Archbishop Vigan: Dictatorships Arise … – LewRockwell
Posted By admin on February 17, 2022
May 26, 2020 Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigan has responded to a German Rabbi, Jehoschua Ahrens, who called theVigan Appealconcerning the corona crisis and its dangers for constitutional liberties a shock, adding that he is glad that the German bishops have distanced themselves from it.
The Italian prelate defended issuing the May 7 appeal, stating: I think it is the duty of each one of us to express our concerns about a situation that, taking advantage of the Covid crisis, goes far beyond reasonable safety measures, imposing on entire nations the deprivation of constitutional freedoms.
Archbishop Vigan warned that recent German history has much to teach about the rise of a hellish dictatorship that few opposed and spoke out against at the time it was happening.
Obedience to Authority...Milgram, StanleyBest Price: $2.21Buy New $9.34(as of 06:19 UTC - Details)There was a time when, with the obedience of the masses, a hellish dictatorship committed a very serious crime, making itself responsible for the deportation and death of millions of innocent people, only because of their faith and line of descent, he said.
Even then the mainstream media praised those in power and remained silent about their crimes; even then doctors and scientists lent their work to a delusional plan of domination; even then those who dared to raise their voices were accused of conspiracy theories. One had to wait until the end of the Second World War to discover with horror the truth about which many had hitherto remained silent, he added.
The Archbishop warned that those who today delegitimize the Appeal as an expression of conspiracy theories do not realize the real dangers to which the entire human family is exposed.
But I am certain that both Catholics and all men of good will and among them I think I can include the children of Abraham have at heart the greater glory of God, the respect for the dignity of individuals, and the freedoms of peoples, he said.
Rabbi Ahrens criticism of Vigans Appeal wasreported on May 20by Katholisch.de, the German bishops official news website. The Rabbis original words first appeared in the newspaperJdische Allgemeine.
