WITNESS: CARD. RUINI ON GOD 'CAN NOT NEUTRALITY'
Salvatore Izzo
(AGI) - Vatican, Dec. 10
is 'impossible' a neutral approach "to the question of God was underlined
card today. Camillo Ruini, the basic report to the Congress
"God today. With him or without him changes everything,"
promoted by the Italian Bishops Conference through the Committee for Cultural Project
. inevitably involves the person who sets it, since it has
to do with the meaning and direction of our lives. Between the two positions
(believe or not believe) because "the difference not only exists but is' big and
radical." For believers, "God and 'the origin, meaning and purpose
man and the universe." "I do not believe however - noted the cardinal -
may differ in their responses, as they believe that faith in God
negative, positive or irrelevant per la vita dell'uomo e della societa', ma
propriamente parlando si riferiscono soltanto alla nostra fede in Dio, non alla
realta' stessa di Dio, dato che secondo loro Dio non esiste, o comunque non
possiamo sapere niente di lui, nemmeno se egli esista". E non esiste nemmeno,
ha aggiunto Ruini, "uno spazio di neutralita' che possa consistere nel
rifugiarsi in una posizione agnostica, che e' forse argomentabile ma assai meno
concretamente vivibile". "Nella pratica - dunque - siamo costretti a scegliere
tra due alternative, gia' individuate da Pascal: o vivere come se Dio non
esistesse, oppure vivere come se Dio esistesse e fosse la realta' decisiva
della nostra esistenza. Se agiamo according to the first alternative -
noted the cardinal - that we adopt a position not only agnostic and atheist, and if we decide instead
the second alternative, we adopt a position
believer: the question of God ', therefore, unavoidable. "Yet, for
Ruini, the 'impossibility' of a neutral approach and purely 'scientific', if one part
can 'be seen as a limit, the other has a strong positive
flap, which consists in the total involvement of our
ourselves, our experience of life, liberty ', and affects as
intelligence and its ability to' critical. This is especially true about the word of
S. Augustine: 'You know what really just' who really loves
'. In relation to God is not 'so close in the event of any
narrow rationalism. "

WITNESS: CARD. RUINI, exegesis MYTH DOES NOT JUSTIFY A REDUCTION
Salvatore Izzo
( AGI) - Vatican, Dec. 10
pages of the Gospel with the story of life and especially the resurrection of Jesus 'Christ' pose almost inexorably to human reason the question of God and his intervention in history. "
fact, explained the card. Camillo Ruini, in his speech at the Conference of the CEI, "if Christ is 'just a man, and especially not' risen siamo costretti, alla fine, a ridurre a mito la sua vicenda storica o a ricorrere ad altre ipotesi storicamente assai improbabili". In proposito, il card. Ruini ha rilevato che la moderna esegesi dell'Antico Testamento sembra che stia perdendo il riferimento alla fede. E questo rappresenta un impoverimento anche per l'Ebraismo. "Gia' la nascita del monoteismo ebraico - ha detto - appare un segno forte della presenza di Dio, sebbene la fase di transizione che attraversano attualmente gli studi dell’Antico Testamento renda questo segno non facile, oggi, da inquadrare ed apprezzare criticamente. Piu' chiaro - ha ammesso - e' il segno costituito dalla vita e in particolare dalla risurrezione di Gesù Cristo".
"Nella storia del cristianesimo - he added - there are data that point, at least in some way, To the question about God: so 'not only the miracles and other signs of a special intervention of God, but also the experience of God who have had the great many saints and mystics in general. "

WITNESS: BAGNASCO, do not compress FREEDOM 'BUT GOOD REASONS persuasive
Salvatore Izzo
(AGI) - Vatican, Dec. 10
'Truth' Christian only knows the persuasive power of good reasons that support the aims and unselfish love, do not follow the path of manipulation and persuasion, but knows the dialogue, aperto e franco, chiaro nella propria identita' e rispettoso dell'interlocutore". Lo afferma il card. Angelo Bagnasco nella prolusione da lui tenuta oggi al Convegno "Dio oggi. Con Lui o senza di Lui cambia tutto", promosso dalla Conferenza Episcopale Italiana attraverso il Comitato per il Progetto Culturale presieduto dal card. Camillo Ruini. "Generata dall'amore", ha scandito il presidente della Cei, la verita' cristiana "non comprime ma esalta la libera scelta dell'uomo". "In un mondo fatto incerto e quasi scettico dal diffondersi della sindrome relativistica, in cui la passione e la stima per le grandi questioni paiono assopite, in cui la ragione strumentale e pragmatica sembra farla da padrona - ha detto - ogni discorso su realta' certe, assolute and transcendent, is liable to be rejected, inexorably, in the enclosure limited opinio subjective. "
The question of God, said Bagnasco," it is not 'an abstract question, but penetrates deep into the fibers of the inner man. "And and 'a' question that is pressing in our own time, just as popular cultural removal processes tend to marginalize. "Especially in the Western world, the question of God and 'left out of the usual path of culture," noted the Cardinal noting that "marginalized and psychologically removed, it appears, however, 'irrepressible what it' in the depths of the human heart, in disguise." According to Cardinal Bagnasco, "many forms of so-called return of the sacred, unfortunately, marred by sentimentality and emotion, they end up endorsing the widespread view that religion and reason belong to two worlds, if not opposed, at least incommunicable. "Faced with this risk, the cardinal, and 'necessary' claim parresia with respectful dignity 'and the cultural relevance of the Gospel, is able to interpret the existence and to guide the wayfarer man of our time, every time. "
Moreover, explained the archbishop of Genoa , "the question of God is not 'an investigation into the abstract, divorced from reality' of everyday life, but the crucial question, to which the radical discovery of the meaning (or meaninglessness) of the world and of life: of his personal life. "" God - said the cardinal - approaches the traveler of all time: if he hears his voice, then begins to find himself ".
