"The Day After" is usually the decay, depression and sadness. Whether the decline of "optimism" "The fool and false enthusiasm to believe affordable uncertain and unlikely possibility that should not reasonably be expected, a political choice, or final, glorious, quasi nothing shameful, but certainly less indecent, drunkenness. "The day after," the reproach of conscience dissatisfied with the unconsciousness of ill-conceived and worse wrongdoing executed. And the bitter taste of defeat in a foretaste of a moral waste ephemeral conquest. Down goes
since then, a modest vote to overcome the pain of the present.
has outlined the nature of politics in a Catholic concept. But is it possible make a Christian politics? As hinted
(...), want to return to a policy Christian Christian without the Spirit that moves the soul is not only impossible, but it would be more harmful that could happen to a nation and the same Christian politics. Would play the big mistake of the French action. Ideologues that make up a custom policy, without metaphysics, theology and mysticism.
If so, why, then, these pages of Christian politics? Mystery will always be fruitful if we can bring others the conviction that politics, as the Church wants is not possible without Christ. He is Life, Truth, and Way, and there is nothing, absolutely nothing that is human can truly achieve its entirety without Him more: all things human that without the fall can develop and grow under the protection of the devil. The policy, therefore, the specific policies, militant, in the modern world and had to be Christian, and malice of men is not, is kneaded into ashes condemned.
But now this world falls apart. Modern man had placed his ideal in making the "homo economicus", the man ruled by their economic needs. And he thought he had won. Massive deployment of industries, the work of man and man.
But we to a point at which the "homo economicus" feels that she is all mud. It gets rid this world fool who claimed to be comfortable without Jesus Christ. Not that Christ makes you comfortable, because the Cross is the opposite of "comfort" of the bourgeoisie. But the folly of the Cross, while reinstating men to the supernatural participation in the life of the Trinity, he saved the integrity of the human condition, made possible his life in exile,
and Christ Church, his head, never promised more than the present reality allows. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all else will be added unto you" . We were promised, indeed, the kingdom of heaven, not the convenience of the earth. But in addition we secured the habitability of this valley.
The pretended philosophers, however, the theorists of liberal and socialist politics, they promised us paradise on earth and gave us a comfortable hell down here and the guarantee of unquenchable fire in the afterlife.
Fortunately for man, for the true rights of man is none other than the rights of Christ the Saviour of man, this stupid world is falling apart. In this settlement will save the stones of a new world. This new world will not develop or the economy, neither politics nor science, nor even the metaphysical wisdom. Only theology, divine wisdom, in its authentic realization is the mystic or wisdom of the saints, may your breath trocar death into life. A powerful blast of holiness is to revive the spoils of the modern world.
What about Catholics? "We'll walk, meanwhile, eager to take positions on the right, center or left?
To the right, center or left of whom?
decay surrounds us, what we intend to position ourselves in the middle, or sides? Let them
the mundane these terms, and let them take positions in the ranks of the devil.
Will we alliance with fascism or democracy? "Pursue the modern achievements of women's suffrage? Try to Christianize "liberalism, socialism, democracy, feminism?
would be healthier than we ourselves cristianicemos. Let Catholics. And as a Catholic saint just mean, really try to be holy.
Holiness is supernatural life. There is talk and think of holiness. Is life. If it is true that it takes root in faith, or in the supernatural knowledge of Jesus Christ, not ends but in the Charity who is the love of God above all things and neighbor for God's sake.
Catholic life, fully lived in the exercise of charity, we impose, in addition, a Catholic face in the purely human forms of life in art, science, economics and politics. The overabundance of charity will lead to an art, science, economy and political Catholics.
this is precisely the program of Catholic Action, the supreme courts that invites the vicar of Christ. Catholic Action, no action of ours, no action of Catholics as if they were a party band that has to defend itself as defending the bourgeois or socialist communists.
Catholic Action: that is, action of the Father through Jesus Christ who lives in the soul supernaturally Christian holy and sanctifying action, action impossible to perform even if you own a very large science and skill of the things of religion, while not when in contact with Jesus Christ action whose efficacy is not in proportion to the movement or energy expended, but the sanctity of live.
Catholic Action, which is the apostolate of the laity in the hierarchy. But that is apostolic activity is internal holiness, by their superabundance, spills and communicate.
Catholic Action: hence the crucial position of Catholics. Note well: indispensable.
Will, then, Catholics need to abandon the struggle in the same political and economic field and we only concrete as Catholic Action?
Catholic Action is the essential position, but not exclusive. She is first, so that we can not deal in any other activity if it is to their detriment, and all other activities must be exercised in store, directly or indirectly, to aid the Catholic Action. Required by the sense of hierarchy of works. Hierarchy is not absorbed nor denial, but claim autonomous rights of the whole unit. Saved
, then, the primacy of Catholic Action, Catholics, taking into account the requirements of their faith and mission, and the possibilities of their vocation, they can devote to building the city especially in our societies dechristianized Catholic. The Catholic city program for current times is already developed. In public documents, Leo XIII, St. Pius X, Pius XI, Pius XII and John XXIII have been the foundation of a Christian social order of society. Any fundamental problems, economic or political has been omitted. It remains only for Catholics, with seriousness and honesty, assimilate the doctrine that public law is Christian. I say with seriousness and honesty, because, unfortunately, Catholics, instead of listening carefully and faithfully to the Popes, not mixed with what they say their own views, sometimes doing a mixture of Christian principles with liberalism, socialism and communism, which is a dangerous explosive.
Once internalized the principles that govern the Catholic city, it is necessary to disseminate in all environments and strata. This is, par excellence, the work of the Catholic city.
