abortion, civil unions and divorce: what remains of the Verona Congress
Reflections and comments on what emerged from the three days dedicated to the natural family. Where the Italian state has gone to date.
I read carefully the considerations of my friend Massimo Viglione on the World Congress of Families which took place in Verona. This is a serious reflection that cannot be archived with sufficiency and that, On the contrary, deserves proper attention.
The findings it places in a constructive perspective are, Indeed, anything but unfounded.
Net of the importance of the Congress, of the excellent scientific work carried out in the workshops, and above all of the street mobilization of the people of the families - also in reaction to the vulgar and disorderly attacks -, two words must be said regarding what Viglione observed.
1) The law 194/78 It remains an absolutely unjust law how legitimate is a "heinous crime", an abominable crime, just to quote a conciliar document like Gaudium et Spes (n.51). Even from a rational point of view, the suppression of a defenseless and innocent human being can never find normative justification in a society worthy of the name. Nor can the asserted right of women to dispose of their own bodies be invoked, since through abortion the mother disposes of the body of another human being, his son.
In light of what has been said, it is clear that if it were up to Viglione and me such a law would be repealed tomorrow morning.
The point is that it doesn't apply in Italy (some might say alas) a duumvirate with absolute powers, therefore the immediate repeal of the law tout court does not appear objectively achievable.
Today, Unfortunately, the cultural and political conditions do not exist (in terms of parliamentary votes) for such a desirable hypothesis. We must always be realistic to avoid the trap of utopia. Read More
From Piazza Pulita a long report by Alessio Lasta on Verona. It begins with an excerpt of an interview carried out at the home of our Matteo Castagna (clear, precise and concise as always) and then continues with the World Congress of Families and with the friends of the Black Brain (our sponsor) e del The Firm, both clothing stores. Great space at Fortezza Europa, largest and most defined group on the Scaliger right “rising star”. Some of us are part of it as sympathizers or militants. Overall the service is biased, but it shouldn't be too surprising…
Abortion is direct, when the expulsion of the fetus is desired as a means to any end (come, ad es., to save the life of the mother who is in danger due to pregnancy) or when it is intended as an end. Therefore there is always direct abortion, when the fetus is expelled or the pregnancy is terminated. (…) Direct abortion is a grave sin and an intrinsically evil act. Prove: a) It's a special murder case: therefore prohibited by the fifth precept; b) The tradition and doctrine of the Church condemn it; c) The fetus is a man, intellectual creature, distinct from the mother. He is therefore the subject of natural rights and therefore has the right to life. Who expels the fetus from the uterus, it deprives him of the necessary condition for life, like someone who closes a man's throat, making him unable to breathe. It is a violation of the right to life. It follows then that any direct abortion can never be justified.
Maria Montessori, among the first women to graduate in Medicine in Italy and to be counted among the pioneers of feminism, she was a forerunner of gender ideology. Interesting to read what the active Catholic Princess Maria Cristina Giustiniani Bandini thought of her (1866-1959), which, precisely because it is Catholic, it has been locked away by the secular intelligentsia:
