Freedom of rebellion?

  (¿Libertad de rebelión?)

 

When Hannah Arendt said that the slogans and bad books showed how far we were willing to resort to violence, said a great truth, and that is what they show both politicians and left-wing journalism right now. The left defeated at the polls was defeated earlier in the ideas. Inoperative, obsolete and decrepit political agendas, thoughts and ideals, you are only as old media slogans, street action and physical violence...

He wrote Jose Orlandis[i] on Christian birth of Europe and the historical distortion is denying it, but how far are too many European sectors of the Gospel. And, given the negative influence of these sectors, too many Christians remain outside. Some, through ignorance of background ideologies that sustain them and their aspirations. Others, insane belief that you have to respect any ideas, because that would be tolerance, when the latter, if true, what really is to protect people, through understanding and reason, even of destructive beliefs they hold.[ Más ]
