"The extraordinary fact." Manuel García Morente. April 29, 1937


conversion Manuel García Morente, Professor of Ethics at the University of Madrid, and in 1936, dean of the Faculty of Philosophy, became the twentieth century, in a of the most important intellectual and religious world of our country. We have a unique document, as it is the first person narrative of the road that ran up to meet God. The same in September 1940 drafted a comprehensive account of his conversion in the desert a few days of prayer. The manuscript - "sixty dense pages "- it keeps one of his daughters, Maria Josefa, who found among his papers after his death. The only interest that led him to write it was to make it known to her spiritual director at the Seminary of Madrid, José María Garcia Lahiguera.'s intention was to open his soul Morente who knew him and he could focus, overcoming his embarrassment and shame, to tell what happened that night from 29 to 30 April 1937. Before anyone had talked about his conversion in such detail, but above all, of what happened after his conversion, which he calls "extraordinary event". I trust the desire to know your opinion and advice "and not return or even allude to it even with yourself." Neither García Morente, or his spiritual director, as he lived, never taught or discussed in this document, which was not made public until after his death. "I liked the silence," the same Garcia Lahiguera. "He humbly accepted, then pry or indirectly, in my opinion. This is a sacrifice of curiosity and genuine humility! Died, then, without knowing my opinion on the fact the largest of its life". The "extraordinary event" happens in Paris, where García Morente, exiled after the political assassination of a relative. This is a piece of the story:


were radiating French music: end of a symphony, Cesar Frank, then the piano, pour une infante Pavanne deceased, Ravel, then in orchestra, a piece entitled Berlioz L'enfance de Jesus ... When finished, shut the radio not to disturb the peace in a state of delightful music that had engulfed me and my mind began to march, but I could resist them, images of the childhood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Vile in imagination walk from the hand of the Virgin Mary, or sitting on a bench and looking with big eyes astonished to St. Joseph and Mary (...) And so gradually become enlarged in my soul man's vision of Christ nailed to the cross on an eminence overlooking a vast landscape, an endless plain swarming men, women and children, where extended arms of our Lord crucified. And the arms of Christ grew and grew and seemed to embrace all that suffering humanity and cover it with the immensity of his love. And the cross went up, went up to heaven and filled the area around and behind it rose too many ... Rose all, no one left behind, just me, stuck in the ground away at the top saw Christ surrounded by the endless swarm of those who went with him ...

I doubt that this kind of vision was not product of imagination excited by the sweet music of Berlioz and penetrating, but he had an explosive effect on my soul that is God, that is the true God , the living God, this is Providence alive, I told myself. That is the God who understands men living with men who suffer with them, comforts them, that gives encouragement and brings salvation. If God had not come into the world, if God had not made flesh in the world, man would have no salvation because between God and man would always be an infinite distance that he could never cross man ... But the distance between my poor humanity and God theoretical philosophy I had been impassable, too far, too alien, too abstract, too geometric and inhuman. But Christ, God made man, Christ suffering like me more than me, much more than me, that yes I understand it and that yes I understand. In that yes I can give my will filial whole life behind. In that yes I can ask, because I know for certain that knows what to ask and I know for a fact that gives and will always, as a whole has given us men. To pray, pray! And his knees began to babble the Lord's Prayer and horror! Don José María, I forgot!

knelt mind giving me a great time our Lord Jesus Christ with the words that occurred to me good. I remembered my childhood, I remembered my mother whom I lost when I was nine years old, I pictured her face clearly, the lap that I laid still on his knees to pray with her. Slowly, patiently I remember bits of the Father, some occurred to me in French, but reinstating faithfully translate the English text. After an hour of effort I managed to restore intact the sacred text, and wrote in a notebook. Also I reset the Hail Mary. But here I could not pass. The Creed I completely resisted, and the Salve and my Lord Jesus Christ. I had to be content with the Our Father I read in my paper, not daring to trust in a memory so hard restored and the Hail Mary I repeated many times until the two sentences were to me perfectly and recorded in memory. A great peace had taken hold of my soul ...

wall in her little clock rang twelve o'clock. The night was calm and very clear. In my soul extraordinary peace reigned. Here is a place in my memories as thorough. I must have fallen asleep. My memory picks up the thread of events in the time under the impression I woke with a start inexplicable. I can not say exactly what he felt: fear, anxiety, apprehension, confusion, feeling of something huge, formidable, indescribable, it would happen right now, at this very moment, without delay. I stood around shivering and opened wide the window. A breath of fresh air struck my face. I turned my face into the room and I was petrified. There was him I did not see, not hear, I did not touch him, but he was there.

In the room there was more light than a light bulb of these tiny, one or two candles, in a corner. I saw nothing, heard nothing, did not touch anything, I had no sensation, but he was there. I remained motionless, stiff with emotion. And I felt. Feel his presence with the same clarity with which I perceive the paper I'm writing, and letters, black on white, I'm drawing, but I had no feeling or sight or hearing, or touch, or smell, or taste. However, we sensed there with complete clarity, and could not fit me no doubt it was him, because he sensed even without sensation. How is this possible? I do not know, but I know he was there this and that I do not see or hear or smell, or taste, or touch anything, I perceived with absolute and unquestionable evidence. If I shows that it was he or I was delirious, I will have nothing to answer to the show, but as soon as memory is the memory upgrade will arise in me the unshakable conviction that it was him, because I've seen.

I do not know how long I remained motionless, as if hypnotized at their presence. I do know that I dared not move and that he wished that all this - him there - will last forever, because their presence so overwhelmed me and so intimate joy that nothing compares to the joy I felt superhuman. It was like a suspension of everything in the body weight. When did he stay in there? Nor do I know. Done. She vanished. A split second before he was there, and I perceived, and I was flooded with superhuman joy that I said. A split second later, he was not there. There was no one in the room, I was already heavily weigh on the ground and felt my limbs m holding force by the natural effort of the muscles.

knelt mind giving me a great time our Lord Jesus Christ with the words that occurred to me good. I remembered my childhood, I remembered my mother whom I lost when I was nine years old, I pictured her face clearly, the lap that I laid still on his knees to pray with her. Slowly, patiently I remember bits of the Father, some occurred to me in French, but reinstating faithfully translate the English text. After an hour of effort I managed to restore intact the sacred text, and wrote in a notebook. Also I reset the Hail Mary. But here I could not pass. The Creed I completely resisted, and the Salve and my Lord Jesus Christ. I had to be content with the Our Father I read in my paper, not daring to trust in a memory so hard restored and the Hail Mary I repeated many times until the two sentences were to me perfectly and recorded in memory. A great peace had taken hold of my soul ...

wall in her little clock rang twelve o'clock. The night was calm and very clear. In my soul extraordinary peace reigned. Here is a place in my memories as thorough. I must have fallen asleep. My memory picks up the thread of events in the time under the impression I woke with a start inexplicable. I can not say exactly what he felt: fear, anxiety, apprehension, confusion, feeling of something huge, formidable, indescribable, it would happen right now, at this very moment, without delay. I stood around shivering and opened wide the window. A breath of fresh air struck my face. I turned my face into the room and I was petrified. There was him I did not see, not hear, I did not touch him, but he was there.

In the room there was more light than a light bulb of these tiny, one or two candles, in a corner. I saw nothing, heard nothing, did not touch anything, I had no sensation, but he was there. I remained motionless, stiff with emotion. And I felt. Feel his presence with the same clarity with which I perceive the paper I'm writing, and letters, black on white, I'm drawing, but I had no feeling or sight or hearing, or touch, or smell, or taste. However, we sensed there with complete clarity, and could not fit me no doubt it was him, because he sensed even without sensation. How is this possible? I do not know, but I know he was there this and that I do not see or hear or smell, or taste, or touch anything, I perceived with absolute and unquestionable evidence. If I shows that it was he or I was delirious, I will have nothing to answer to the show, but as soon as memory is the memory upgrade will arise in me the unshakable conviction that it was him, because I've seen.

I do not know how long I remained motionless, as if hypnotized at their presence. I do know that I dared not move and that he wished that all this - him there - will last forever, because their presence so overwhelmed me and so intimate joy that nothing compares to the joy I felt superhuman. It was like a suspension of everything in the body weight. When did he stay in there? Nor do I know. Done. She vanished. A split second before he was there, and I perceived, and I was flooded with superhuman joy that I said. A split second later, he was not there. There was no one in the room, I was already heavily weigh on the ground and felt my limbs m holding force by the natural effort of the muscles.

Should You Get A Tattoo If You Have Urticaria

The abuse of children by Catholic priests

Por su interés pongo a continuación el articulo that on the day of Mario Conde
published today on his blog / forum:

REFLECTIONS ON SEXUAL ABUSE OF CHILDREN COMMITTED BY CATHOLIC PRIESTS.

Campaign "against the Catholic Church?.

loa

Regardless of attacks that may occur, including apologies, between the Catholic and Anglican churches, regardless of unfortunate comparisons subsequently denied willingly or good strength, you never know, the abuses, the appalling abuses on minors by Catholic priests have admitted, much to his regret-in the order of the current concerns of many citizens. Since then Spain, during Easter vacation this difficult person hold a dinner conversation without at some point the issue arose, and was born with dyes of scorn, condemnation and fear it generates. A few minutes of reflection may not be idle.

Above all it is said that there is a campaign against the Catholic Church resulting from this case. To use this word properly we need the media to disseminate "news" with repetition, emphasis and treachery, approached from different angles and with deliberate and conscious purpose to harm the players, over the mission to inform, that is, becoming interested agents of disinformation. But we will face only "campaign" if the news is false, or if one argues about half-truths, or simply be inflationary the importance of an event using disproportionate typefaces, because those who run the media are aware that the scope of a "news" not only depends on the event itself, the story it contains, but also and most fundamentally, as submitted, the typeface used, the place in the pages of the newspaper or in programming for radio or television. A minor news that is front page headline in five columns or TV news opens, passes, by that very fact, to become more news. The form becomes, journalistic and socially-in substance. The view apparently supported by facts becomes mode-of-thinking recipients. Not all, of course, because the intensity of the effect depends on the education of readers and listeners, but in this educational segment unfortunately do not have too much slack to maintain optimism founded with much of our society. If we accept these premises by placing the concept of campaign, it seems that in this narrow sense can speak properly of media campaign against the Catholic Church. Because and the news is, unfortunately, false, or the importance of the matter claimed under typefaces. Upside: Perhaps the wonder generated by the knowledge of the facts would claim to shout less noise, to avoid excessive social concern, to put hateful terminology, but such a request can not be met precisely because it is a fact social importance and must be known to act accordingly.

subtle campaign could lead to the "extrapolation" or "generalization." To put it more clear: to convey the impression that the Catholic Church child abuse practiced regularly. It would consistent with reality. At least with the data available to date. There are certainly many cases of abuse. Some have come to light. Others do not. Surely we will have new events of this miserable sport in the future. "Inevitable.? But always generalize by saying that Catholic education in an environment such abuses do not occur would be to date with the data we have an incontestable truth. The contrary would be an overgeneralization. To attack the generalization has to resort to statistics, percentages ... evil way, of course, since this falls in the quantitative dynamics, when a single case of abuse, only one, is terrible enough to make in certain statistics safe to be developed. How to say "only" a thousand children, or whatever, were abused on hundreds of thousands who lived their Catholic education in classrooms around the world?. Astray, and, as I say, while it is almost inevitable cross it to try to break the possible generalization. Sometimes the remedy is in worse condition than the disease. Are there campaign in this sense of over-generalization?. Quite possibly yes, but subtle it is not needed over the technique because the data in isolation is sufficiently dramatic, as seen with total clarity when dealing in ordinary conversations. In any If the number of children become victims of such crime is large enough so that society perceives to generalize the fact dyes. What is inevitable is that many Catholics perceive the information as a campaign. Inevitable. We sail the seas of the beliefs, territories domain of emotion. We must be aware of it.

And against Benedict XVI, there campaign?.

The question is on my side this answer: It depends, of course. If this proves true some information to suggest that someone who was knowledgeable committed abuses and not reported but, in contrast, allowed the subject abuser to remain in positions where they could continue to commit outrages of this size, unfortunately, were executed, in this case, like it or not, would have responsibility. Regardless of its legal qualification, which is of less significance in this moment of the story, the moral would be, and this would, again, at this point in the story, more than enough when it comes to a spiritual leader, not a else but the most important day on earth today. Therefore, there would be no campaign. In another case, of course. And worst kind because he attributed responsibility by omission or commission by omission molestation of minors is the worst thing that can be released. What do we know?. I do nothing or very little. References in the media. It is not enough to express my views in either direction. Someone argued that the Pope has referred the matter on several occasions in terms of disqualification can not doubt. Specifically in the pastoral letter the bishops of Ireland on Saturday March 20 2010 stated: "On several occasions since my election to the See of Peter, I have met with victims of sexual abuse and I am willing to do so in future . I spoke with them, heard their stories, I found her suffering, I prayed with them and for them. Earlier in my pontificate, concerned to address this issue, I asked the bishops of Ireland, during the visit ad removed from 2006 that "establish the truth of what happened in the past, to take all necessary measures to prevent it from occurring again, to ensure that the principles of justice are fully respected and, above all, to heal the victims and all those affected by these egregious crimes "(Address to the Bishops of Ireland on October 28, 2006)."

Someone may say they are well and are just that, but if it proves true that he was concealing pronounces moral of these crimes, words can not erase the fact but will endow of additional gravity. And it would be difficult counterarguments. Thus the key lies, once again, under the dictatorship of fact: it happened or not happened. I have no data to decide about the pontiff. Natural tendency to believe in innocence. Not only for the legal presumption but for individual comfort. You have to place the issue, therefore, at this moment, in the organization, in the Church.

Is extrapolated to the Church Catholic priests action?.

In this case the extrapolation to the Church as an Organization the behavior of individuals is not entirely illegitimate. The Church is an organization. It is also a state, but now has as an organization. I do not need space consumption and words to demonstrate it. The priests, in their different positions, are members of the organization and responsible for transmitting values \u200b\u200beducation-in-Catholics. Not just with words but above all with his conduct. Therefore, a single priest but the organization does repetition of abuses in different historical periods in different countries and with different criminals, no choice but to admit that it is attributable to the organization as such. "The theft of a branch manager is enough to qualify the bank to which it belongs?. No. But I say attitude is not widespread large-directors-bent on stealing some customers, yes that is attributable to the banking organization, at least by the imputation of negligence. And the bank should be especially diligent with deposits of money from their customers, they are based on confidence in the institution. Furthermore, a lot of sake, the Church must be especially diligent in keeping the physical and moral integrity of children placed with her for their education, relying on the moral integrity of those who will impart Catholic values \u200b\u200bthat caused the choice of school.

This award belongs in law the notion of responsibility. It is not that the Church decided voluntarily compensate the victims of abuses by their priests but must do so under the laws of the State. And here again we entered an area where this should walk with care and without bias. The priests live in a legal environment dominated by the state. Children are people on duty holding the State. It allows the Catholic parochial school or any other characterization, provided, of course, that behavior within schools do not violate state law. Not only in the commission of criminal conduct (abuse) but in the ideological, such as, for example, celebrate racism, xenophobia, violence and other similar genetic language. The Church as an organization, the Catholic and other, are not ready to handle any bull exempting them meet state standards. To these must be adjusted, and as long as education of children managed with the utmost care. Therefore, if there was abuse, accountability, at least in eligendo, as lawyers say, there, and the injured party has the right to claim reparation for the courts of the State. To argue, as some If I read that the priests are not "employees" of the Church, is almost worse. Not worth commenting. And I repeat that this is not the Church, Catholic or otherwise, voluntarily compensate the victims. It is to be seen to do so legally compelled to do so, regardless of the moral impulses that everyone wants to feel. And this is a particularly serious matter because, at least according to some reports, in some cases the compensation offered and so had met as an efficient cause not the desire to repair the harm done but the attempt to prevent evil from becoming known to society . That is, this was the price of concealment. Bad thing, because worsens even more the perception.

"" Crime sollicitationis "existed?. Is it in force?.

And this attitude may derive from the consciousness of some church-it seems-that dirty linen is washed at home. Not so. The Church, the Catholic and other, which imparts education missions operating from inside to outside your house, because it casts over society. Your order measure, its legal structure, no clashes in these areas with their own state. It is just different circles. A homicide committed in a religious building is homicide prosecuted by the appropriate instance of the state. If the church hides it commits obstruction of justice in its different rules. You can, if desired, to judge according to their rules and handing down guilty verdicts in the moral order. May, if its law, excommunicate, for example. But do not detain the murderer. Or challenge the ruling that the state dictates. Or supplant the state, nor prevent its action. Respect their decisions, like any other, and if desired, dictate their convictions on the orders of its own.

Was this the attitude of the Church always, at all times and in all places?. Say no. Crime sollicitationis is, apparently, a document which required the bishops to silence and secrecy of cases of child sexual abuse. The document was prepared by the Holy Office (today the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith) in 1962, and contains a set of instructions to bishops on how to handle cases of "worst crime." Ie, cases in which priests are involved in sex with animals, people or children. And those who use confessions to secure sexual favors from the faithful. Crime

Sollicitationis

secretly called to handle such cases and secrecy extends to the same document. The penalty for violation confidentiality include excommunication, which can only be withdrawn by the Pope himself. In response, the Catholic Church argued that the policy of secrecy not to conceal the crimes include pedophilia committed by priests. The hierarchies of the Vatican State claimed further that the provisions contained in the 1962 document has no binding value after the entry into force of provisions in 1983 reformed the Code of Canon Law. But others want to hold the opposite view a letter by the then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger entitled "De delictis gravioribus " of May 18, 2001. With that date

Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger sent a letter " delictis gravioribus " ("Rules of most serious crimes") to the bishops of the entire Catholic Church and other ordinary and higher, announcing what acts "most serious were reserved" the only view of his congregation.

Are some of these documents and their contents?. I do not have them, so the statements should be careful not to pass, for now, a "they say and it seems that a certain foundation." I suppose that if they continue the proceedings in the U.S. but sooner or later will have to see the light court, not just the media, because the latter too often nothing more than a dark nothing bright.

But regardless of past performance we are in the present, today, against the abuses and tested, and analyzing the reaction that governs the restoration of the violated legal and moral. Rapists priests should be treated as what they are: criminals who must also attend highly qualified aggravated abuse of superiority. Sean Catholics, Buddhists, Hindus, Quakers, or preachers of any doctrine born of pregnant occurrences of creative imagination.

Because not only live in the Church abuses. Not even seem to preference. Unfortunately arise where the man, wearing a cassock or oriental sports apparel, exercise any form of domination over individuals as helpless as children. We read news apparently terrifying elite gyms, whose elitism is barbaric abuses and alleged implementation with arguments that are no more excuses indecent miserable. And out of gym clubs of different coats ... So, in a wide range of instruments at the service of smelly. In any case, state law should be applicable, nobody can be immune to such crimes, or civil or criminal.

Could that be the case were accused Benedict XVI in the U.S. as some claim?. Criminally not see it. Civilly, perhaps, but in this case not as individuals but as the highest authority of an organization that would be liable. I say possible because I do not know the legal mechanisms for prosecution of a State (Vatican) in another state. I do not know if you can also sue the Church as an organization in a State, the U.S., for example, whether the Vatican is another State. I think there are pronouncements of American justice, or American political authorities, I have no certainty, in the sense that Benedict XVI, in his capacity as head of state, enjoys immunity, and there is a prior precedent, also Texas, on John Paul II. But some say that the issue remains open, at least in the civil field.

celibacy and pedophilia

is somewhat understandable that the enemies of the Catholic Church take advantage of the trip to highlight what they see as hindrances incomprehensible, and particularly the celibacy. In addition to questioning itself as absurd repression of sexuality inherent in every human being, to deny its increased effectiveness in the service of spirituality, place him now as one of the causes of pedophilia, so that maintenance mandatory within the Church would be to work as the inevitable commission of further crimes of abuse arising precisely from sexual repression to which subjects the priests in charge of educating children.

What is it?. Celibacy Is the cause of pedophilia?. Is it, even, a driver, an accelerator or a promoter of such diversion?. I have no response capability. I have read positions of either gender theorists from specialists. Do the emotions, beliefs, may influence the conclusions supposedly technical?. I have no doubt, either in this or any other matter. The strength of the emotions is enormous, and the possibility of succumbing to it, unquestionably. Even in many cases there is a voluntary surrender to the emotions because it is more comforting than analytical.

not advocating celibacy, or bring it into question now. We try to pedophilia. The bachelor does not harm anyone, in any event itself, if true certain specialist positions Psychology and Psychiatry. But yes pederast. A view is. And there are many cases of pedophiles who are neither celibate nor are ordained priests. Global pedophilia is not quantitatively more numerous agents Catholic priests. One thinks of what one thinks of the Catholic Church seems indisputable fact. Another Thing is socially a priest pedophilia is more legally objectionable ("abuse of authority") than another, precisely because that position of superiority and attribute a moral preacher unscathed. But that does not allow a direct psychological connection between celibacy and pedophilia, because there not celibate pedophiles and child molesters are not celibate.

course it is not efficient cause, would it work as an accelerator or stimulating the fact of a repressed sexuality?. It may be, of course it can be. But if we admit that pedophilia is a disease, the operating parameters of the pathological part of that property. In other words: any know what most stimulates the pederast. The world of sex, sexual stimuli, is certainly terra incognita, and the sexual diseases, much more. "Celibacy?. Can be accelerated. "Injuries in the unconscious?. Maybe. At last, a road fraught with questions that have a potential response could be. And this, of course, whether the church should or should not abolish the celibacy issue that's none of my business.

What has alarmed me most is the assertion, which appears to be unfounded, that pedophilia is noticeable at times early age. Certainly there are pedophiles that begin with the barbaric age. But that's not what I say, but according to some psychologists, the trend is noticeable from pedophilia, for example, ten or twelve years. The individual feels that pathological tilt. Perceived inside and even outside. And this is particularly serious because in the moment of our society that perception invites two seemingly contradictory behaviors: first, the concealment. Alternatively, the search for more suitable places to practice with as much impunity as possible.

And the Catholic Church thus becomes the scene perfect. First, because it is known, canonical rules aside, the tendency to conceal cases committed in its midst. Second, because the Church is always more powerful than the isolated individual. Third, because in the case of word against word, the priest's theory comes equipped with a plus of credibility. Fourth, the education of children is the main activity of the Church. Fifth, because facing the superiority of every teacher, the priest manages another plus qualitative: it is the way to eternal life. Could be forced to continue with the anatomy of the scene, but I do not worthwhile. Is sufficient, in view of the brutality of the consequences of the values \u200b\u200bat stake.

If so, it is clear that the Church should put special emphasis on the selection of priests. For this, and other functions, seminar is available. A psychological analysis prior to ordination seems essential.

But the question is: just by the Church?. What should government do? Is it mission delegated?. To dispel doubts begin with questions, it is method that usually works. Are nationals of the State Children? Does my state custody and physical and mental? Should control the emotional stability and internal balance of all those engaged in collective superiority over a sensitive and helpless as children? Should look to those exercising physical education teachers? And to those who hold gyms and similar places? What about the children who claim to cults?

must distinguish between what we should do and how to implement it. It is perhaps difficult, but inevitable to find a solution. And no one can be exempted. Especially if experience shows the need. It is not without risk area because, for example, under this psychological analysis of the state could not issue certificates of fitness to master not based on psychological disorders but seeking the party who provided part of the tenets of the ruling in question that can be enemy of the Church, for example. Trust in the technical, in the honesty of their opinions, in unwavering moral of those who practice medicine in its various branches? We see that a law on abortion was converted into a loophole for the lax technical professionals and look away from politicians who called themselves pro-life advocates and postualdos of Catholicism. Right. Nothing is without risk. is the eternal problem of defining, choosing values \u200b\u200bat stake, prioritize properly, seek not eliminate risk because the risks living men will live in our social life. Deciding to take the risk involved. No decision is a decision that takes all the risks at the time.

Surely someone want to go further and argue that: we admit that mental illness in the West, with almost infinite variety, is installed in increasing order. Let us now find the reasons and facts. Too many people hold some form of mental pathology. And, of course, such deficiencies are particularly sensitive when they exercise subjects affected by some form of power. For example, judges. Should I undergo regular psychological analysis before entering and during exercise of its function?. I have no doubt. And I rely on experience. Can issue certificates of physical caregiver without such analysis, especially when you are exercising the function of children's groups? I have no doubt. Should the state delegate to the Catholic Church and the exclusive mission?. Not exclusively. That is, not without further consideration that being a Catholic Church, because the experience that we face. What then? Find a solution mechanism. You need to think and find solutions to this problem

already skeptical that psychological tests are not an endangered species. And very possibly have a considerable background ratio. The mind is so complex that it can build its defense mechanisms against invasive techniques. Okay, but something must be done and this is what we have at hand. At least not to sin

negligence is true that, as I say, increasing mental disorders cause much damage in different orders. Since we can not address all of the time we start with the groups most vulnerable. A priest, a teacher, a guru can do much harm to children. A judge can produce a paper, a simple paper, which deprives a man of liberty. Knowing who is falsely convicted. Knowing who sacrifices freedom for obedience ideological, political reward, equity or lust reincremento deriavdas of self-consciousness of mediocrity. If it acts in the best case the injured party is entitled to compensation of the few euros that not even the judge are claimed in what is called "way back." We can not change all the time But it is urgent work in the mission of our times.

The abuse of children by Catholic priests

REFLECTIONS ON SEXUAL ABUSE OF CHILDREN COMMITTED BY CATHOLIC PRIESTS.

Campaign "against the Catholic Church?.

loa

Regardless of attacks that may occur, including apologies, between the Catholic and Anglican churches, regardless of unfortunate comparisons subsequently denied willingly or good strength, you never know, the abuses, the appalling abuses on minors by Catholic priests have admitted, much to his regret-in the order of the current concerns of many citizens.

A few minutes of reflection may not be idle.

Above all it is said that there is a campaign against the Catholic Church resulting from this case. To use this word properly we need the media to disseminate "news" with repetition, emphasis and treachery, approached from different angles and with deliberate and conscious purpose to harm the players, over the mission to inform, that is, becoming interested agents of disinformation.

It would consistent with reality. At least with the data available to date. There are certainly many cases of abuse. Some have come to light. Others do not.

To attack the generalization has to resort to statistics, percentages ... evil way, of course, since this falls in the quantitative dynamics, when a single case of abuse, only one, is terrible enough to make in certain statistics safe to be developed. How to say "only" a thousand children, or whatever, were abused on hundreds of thousands who lived their Catholic education in classrooms around the world?. Astray, and, as I say, while it is almost inevitable cross it to try to break the possible generalization. Sometimes the remedy is in worse condition than the disease. Are there campaign in this sense of over-generalization?. Quite possibly yes, but subtle it is not needed over the technique because the data in isolation is sufficiently dramatic, as seen with total clarity when dealing in ordinary conversations. In any If the number of children become victims of such crime is large enough so that society perceives to generalize the fact dyes. What is inevitable is that many Catholics perceive the information as a campaign. Inevitable. We sail the seas of the beliefs, territories domain of emotion. We must be aware of it.

And against Benedict XVI, there campaign?.

The question is on my side this answer: It depends, of course. If this proves true some information to suggest that someone who was knowledgeable committed abuses and not reported but, in contrast, allowed the subject abuser to remain in positions where they could continue to commit outrages of this size, unfortunately, were executed, in this case, like it or not, would have responsibility. Regardless of its legal qualification, which is of less significance in this moment of the story, the moral would be, and this would, again, at this point in the story, more than enough when it comes to a spiritual leader, not a else but the most important day on earth today. Therefore, there would be no campaign. In another case, of course. And worst kind because he attributed responsibility by omission or commission by omission molestation of minors is the worst thing that can be released. What do we know?. I do nothing or very little. References in the media. It is not enough to express my views in either direction. Someone argued that the Pope has referred the matter on several occasions in terms of disqualification can not doubt. Specifically in the pastoral letter the bishops of Ireland on Saturday March 20 2010 stated: "On several occasions since my election to the See of Peter, I have met with victims of sexual abuse and I am willing to do so in future . I spoke with them, heard their stories, I found her suffering, I prayed with them and for them. Earlier in my pontificate, concerned to address this issue, I asked the bishops of Ireland, during the visit ad removed from 2006 that "establish the truth of what happened in the past, to take all necessary measures to prevent it from occurring again, to ensure that the principles of justice are fully respected and, above all, to heal the victims and all those affected by these egregious crimes "(Address to the Bishops of Ireland on October 28, 2006)."

Someone may say they are well and are just that, but if it proves true that he was concealing pronounces moral of these crimes, words can not erase the fact but will endow of additional gravity. And it would be difficult counterarguments. Thus the key lies, once again, under the dictatorship of fact: it happened or not happened. I have no data to decide about the pontiff. Natural tendency to believe in innocence. Not only for the legal presumption but for individual comfort. You have to place the issue, therefore, at this moment, in the organization, in the Church.

Is extrapolated to the Church Catholic priests action?.

In this case the extrapolation to the Church as an Organization the behavior of individuals is not entirely illegitimate. The Church is an organization. It is also a state, but now has as an organization. I do not need space consumption and words to demonstrate it. The priests, in their different positions, are members of the organization and responsible for transmitting values \u200b\u200beducation-in-Catholics. Not just with words but above all with his conduct. Therefore, a single priest but the organization does repetition of abuses in different historical periods in different countries and with different criminals, no choice but to admit that it is attributable to the organization as such. "The theft of a branch manager is enough to qualify the bank to which it belongs?. No. But I say attitude is not widespread large-directors-bent on stealing some customers, yes that is attributable to the banking organization, at least by the imputation of negligence. And the bank should be especially diligent with deposits of money from their customers, they are based on confidence in the institution. Furthermore, a lot of sake, the Church must be especially diligent in keeping the physical and moral integrity of children placed with her for their education, relying on the moral integrity of those who will impart Catholic values \u200b\u200bthat caused the choice of school.

This award belongs in law the notion of responsibility. It is not that the Church decided voluntarily compensate the victims of abuses by their priests but must do so under the laws of the State. And here again we entered an area where this should walk with care and without bias. The priests live in a legal environment dominated by the state. Children are people on duty holding the State. It allows the Catholic parochial school or any other characterization, provided, of course, that behavior within schools do not violate state law. Not only in the commission of criminal conduct (abuse) but in the ideological, such as, for example, celebrate racism, xenophobia, violence and other similar genetic language. The Church as an organization, the Catholic and other, are not ready to handle any bull exempting them meet state standards. To these must be adjusted, and as long as education of children managed with the utmost care. Therefore, if there was abuse, accountability, at least in eligendo, as lawyers say, there, and the injured party has the right to claim reparation for the courts of the State. To argue, as some If I read that the priests are not "employees" of the Church, is almost worse. Not worth commenting. And I repeat that this is not the Church, Catholic or otherwise, voluntarily compensate the victims. It is to be seen to do so legally compelled to do so, regardless of the moral impulses that everyone wants to feel. And this is a particularly serious matter because, at least according to some reports, in some cases the compensation offered and so had met as an efficient cause not the desire to repair the harm done but the attempt to prevent evil from becoming known to society . That is, this was the price of concealment. Bad thing, because worsens even more the perception.

"" Crime sollicitationis "existed?. Is it in force?.

And this attitude may derive from the consciousness of some church-it seems-that dirty linen is washed at home. Not so. The Church, the Catholic and other, which imparts education missions operating from inside to outside your house, because it casts over society. Your order measure, its legal structure, no clashes in these areas with their own state. It is just different circles. A homicide committed in a religious building is homicide prosecuted by the appropriate instance of the state. If the church hides it commits obstruction of justice in its different rules. You can, if desired, to judge according to their rules and handing down guilty verdicts in the moral order. May, if its law, excommunicate, for example. But do not detain the murderer. Or challenge the ruling that the state dictates. Or supplant the state, nor prevent its action. Respect their decisions, like any other, and if desired, dictate their convictions on the orders of its own.

Was this the attitude of the Church always, at all times and in all places?. Say no. Crime sollicitationis is, apparently, a document which required the bishops to silence and secrecy of cases of child sexual abuse. The document was prepared by the Holy Office (today the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith) in 1962, and contains a set of instructions to bishops on how to handle cases of "worst crime." Ie, cases in which priests are involved in sex with animals, people or children. And those who use confessions to secure sexual favors from the faithful. Crime

Sollicitationis

secretly called to handle such cases and secrecy extends to the same document. The penalty for violation confidentiality include excommunication, which can only be withdrawn by the Pope himself. In response, the Catholic Church argued that the policy of secrecy not to conceal the crimes include pedophilia committed by priests. The hierarchies of the Vatican State claimed further that the provisions contained in the 1962 document has no binding value after the entry into force of provisions in 1983 reformed the Code of Canon Law. But others want to hold the opposite view a letter by the then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger entitled "De delictis gravioribus " of May 18, 2001. With that date

Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger sent a letter " delictis gravioribus " ("Rules of most serious crimes") to the bishops of the entire Catholic Church and other ordinary and higher, announcing what acts "most serious were reserved" the only view of his congregation.

Are some of these documents and their contents?. I do not have them, so the statements should be careful not to pass, for now, a "they say and it seems that a certain foundation." I suppose that if they continue the proceedings in the U.S. but sooner or later will have to see the light court, not just the media, because the latter too often nothing more than a dark nothing bright.

But regardless of past performance we are in the present, today, against the abuses and tested, and analyzing the reaction that governs the restoration of the violated legal and moral. Rapists priests should be treated as what they are: criminals who must also attend highly qualified aggravated abuse of superiority. Sean Catholics, Buddhists, Hindus, Quakers, or preachers of any doctrine born of pregnant occurrences of creative imagination.

Because not only live in the Church abuses. Not even seem to preference. Unfortunately arise where the man, wearing a cassock or oriental sports apparel, exercise any form of domination over individuals as helpless as children. We read news apparently terrifying elite gyms, whose elitism is barbaric abuses and alleged implementation with arguments that are no more excuses indecent miserable. And out of gym clubs of different coats ... So, in a wide range of instruments at the service of smelly. In any case, state law should be applicable, nobody can be immune to such crimes, or civil or criminal.

Could that be the case were accused Benedict XVI in the U.S. as some claim?. Criminally not see it. Civilly, perhaps, but in this case not as individuals but as the highest authority of an organization that would be liable. I say possible because I do not know the legal mechanisms for prosecution of a State (Vatican) in another state. I do not know if you can also sue the Church as an organization in a State, the U.S., for example, whether the Vatican is another State. I think there are pronouncements of American justice, or American political authorities, I have no certainty, in the sense that Benedict XVI, in his capacity as head of state, enjoys immunity, and there is a prior precedent, also Texas, on John Paul II. But some say that the issue remains open, at least in the civil field.

celibacy and pedophilia

is somewhat understandable that the enemies of the Catholic Church take advantage of the trip to highlight what they see as hindrances incomprehensible, and particularly the celibacy. In addition to questioning itself as absurd repression of sexuality inherent in every human being, to deny its increased effectiveness in the service of spirituality, place him now as one of the causes of pedophilia, so that maintenance mandatory within the Church would be to work as the inevitable commission of further crimes of abuse arising precisely from sexual repression to which subjects the priests in charge of educating children.

What is it?. Celibacy Is the cause of pedophilia?. Is it, even, a driver, an accelerator or a promoter of such diversion?. I have no response capability. I have read positions of either gender theorists from specialists. Do the emotions, beliefs, may influence the conclusions supposedly technical?. I have no doubt, either in this or any other matter. The strength of the emotions is enormous, and the possibility of succumbing to it, unquestionably. Even in many cases there is a voluntary surrender to the emotions because it is more comforting than analytical.

not advocating celibacy, or bring it into question now. We try to pedophilia. The bachelor does not harm anyone, in any event itself, if true certain specialist positions Psychology and Psychiatry. But yes pederast. A view is. And there are many cases of pedophiles who are neither celibate nor are ordained priests. Global pedophilia is not quantitatively more numerous agents Catholic priests. One thinks of what one thinks of the Catholic Church seems indisputable fact. Another Thing is socially a priest pedophilia is more legally objectionable ("abuse of authority") than another, precisely because that position of superiority and attribute a moral preacher unscathed. But that does not allow a direct psychological connection between celibacy and pedophilia, because there not celibate pedophiles and child molesters are not celibate.

course it is not efficient cause, would it work as an accelerator or stimulating the fact of a repressed sexuality?. It may be, of course it can be. But if we admit that pedophilia is a disease, the operating parameters of the pathological part of that property. In other words: any know what most stimulates the pederast. The world of sex, sexual stimuli, is certainly terra incognita, and the sexual diseases, much more. "Celibacy?. Can be accelerated. "Injuries in the unconscious?. Maybe. At last, a road fraught with questions that have a potential response could be. And this, of course, whether the church should or should not abolish the celibacy issue that's none of my business.

What has alarmed me most is the assertion, which appears to be unfounded, that pedophilia is noticeable at times early age. Certainly there are pedophiles that begin with the barbaric age. But that's not what I say, but according to some psychologists, the trend is noticeable from pedophilia, for example, ten or twelve years. The individual feels that pathological tilt. Perceived inside and even outside. And this is particularly serious because in the moment of our society that perception invites two seemingly contradictory behaviors: first, the concealment. Alternatively, the search for more suitable places to practice with as much impunity as possible.

And the Catholic Church thus becomes the scene perfect. First, because it is known, canonical rules aside, the tendency to conceal cases committed in its midst. Second, because the Church is always more powerful than the isolated individual. Third, because in the case of word against word, the priest's theory comes equipped with a plus of credibility. Fourth, the education of children is the main activity of the Church. Fifth, because facing the superiority of every teacher, the priest manages another plus qualitative: it is the way to eternal life. Could be forced to continue with the anatomy of the scene, but I do not worthwhile. Is sufficient, in view of the brutality of the consequences of the values \u200b\u200bat stake.

If so, it is clear that the Church should put special emphasis on the selection of priests. For this, and other functions, seminar is available. A psychological analysis prior to ordination seems essential.

But the question is: just by the Church?. What should government do? Is it mission delegated?. To dispel doubts begin with questions, it is method that usually works. Are nationals of the State Children? Does my state custody and physical and mental? Should control the emotional stability and internal balance of all those engaged in collective superiority over a sensitive and helpless as children? Should look to those exercising physical education teachers? And to those who hold gyms and similar places? What about the children who claim to cults?

must distinguish between what we should do and how to implement it. It is perhaps difficult, but inevitable to find a solution. And no one can be exempted. Especially if experience shows the need. It is not without risk area because, for example, under this psychological analysis of the state could not issue certificates of fitness to master not based on psychological disorders but seeking the party who provided part of the tenets of the ruling in question that can be enemy of the Church, for example. Trust in the technical, in the honesty of their opinions, in unwavering moral of those who practice medicine in its various branches? We see that a law on abortion was converted into a loophole for the lax technical professionals and look away from politicians who called themselves pro-life advocates and postualdos of Catholicism. Right. Nothing is without risk. is the eternal problem of defining, choosing values \u200b\u200bat stake, prioritize properly, seek not eliminate risk because the risks living men will live in our social life. Deciding to take the risk involved. No decision is a decision that takes all the risks at the time.

Surely someone want to go further and argue that: we admit that mental illness in the West, with almost infinite variety, is installed in increasing order. Let us now find the reasons and facts. Too many people hold some form of mental pathology. And, of course, such deficiencies are particularly sensitive when they exercise subjects affected by some form of power. For example, judges. Should I undergo regular psychological analysis before entering and during exercise of its function?. I have no doubt. And I rely on experience. Can issue certificates of physical caregiver without such analysis, especially when you are exercising the function of children's groups? I have no doubt. Should the state delegate to the Catholic Church and the exclusive mission?. Not exclusively. That is, not without further consideration that being a Catholic Church, because the experience that we face. What then? Find a solution mechanism. You need to think and find solutions to this problem

already skeptical that psychological tests are not an endangered species. And very possibly have a considerable background ratio. The mind is so complex that it can build its defense mechanisms against invasive techniques. Okay, but something must be done and this is what we have at hand. At least not to sin

negligence is true that, as I say, increasing mental disorders cause much damage in different orders. Since we can not address all of the time we start with the groups most vulnerable. A priest, a teacher, a guru can do much harm to children. A judge can produce a paper, a simple paper, which deprives a man of liberty. Knowing who is falsely convicted. Knowing who sacrifices freedom for obedience ideological, political reward, equity or lust reincremento deriavdas of self-consciousness of mediocrity. If it acts in the best case the injured party is entitled to compensation of the few euros that not even the judge are claimed in what is called "way back." We can not change all the time But it is urgent work in the mission of our times.
