The Goal is the Destruction of Religion

The former Italian president of the Senate, Marcello Pera, sees behind the campaigning critics of the Church and the conflict of secularization against Christendom -- by Marcello Pera / Die Tagespost

The issue of pedophilia or homosexual priests which was recently kicked off in Germany is aimed at the Pope. Given the enormity of thinking in this project, it would be a grave mistake that the shot could not hit the mark. And an even more serious error would be the assumption that the issue finally, soon - like so many others - would be off the table. No. Here there will be a struggle. Not necessarily against the person of the Pope, as this would be hardly possible in this area. Benedikt XVI is complete in his authority, his calm, his clarity, his determination and his education. No, the battle is between secularism and Christianity. The secularists know: If a splash of mud gets on the white cassock of the Pope, the Church is dirty. And if the church is spotted, Christianity is spotted. Therefore, the secularists their campaign garnish with questions like "Who will send his children still in the church?" Or "Who will let his children still attend a Catholic school?" And "Who will be his children in a Catholic hospital or even allow a Catholic clinic to treat?"

"The material changes, but the goal remains the same: Today as always the goal is to bring about the destruction of Religion."
For some days one secularist has touched on this actual intention. She wrote: "Most of the incidents of the sex abuse of children by priests is covered up by the legitimization of the Catholic Church as a garanteur of the education of the smallest." It is unimportant, that this opinion lacks evidence, because "most of the incidents" at all costs, must be silenced: what is the percentage of priestly pedophiles? 10 Percent? All? It is also unimportant, that the judgement of logic is done without: one only needs "priests" to be replaced by "teachers", "politician" or "journalist", in order for the "legimiation" of the public schools, the parliment or the press to "cover up". Most importantly - even the apparent inaccuracy of the arguments --, what is suggested: Preists are pedophiles, consequently the Church has no moral authority, consequently Catholic mores are dangerous and consequently Christianity is a cheat and a danger.

"The destruction of Religion has therefore the destruction of Reaon in tow. Today is not a triumph of secularist Reason, rather it will lead to greater barbarism."

It operates in a greatly spread combat of secularism against Christendom. One must look to National Socialism and Communism to see something similiar. The material changes, but the goal remains the same: today as always one wants to promote and fulfill the destruction of Religion. Then Europe will pay for this fury of destruction with its freedom. It is unthinkable, that Germany of all places, that considering its own position to this high price, for which Europe had paid, rises up to beat its breast, today, in a democratic land, forgets and does not recognize, that the democracy will be lost, if Christendom is once again blotted out.

The destruction of Religion always proceeds to the destruction of Reason. Today they will not lead to a triumph of secularist reason, rather to a greater barbarism. And on an ethical level of barbarism which, kills a fetus, because his life will damage the "pyschological health" of the mother. Who, will kill an old person, because he has no more family to care for him. Who, will bring the end of his own children more quickly, because he has no consciousness and can not be healed. Who, thinks, that "Parental party A" and "Parental Party B" are the same as "Father" and "mother". Who, intend, the belief of the cocyx is interchangeable, a body part, that has is no longer taking part in development, because the person doesn't need a tailbone any more and can stand alone. And so on...

If one observes the political side of the battle of the secularists against Christendom, whose victory would lead to barbarism, wich would end with the destruction of Europe. For after the overthrow of Christendom, Multiculturalism will remain, which means, ever group has the right to its own culture. It leaves relatvism, which thinks, one culture is as good as another, and pacifism, which denies the existence of evil. Or it remains as a rhretorical and irresponsible "Europism", which declares, Europa should not have a special identity, rather contain all identities. Except one changes his opinion and goes to the Cathedral of Strassburg, in order to say: "Now we need a Christian soul of Europe".

The battle against Christendom would not be so menacing, if the Christians understood. Rather, many of them are uncomprehending. It manifests itslef in a theologian, who is frustrated by the intellectual conviction of Benedict XVI. IN certain uncertain Bishops, who insist, on finding a compromise with the modern, are the best ways and means, for an "Aggiornamento" to fulfill the christian mission. In certain Cardinals in a circle of belief, who consider, the celibacy of priests is not a dogma and perhaps should be reconsidered [+Schoenborn]. In certain gelded catholic intellectuals, who think, there is a crisis of women in the Church between Christendom and sexuality constitutes an unsolved problem. In some Bishop's Conferences, which are in the grip of protocals and -- while they want the politics of open boarders for everyone -- don't have the courage, to challenge the attacks, which are made against Christians, as well as the piety, which suffers all, when they are indiscriminately led to the dock. Or in certain chancellors from the East, who seduce a fun homosexual Foreign Minister, while she attacks the Pope in every ethical theme, or those from the West, they think, the West must secularize, and be therefore anti-Christian.

"The battle of the secularists will continue, and even if only from grounds, because he receives sustenance from a Pope like Benedict."

The battle of the secularists will continue, and even if only from the grounds, that he receives sustenance from a Pope like Benedict, who smiles, but never flinches a single milimeter. Indeed, whoever understands, why he never yields, who takes in the situation and does not wait for the next blow. Whoever only hesitates, to profess with him in solidarity, is either someone, who sneaks into hiding after the Gethsemini, or he is someone who doesn't understand why he is there.
