Ethics between reason and religion

L’esempio deve praticarsi dall’alto

Tornare al giusto concetto di Etica nella ragione e nella religione

I frequenti appelli del Papa alla morale, interpretata dalla dottrina della Chiesa, non hanno
contraltare nel mondo secolarizzato – La parola luminosa del Voltaire e l’accordo fra i giusti -

Le ultime vicende di corruzione che imperversano attraverso la stampa, continuano a trasmettere il messaggio comune che, se la morale popolarmente intesa è in pieno decadimento, non sussiste neppure una autorità superiore che può farsi latrìce di una qualsivoglia interpretazione ed applicazione della medesima, mentre le supreme autorità statali, sin dalla concezione dell’idea pura di Nazione, hanno –specie negli ultimi decenni- affatto rinunziato ad ergersi quali garanti di una corretta applicazione dei cosiddetti principi etici. Per essere più precisi, formuliamo un esempio banale: ove un cittadino ritenga di patire ingiustizia, si rivolge con fiducia alla Magistratura, che è –massime in Italia, poiché, per chi non lo rammenti, è dalla Suprema Corte che deriva il medesimo riconoscimento dello stato repubblicano, nel giugno 1946, ben più pregnante dell’oramai discusso e storicamente falso referendum sulla forma del governo- la garante massima del Diritto. Il quale in certo senso you invest in ethical cognition. And yet, the private lives of the corporation, among many others in Italy but certainly more powerful, the Magistrates can not be the subject of proceedings under the confidentiality and privacy. In other words, those who administer justice and in some sense, morality, can not be a moral issue. Then it turns to religion, and age are the focus of their work, closely related to educational levels: Roman Catholicism in particular, our faith predominates. There are frequent references of the current Holy Father, perhaps more than their predecessors, for a strict application and adheres to Christian values \u200b\u200band Catholic social teaching, this concept that he himself, in an address on May 22 last, has appealed to "World Ethos": "Without the reference point represented by the universal common good can not be said that there is a genuine global ethic and the corresponding will to live, with appropriate institutions. It is then crucial that those assets are identified in which all peoples must have access in their view of human fulfillment ... What, however, is a fundamental priority, in view of the development of the entire family of nations, 's efforts to recognize the true scale of property-values. Only through the correct hierarchy of human goods is impossible to understand what kind of development should be promoted ... It is given especially by the increase in those good choices that are possible when there is the notion of an integral human good, when there is a telos, a purpose, on which light is designed and intended development "(see the participants of the Conference Foundation Centesimus Annus). Benedict XVI also be fine theologian, often back on the relationship between Thomism, rationality and faith (see us sitting on Wednesday, June 16) in specifying the shape of the high Aquinas, has not concealed the important reference to the simultaneous binding principles and ethics in the modern world.
Well-known scandals allignanti also facing the inside, the Church through the Petrine teaching strives to provide, to believers e non credenti, una via non diremmo propriamente solo di salvezza, ma di comportamento specchiato.

Quel che scandalizza in una società fortemente secolarizzata è che il rapporto etico appare assolutamente deficitario, in coloro i quali fanno professione di libero pensiero, di superiorità di atteggiamenti, in un termine di spòcchia intellettuale. Tra codeste categorie, libertine ne’ costumi come nel linguaggio, sono preponderanti i politici della nostra Patria. E’ semplicemente vergognoso sentir ciarlare taluni (non si fanno qui nomi per non insozzare le pagine orgogliose del giornale…) in termini che in altri tempi si sarebbe detto da osterìa, come altri non applicare il precetto senechiano secondo cui ci you should always behave as if we all observe, through the streets of righteousness. Financo there is the righteous behavior of those who dare to stigmatize, to remain in the wake of the Gospel, the splinter in the other, while the beam in his eye is abnormal and macroscopic. The fact is that the teachings of that supreme master to which all must bow, the gentle Rabbi of Nazareth, who often repeated that "he who is without sin among you cast the stone", are the many, and politicians in the first place, not only unfulfilled but betrayed by those maxims, the most guilty, which enclose the sides of the spotless robe of baptism, profess to be Christians and act spargon items as such. While the apostolate has no need of trumpets, no fanfare: a work in silence and prayer of the heart first, the other-then-only those who believe.
"There is a moral one, as there is only one geometry. I will oppose that most people ignore the geometry. It 's true, but every man if we only studied a bit', there is agreement. So farmers, laborers, artisans, have never taken courses on morals, have never read Cicero's De finibus, or the various Ethics of Aristotle: but not just reflect a bit 'on the subject, unwittingly become disciples of Cicero: The Indian dyer, Pastor tartar and the English sailor, recognize the same way right and wrong ... The moral is not superstition, nor in the ceremonies, and has nothing in common with dogma. We will not repeat often enough that while the dogmas of religion are different from each other, the moral is the same among all men who know how to make use of reason. The moral we receive from God, as light. Our superstitions are nothing but darkness. Think, dear reader: apply this truth and pull the consequences'. This is the "morale" of the Philosophical Dictionary of Voltaire, dated 1764: History was never more uncertain, being so large sacrosanct words universal for all peoples and applying to all human being who has the concept of goodness and righteousness well-honed team in shots and a mallet.
Where an enlightened philosopher in the great century, the eighteenth century, has led the way, nowadays only remnants of those who crédonsi's followers could carry the torch. The conciliation important and great that the Church (Second Vatican Council) and representatives from the world of light that never sets, to say the least, allowed to set without hesitation a common path, whose main features may remain hidden, because time of fanaticism are now clearly identified, are still the eternal flame, the Ark of the good order of the people. Still, will not fail to return the serene, and from as from the bottom of the Ethics will be led by leaders, peoples and churches. As it once was since the beginning of time, according to the law of Melchizedek.

Death to pedophile priests: he says the Church

authoritative teaching of the Holy See

Death to the (priests) pedophiles: now says the Church

The prestigious word in the parent repair Scicluna abuse of priests, can be a valuable suggestion to our politicians - Even in ancient times is so punished pederasty -

The part of the public still pervaded by those who once used to establish sound principles, it remains quite horrified to read the information, and operators have a very serious responsibility in this regard- foul deeds of abomination against children, frightening cases of child abuse which are often amplified and sometimes described it 'their gruesome detail, almost a kind of dirty satisfying cravings for knowledge, for certain. Who then has the gift of 'children, and tries to educate them according to the Ethics in an absolute sense, feel such disdain, even if it has blood in his veins, to ask the Almighty to contain: This reaction is believed to be purely human. For our part, and also from these columns, many times we raise our voice to perennial and perpetual condemnation of these murderers, for which a civil state that is said, can only impose the extinction of what is no longer life, but offensive to the genus name: ie, put to death.
Fortunately, state communities supported by the peoples of the subject nations (the United States to Japan, Saudi Arabia, much criticized for other reasons, to China and then the larger population of the Earth) retain their judicial death penalty for crimes so serious and dangerous to society. Sad record in reverse, that of Italy, that many times in international fora, instead of defending the lives of children from conception, there was unworthy spokesman of the abolition of capital punishment, thus sanctioning punishment at all unsuitable for these kinds of crimes. A state ethics can not and must not impose that the extinction of Codest physical beings, that if you exclude themselves from the same human race. Our thoughts, we know to be a minority in Italian public opinion: Epper, even after the newly discovered cases shameful, if the higher religious forum, namely the Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church, officially expressed, albeit in respect of accused priests and confess of child abuse, to their deaths, the carat weight outline of the question, in our opinion, very much. It would be a good thing that my fellow journalists, accustomed to tinker and toy with amenities, they did bounce continually the words of the promoter of justice, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Father Charles Scicluna, who on May 29 he led a prayer in St. Peter's of reparation for the crimes committed by pedophile priests.

In this authoritative forum, he has said the word of God, for those who believe in the Gospel passage known (by us several times recalled, and finally erected a banner in a perfect manner, by the Holy See) that "whoever causes one of these little ones who believe, and 'it's better for him to put a millstone ass by the neck and thrown into the sea. "Scicluna The Father then explained what should be the attitude towards the priests pedophiles, referring to St. Gregory the Great," who after being brought to a profession of holiness destroys others by word, example, it would be better for him that his misdeeds were the cause of death being secular rather than sacred his office did not require it as an example for others in his sins, because basically if he fell from his torment in hell would only quality more bearable. "According to the promoter of justice appointed by the Pope," the Church has always taken care to children and weak "and considers the child" image of the disciple who wants to be great: receive the kingdom of God like a child with a pure heart is to accept with docility, abandonment, confidence, enthusiasm, hope. "But" this icon is so holy trampled, broken, muddy, abused, destroyed. "why" comes from the heart Jesus 'cry of a deep echo,' Let the children come to me do not stop, do not be stumbling on their way to me, not to hinder their spiritual progress, do not let them be seduced by the devil you do not children of the object of your lust impure ... Welcoming the Kingdom of God like a child is to accept with a pure heart, with gentleness, abandonment, confidence, enthusiasm, hope. The child reminds us all of this. All this makes the child in the eyes of God and precious in the eyes of a true disciple of Jesus As for the land becomes barren and sad the world when this picture was so beautiful and 'trampled ... How many sins in the Church for the arrogance,' s insatiable ambition, the tyranny and injustice of those who take advantage of the ministry for a career, to show off, for trivial reasons and miserable vainglory. "Also the one who arguably be the long arm of Benedict XVI in such cases serious, said another crucial passage of Sacred Scripture, that it is best to expunge the member body that infects the whole, that keep it intact or to isolate the perpetrators. "Several Fathers interpret hand, foot, eye as my friend dear to our heart, with whom we share our lives, we are bound by ties of affection, harmony and brotherhood. There 's a limit to this link ... If my friend, my companion, a person dear to me is for me an occasion of sin, is a stumbling block for me in my travels I have no other choice according to the criterion of the Lord if not to cut this link. Who would deny the agony of such a choice? Is this not a cruel amputation? Yet the Lord is clear: it is better for thee to enter alone into the kingdom, without a hand, without a foot, without an eye, which move in with my friend Geena, into the unquenchable fire. This image so strong of the limbs, body, puts us without too much fuss in front of the mirror of our conscience. "
The Catholic Church guided by the wisdom of Pope Benedict, is really experiencing a new springtime of love and faith, where harsh words out by this but Much needed, you can learn a lesson to the people, especially politicians in our Parliament, many apparently professantisi Christians, should strive to apply even in a secular state that respects the religious sensibility, the indications that come from beyond the Tiber. To which we would like to add the well-known passage from Leviticus on pederasty, transcribed, to more fully effective, in the authentic language of the Magisterium, in Latino: "Qui dormierit cum masculo coitu femineo, uterque operatus est nefas: morte moriantur; sit sanguis eorum super eos" (Lev.20,13).
E se qualche bello spirito avesse da obiettare, anche in senso anticlericale, che le pene anti pederastìa sono inapplicabili a’ tempi moderni, o che da parte della Chiesa non è il caso di insistere, si potrebbero ricordare molti casi in cui lo Stato dell’antica Roma, il quale soggiaceva a ben altra religione che la Cattolica, era assolutamente severo nei confronti dei delitti contro la pudicizia. "Ciò mosse Caio Mario, generale, allorché proclamò la legittimità dell’uccisione del tribuno militare Caio Lusio, figlio di sua sorella, da parte del soldato Caio simple uncle for daring to lure to be raped "(Valerius Maximus, that statement, VI, I 12). The great tradition of the ancient civilizations far more than Christianity, forged strict laws against sex reversal and, because those parts of the assailed population, took care to crack down with greater hardness. Fortunately, in ancient times, there was no amplification of scandalous crimes such as these makes the TV nowadays, despite the almost-spreading form of anodyne service, so of course you can choose what program to follow: the same reasoning applies to the Internet, not demonic in itself, but changing the use to which it is semi- dissolution. It 'so important that by the Holy See, which is waging a holy battle against the perversions of the world and its the same body (mystical reading of the believer), coupled with the equally sacred for the recovery of the ancient liturgy Latin language, thanks to the Motu proprio "Summorum Pontificum" who wants to celebrate the pre-conciliar rite alongside the ordinary in local languages, there has been such a magisterial authoritative indication of a clear path and clear from all forms of deviation and inferior laxity . The present time, never forgetting the message of love suggests that tolerance does not allow the rest further hesitation. Words dure e chiare, in evo oscuro. Ove senza alcun dubbio, anche tra le tempeste e le procelle quasi misteriose e la sfiducia che avvolge ciascuno nei momenti buj, mai è assente quella mano fraterna, quella Luce dell’Angelo, che presiede al reggimento degli universi. Con le ispirate parole di Gerolamo Savonarola (dalle Meditazioni sul Salmo 50): "L’abisso della misericordia è più grande dell’abisso della miseria, perciò l’abisso colmi l’abisso, l’abisso della misericordia colmi l’abisso della miseria".

Carlo Delcroix, hero of Italy and bard of pain

A soldier and hero now forgotten

Carlo Delcroix, bard of Pain

gloriously maimed in the Great War, was able to ascend to the heights of lyrical narrative
and was a symbol of the Invalides military causes - His ever-living word -

When the Lord went black enough to snatch the feeble body of the god in human form, it is natural that he resists extreme battle, but if the you win, would always be the sign. Supreme skill of the soul is to transfuse the scar, the mark of everlasting Darkness in infinite Light who can drink the miserable, the other brothers affected by pain. Could be condensed so the apostolic life of Charles Delcroix, military heroism, great Italian silver medal for Valor, a figure at the present day-in times of forgetfulness of shining examples of patriotism-mindless forgotten by many, but remembered by those who still believe the sublime virtues of sacrifice that makes a saint, in this example is to govern the survivors. In a time where some, with great difficulty, he endeavored to celebrate the one hundred fiftieth anniversary of Italian unity, while others undermine artfully, it seems to us absolutely necessary to remember this great son of our motherland, che visse sino a non molti anni fa, martoriato sì nel corpo ma lucidissimo nell’anima, trasparente megafono della vita come era anche ferita vivente della violenza che gli ghermì, senza tuttavolta fiaccarlo, le carni.
Come spiegare a’ giovani del XXI secolo chi fu, chi è ancora Carlo Delcroix? Si risponderebbe subito, senza retorica ma con convinzione assoluta: un eroe. Un eroe vero, non costrùtto nel mito, non incasellato in una bolgia di ipocrisie, non immerso in un oceano di menzogne: un eroe autentico, un apostolo del Dolore, questo "dio senza altari", come egli scrisse, che diede forza e vividità a coloro che come lui furono duramente colpiti dalla guerra. Poiché se vi fu conflitto che chiuse il Renaissance and cement forever the unity of Italy in recent weeks that we celebrate, sometimes without memory, this was the first, or the so-called "Great War". In that battle and deadly earnest of blood and glory, tens of migliaja of Italians, from the Deep South to northern lands, unironsi the Supreme Command of the King-who really personified the strength then, the lighthouse of the Nation: that King soldier was among them, in the trenches, at the conference in Peschiera defended almost Country dall'arretramento also wanted by the Allies, that Vittorio Emanuele III, who years later still guaranteed, but on the little person with his acciajo, the continuity of the state, as well as President Emeritus Ciampi has publicly acknowledged in 2003 - to accomplish the inevitable destiny. Battle felt like it was not the second war battle Holocaust, when many jumped into the burning ecstasy.

Among the many, the lieutenant of the 3rd Sharpshooters Carlo Delcroix of Florence, where he was born in August 1896, Belgian father, Italian mother: coll'ardore of twenty years had performed courageous service in the Alps, the Marmolada, conquered Col di Lana. And it was an unfortunate exercise in order to save the lives of soldiers, the incident that took place that the mutilated hands and deprived him of sight. So the story of his colleague Lieutenant Minghetti, "Delcroix was the snow, in a pool of blood. He had lost his hands and eyes and appeared injured in many other parts of the body ... limp and lifeless eyes were blood-soaked black, face and lips were swollen as the blaze burned 's explosion. Hundreds of the fragments were embedded in the whole body, especially in the 'abdomen and chest, with deep wounds ... The stumps of the arms showed a bloody mixture of muscles, tendons, nerves and bones broken up violently. "Despite the enormous losses blood, the irrepressible youth ordered him to live, and he lived. He was a devotee of the studies, and graduated in Literature and in Law. Mutilus and blind, was not in oratory, where he became teacher with unexpected skill: uttered fiery speeches to the military and civilians, in a few years became a symbol of the Maimed in Italy, where the National Association was the founder and President. Also founded and chaired the Italian Blind Union. He had a brilliant rhetoric, and escaped to the honor that's bestowed Fascism: after all, it was the regime of Benito Mussolini who had given shelter and surrender to the veterans, the disabled, war wounded, framing not only in terms and administrative work in the new nation formed by the corporate state, but had made almost a flag, a national claims of the powerful mystique. Carlo Delcroix nevertheless had a Assaji decisive and strong personality to succumb completely fascist authoritarianism. The rest of her figure was always above any suspicion of partisanship, unanimously recognized as a unifying and symbolic of the mutilated combatants authentic heroes of the Fatherland. Therefore Maimed also remained President of the Second World War, and in 1953 became Member of Parliament for the National Monarchist Party. He was a staunch supporter of the sacred figure of the Savoy monarchy which glue necessary to the construction of the country, and remained, in speeches for all Sixties held in the squares of the nation, for the PNM and then PDIUM, also known as "Stella and Corona ". Married and the father of offspring, Carlo Delcroix si spegneva ottantenne a Firenze nell’ottobre del 1977.
A noi rimane indelebile la sua parola di letterato: perché la vena poetica del Delcroix fu fervida e feconda. Chi ancor oggi, non più ristampati ma presenti nei negozi di libri vecchi, si imbatte ne "I miei Canti", in "Un uomo ed un popolo" (biografia di Mussolini commovente, alcune pagine della quale divennero antologiche: "Io non ho mai visto il Duce, ma dalla sua voce…") e "Quando c’era il Re", per citare tre fra i suoi molti libri, scopre una umanità immensa tra le piaghe dilacerate di un uomo felice anche nella sua sofferenza, e profondamente cristiano. Il libro che più disvela l’animo del letterato Delcroix è per noi "Sette Saints without candles, 1925, published, like almost everyone, from Vallecchi of Florence in its narrative in the vein of part-dannunziana pitch later when we discover the influences of the Papini-dissolves into a lyrical prose infinite, almost sperdentesi between pages but coll'immancabile thread of conviction of being the herald, the voice of incorruptible people who have no voice, the "saints without candles" in fact, the maimed who returned to their homes and have, after having shed their blood for the country, entitled to those awards that do not go out after the usual whining of the immediate. "Who knows in the iron chain hammering arms and crowns or in prison can carve stone images, and are, who knows how to draw nourishment from his wounds and inspiration from his sentence, will never be beaten, never conquered. And I'm not blind and I walk because I believe, are not a victim because lot and I love, I am not a beggar because I can and giving, I am a man to be envied or pitied, like all men, with a win more less with a weapon .... "He realizes that the monument of human suffering, the pain, he deserted the altars: it is then a priest of this god:" The man raised his stakes and are erected to all the gods but not never raised a temple to the pain: this unknown god visited people through the ages and had no home nor believers but found his revenge e la sua vittoria sono nella stessa incomprensione di quanti deprecando lo chiamano e rinnegando lo confessano non accorti di esserne invasi fino al delirio e posseduti fino allo spavento. Nessuno vi crede e tutti lo temono, nessuno lo accetta e tutti lo sentono che mai dio ebbe più testimoni e meno credenti". Adesso che si tenta pure di nascondere i testimoni contemporanei del dolore, esaltando quasi all’inverosimile il piacere pur di mascherare il resto, la voce di Carlo Delcroix appare quasi necessaria, forse più del tempo suo. Perché quando "l’umanità sarà sempre triste ma meno vile" avrà accettato, come nel dettato cristiano, il sacrificio quale "non più fato ma provvidenza: il dolore riconosciuto nume scopre il secret of his chain, announces the gifts of his penis and the regret turns into hope and the need for love. "
Delcroix's poetry is ultimately a motionless flight, in the wake of the great Italian, to the sublime purity of the wing:" I am not what more tight \\ chest in the anguish of greeting; \\ I am new, unknown child, \\ perhaps more than you expect ... nothing has changed on the hearth, \\ you are left in me that day as \\ e although I do not find me I can find; \\ give me your hand and let me go around, \\ are not yet tired of trying "(dedicated to his mother, his other son, by my songs). mists of time agonizing, even long eclipse , Codest: nevertheless, that "blood is purple in the sun", in gratitude to the soul of Delcroix, you need to keep on hoping to start a daily sprinkling of renewed life.
