VATICAN APPROVES GHOST SEEKER'S SEANCE
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Vatican for the first time has authorized one of its top
|
|||
|
|
theologians to make contact with the spirit world.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Monsignor Ernesto Pisoni, 56, is spending his days and nights
|
|||
|
|
"walking and talking" with ghosts to find out exactly what's
|
|||
|
|
awaiting us in the afterlife.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The highly respected roman Catholic churchman says his experiences
|
|||
|
|
already have proven:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
there is life after death
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
ghosts not only exist, they walk among the living
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Purgatory, a frightful dimension between life and death
|
|||
|
|
where souls are purified before they can enter heaven, really does
|
|||
|
|
await us all.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"the church has always urged us to contact sould, especially
|
|||
|
|
saints, through prayer," Pisoni told Globe. "In my work, I've
|
|||
|
|
gone a step further and tried - successfully - to communicate with
|
|||
|
|
the dead."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Pisoni, the former editor of the Catholic newspaper L'Italia and
|
|||
|
|
author of several books on religion, became interested in ghosts
|
|||
|
|
when his brother, who died of a heart attack in Milan, apeared to
|
|||
|
|
him in spirit form.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"After his death, I began meeting him around the city," says
|
|||
|
|
Pisoni. "He said he was moving toward the 'light,' but that he
|
|||
|
|
was being burned by fire and the pain was unrelenting".
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"He said the pain was necessary to prepare him for the light, and
|
|||
|
|
from all this, I know he was in prugatory."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Pisoni says his anguished brother "returned" about two months
|
|||
|
|
later, but this time, "he was out of pain and more serene."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Catholic church doesn't generally approve of seances, so
|
|||
|
|
Pisoni asked and received a "special dispensation" from the
|
|||
|
|
Vatican's College of Cardinals to pursue his study of the spirit
|
|||
|
|
world.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Since then, he has met hundreds of spirits - including those of
|
|||
|
|
great historical figures like Cardinal Barberini, who lived in the
|
|||
|
|
15th century.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"He spoke in Latin and dictated passages to me," says Pisoni. "I
|
|||
|
|
later compared the style with his earthly writings and they were
|
|||
|
|
identical."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Pisoni says one of his most dramatic experiences came from a
|
|||
|
|
spirit who complained that he had been buried in unconsecrated
|
|||
|
|
ground.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"He told us his body was buried under the cellar of a very
|
|||
|
|
building we were in." he says. "We went down after the seance
|
|||
|
|
and started hacking at the old floor. Sure enough, we found a
|
|||
|
|
human skeleton."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
But not all spirits are so even-tempered. "One night a spirit
|
|||
|
|
called Gaston threatened to kill us." says Pisoni.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"furniture started to tremble and pictures and vases smashed to
|
|||
|
|
the floor. He told us he had killed his wife and three doughters
|
|||
|
|
with a hatchet in a drunken rage. I later traced him to France
|
|||
|
|
and found that he had been a notorious criminal."
|

- The Globe-

|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
At first this story sems so absurd that it is almost humouous.
|
|||
|
|
Actually, it is alarming. It disturbs us that a religious man can
|
|||
|
|
believe - and then propagate - such satanic lies. Worse yet is
|
|||
|
|
that his church sanctions these occultic, satanic investigations.
