Faith and credulity

14 October 2007, Jerome Ferlito Stampa articolo Segnala articolo

credulone As the best dictionary defines the word "credulity"? Being credulo, naivety! How many games of words could be understood with this meaning? But in the end always achieve the same result, the issue that determines the credulity: 'existence of credulone! The naive for excellence, one who "believes very easily" (same definition that would be in any vocabulary). The world is full, but it is even more of the topics that determine the same credulity: horoscopes, religions, different beliefs alternative, the words of politicians, the promises of love, trust in a friend; all this could and in fact is the subject of credulity. It seems to be always the dominant engine of itself, a lifeblood without which you may find with bitterness and disgust that life at the end has to stop.

Why this concept so redundant almost cacofonico? For the simple fact that in most cases you hang something for fear of death, after which there is nothing concrete or all, for fear of being judged (this a little 'Less popular in recent years) and the fear that all this life has been useless. The same concept of "I" removes any doubt about the power contradictory but at the same time amalgamante and misleading of religion (in this case Christian): "formula that includes all the truth that a Christian is obliged to believe by faith." Equivoca heavy and the word "view" that emphasizes the power of the Catholic Church binding on the believer and denotes nothing like the Christian religion free, leaving his follower as ottusamente theological distracted want to believe those who follow lessons "free" catechism.

In that sense it wants to place the emphasis on historical legacies that we found a little 'everywhere in Italy and even more descending towards the countries of the South or doing a lap of each region inland italica: Churches. There are villages where the churches are the only historical relevance, where the entire conurbation has sacrificed resources and time to erect one of them. And how many donations, wealth, favouritism, pass the Church and its prelates has obtained during the times? Certainly nevertheless persecution and even of nefandezze and murders committed against those who were considered Eretico.

Even today, someone goes to church! It seems strange but somehow Church on Sundays and feast days are population (often only in the latter case). There must be more than surprising given that both Catholicism and other religions sisters among their ranks ranks of thinkers, writers, artists (unless in the Middle Ages is painted only and always subject sacred because it had not choice), political , Scientists and even homosexuals. It is obvious that we separate them not for a self-evident racism but because we believe it is grotesque by the Church the "miserable" attempt to bring up "choices of love" as disease and still heresy in 2007. We realize that this framework while 15.2% of the population declares itself atheist (data in hand numbers are concerned), there is the other side a world of creduloni ready to include in every area of secularism and human freedom a sermon to learn it by heart.
