Synopsis

If the story of Giordano Bruno has rightfully become the universal paradigm of the struggle between totalitarian powers and the demands for freedom, this isn't the case when history obscures the causes and actors of the power struggle that erupted within European Catholicism. This was a war with soldiers arrayed on opposing sides, with dead and wounded on both sides. Giordano Bruno, besides being a man with every right to criticize established authority, was also a soldier who fought (albeit with substantial distinctions and the intellectual honesty that befitted him) under the insignia and with the theses of the Calvinist and Anglican camps. These camps were certainly not innocent. If Catholics killed the heretics of the opposing camp, so too did the Calvinists and the Anglicans of Elizabeth I, who killed and persecuted Catholics. In South America, it was the Spanish, fervent Catholics, who committed crimes. Meanwhile, in the North, it was the European Puritans who exterminated local populations with gold stolen from the Spanis - gold that the Spanish had previously stolen from the indigenous peoples. Would Giordano have approved? I don't think so ! Therefore, in commemorating Giordano's martyrdom at the hands of Catholics, let's not forget the crimes committed by Protestants against Native Americans, Africans in the colonies, and Indians, or the genocide of Palestinians by Zionist Jews. Giordano cannot be equated with the millions of Native Americans, Palestinians, and Africans massacred by the same Freemasons who erected the monument to Giordano Bruno. This is a double standard against Catholicism and Christianity itself that we cannot accept.
