Biography
Casale was born in Trani, Italy and was ordained a priest on 3 February 1946. He studied theology and history and was a professor of Church History and Italian History from 1949 to 1953 at the Catholic colleges of Trani and
Archdiocese of Foggia-Bovino on 7 May 1988 and remained in that post until his retirement on 27 May 1999.[1]
As a bishop, he spoke often on controversial political and theological issues and gained a reputation as left-wing and progressive.new religious movements, suggesting that the Catholic Church should not limit itself to criticism, but reflect on why the new movements are successful, and open a cautious dialogue with some of these groups.[5]
Casale died on 18 May 2023, at the age of 99.[6]
