  1. Is naming a street name after a national hero and a medieval scientist stupid?

  2. Spelled backwards these names read: "anti-Catholicism."

  3. Doesn't remove the fact that they were monumental figures in Italian history, anti-Catholic or not

  4. I think the time will come when the stupidity of the "risorgimento" will be revealed, honors and the hideous monuments for its evil "heroes" like Cavour, Garibaldi, Vittorio Emmanuele II will be demolished.

  5. Would they dare name a street after another prominent Italian such as Pio IX?

  6. So, the people in this comment room are advocating for the break-up of the Italian state and the reinstitution of the Papal State?

  7. Viva il Papa-Re! Viva la Chiesa! Viva la controrivoluzione! Abbasso l'Italietta liberale e massonica!

  8. Well...I for one would support the break up of la Reppublica into its constitutent temporal jusridictions as they existed in 1796 with all the other necessary political rearrangements that would entail in Europe beyond the Italian Peninsula. :-)

    BTW, why do my instincts suggest that the gate to hell lies at this intersection?

  9. Well i for 1 support orthodox Catholicism but not the reactionary ultra conservative variant. Dominic Bruno was one of the victims of the church's scientific ignorance during the Medieval Ages, same like Galileo. Being an orthodox Catholic doesn't mean being blind to the faults perpetrated by her mortal members, for example the moral laxity of the the Borgia and Medici papacy, its support for the Ustase and Falange in Croatia and Spain

  10. Anon 10:59 has bought into the anti-Catholic bogus.

  11. Anonymous on March 3 - there is no definition of "scientist" that includes the pantheist lunatic Giordano (not Dominic) Bruno. The story of the Church "persecuting" Galileo was debunked ages ago by Cantu' among others. You should read Rino Camilleri's "Vera Storia dell'Inquisizione" and Christopher Dawson's collection of essays "Medieval Religion". Science as we understand it today was INVENTED by the Catholic Church long before Galileo's studies and Bruno's ravings.
