𝐐𝐔𝐈 ▶ https://t.co/lGLfbqa3wv
:: Trama Wonka ::
Il giovane Willy Wonka arriva in città con pochi denari e una tavoletta di cioccolata nel cilindro. Il suo sogno è aprire una grande cioccolateria nella piazza in cui però coesistono già tre mastri cioccolatai che fanno cartello fra di loro e non ammettono un nuovo concorrente. Willy soggiorna presso una locanda la cui proprietaria gli fa firmare un contratto pieno di clausole, dove soggiornano anche altri malcapitati ingannati allo stesso modo in epoche diverse. Al gruppetto non resta che unire le forze e tenersi stretti i propri sogni, sperando un giorno di realizzarli tutti. Timothée Chalamet, nei panni di Willy, salta e balla come un pupazzetto da teatrino vittoriano, e canta canzoni scritte apposta per quello che è a tutti gli effetti un musical. E a proposito di ooompa loompa, qui ce n'è uno solo ma vale per cento, perché ha l'umorismo e l'autoironia di Hugh Grant. Il film di King irriterà il pubblico o lo incanterà a seconda di quale punto di vista sceglierà di assumere: quello purista e filologico, che vorrebbe riconosciuta l'originalità e la capacità sovversiva (e liberatoria) di Dahl, o quello disposto a farsi intrattenere da due ore di magia, colore, scenografie mirabolanti e (è il caso di dirlo) zuccherose, più ambiziosi numeri musicali. Di certo in entrambi i casi si uscirà di sala canticchiando "oompa, loompa, doompety doo", incapaci di togliersi dal cervello quel motivetto demenziale.
Un film (in Italiano anche pellicola) è una serie di immagini che, dopo essere state registrate su uno o più supporti cinematografici e una volta proiettate su uno schermo, creano l'illusione di un'immagine in movimento.[1] Questa illusione ottica permette a colui che guarda lo schermo, nonostante siano diverse immagini che scorrono in rapida successione, di percepire un movimento continuo.
Il processo di produzione cinematografica viene considerato ad oggi sia come arte che come un settore industriale. Un film viene materialmente creato in diversi metodi: riprendendo una scena con una macchina da presa, oppure fotografando diversi disegni o modelli in miniatura utilizzando le tecniche tradizionali dell'animazione, oppure ancora utilizzando tecnologie moderne come la CGI e l'animazione al computer, o infine grazie ad una combinazione di queste tecniche.
L'immagine in movimento può eventualmente essere accompagnata dal suono. In tale caso il suono può essere registrato sul supporto cinematografico, assieme all'immagine, oppure può essere registrato, separatamente dall'immagine, su uno o più supporti fonografici.
Con la parola cinema (abbreviazione del termine inglese cinematography, "cinematografia") ci si è spesso normalmente riferiti all'attività di produzione dei film o all'arte a cui si riferisce. Ad oggi con questo termine si definisce l'arte di stimolare delle esperienze per comunicare idee, storie, percezioni, sensazioni, il bello o l'atmosfera attraverso la registrazione o il movimento programmato di immagini insieme ad altre stimolazioni sensoriali.[2]
In origine i film venivano registrati su pellicole di materiale plastico attraverso un processo fotochimico che poi, grazie ad un proiettore, si rendevano visibili su un grande schermo. Attualmente i film sono spesso concepiti in formato digitale attraverso tutto l'intero processo di produzione, distribuzione e proiezione.
Il film è un artefatto culturale creato da una specifica cultura, riflettendola e, al tempo stesso, influenzandola. È per questo motivo che il film viene considerato come un'importante forma d'arte, una fonte di intrattenimento popolare ed un potente mezzo per educare (o indottrinare) la popolazione. Il fatto che sia fruibile attraverso la vista rende questa forma d'arte una potente forma di comunicazione universale. Alcuni film sono diventati popolari in tutto il mondo grazie all'uso del doppiaggio o dei sottotitoli per tradurre i dialoghi del film stesso in lingue diverse da quella (o quelle) utilizzata nella sua produzione.
Le singole immagini che formano il film sono chiamate "fotogrammi". Durante la proiezione delle tradizionali pellicole di celluloide, un otturatore rotante muove la pellicola per posizionare ogni fotogramma nella posizione giusta per essere proiettato. Durante il processo, fra un frammento e l'altro vengono creati degli intervalli scuri, di cui però lo spettatore non nota la loro presenza per via del cosiddetto effetto della persistenza della visione: per un breve periodo di tempo l'immagine permane a livello della retina. La percezione del movimento è dovuta ad un effetto psicologico definito come "fenomeno Phi".

End :
❏ STREAMING MEDIA ❏ Streaming media is multimedia that is constantly received by and presented to an end-user while being deliveEspejo, espejo by a provider. The verb to stream refers to the process of delivering or obtaining media in this manner.[clarification needed] Streaming refers to the delivery method of the medium, rather than the medium itself. Distinguishing delivery method krom the media distributed applies specifically to telecommunications networks, as most of the delivery systems are either inherently streaming (e.g. radio, television, streaming apps) or inherently non-streaming (e.g. books, video cassettes, audio CDs). There are challenges with streaming content on the Internet. For example, users whose Internet connection lacks sufficient bandwidth may experience stops, lags, or slow buffering of the content. And users lacking compatible hardware or software systems may be unable to stream certain content. Live streaming is the delivery of Internet content in real-time much as live television broadcasts content over the airwaves via a television signal. Live internet streaming requires a form of source media (e.g. a video camera, an audio interface, screen capture software), an encoder to digitize the content, a media publisher, and a content delivery network to distribute and deliver the content. Live streaming does not need to be recorded at the origination point, although it krequently is. Streaming is an alternative to file downloading, a process in which the end-user obtains the entire file for the content before watching or listening to it. Through streaming, an end-user can use their media player to start playing digital video or digital audio content before the entire file has been transmitted. The term “streaming media” can apply to media other than video and audio, such as live closed captioning, ticker tape, and real-time text, which are all consideEspejo, espejo “streaming text”.
❏ COPYRIGHT CONTENT ❏ Copyright is a type of intellectual property that gives its owner the exclusive right to make copies of a creative work, usually for a limited time. The creative work may be in a literary, artistic, educational, or musical form. Copyright is intended to protect the original expression of an idea in the form of a creative work, but not the idea itself. A copyright is subject to limitations based on public interest considerations, such as the fair use doctrine in the United States. Some jurisdictions require “fixing” copyrighted works in a tangible form. It is often shaEspejo, espejo among multiple authors, each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work, and who are commonly referEspejo, espejo to as rights holders.[citation needed] These rights krequently include reproduction, control over derivative works, distribution, public performance, and moral rights such as attribution. Copyrights can be granted by public law and are in that case consideEspejo, espejo “territorial rights”. This means that copyrights granted by the law of a certain state, do not extend beyond the territory of that specific jurisdiction. Copyrights of this type vary by country; many countries, and sometimes a large group of countries, have made agree Wonkats with other countries on procedures applicable when works “cross” national borders or national rights are inconsistent. Typically, the public law duration of a copyright expires 50 to 100 years after Wonka dies, depending on the jurisdiction. Some countries require certain copyright formalities to establishing copyright, others recognize copyright in any completed work, without a formal registration. It is widely believed that copyrights are a must to foster cultural diversity and creativity. However, Parc argues that contrary to prevailing beliefs, imitation and copying do not restrict cultural creativity or diversity but in fact support them further. This argu Wonkat has been supported by many examples such as Millet and Van Gogh, Picasso, Manet, and Monet, etc.
Definition and definition of Film / Film While the players who play a role in the Film are referred to as actors ( Wonka) or actresses (wo Wonka). There is also the term extras that are used as minor characters with few roles in the Film. This differs from the main actors, who have larger and more roles. As an actor and actress, good acting talent must be required that corresponds to the subject of the Film in which he plays the leading role. In certain scenes, the role of the actor can be replaced by a stunt man or a stunt man. The existence of a stuntman is important to replace the actors who play difficult and extreme scenes that are usually found in action-action Films. Movies can also be used to deliver certain messages from the Filmmaker. Some industries also use Film to convey and represent their symbols and culture. Filmmaking is also a form of expression, thoughts, ideas, concepts, feelings and moods of a person that are visualized in the Film. The Film itself is mostly fictional, though some are based on actual stories or on a true story. There are also docu Wonkataries with original and real images or biographical Films that tell the story of a character. There are many other popular genre Films, from action Films, horror Films, comedy Films, romantic Films, fantasy Films, thriller Films, drama Films, science fiction Films, crime Films, docu Wonkataries and others. This is some information about the definition of Film or Film. The information has been cited from various sources and references. Hope it can be useful.

ARE PEOPLE STILL GENTILES AFTER ENTERING CHRIST BY FAITH?
Answer: No. And here is why.
First, we become a new creature in Christ.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." II Corinthians 5:17 NKJV
Second, we do not graft into the Levitical priesthood of Moses, but into the Melchizadek ((מלכּי־צדק = Mlky-Sdq = Melkiy Sadeq [pronounced Mel-keh Sah-dek]) Regal Priesthood of our New Covenant Messiah. (See Hebrews chapter 7).
It is from within this "better" Covenant and Regal Priesthood globally (not just circumferenced by the small land of Judea), we Messianist will oversee and judge the twelve tribes of Israel according to the Holy Bible.
Hebrews 7:11-12, "If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law (torah),) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec (Melkiy Sadeq), and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law (torah)."
Matthew 19:28, "And Jesus (his Hebrew full name is Yahwashag) said unto them, Verily I say to you, That you which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
Third, the grafting of us into the root and stock of the bodily tree of Judah, mentioned by Paul, is directed to Gentiles before entering Christ. Who, after grafted, do replace the branches of Jews, Judah's, or Israeli body who were "broken off" the Olive tree (from God), allegory, from Romans 11:17. This distinction as being "grafted" or formerly foreign, afterward disappears. This is because it becomes, they become, the same union to the root of Biblical holiness from God and its monotheism, which replace in us, just like the good standing Old Covenant Jews, it replaces in us the unholy sin, idolatry, polytheism, atheism, etc.
"For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches." Romans 11:16 NKJV.
Romans 8:23, "And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit"
"Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we would be a type of firstfruits of His creatures." James 1:18 NKJV.
Fourth, as it gets into Hebrew roots and word meanings that define us and our identity in Christ (our Hebrew Messiah).
We Judeo-Christians (Messianists) arise from Christ (the Messiah) and therefore from the tribe of Judah.
See Hebrews 7:14, "For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood."
The Hebraic English term "Judah" comes from the Hebrew word יהוּדה = Yhwdh= Yahwadah, which means celebrating Yahwah from following Yahwah.
The English term "LORD" in the English Holy Bible often is used to overlay and represent the underlying Hebrew word יהוה = Yhwh= Yahwah.
The term "Jew" (2 Kings 16:6) comes from the Hebrew word: יהוּדי =Yhwdy = Yahwadiy (pronounced Yah-wah-dey), meaning one of the Yahwah following celebrants, or a follower of Yahwah (Psalm 68:4), from the tribe of and member of Judah (Yahwadah).
Yes, we Judeo-Christians (Judeo = of Judah Christians [ Messianists]) are the tribe of Judah today having entered the New Covenant as prophesied.
See Hebrews 8:8-9, "For finding fault with them, he said, Behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, says the Lord." Jeremiah 31:31.

❏ SUPPORTI IN STREAMING ❏
I media in streaming sono contenuti multimediali che vengono costantemente ricevuti e presentati a un utente finale mentre vengono forniti da un provider. Il verbo trasmettere in streaming si riferisce al processo di consegna o ottenimento di media in questo modo. [chiarimento necessario] Lo streaming si riferisce al metodo di consegna del mezzo, piuttosto che al mezzo stesso. Il metodo di distribuzione diverso dai media distribuiti si applica specificamente alle reti di telecomunicazioni, poiché la maggior parte dei sistemi di distribuzione sono intrinsecamente in streaming (ad es. radio, televisione, app di streaming) o intrinsecamente non in streaming (ad es. libri, videocassette, CD audio). Ci sono sfide con lo streaming di contenuti su Internet. Ad esempio, gli utenti la cui connessione Internet non dispone di una larghezza di banda sufficiente potrebbero riscontrare interruzioni, ritardi o rallentamento del buffering del contenuto. E gli utenti privi di sistemi hardware o software compatibili potrebbero non essere in grado di riprodurre in streaming determinati contenuti.
Lo streaming live è la consegna di contenuti Internet in tempo reale, proprio come la televisione in diretta trasmette contenuti sulle onde radio tramite un segnale televisivo. Lo streaming in diretta su Internet richiede una forma di supporto sorgente (ad esempio una videocamera, un'interfaccia audio, un software di cattura dello schermo), un codificatore per digitalizzare il contenuto, un editore multimediale e una rete di distribuzione del contenuto per distribuire e distribuire il contenuto. Lo streaming live non ha bisogno di essere registrato nel punto di origine, anche se spesso lo è.
Lo streaming è un'alternativa al download di file, un processo in cui l'utente finale ottiene l'intero file per il contenuto prima di guardarlo o ascoltarlo. Attraverso lo streaming, un utente finale può utilizzare il proprio lettore multimediale per avviare la riproduzione di video digitali o contenuti audio digitali prima che l'intero file sia stato trasmesso. Il termine “streaming media” può essere applicato a media diversi da video e audio, come sottotitoli dal vivo, nastri ticker e testo in tempo reale, che sono tutti considerati “streaming text”.
❏ CONTENUTI COPYRIGHT ❏
Il diritto d'autore è un tipo di proprietà intellettuale che conferisce al suo proprietario il diritto esclusivo di fare copie di un'opera creativa, di solito per un periodo di tempo limitato.[1][2][3][4][5] Il lavoro creativo può essere in una forma letteraria, artistica, educativa o musicale. Il diritto d'autore ha lo scopo di proteggere l'espressione originale di un'idea nella forma di un'opera creativa, ma non l'idea stessa.[6][7][8] Un diritto d'autore è soggetto a limitazioni basate su considerazioni di interesse pubblico, come la dottrina del fair use negli Stati Uniti.
Alcune giurisdizioni richiedono la “riparazione” di opere protette da copyright in una forma tangibile. Spesso è shaCorro date tra più autori, ognuno dei quali detiene una serie di diritti per l'uso o la licenza dell'opera, e che sono comunemente riferiti a Corro date come titolari dei diritti.[citazione necessaria][9][10][11] [12] Questi diritti includono spesso la riproduzione, il controllo su opere derivate, la distribuzione, l'esecuzione pubblica e diritti morali come l'attribuzione.[13]
I diritti d'autore possono essere concessi dal diritto pubblico e sono in tal caso considerati Con chi viaggi “diritti territoriali”. Ciò significa che i diritti d'autore concessi dalla legge di un determinato stato non si estendono oltre il territorio di quella specifica giurisdizione. I diritti d'autore di questo tipo variano in base al paese; molti paesi, e talvolta un grande gruppo di paesi, hanno stipulato accordi con altri paesi sulle procedure applicabili quando i lavori “attraversano” i confini nazionali o i diritti nazionali sono incoerenti.[14]
In genere, la durata di diritto pubblico di un diritto d'autore scade da 50 a 100 anni dopo la morte del creatore, a seconda della giurisdizione. Alcuni paesi richiedono determinate formalità sul diritto d'autore[5] per stabilire il diritto d'autore, altri riconoscono il diritto d'autore in qualsiasi opera completata, senza una registrazione formale.
È opinione diffusa che i diritti d'autore siano un must per promuovere la diversità culturale e la creatività. Tuttavia, Parc sostiene che contrariamente alle cCon chi viaggienze prevalenti, l'imitazione e la copia non limitano la creatività o la diversità culturale, ma in realtà le supportano ulteriormente. Questa argomentazione è stata supportata da molti esempi come Millet e Van Gogh, Picasso, Manet e Monet, ecc.[15]
❏ BENI DI SERVIZI ❏
Il credito (dal latino credit, “(egli/ella) crede”) è il trust che consente a una parte di fornire denaro o risorse a un'altra parte in cui la seconda parte non rimborsa immediatamente la prima parte (generando così un debito), ma promette di rimborsare o restituire tali risorse (o altri materiali di pari valore) in un secondo momento.[1] In altre parole, il credito è un metodo per rendere la reciprocità formale, legalmente vincolante ed estensibile a un ampio gruppo di persone non imparentate.
Le risorse fornite possono essere finanziarie (es. concessione di un prestito), oppure possono consistere in beni o servizi (es. credito al consumo). Il credito comprende qualsiasi forma di pagamento differito.[2] Il credito è concesso da un creditore, noto anche come prestatore, a un debitore, noto anche come mutuatario.

Lo streaming live non ha bisogno di essere registrato nel punto di origine, anche se spesso lo è.
Lo streaming è un'alternativa al download di file, un processo in cui l'utente finale ottiene l'intero file per il contenuto prima di guardarlo o ascoltarlo. Attraverso lo streaming, un utente finale può utilizzare il proprio lettore multimediale per avviare la riproduzione di video digitali o contenuti audio digitali prima che l'intero file sia stato trasmesso. Il termine “streaming media” può essere applicato a media diversi da video e audio, come sottotitoli dal vivo, nastri ticker e testo in tempo reale, che sono tutti considerati “streaming text”.

La Marche des rois - Chant trad. provençale repris par Bizet dans L'Arlésienne (partition,sheet music)
La Marche des rois - Chant trad. provençale repris x Bizet dans L'Arlésienne (partition,sheet music) Easy Piano Solo arr.
https://youtu.be/KsDBOdWDRwQ
The March of the Kings or The March of the Three Kings or, in Provençal, La Marcho di Rèi is a popular Christmas carol of Provençal origin celebrating Epiphany and the Three Kings. Its revival by Georges Bizet for his Arlésienne popularized the theme. The precise origins of both the tune and the lyrics are uncertain and debated. The words are regularly attributed to Joseph-François Domergue (1691-1728), priest-dean of Aramon, in the Gard, from 1724 to 1728, whose name appears on the first manuscript copy dated 1742 and kept at the library of Avignon. The text is published in the Compendium of Provençal and Francois Spiritual Songs engraved by Sieur Hue published in 1759. Subsequently, the work was included in the various editions of the Provençal Christmas collection by the poet and composer of the 17th century Nicolas Saboly (1614-1675) to which it has often — and erroneously — been attributedNote. According to the 1742 document, the song uses the air of a Marche de Turenne1. This mention corresponds to the established practice of noëlistes consisting in placing their texts on “known” French songs spread by the printing press. One hypothesis is that this Marche de Turenne would be a military march dating back to the 17th century, in honor of the victories of Marshal de Turenne, which some authors wanted to attribute to Lully, although no document corroborates this attribution. An Avignon tradition rather dates the Marche de Turenne back to the 15th century, at the time of King René (1409-1480) while certain authors from the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century leaned towards a reference to Raymond de Turenne (1352 -1413), known as Le Fléau de Provence, grandnephew of Pope Clement VI and nephew of Pope Gregory XI. In the 21st century, several American researchers postulate that the March of the Kings has a medieval origin dating back to the 13th century; it could then be one of the oldest Christmas carols listed with Veni redemptor gentium, and perhaps the first entirely composed in the vernacular language, and not in Latin. According to research carried out by the scholar Stéphen d'Arve at the end of the 19th century, the only known score is that of Étienne-Paul Charbonnier (1793-1872), organist at the cathedral of Aix-en-Provence , who — perhaps taking it from the chain of its predecessors — had reconstructed it from memory, modifying its orchestration as new instruments were introduced. Henri Maréchal, an inspector of the Conservatoires de France who did research at the request of Frédéric Mistral, thought, for his part, that 'La Marcha dei Rèis' must have been composed by the Abbé Domergue himself. Covers and adaptations The March of the Kings is one of the themes of the overture to L'Arlésienne (1872), incidental music composed by Georges Bizet for a drama on a Provençal subject by Alphonse Daudet. According to the musicologist Joseph Clamon, Bizet was able to find the melody of this march in a book published in 1864. After the failure of the drama, Bizet drew from incidental music a suite for orchestra (Suite no 1) which met with immediate success. In 1879, four years after the composer's death, his friend Ernest Guiraud produced a second suite (Suite no 2) in which the March of the Kings is taken up in canon in the last part of the revised work. Certain passages are also found in Edmond Audran's operetta Gillette de Narbonne, created in 188219. The words of a song 'M'sieu d'Turenne', which can be sung to the tune of the March of the Kings, are due to Léon Durocher (1862-1918). The March of the Kings has become a traditional French song and one of the most common Christmas carols in the repertoire of French-speaking choirs. It has had several covers by performers such as Tino Rossi, Les Quatre Barbus, Marie Michèle Desrosiers or, in English, Robert Merrill. The piece has been adapted many times, notably by the organist Pierre Cochereau through an improvised toccata in 1973 for the Suite à la Française on popular themes. Read the full article

Deific/Major Familiars and the Table of Offers
As stated before, the Deific Familiar is the first Familiar one has to approach. It corresponds to the patron God or Goddess of the contemporary practitioners, although in the past the concept of “Divinity” in a non-christian sense got lost with the end of real paganism. From then on, these entities were addressed as more powerful Spirits.
A BIT OF HISTORY
In the middle ages and in the first modern era, the Deific/Major Familiar appeared as the head of the Procession of the Dominae Nocturnae (Signore della Notte, Ladies of the Night).
All throughout the Europe of this period, we always find the same theme, although called with different names: there’s a figure, the Deific Familiar, that procedes with a following of Spirits (usually women and associated with Fairies) and human Souls (the so called Witches, that evidently were non other than individuals that were having an extracorporeal experience) passing from house to house.
Those who wanted to have the favors of said Procession and of the Deific Familiar that was the head of it, would completely clean the house, putting everything in order, making the beds, etc. Then they proceded to prepare the table for these Spiritual guests, leaving food and drinks on the kitchen table for the night.
During the night, the Procession would enter the house, stopping to eat, drink, dance and sing and the Deific Familiar, with his/her wand, would have blessed the same food: the Procession could only eat the Spiritual aspect of the food, filling the Material aspect with prosperity and many other virtues.
In the morning, the blessed food was supposed to be eaten and the left overs preserved.
According to some scholars, the theme of the Procession of the Dominae Nocturnae has its origin in the theme of the Wild Hunt or the Procession of the Dead.
The Wild Hunt was the Procession of Spirits of those who fell honorably in battle, according to the Viking beliefs, the Einhejar, together with the Valkyries, guided by Wotan (Odin), and it was said that it could be possible to see it in some occasion in the battlefield.
This theme will slightly change in the christian epoque, becoming the Procession of the Dead, a procession of Spirits of those who died a violent death, suicides, non baptized children and people who weren’t evil enough to deserve eternal damnation in hell, but that could not access Paradise either (the concept of Purgatory was developed from here). This belief, even if born in the germanic/norse world, will spread throughout Europe, thanks to the extensive preaching of the christian priests, that, while trying to eradicate said beliefs in the population, obtained the opposite effect.
This theme would then be changed and adapted by every culture: Wotan was substituted with local figures, first among all, Hellequin (from “ Helle König”, the King of Hell, from which Dante developed the figure of Alichino, that later became the famous figure of Arlecchino, Harlequin).
From the initial Wild Hunt, two different Processions would be developed:
Procession of the Dead, with a male like Hellequin as the head
Procession of the Dominae Nocturnae, with a female like Diana or Aradia as the head. This theme also received the influence of the beliefs on Fairies. In numerous cases the figure head of the Dominae Nocturnae is also the head of the Fairies (Doamna Zinelor in Romania, the Fata Maggiore in Sicily, the Queen of Elphame in Great Britain).
This introduction is useful to understand how to choose our Deific Familiar. This Familiar was different in each region, although the european theme was the same. It depended on local latent beliefs, while the myth of the Procession was pan-european, thanks to the christian priests.
CHOOSING OUR FAMILIAR
Said choice must be thoughtful; we’re linking ourselves with a Spirit, a link that will probably last for all our lives. It cannot be taken lightly.
With this premise, the first thing to do is to seek documents of Witch trials in our area. Usually, the most useful ones are the ones before the 1550s, because around this moment in when the Church starts to associate Witchcraft with the Devil, so we risk to find trials that describe Satan as the head of the Procession, instead of other Spirits, like Diana, Aradia, la Signora del Gioco (Lady of the Game), and others. Said trials are completely useless for our ends.
Analizing these trials and the local folklore (like reading books of popular legends about Witches) we need to pay attention to:
the names of the heads of the Witches
the names of the heads of the Fairies
the names of the heads of the Wild Hunt/Procession of the Dead
the names of other figures deriving from pre-christian divinities present in the folklore
The facebook page “Gli Dei della Stregoneria Italiana” already did good part of the job. Of course this work isn’t exhaustive and it’s good practice to try and integrate it with a personal research, but it’s a good way to start.
[Translator note: I will list the names and the regions to help the non italian speakers that benefit from these translations]
Sicily: the Regina delle Fate (Queen of the Fairies), also called Savia Sibilla, Signora Greca, Signora Grazia, Donna Inguanto, Mandotta and Donna Zabella; the Re delle Fate (King of the Fairies) also called Re Cozzo or Re Cucco.
Sardinia: Diana (the sardinian Fate were called Janas); Maimone also called Maimulu and Mamuthone (probably derived from Dioniso Mainoles. Aradia (also called Mama Erodas, Arada, Araja or Rejusta) was also seen as the patron of the Janas.
Calabria: in this folklore, the table were prepared for the Fatae, that the local albanian minority also called Drekezit o Fiatazit. There are also the figures of the Sibilla Cumana, of the local Befana called Papparutu or Pacciarutu and a group of local healers called Cerauli that had St. Paul (substitution to Eracle) as their patron.
Apulia: the Patrona de la Cheise, figure similar to the Donne di Fori/Donne di Fuori/Patruni di Casa/Patruni di Luocu Siciliane. One salutes her saying:”Bon ggiorne a la Patrona de la Cheise, u mmaile ca esce e un bbeine ca triese” (”Good morning to the Patrona de la Cheise, an evil that goes away and a blessing that enters”). To protect yourself from the apulian Streghe, the Masciare, the locals said “Driana meste ca va pela vì” (”Master Diana that travels the roads”). The local paganism of the V sec. a.C. consists in the cult of a divinity of the Sun (Mitra or Apollo?) and a divinity of the Moon (Diana?). Dioniso is the god linked to the Tarantismo, substituted by St. Paul in later times.
Basilicata: the Madonna Nera di Viggiano, probably derived from Persefone, has a black face and wonders between the fields of wheat and the cattle, it was a dark divinity from the shadows of the earth’s womb, the farmers’ Persefone, an infernal goddess. We also find prayers to the Santo Sole (Saint Sun), probably a remainder of Apollo or Helios.
Molise: the cult of St. Cosma and St. Damiano comes from the cult of the Dioscuri and in part from the cult of Priapo. This region shares with Campania the figure of the Ianare, the local Streghe, and as a result of Diana that gives the name to these Streghe.
Campania: Diana gives the name to the local Streghe, the Ianare/Janare and it’s linked to the cult of the Noce di Benevento (the Walnut tree of Benevento), together with Godan (Odin) and Iside (Isis). The folklore mentions other gods: the Zucculara (Hekate), Cupindo (Cupido), Erodiade (Aradia) and the Sepilla la bella (the Sibilla Cumana).
Lazio: Aradia lead the Streghe to Rome and gathered them together the day of St. John, near the homonym basilica. We also read about the Meridiana or Marianna, a demon of noonday, probably deriving from Diana. Cupiddo (Cupid) was also worshipped.
Abruzzo: this region shares with Umbria and Marche the cult of the Sibilla Appenninica (also called the Sibilla Picena or the Sibilla di Norcia); probably derived from the cult of Cibele, Cupra, Nortia or Venere; others think this figure was the Sibilla of the god Pico. The goddess Angizia in the origin of the figure of St. Domenico di Cocullo. Some of the other cults are the goddess Ancharia and Ercole Curino, the goddess Maia, the god Hermes, the Pasqua Pefanij or Bboffe, a feminine figure linked to Epiphany.
Tuscany: the tuscanian Befana, has the same origin of the venetian Redodesa; the Fantasma, a figure linked to Hekate; the Maga Accina on mt. Amiata, linked to the Sibilla Appenninica. The belief in Diana and Aradia is documented by the archbishop Sant’Antonino in the XV sec d.C., long before Leland.
Emilia-Romagna: the goddess head of the Streghe is called the Domina Cursus and Sapiente Sibilla. Other pagan figures of the local folklore are: the Borda, deriving from Borvo/Bormo a celtic god that presides the thermal and spring waters; the Fata was corresponding to the germanic Perchta, seen as a nice old lady, very clean and with a welcoming attitude.
Again, it is vital that you make your own research by looking up the names of these divinities and accessing the documents of the trials.
Once obtained these names, starting from the region(s) that we choose as a point of reference and the call that we feel towards a specific divinity, we can operate the decision of our Deific Familiar.
THE TAVOLO DELLE OFFERTE
Now that we have chosen our Deific/Major Familiar, we can start with the Tavolo delle Offerte (the Table of Offerings), a table spread with food and drinks for our Familiar and their Procession.
Here is how it goes:
Thoroughly clean the house (or at least the room in which you’ll operate this ritual, usually the kitchen).
Set the table (if we’re forced to work in other rooms, an altar will suffice) with a clean tablecloth, table napkins, cutlery, dishes, glasses, a bottle of wine or another drink of choice and the following meals (first course, second course, side dish, dessert or fruit). You’ll also need one or more chairs, so that our guests can seat.
Recite a prayer to manifest that we’re leaving this offering to our Deific Familiar and its following, inviting them inside, allowing them to dance, eat, sing and drink inside our house and asking them to consume our food and to bless it after they consumed its Spiritual aspect, and to cast their blessing upon us, our house and to its inhabitants.
We can light some incense and leave some musical instruments as a further offer. Adding candles and tapers that represent our Deific Familiar, statues or images of them, flowers and so on, it’s also acceptable. These are contemporary additions, but the banquet is the necessary base of the offering.
In the morning, we will approach the table, thank the Deific Familiar and we’ll eat the blessed food. Upon finishing the meal, we’ll thank the Deific Familiar once more, we’ll tell them goodbye and procede to clean up.
WHEN AND HOW OFTEN LEAVE THE OFFER?
The foundation of the relationship with a Familiar Spirit is to nurture them, in order to fuel the link between ourselves and the Spirit. In the past, the Strega fed their Familiar once a day. In this age, some people make offering everyday, others a few times a week or even once a week. In my opinion [TN: the author’s opinion] we should make an offer at least once a week.

10 Facts about Rome’s Piazza Venezia and the Vittoriano
There’s no way to miss the hustle and bustle of Rome’s largest round-a-bout: the Piazza Venezia. On one side you can look down Rome’s longest street, the Via del Corso to the ancient northern gates of the city. From another angle, the ruins of the Imperial Forums lead the way to the Colosseum. Take a different road and you’ll end up in the Jewish Ghetto, on your way to Rome’s Trastevere neighborhood and last but not least, towering over the piazza, is the un-missable marble monument: Il Vittoriano. The four major roads of Rome meet in the piazza, so take one and explore the city but before you go, here are 10 facts about piazza Venezia!
1 The Vittoriano (i.e. The Wedding Cake) The most notable monument in the piazza derives from the name of Italy’s first king, Victorio Emanuele II of Savoy to whom it is dedicated. Construction started in 1885, 4 years after his death and it was fully completed in 1925 under Mussolini. Another name is “l’Altare della Patria” or “Altar of the Fatherland” as the monument was built to celebrate Italian unification and the birth of Italy as a nation at the end of the 19th century. It also has two less prestigious nicknames: “The wedding cake” and also “The typewriter.” Most Romans aren’t a fan of the monument which they say doesn’t blend in with the rest of the city skyline.
2 The Horse. Who’s hungry? The centerpiece of the Vittoriano is the enormous bronze equestrian statue of the first king himself. From your view at ground level, the horse might not look that big but at 10 meters long and 12 meters tall, it’s actually gigantic – big enough to comfortably host a dinner inside! Which is exactly what the workers enjoyed after the statue was completed. Twenty people comfortably posed for a photo around long table set up for pastries and vermouth inside the horses belly.
3 The eternal fire and the tomb of the unknown soldier The monument itself is constructed to celebrate the unification of Italy and to demonstrate the power of Rome as a capital. Every piece of art you can see is an important symbol of the fatherland. Over the steps in the center stand the actual “Altar of the fatherland”, containing the tomb of “The unknown soldier”, a symbolic reminder of all the unidentified deaths of WWI. In front of the altar’s relief, visitors can see the statue of the goddess Roma with the secret eternal flame, always guarded by soldiers.
4 Palazzo Venezia This building is one of the oldest Renaissance buildings in Rome, constructed between 1455 and 1464. The Palace, built by a Venetian cardinal (why Piazza Venezia takes its name) who later became Pope Paul II was used as a papal residence, embassy of the Republic of Venice and later headquarters for the Italian government. Benito Mussolini, “Il duce,” had his office inside and from the palace’s balcony overlooking the square he shouted his speeches to the crowds below. Be sure to peek inside where you could enjoy the garden courtyard for a relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of the piazza.
5 Michelangelo’s House Opposite the Palazzo Venezia is an insurance building, the Palazzo delle Assicurazioni Generali, finished in 1906 to mirror the older Palazzo Venezia. Unifying the squares “look” was more important than preserving its history. One of the buildings that was torn down was the house where Michelangelo Buonarroti lived and died, commemorated by a plaque on the side facing the Vittoriano.
6 Palazzo Bonaparte On the north end where Piazza Venezia meets Via del Corso is a 17th century palace, once the property of Napoleon’s family. Napoleon’s mother Letizia Bonaparte lived the last 18 years of her life here and the palace is named after her. She spent most of her time on the first-floor loggia, (note the famous balcony on the corner) watching the busy streets of Rome.
7 The Via del Corso The street was named for the 15th century “corsa dei barberi” or “race of the barbarians” – a tradition at Carnival of racing horses down the 1.5 kilometer street but it’s origins date back to ancient Rome. Today, Rome’s longest, straightest street is best known for shopping.
8 Trajan’s Column Built by Emperor Trajan in 113AD this triumphal column commemorated Trajan’s victory over the Dacians and its spiral bas relief tells the story of the entire campaign Rome held against the country that would ultimately take its name: Romania. But don’t expect to see a statue of the emperor himself atop his own monument. In 1587 Pope Sixtus V set one of Rome’s patron saints there instead: St. Peter.
9 What lies beneath The Ancient Romans certainly weren’t the oldest thing inhabiting the Capitoline Hill. During the excavations to create the Vittorio Emanuele monument an entire skeleton of a straight tusked elephant from the ice age was unearthed!
10 And the view from above Rome boasts a number of impressive views but few match the ones from the top of Il Vittoriano. An elevator was built onto the back of the monument in 2007 and now visitors can access the rooftop of the 135 meter monument for one of the finest 360 degree views of the city.

THWH S1 E2
Title: The Imago Dei
Description: We are here to humbly discuss recent events, the death of George Floyd, and how we as Christians should be reacting. What does true compassion look like? Does Jesus understand our pain? Is there an offer of change that is big enough, strong enough, to save us from hatred, abuse, racism…to save us from sin? Join us in a reflective perspective of what a biblical, hopeful response might look like.
*Due to the topic of this episode I have chosen not to provide a summary or review on this original post. Rather I have provided a (subpar,flawed) transcript of the episode.
Jinger: Hey we're Jinger and Jeremy Vuolo and this is The Hope We Hold Podcast. Jeremy: Where we have weekly conversations around our family table to share the hope of Jesus.
Jinger: These are dark days we're living in and we've been grieving as individuals, as a nation, over the events from last week and the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, MN. Jeremy and I, as we watched the video, we watched with shock and horror and sorrow and it's just too much to bear emotionally. And I know many of you are feeling the same as we should. because God has made us as people with minds, intellects and emotions and we grieve. Jesus himself wept and we weep because of the brokenness of this world.
Jeremy: Yeah to think of Jesus one of the descriptions of Christ was that he was a man of sorrows. Of all the ways he was and could have been described he was described as a man of sorrows. Here”the creator of the universe descended into the world he made and he wept”. So today we want to discuss how a Christian world view ought to shape our response to what we see going on around us. The hatred, the violence, really the effects of sin in this life.
Jinger: It's difficult but God has given us some clues about why what is happening is so painful to deal with and I think we need to start where the bible starts, at creation. And we read this in Genesis 1 26-28 "Then God said 'Let us make man in our image after our likeness. So god created man in his own image and the image of God he created him, male and female he created them and God blessed them". That's pretty amazing just to think about that, that we are made in the image of God.
Jeremy: Yeah it's what theologians have called "the imago dei" which is just the Latin phrase for the image of God.
Jinger: Mm yeah and it gives us dignity to every single person which is why what we witness this last week was so horrific.
Jeremy: Yeah.
Jinger: Yeah so the image of God on man becomes even more incredible when we understand just how majestic and holy and powerful and beautiful God is. For him to care enough about us to make us in his image is truly remarkable.
Jeremy: Yeah it is and it's exactly what king David felt when he wrote Pslams 8. He's writing this Pslams and it's set in the evening time when David, without the modern city lights to fade the sky, was staring into the sky and he sees the majesty of the celestial beings, the stars. And in Pslams 8 King David just writes, astounded about the beauty and glory of God, he says "Oh Lord, our Lord how majestic is your name in the earth, you have set the glory above the heavens" and you can picture him there, looking up. Perhaps you've seen in the dark night sky, the glittering stars and David sees that as the glory of God. And he says in verse 3 "When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you have set in place" he's absolutely astounded by who God is. And then in comparison David was astounded that God made us to reflect that glory. He says "What is man that you are mindful of him and the son of man that you care for him? Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor." that's pretty astonishing. So we know this, that as we see the beauty of humanity, the creativity, the ingenuity, persistence and perseverance, the intricacies of the body and the mind, even the love that people have for one another and for community, these are reflections of our maker in us.It's the imago dei, it's the reflection of the one who made us. But we also see something else when we look at humanity and sadly we see the marring of this beauty don't we?
Jinger: Yeah it's um what we're seeing headlines every single day and it's what we witnessed last week in Minneapolis and something has happened to God’s creation that has messed it up.
Jeremy: Yeah it's called sin *laughs* soon after gods original creation, humanity sinned, ushering pain and death into this world. And this sin takes all forms. You see it in hatred, violence, racism, division, abuse, immorality, on and on. The well of humanity, you could say, has been poisoned. And though we still see the reflections of God in us and in his creations, it's definitely not 100%. Our hearts, bodies, our entire existence, has been effected by sin.
Jinger: So many headlines, like what we saw in The New York times just a few days ago "8 Minutes and 46 Seconds, How George Floyd Was Killed in Police Custody" become tragically normal and it just makes your heart so sick. And it's not supposed to be that way and we feel that, we feel how unnatural this is. Murder is unnatural, injustice is unnatural and death itself is unnatural.
Jeremy: Yeah it is. And so as Christians living in this sin plagued world, how are we supposed to respond?
Jinger: We weep. I think the first thing we need to say is we should weep with those who weep. People are hurting and we need to stand with them and weep. But we also need to weep at the brokenness around us and it's not just the black community crying out over the death of George Floyd, humanity ought to cry out. It's just so heartbreaking to see this. And George was a man made in the image of God and he was fellow image barer like me, like all of us. And so to see his life taken is such a tragedy.
Jeremy: Yeah that's right. We ourselves grieve and we also grieve with those who are grieving. Jesus wept at the death of his friend Lazarus. He felt the pain of those he loved and yet Jesus knew what he has about to do when it comes to Lazarus, he was about to raise him from the dead. And it's here that I think we need to focus just a moment. As your grieving, facing injustice or death or pain of any sort we need to know that there is one who knows, he truly knows, Jesus knows your pain and he cares about your pain. Jesus Christ is compassionate and compassion is to care. We can look at a headline and say "Oh that's really sad" and move on with our day, but that's not true compassion. True compassion does something, true compassion reacts. And so we see Jesus wept at the death of Lazarus and then he raised him from the dead. And there is one Jesus Christ who demonstrates the greatest compassion imaginable. Jesus Christ came into this world and wept. He read the headlines, he lived the headlines, Christ created this world in harmony and unity but sin decimated peace. It brought bloodshed. But instead of just sitting in heaven Jesus entered earth. He came among us, and moved on his compassion, he actually did something. And we need to pay attention to what he did because what he did is the only ultimate answer to our pain and suffering. So when we think about compassion, and Jing you say 'How do we respond as Christians to the events of last week' and you say 'Well we weep we ourselves weep, we weep with those who weep' but compassion moves beyond the feeling of pain or sympathy in to the realm of action, of doing something. And we look at Christ. He wept, we need to weep but he didn't only weep, he then moved and did something. And this is what Jesus did, listen to the beautiful words of the prophet Isiah, this is Isiah 53, speaking of Jesus, says "He was despised and rejected by man. A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief and as one of whom man hide their faces, he was despised. And we esteemed him not. Surely he has born our griefs and carried our sorrows, yet we esteemed him stricken, smited by God and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our inequities upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace and with his wounds we are healed. All we, like sheep, have gone astray. We have turned every one to his own way and the lord has laid on him the inequity of us all. He was oppressed and He was afflicted yet He opened not his mouth, like a lamb that is lead to the slaughter and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so opened not his mouth. By oppression and judgement He was taken away and as for his generation, who considered that was cut off of the land of the living, stricken for the transgressions of my people." So we read that and we think "OK what did Jesus do?" well he came to earth to be oppressed, he came to be maligned, he came to be murdered. Why? So that his compassion was not merely a thought but his compassion was action that rescues. Jesus Christ took on sin itself to rescue us from sin. And not just the sin of others impacting us, which is prevalent, but the sin our own hearts. So Jesus Christ can relate to your pain, he can relate to your tears, he can relate to your feelings of anguish. But more than putting an arm on your shoulder and weeping beside you, he actually has accomplished the great salvation by which you and I can be rescued from sin itself and all the effects of sin.
Jinger: Yeah it makes me think of the verses in Titus that you often bring up.
Jeremy: That describes the brokenness of this world and then show the beauty of Jesus's salvation. Yeah I bring them up so often because they’re so spot on and succinct in describing the brokenness of humanity and, like you said, the beauty of Jesus. So those verses, from Titus 3, beginning of verse 3 where the apostle Paul says "We ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, lead astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God, our savior, appeared, he saved us. Not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the spirit whom he poured down on us richly through Jesus Christ our savior so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life." What Paul is saying is that we were broken, we were sin committers, we were committing sin but we were also effected by sin, we were hating others and hated by others, we were slaves to our lust, but something happened but the goodness and loving kindness of god our savior appeared to save us. so that no longer would we be bound by the enslavement of sin and the effects of sin but that we would be rescued. and notice what I just read "that we become heirs according to the hope of eternal life." That there would be this hope that there is beyond the pain of this life. And so Jesus Christ, he knows our pain but he doesn't only empathize helplessly he empathizes yes, but then he enters this world and rescues us.
Jinger: Yeah and for those who are rescued by turning to Jesus in repentance and faith an amazing glory awaits in heaven. A glory where black, white and brown, rich and poor, strong and weak, American, African, Asian, European, where we will all sing in a unified voice to the one who showed true compassion and rescued us.
Jeremy: Yeah. Baby why don't you read that passage that you're talking about from revelation?
Jinger: Yeah it's revelation 5, 9 and 10 and it says "And they sang a new song saying 'worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people in nation and you have made them a kingdom and priest to our god and they shall reign on the earth”.
Jeremy: Yeah it's incredible to see the nations gathered. The, like you said, black, brown, white, African, American, European, all these beautiful nations, all these beautiful people that God has made. You know that's something I think about often in that verse is that there is distinction among us isn't there? And there's beautiful distinction. From the color of our skin to the cultural homes we come from. The languages we share. There’s beautiful distinction in people. And we see that beauty don’t we? And the hope of heaven is that one day we will be joined together. All those who have put their faith and trust in Christ will sing a unified song, in a unified voice, praising Jesus Christ, who came to rescue them from sin, to rescue them from death itself. And so these are dark day we're living in, and we're grieving, but we do not need to grieve as those without hope. Christian, preach the gospel, preach this gospel. Only Jesus offers the change that is big enough, strong enough to save us from hatred, abuse, racism, to save us from sin.
Jinger: That's right.
Jeremy: Well thanks for joining us today for The Hope We Hold podcast. We trust that you were encouraged. Jinger: And it is our hope that your hope will be in Christ alone.

11th December >> (@ZenitEnglish) #PopeFrancis General Audience Address in St Paul VI Hall: St. Paul, Suffering Witness of Risen One (Full Text) ‘Today, many Christians in the world, in Europe, are persecuted and give their life for the faith, or are persecuted with white gloves, namely, left aside, marginalized…’
This morning’s General Audience was held at 9:20 am in Paul VI Hall, where the Holy Father Francis met with groups of pilgrims and faithful from Italy and from all over the world.
Continuing with the series of catecheses on the Acts of the Apostles, in his address in Italian the Pope meditated on the theme: “In a short time you think to make me a Christian!” (Acts 26:28) — Paul is a prisoner before King Agrippa (Biblical passage: Acts of the Apostles 26:22-23).
After summarizing his catechesis in several languages, the Holy Father expressed special greetings to groups of faithful present.
The General Audience ended with the singing of the Pater Noster and the Apostolic Blessing.
* * *
The Holy Father’s Catechesis
Dear Brothers and Sisters, good morning!
In the reading of the Acts of the Apostles, the journey of the Gospel continues in the world, and the seal of suffering marks increasingly Paul’s witness. However, this is something that grows over time in Paul’s life. Paul isn’t only the evangelizer full of ardour, the intrepid missionary among the pagans, who gives life to new Christian communities, but he is also the suffering witness of the Risen One (Cf. Acts 9:15-16).
The Apostle’s arrival in Jerusalem, described in chapter 21 of the Acts, unleashes a ferocious hatred in his regard; they reprimand him: “But he was a persecutor! Don’t trust him!” As it was for Jesus, for Paul also Jerusalem is the hostile city. Going to the Temple, he is recognized; <he is> led outside to be lynched, and saved in extremis by the Roman soldiers. Accused of teaching against the Law and the Temple, he is arrested and begins his prisoner’s pilgrimage, first before the Sanhedrin, then before the Roman Procurator in Caesarea and finally before King Agrippa. Luke shows the similarity between Paul and Jesus, both hated by their adversaries, accused publicly and acknowledged innocent by the imperial Authorities and so Paul is associated to his Master’s Passion, and his passion becomes a living Gospel. I <have> come from Saint Peter’s Basilica, where this morning I had an audience earlier with Ukrainian pilgrims from a Ukrainian diocese. How these people have been persecuted; how much they have suffered for the Gospel! However, they didn’t negotiate the faith. They are an example. Today, many Christians in the world, in Europe, are persecuted and give their life for the faith, or are persecuted with white gloves, namely, left aside, marginalized . . . Martyrdom is the air of a Christian’s life, of a Christian community. There will always be martyrs among us: this is the sign that we are following Jesus’ way. It’s a blessing of the Lord, that there be in the People of God, a man or a woman who gives this witness of martyrdom.
Paul is called to defend himself from the accusations and, in the end, in the presence of King Agrippa II, his apologia changes into an effective witness of faith (Cf. Acts 26:1-23). Then Paul recounts his own conversion: the Risen Christ has made him Christian and has entrusted to him the mission among the Gentiles, “that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of their sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith” in Christ (v. 18). Paul obeyed this charge and did nothing other than show how the prophets and Moses announced what he now proclaims: “that the Christ must suffer, and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to the people and to the Gentiles” (v. 23).
Paul’s passionate witness touches the heart of King Agrippa, who is only lacking the decisive step. And the King says thus: ”In a short time you think to make me a Christian!” (v. 28). Paul is declared innocent, but he cannot be released because he has appealed to Caesar. Thus, the unstoppable journey of the Word of God continues towards Rome. Paul, in chains, will end up here in Rome.
Henceforth, Paul’s portrait is that of a prisoner whose chains are the sign of his fidelity to the Gospel and of the testimony rendered to the Risen One. The chains are certainly a humiliating test for the Apostle, who appears to the eyes of the world as a “criminal” (2 Timothy 2:9). However, his love for Christ is so strong that even these chains are read with the eyes of faith; faith that for Paul isn’t “a theory, an opinion on God and on the world,” but “the impact of the love of God on his heart, [. . . ] it’s love for Jesus Christ.” (Benedict XVI, Homily on the Occasion of the Pauline Year, June 28, 2008).
Dear brothers and sisters, Paul teaches us perseverance in trials and the capacity to read all with the eyes of faith. Let us ask the Lord today, through the intercession of the Apostle, to revive our faith and to help us to be faithful to the end to our vocation of Christians, of disciples of the Lord, of missionaries.

In Italian
A warm welcome goes to the Italian-speaking pilgrims. In particular, I greet the Missionaries of Charity; and the parish groups, especially those of Mendicino and of Faro-Fiumicino. In addition, I greet the personnel of the Police Headquarters of Crotone, the Feasts of Mesagne Committee; the delegations of the Municipalities of Introd and of Bolsena; the group of professionals and doctors in Optometry; and the Friends of the Blessed Pellesi Association of San Michele dei Mucchietti-Sassuolo.
Finally, I greet the young people, the elderly, the sick and the newlyweds. Observed next Friday is the Memorial of Saint Lucy, Virgin and Martyr. I wish all of you that the light of the Child Jesus, now on the horizon, may invade your life with His blessing.

Real Italian Renaissance Fashion
The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual gala held this past weekend attracted quite a bit of outrage and attention for various haute couture interpretations of the theme ““Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” Much was made of the influence of painting upon the designs. However, the original garments made for Roman Catholic clerics during the 15th Century, for example, are extraordinarily imaginative and beautiful works of art, which take us to the heart of the Italian Renaissance. However, like some other short-lived phenomena of Italian Renaissance decorative arts, such as istoriato maiolica or elaborate Cardinals' seals, they flourished in their purest form only for a limited period. By the mid-16th Century, facing down the Reformation and the rise of Paris as the center of fashion, elaborate clerical wear must already have begun to be regarded as rather old-fashioned.
The textile used in this Venetian chasuble is iconic of the early Renaissance period and highly valued; it is this type of textile that is often seen in religious paintings of the time. The complex and expensive weave structure incorporates pile-on-pile weaving, as well as gold metallic loops within the velvet that add extra glitter and shading. The three-dimensional surface is achieved through the use of different lengths of pile. The figures have been identified as a youthful St. John the Evangelist, holding the cup of poison that did not harm him; St. Andrew, with the book and X-shaped cross with which he is associated; a bearded St. Paul, holding a book and a sword; St. Thomas, holding a book and a carpenter's angle; and, possibly, St. Philip, holding a book and a staff with a red cross on one end.
The textile used in this green chasuble from Genoa is a beautiful example of elaborate weaving. Here the use of cut and uncut velvet is used to delineate the interior layers of the flowers, which gives them a rich and dimensional appearance. The use of metallic bouclé to provide an additional level of patterning also shows a high level of weaving acumen. The curvilinear pattern known as ferronerieis used here on the main fabric of the chasuble. Ferroneriewas prevalent in textile design during the Renaissance and reflected the ornate ironwork of the period.
In the Middle Ages and in the Renaissance period, Italian fabrics were famous; the entire fashion world in Europe would wear it. One of the most important cities for the production of fabrics was Florence, a place where fine woolen cloth and sumptuous silk drapery was being created. Florentine velvets were created with silk, gold or silver and they truly were a luxury item; no wonder that they were used for the wardrobes of the rich, nobles, kings, queens, and they were represented in so many paintings of the time. Giuseppe Lisio (1870-1943), drawing on this tradition which by the early 20th Century was in severe decline decided to go into business by himself and create a laboratory of silk fabrics in Florence, inspired by the Renaissance works of art. He opened a shop on Via dei Fossi in 1906, thus preserving techniques that were fated to be forgotten. Lisio decided to also open other shops in Rome and Milan. In 1971 the Arte della Seta Lisio Foundation was created, and continues on the ancient techniques of weaving through courses, conferences, and publications.

hi, same anon who asked about the Divine Image vs. total depravity, and i read all your subsequent posts/replies about salvation. thank you for your explanation, but i'm still confused--are we STILL in the Divine Image? was the divine part taken away by the sin of disobedience? -"Ari" (1/2)
further, i accept that i'm sinful and i want to repent, i just don't understand why Christianity is the only form of repentance. (Christians--Protestants, Catholics, pastors, laymen--have given their explanations to me SO many times, and i really appreciate it, i just never agreed or understood why they thought it was the only way.) and i prayed to God so much for knowledge of whether Christianity was the right way. aren't i an example of someone trying to repent and yet can't? -Ari (2/2)
Hi Ari!
Everyone--even the worst of sinners--still possess the Imago Dei, for we are all made in the image of God. Sin has distorted it, but we have not lost it completely.
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”
Genesis 1:27
Because we live in a society that accepts pluralism (acceptance of different conflicting religious and philosophical principles), it's politically incorrect to assert that Christianity is the only truth and Christ is the only way of salvation.
But, of course, that is exactly the “offense of the Gospel” to modern pluralistic people. When we examine the content of the world religions, we see that at cardinal points of values and truth claims, they are wholly at odds with biblical religion. No religion except Christianity has an atonement.
The notion that all religions are valid is logically impossible. If all are valid ways to God, then Christianity is also valid and Jesus is simply one of many ways to God. But we find that Jesus says He is the only way, and that no one can come to the Father except through Him. Thus, if Christ is one of the ways to God, then He is also the only way. Or else this Jesus, who is one of the ways, is dead wrong in claiming to be the only way, in which case it would be foolish to think that He is even one of the ways.
Christians did not come up with the idea that Jesus is the only way to God. That idea originated with Christ Himself. If He was wrong, then Christianity has no validity at all. If He was right, then there is no other way.
The Bible also says faith is a gift from God.
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9
Ultimately, deducing from Scripture, I believe that Christians believe what they do today because of the mercy of God. He was pleased to reveal to us that we are sinners at the mercy of the Holy and Sovereign King.
God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth,
2 Timothy 2:25
Repentance is a gift from God. We express contrition for our sins and their offense to our holy Creator, but the Holy Spirit must give us the ability to do this. Without His sovereign work, we do not care that we have offended the Lord by breaking His law. In fact, we glory in our rebellion. But when the Spirit works in our hearts, we see our sin and, hating it, turn to Christ. A life of repentance is a manifestation of an authentic conversion.
Ari, you seem to battle with an assurance that Christianity is the only way. Before you can throw yourself upon the mercy of Christ, you have to understand the reality of your sins. You didn’t just an offend a human being. You offended the Eternal King who breathed the universe into existence.
I’ll ask you this: you spit on a civilian in the street. It’s very likely they’ll just shout at you, curse at you, maybe even spit back. If you spit on a policeman, you’ll end up at the police station and even jailed for your wrongdoing.
The point I’m trying to make is this: you spit on the face of God everyday with your sin. And He isn’t just a civilian on the street, or a policeman. He is the most perfect and righteous Judge, the Creator of all things. Your one sin against Him warrants an eternity in hell. That’s how good He is. And that should scare us.
And yet... because of His great love He sent His Son as a propitiation for our sins, that Christ would be the one to be judged as if He was the one who committed sin. Our sins have been placed on Him, now if we have repented, His righteousness would be imputed to ours, and we will stand before God as pure as Christ. That’s the good news.
Paul Washer said this: “With one hand God is motioning man to come to Him. With the other hand He is holding back His wrath. Soon, He is going to drop both hands."
Therefore, consider the magnitude of your sins against the perfect and righteous God, and consider Christ. He’s the only One who can take away your sins because He has already atoned for them completely at the cross. No person claiming to be god has done this. No other religion has a story where its god left his glory to be with humankind in order to pay for the price of its sin.
I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I did not hide; I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD”; and You forgave the guilt of my sin.
Psalm 32:5

Saint of the day May 25
Venerable Bede. Bede was born near St. Peter and St. Paul monastery at Wearmouth-Jarrow, England. He was sent there when he was three and educated by Abbots Benedict Biscop and Ceolfrid. He became a monk at the monastery, was ordained when thirty, and except for a few brief visits elsewhere, spent all of his life in the monastery, devoting himself to the study of Scripture and to teaching and writing. He is considered one of the most learned men of his time and a major influence on English literature.
St. Aldhelm, 709 A.D. Bishop and abbot, also called Adelemus, Athelmas, Adelnie, Eadelhelm, Aedelhem. Born about 639, and a relative of King Ine of Wessex, he received his early education at Malmesbury, in Wiltshire, England. There he was trained by an Irish teacher, Maildubh, and by Adrian, a native of Roman Africa. Adrian arrived in England with Bishop Theodore and was made abbot of St. Augustine's, Canterbury. After his training in Malmesbury, Aldhelrn was named abbot of Malmesbury, where he practiced great austerity. During his term in office the abbey prospered, and he also founded St. Lawrence monastery, in the area of Bradfordon-on-Avon. Aldhelm went to Rome to represent Malmesbury before Pope Sergius. He also counseled the Wessex Synod. In 705, Aldhelm succeeded Hedda as bishop of Sherborne, Hedda's original diocese being divided. He died only four years later. A silver shrine was erected at Malmesbury in 857 by King Ethelwulf. The shrine honored not only the saint's holiness but his extraordinary and long-lasting impact on English scholarship. He was the first Englishman to promote classical learning in the isles. Some evidence of his own remarkable literary skills is extant.
St. Dunchadh, 717 A.D. Abbot of lona, in Scotland, from 710 until his death. Roman liturgical customs were adopted in Scotland in his time.
