Editor’s Note: Most of us Italian Catholics, who knew of Don Minutella, the pastor of Saint John Bosco’s Parish at Palermo, have suspected for a long time that one day Don Minutella would pronounce himself the savior of the Church, seeing that he did everything to lead his followers away from the Papacy and after the death of Pope Benedict XVI to prevent them from doing anything to upbuild the Church at Rome. — Though in the last 2.5 years he broke with Andrea Cionci, who himself flip flopped from either saying there never would be a pope again, or that we might have to wait until 2035, for all the “valid” cardinals to die or repent before we could be certain.
Minutella has made his self proclamation after using the scandal of Prevost’s invalid election to draw his “Little Remnant” (Piccolo Resto) to a grand meeting outside of Milan, at Monza, the old Lombard capital of the Kingdom of Italy. There, he foretold a great Apocalyptic Event. After which he revealed to the world that God had chosen him to restore the Church as the prophetic figure of the “great Prelate” about which various Saints and Blesseds had at times spoken of in vague ways.
Don Minutella’s self-proclamation comes after years of public denials that he was creating a cult around the “Gran Prelato” to someday claim that charismatic role for himself. Unfortunately, “prelate” in Catholic usage, both English and Italian, refers to a Bishop.
Minutella began his cult like following in 2015, by claiming that Our Lady and Saint Padre Pio spoke through him during night-time prayer sessions. He was one of the most known figures in Italy for decrying Pope Francis as a heretic, invalidly elected, and Pope Benedict XVI as the true pope.
His father was a member of the Military Police. But his son has done more to discredit the truth of the Catholic Faith than any other man in recent history, in my opinion.
Some of his ex-followers accuse him of swindling the simple minded out of their property, personal enrichment, and strange forms of inspired dancing with women in rooms with the lights turned off. — Minutella’s commentaries on Sacred Scripture follow the heretical reading taught at the Gregorian University, where the Apostles are not the authors of the New Testament, and in which the things related in the Gospels are merely narrative tools to inspire, rather than real historical events.
After this self-proclamation, the truth that Benedict XVI was the true pope until death will be seen as just another crazed idea of a crazed ex-priest. This is what I mean by doing great damage to the Catholic cause in Italy.
From the moment I came to Italy in 2019, the Faithful began talking to me about Minutella. And he tried several times to recruit me to his group, a thing I always refused to do, as I detest cults and cultic followings, and keep a distance at priests who try to gain control of the minds of others. — Let us pray that the saner part of his followers break from him, and that they eventually realize their error in following such a man. They all know that I warned them back in January 2023!

Fra’Alexis anche io non ho gradito questo riconoscimento a grande prelato,ma devo anche dire che lei è stato presente a vari incontri di Don Minutella assumendosi anche l’ impegno di controllare i fedeli in fila per le confessioni.
Sacerdoti sono sacerdoti in aeterno, il perdono dei peccati vale, quindi, confesso che sono colpevole per volere il perdono per i piu peccatori possibile. Comunque, ricordo che i sacerdoti confessando non erano Pd Minutella.
