When you have nothing to say ... it's a good idea to keep quiet. This
recommend prudence and good sense.
But it seems that the Catholic Church, disturbed and upset these days, the whirlwind of revelations and allegations about of cases of pedophilia among its members have lost their traditional caution and common sense with it.
seems, in fact, that its exponents, in another unsuccessful attempt to defend himself, deflecting the accusations addressed to them and to assume the role of victims, rather than the persecutors, have been lavished in a race, a succession of statements personal, that far from raising, alas, the desired effect, have achieved the result instead of further complicate the story and really wanted to defend that position, calling on himself, entirely free of criticism from people, organizations and communities who were not in any way been implicated.
I understand that when it feels threatened, it moves sprawling and aimless, but by an organization as old and tried, I would sincerely expected more composure and attention.
I obviously specific reference to recent statements by the Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Holy See, which from its material and spiritual authorities ruled: " is time to stop these attacks always only the Catholic Church. Many sociologists, psychologists and psychiatrists have shown that there is no connection between celibacy and pedophilia, but many others have shown - I have said recently - that there is a relationship between homosexuality and pedophilia, and there is the problem ".
As a psychiatrist I would ask the Cardinal Bertone, possibly separately in respect of privacy, the names of these influential gentlemen, who came and told him these extraordinary and innovative ideas and conclusions, in terms of relations between homosexuality and pedophilia, discoveries, however, still ignored by the scientific community that deals specifically with these issues.
This is because as soon as you make those statements, and not with friends at the bar eating breakfast in the morning, but by ' top of your authority, you assume the whole responsibility of what it says.
I learned this morning from the news radio that the Vatican was given the usual explanation and clarification to the effect that the statements by the Cardinal Secretary of State on only members of the clergy. I honestly do not see what constitutes the difference.
In terms of caution in the statements then, but I will not rage, I must, for the record, quote the statement, only a few days ago, the Bishop Emeritus of Grosseto, Giacomo Babini: " behind the scandal of pedophile priests in reality lies a maneuver deicides Freemasons and Jews, the Zionist enemy attack ever of Catholicism, the Church and the Pope "and still " The Holocaust was a real shame for all humanity, but it should be watch without rhetoric and with watchful eyes. Do not think that Hitler was just crazy. The truth is that the criminal Nazi fury was unleashed for the excesses and economic mismanagement of the Jews strangling the German economy. Germany was tired of the harassment of those who practiced usury interest rates..
course in the aftermath of these statements and that they have provoked indignant protests, was followed by the inevitable explanations, clarifications, denials, corrections, taken away ....
item sen fled?
In these troubled times and perilous recommend reading Dinouart Abbot of the golden book "The art of silence".
