What happened in the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Hermosillo, Mexican state of Sonora, reveals the heart of the ideological problem of feminism of violating fundamental rights and guarantees for the supremacy of dictatorial thinking. On International Women’s Day, feminists interrupted Mass and vandalized the cathedral. , causing terror among men, women and children?who were forced to create barricades with wooden benches: to protect their lives and sacred objects of worship, typical of scenes from The Walking Dead (season 5), where survivors take refuge in an episcopal chapel, while dying-living tried to invade, but in this case they were feminists. Details of what happened, you can look here.
In their defence, feminists claim that this is an isolated extremist and radical group, which does not represent feminism as a whole, but, in fact, everything that is bad for reputation is soon scrapped, however rejection is not accompanied by concern for the real victims of the attack: women and children, who prayed desperately for their lives and for the integrity of their cathedral.
- In this case.
- In addition to prison.
- When we talk about feminism.
- We must always remember the dignity of the human person.
- It is not risky to say that feminism contributes to the degradation of this universal principle [consciously and unconsciously].
From opposition to the campaign against teenage pregnancies, to silence at such vandalism against the faithful and their Churches, there is a determined commitment to ending Christian influence on human thought. The trick is: validate the debauchery and the bitch to attack the sacredness of others and create a false conception of freedom.
Although the use of force is not clear in the discourse of some feminists, the movement as a whole is inconsistent because it says it is concerned about women, but is not afraid to see activists invade and paint a temple with women praying inside. . Yours. As it is fundamental to feminist methodology to stifle the Christian denomination, there is no concern for Christian women, in fact, the victims are one more obstacle, at best, a collateral effect of the feminist process of redemption of women.
Just as Ravi Zacharias warns of the epistemological impact that have engendered the changes resulting from progressiveism, feminism adopts the same narrative, libertarian woman must be the sense of all things, if there is a Christian on the way, she is not responsible. to alleged protection provided by the movement, in fact, unfortunate. Here we see the aversion of feminism to religious freedom. What happened in Mexico is just a small grain of sand, when we stop to analyze that one of the pillars of humanity, faith, is constantly disturbed in the manifestations of feminists who scream, destroy temples, violently attack the slightest modesty, etc.
Walking [which seemed more like a psychotic outbreak that promotes violence] affects other goods besides religious sentiment. The physical and psychological integrity of the faithful was violated, the object of worship was looted, and the [physical and intellectual] safety of children was desecrated. In the face of such a scenario, the silence of all feminist thinkers shows consent. It is a project that aims to move the sacred:
When God created mankind, two distinctly sacred aspects were transmitted. One was the holiness of life itself; the other was the sanctity of sexuality. [?] When does the great Creator lose sight of the greatest of all artists?They attack precisely what he called sacred: life and sexuality. What do we see now [?]? The celebration of violence and eroticism. The desecration of the human body has disfigured life and our culture unfortunately falls into tolerance of the erotic and the wicked. [1]
As we seek to end gospel leadership, we are leading to a violation of fundamental freedoms such as religion, assembly, and coming and going, and society is left to a worldview imbued with violence and unable to stop evil. value of the sacred to understand that this process is synonymous with dehumanization.
The argument that seeks to justify a violent manifestation of the “use of freedom of opposition and freedom of expression” type cannot succeed, because the life, faith and integrity of these faithful has been crushed, as well as the basic principle of all: the dignity of the human person When the enjoyment of liberty affects the dignity of someone , we have an act capable of reproach and re contention on the part of the State.
All freedoms emanate from the dignity of the human person, including that of expression. In other words, all freedoms are at the service of dignity and contribute to its growth. Offending or criticizing an institution, including the Church, finds refuge in freedom of expression, unless they see: can the Church, as an institution, be more or less admired? for this or that believer, but as a rule (even because this is not the purpose of the institutional church), the church is not worshiped by anyone. Why? Because the institution is made up of men, therefore prone to errors. On the other hand, the church handles the sacred, but it is not the sacred itself (regardless of theological issues, such as being the bride of Christ, in the case of Christian churches, but generally the criticisms and offenses are against the church (as an organization and not as a living organism). Hence the possibility that, under the protection of freedom, we criticize the Roman Catholic Church or the Baptist Church, for example. However, the object (s) and the divinity ( s) of the worship present in any belief and faith, regardless of its association with a particular church / institution, is error-free for those who worship it. The sacred is the goal of faith and where human beings deposit their last and dearest trust. Hope is placed at the feet of the sacred. This trust and this last hope are born and find resonance in the innermost depths of every human being, and, as such, are fused with dignity. They are inseparable. m etaphysics goes beyond anything human. sure. He who worships does so with all his heart and without limits. Offending and denigrating the sacred is an attack on the innermost part of man. Here is the expression: “What is most sacred to you. ” To attack your faith in the sacred is to attack your dignity as a human being. It is the last barrier, the last wall of bestiality. Here we stop being human to become animals. [two]
A contradictory movement, said against the cosification of women, but which allows women to expose their bodies to attack human beings [in this case, attack the faithful, men, women, girls and boys who were at a mass, praying. They did not kill, steal or rape anyone], it lacks existential viability.
While speaking for women, feminism also attacks religious and non-religious women, because it is not necessary to be religious in order to find such absurd practices. If women choose a profession in which to defend their faith, this militant discourse of “More women in the public arena?”It’s not worth it either. Feminism is one of the ways to achieve the terrible end of the fight against the transcendent and to minimize the dignity of the human person.
