Augustus Nicodemus wrote that sexual scandals, corruption, and abuse of power in evangelical and Catholic churches did not demonstrate that Christianity was false. According to him, these cases showed that wearing religious garments or carrying a Bible did not make someone holy, and Jesus had already warned about people who would act like wolves. #Cristianismo #Igrejas #Escândalos (translated)

Marina Silva said that she has always defended a secular state, with freedom and guarantees for all religions, but that her evangelical faith guided many of her choices. When mentioning the parable of the good Samaritan, she stated that Jesus valued acts of care, not just religious titles. Silva declared her support for those who commit to the dignity and safety of Brazilians. She cited examples such as the Popular Pharmacy, the income tax exemption for those earning up to 5,000 reais, school meals, technical and vocational education, and funding for public universities to conduct research. She also expressed support for the protection of nature and financial assistance to people in difficult situations. She urged people not to make their decisions based on hatred and warned that policies built over many years could be quickly destroyed, leaving the population more vulnerable without support.

Cristiano Tinazzi argued that disinformation played a central role in hybrid warfare and that its dissemination through a public television program constituted a national problem. He pointed to "In Mezz’ora" on Rai and Gian Micalessin’s reports, stating that in the past the journalist had been in Bashar al-Assad's court to present him as a defender of Christians. Tinazzi also recalled a report on Maidan that, in his opinion, the BBC had termed false: Micalessin had interviewed people presented as Georgian snipers, claiming that the protesters had shot themselves. Tinazzi stated that other freelancers had been excluded from mainstream media for much less, while Micalessin continued to work and move with the Russian occupiers. He linked the situation to the journalist's historical ties with Monica Maggioni, whom he described as his former partner and founder of GM News Produzioni, where Maggioni had been a managing partner. In his view, this created a serious conflict of interest, on which the Rai Supervisory Commission had also taken an interest in 2022. Tinazzi said that one should expect rigor and seriousness from a public television program, and not a showcase for Russian propaganda. He cited an interview by Micalessin with Kostyantyn Suvkov, whom he defined as a representative of ultranationalist and militarist Russian propaganda. According to Tinazzi, that content contributed to polluting information and was part of a psychological warfare operation aimed at terrorizing Western public opinion and weakening military support for Kyiv. #Disinformazione #GuerraIbrida #MediaResponsabili (translated)

People must understand that there are serious consequences for this kind of thing. Our present is very similar to the 11th century – We do not want to fight, but, like our Christian brothers a thousand years ago, we must do it. The most evocative is that of the "crusade," in which Hegseth sees a historical and spiritual model: "Our present is very similar to the 11th century – he writes in his book American Crusade, from 2020 – We do not want to fight, but, like our Christian brothers a thousand years ago, we must do it." #PenaDiMorte #Trump #Fede (translated)

Simone Pillon recalled the Battle of Lepanto, fought on October 7, 1571, describing it as a clash between Christians and Muslims. He wrote that the Holy League, composed of Austrians, Spaniards, Venetians, Lombards, Romagnols, Tuscans, Savoyards, Genoese, Sicilians, and Neapolitans, deployed under the command of Don John of Austria 6 galleasses and about 204 galleys. According to Pillon, the Turkish fleet of Ali Pasha consisted of 170-180 galleys, 20 or 30 galliots, and an unspecified number of xebecs and privateer brigs. Pillon reported that Pope Pius V had a premonition and prayed the rosary during the battle, while the Christian fighters received the Eucharist before setting sail. He wrote that, despite the Turkish numerical superiority and the initially favorable wind for the Ottomans, the direction of the wind changed, and the Holy League won. In his account, Pillon indicated that the Turks lost 80 galleys sunk and 117 captured, along with 27 galliots sunk and 13 captured; he added that 30,000 Turks were killed or injured, and 8,000 were taken prisoner. He also claimed that 15,000 Christians enslaved at the oars were freed. He said that Pius V dedicated the victory to Our Lady of the Rosary and that October 7 became the feast of the Rosary. Pillon finally wrote that, in his view, the Christian West was facing new battles, some already open, and hoped that they would be bloodless and victorious. He wondered if there were still strong men capable of protecting the lands and families. #Lepanto #Storia #Battaglie (translated)
