THESE CATHOLIC LEFT THE FEAST OF ST

CAGLIFESTA, the feast of the PD in the old town of Cagli, launched the conference in Monaco Alessandro Camaldolese Barban, prior of the hermitage of Santa Croce di Fonte Avellana.
With this initiative, PD Cagli wanted to give a strong signal to their fellow citizens, asking for a well-known and respected preacher of the current deal of Catholic social doctrines of Catholicism, for comparison, on these issues, with the positions of the left and PD in particular.

And Father spoke Barban Constitution and other constitutional Dossetti reminding Catholics, spoke about the work as the foundation of our Republic, the value of education, the principle of religious freedom, solidarity, understood not as charity but as a concession of the common rights. He spoke with his usual fluency and clarity in a conversation at arm about two hours. Until towards the end of the conference, some of these notoriously moved, even today, from a deep-seated, visceral anti-communism, have winced from the mouth of Father Barban its obvious proximity to the left.
But if they were attentive hearers of the sermons every Sunday Monaco reads from the pulpit of Santa Croce di Fonte Avellana, it should have been surprised.

For those homilies, in which of course never any mention of a political nature shines through, but always deal with evangelical themes with emphasis on rare clarity, the faithful are invariably inspire the feelings of every fundamental Christian love, brotherhood , solidarity, charity. Feelings, they immediately shared by all, but then, on time, are often disregarded when it comes to exercising the most common choices in life or when you are out in support of policy initiatives that have little to do with love , brotherhood, solidarity, charity, but they seem to better protect certain private interests.
do not know if Father Barban has or has not done a wise thing to take sides so openly before the public celebration of the PD: its institutional figure could draw some damage. However, he showed great intellectual honesty and selflessness, in the hope, perhaps, that the example is beneficial to the cause.
