Berlusconi is in communion? Dying of the Gospel
Tornielli back to the question of communion for divorced inspired by a community of Berlusconi noticina Unit on the funeral of the Alpine Matteo Miotto . Again, however, seems to me that the interpretation of the sin of the Pharisees. I think the debate, it stops at the level of the canonical norms, with a vague sentimentality towards the "drama" of the divorced. Of course a stop at this level is not only Tornielli, but most of those who have been struggling to say whether it is right or wrong side Berlusconi communion. The rules regarding the communion for divorced and have a specific reason: people who are not in communion with the Church can not participate in the clearest sign of that communion, the Eucharist. This applies to all those who are in sin. In the case of divorced and living with another person saying the situation "difficult" issue is public and under the eyes of all. Then the norm (which is never Last Judgement, because it must be understood in its aim of "improving") prohibits those publicly in "broken" with the communion not to do an act contrary to its position. But I repeat: we must go back to the reasons of the rule. So the question to ask is not whether Berlusconi can take communion, but if Berlusconi is in communion with the Church. And I would say that, apart from marriage and divorce are other situations that pose a big question on this point.
