(Lq 6, 43-44)
[Mt:7:15] "Iftħu għajnejkom mill-profeti foloz; għax dawn jiġu għandkom libsin ta' nagħaġ, u minn ġewwa jkunu lpup ħattafa! [Mt:7:16] Mill-frott tagħhom tagħrfuhom. Jaqaw jiġbru għeneb mix-xewk, jew tin mill-għollieq? [Mt:7:17] Hekk kull siġra tajba frott tajjeb tagħmel, imma s-siġra l-ħażina frott ħażin tagħmel. [Mt:7:18] Siġra tajba ma tistax tagħmel frott ħażin, anqas siġra ħażina ma tagħmelx frott tajjeb. [Mt:7:19] Kull siġra li ma tagħmilx frott tajjeb titqaċċat u tinxteħet fin-nar. [Mt:7:20] Għalhekk mill-frott tagħhom tagħrfuhom.

“Cosa porta le persone a credere a
sedicenti veggenti come Paolo Catanzaro? L’illusione che di loro mi posso
fidare quasi ciecamente perché sono uniti a Dio e mi risolvono tutti i
problemi. E’ una forma di surrogato, cioè le persone che non hanno una fede autentica
e non la coltivano rischiano di rimanere intrappolati nella rete”. Questo é il
commento dell’Arcivescovo di Brindisi-Ostuni, Mons. Domenico Caliandro, durante
l’inchiesta di ‘Indagine ai Confini del Sacro’ di David Murgia su Tv2000, sulla
vicenda di Paolo Catanzaro, sedicente veggente che dagli inizi degli anni ’90,
per circa 20 anni, ha raccontato di incontrare la Madonna ogni 24 del mese
nella chiesetta rurale di contrada Uggio, nelle campagne di Brindisi. Durante
gli incontri, a detta dei testimoni, avrebbe compiuto guarigioni e profetizzato
rivelazioni in un turbine di svenimenti, profumi intensi, sole che cambia
colore e altri fenomeni. Paolo Catanzaro, le cui apparizioni sono state
ritenute dall’arcidiocesi di Brindisi-Ostuni e dalla Congregazione della
Dottrina della Fede non autentiche, è imputato presso il Tribunale di Bari per
truffa aggravata. Il sedicente veggente ha successivamente cambiato sesso
diventando Paola Catanzaro. Ha quindi intrapreso la carriera artistica come
attrice cinematografica con il nome d’arte Sveva Cardinale.
