One of the greatest enemies of the Roman Catholic Church is individualism. Submissive submissiveness and absolute obedience are only possible if the individual assimilates into the structureless mass of the “common good”. The church has now discovered individualism as the cause of mafia structures.

Continued demonization of individualism
The fight against individualism waged by the Roman Catholic Church is taking on further forms. Pope Francis is known to be an advocate of “inclusion.” Accordingly, no human being should stand out above anyone other than himself. The human being as a (functioning) part of the whole, in the role of a “human person”. In Catholic social teaching, the term “common good” is a guiding principle and, of course, for the benefit of human dignity.
For the pontiff, individuality is “against nature.” This must be combated with the “vaccine” of charity. Other attributes set by the pontiff include “hatred,” “sneaky virus,” and “xenophobia.” He is clearly trying to equate the term “individualism” with egoism, selfishness and indifference towards other people (Info). What do these things have in common? Nothing. These characteristics can certainly apply together in a person, but they do not have to. It is clear: individualism should be given the appearance of a misanthropic disease, with the aim of social uniformity, entirely in line with Rome’s ideas.
Individualism basis for mafia
Now the Roman Catholic Church went one better in the fight against individualism. “Mafia mentality is where individualism reigns,” is the belief of Bishop Francesco Savino of Cassano all’Ionio, Italy. The problem in Calabria is the mafia organization ‘ndrangheta, which is dominant there. This is a cultural and anthropological problem, said the Bishop in his speech at the “Mercy and Justice” event (Source).
The Mafia mentality is particularly rooted where there is “individualism, particularism and individual and family interests,” said the bishop. If the church wanted to do the ‘ndrangheta a favor, the pastoral approach would have to be based on individualism and not on walking together.
Rome focuses on “common good”
The message has been reinforced once again. A person who displays individualism is not only a pathological, xenophobic enemy of human dignity permeated with hate, but also a serious criminal with a tendency towards organized crime. Can it get any thicker?
The encyclicals Laudato Si’ (2015) and Fratelli Tutti (2020) published by Pope Francis describe the intended goal of this Roman church. A unification of society, at least at the “rank and file” level. All this in the light of charity and social justice. The “common good” defines Rome, the rest follows itself. Because individualism is defined by breaking away from the “generally recognized norm”.
Individualism is the order of the day
This means that the Church of Rome is once again obviously on the completely opposite course of the Gospel. “Come out of her [Babylon], my people,” is the call according to Revelation 18:4 (Info), and “Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,” as in 2 Corinthians 6:17. The result of the ecumenism fueled by Rome is exactly what people should separate themselves from or remove themselves from. Individualism towards ecumenism is therefore the order of the day.
Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
1 John 2:18
