I think had not wanted to refer the issue church because he was very fashionable. if, that is why, and also because it is better when the smoke subside, but above all, it is better to approach the subject with a good idea. if not why?.
then.
Let's start here: I called the attention when people say "the church is crumbling." well as I do, which is crumbling public opinion of the priests, and also revealed that people believe that the church is the priests only. Here is the point that interests me play.
It seems wrong to think that the church is the priests, it is clear that the Catholics considered their guides (and more than once sobredependen of one), but they are not everything, I make the remark that is true, the acts were committed by priests some are unforgivable and as the cliche not repairable.
But not all are well. and that's the whole argument that I have around that, besides is not the real point of this post.
[back] The church as well I remember my friend Alvaro in his blog
are (are) also all those who participate in it, teenagers, adults, children and elderly, and those who do get it wrong, as all the world. and I can say that not all white sheep, which are the ladies peeling, the inconsistent, and many other labels we put on people.
The really curious thing is the amount of bias ("errors") when you form impressions of people like
the "fundamental attribution error" * and how are you labels tend to be self-perpetuating as different forms, for example, the prophecy self-fulfilling or Pygmalion effect
*.
Leaving aside the psychological side of the thing I have to clarify that not everything is "justifiable" in this way (or the prejudices of some, or the faults of others).
Returning to the main theme, Gandhi says,
"We must not lose faith in humanity is like the ocean: do not mess because some of their drops are dirty. "
The church is not falling, I do not think all their "fauna" is going to die of poisoning, but I get the impression that its surface is soiled (and him saying every second), but I still question what about the sea?. The bottom of the sea, who attend the churches are also part of it (is it) and created constantly, and I strongly believe that despite everything that happens within the church, critics and fa! some people are able to say "I Believe", people who believe in God, people who believe in the people and also people who create, create new proposals, has initiatives that I think are beyond the activism, in order , people who create renewed church and that despite everything bad that can be in, are like the new cells that are Replaces the old skin cells.
The other day I read a sentence, I think of Churchill, who said that the kite rises against the wind, not with him. and believe that, besides the science backs us up, that's going to be a kind of natural selection for the church, you're not going to give best to the demands of today.
and that's what I believe.
Thanks for reading, feedback and hope you have enjoyed.
