Not a day passes in which the CEI did not add an element to the controversy with the DICO. The statements today the newly elected president of CEI, Archbishop Bagnasco, highlight the basics "ideology" behind the opposition to de facto couples: Bagnasco said that first, if the "objective criterion for judging good and evil" is replaced by the 'consensus' or the public, or "dressed majorities democracy but that could become widely and severely undemocratic, violent or better ", it could degenerate into" aberrations "as" legalization of incest or pedophilia among consenting persons "Bagnasco then used these as examples of supposedly democratic majorities cases of England , where "a brother and sorellahanno children, live together and love each other" and Holland, with the case of the pedophile party. Regarding this first point, I would like to make some comments. First, the concepts of good and evil objective "of" natural and unnatural "called by many Angelus the Pope, have no objective basis but a cultural one, and it's the same story to show it: with the changing times have changed the concepts of good, bad, natural and unnatural, as adjusted from time to time in the dominant power, but the CEI is also talk of "nature", "right natural, "but without explaining precisely what it is based on this" anthropological ethics policy regarding human nature, which is' primarily a matter of nature and culture "as" human nature ", has historically taken on behaviors and norms depending on the different cultures and times, unless you want to take an ethnocentric policy as the "superiority of Western civilization" Bagnasco seems then be the bearer of an original concept of democracy, which, unbound by the public, is no longer the "people power" in order to recognize their legal rights, and thus implies a change in the representation of Deputies, representatives of the people no longer but the clergy, but if a nation is not governed by the power of the people, public law, but he stood by a minority church, the alternative to "anti-democratic majorities and violent" described Bagnasco can not be a theocracy; result the inevitable disappearance of the power of the people is that the "natural and objective criterion of good and evil" is to be a substitute to the 'self-determination two consenting individuals "Finally, it is really an interest in preserving the human species to enliven the controversy of the CEI, do not see why a theme that puts more radically into question the permanence of the human race, or the global state of war in world, are placed only in rare impromptu statements of the Pope, not assuming that the current political relevance, with the vote on the refinancing of the military, might suggest. pulling the findings, it appears that the bishops' attention is focused on an attempt to change the rules of the democratic game, which fits perfectly in the status of a lack of political representation Members: practicing Catholics in Italy, ranging, according to estimates by the Catholic Alliance, between 25% and 35% (data CESNUR), less than half the Italian population, and not all are contari reforms such as the recognition Legal status of unmarried couples , or even more thorny issues such as euthanasia . Opposition to say, simple legal recognition of a major reality in the country (de facto couples are twice as many marriages, the source ISTAT), you configure and then, beyond the specific targets of the clergy, as another case (next to the refinancing of military missions, at Dal Molin, etc..) that transforms Italian democracy into an oligarchy of the "great powers". A further demonstration that the "good" is not for everyone, but those in charge.
