However, sooner or later it will happen. If we are not exactly inflexible faithful, we are safe. Sooner or later, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who ascended the papal throne under the name of Francis, will also speak of God. Perhaps, we want to broaden the expectation of Christian gave, not about the “one God” or other para-syncretistic nonsense that makes improvised exegetes in the mouth, see Eugenio Scalfari.
A sociologist and ecologist Pope
Because a daily extravagance of contemporaneity, a madness of the news that nobody surprises anymore, is right here: in the existence of a Pope who exposes everything, except the last question on which theoretically he has more right. externalize. Sociologist, environmentalist, behavioral psychologist, economist, theorist of migratory flows and even vaccines (and with vague conspiratorial accents). But never, sorry, it is not a disrespectful comment, it is a phenomenological and neutral recognition of reality, theologian. Never hand in hand with that mysterious intertwining of faith and reason that, at least for a guy named Joseph ratzinger in a speech that is not quite a bar in Regensburg, it would be the scandalous essence of Christianity.
Migrant obsession
Just in the last month, Pope Francis has repeatedly returned to one of his great classics, the issue of migrants, also asking forgiveness from those directly involved because “too many times we have not accepted you” (we ignore the reference of the first plural person, we tend to exclude he was referring to the Vatican rooms, which are not full of refugees) and “we fear the change in life and mentality that their presence requires” (yes, with respect to some migrations from Islamic countries we reserve the right to fear a “change of mentality” on the idea of women, individual rights, the secularism of the State and other antiquities born of the civilization that Bergoglio represents).
Then he put in the viewer several times the true demonic pole of his exits, the free market, this monstrosity that has created “inequitable economic growth” and the proliferation of “inequalities”, omitting the detail that where this Western invention has not taken root, there really is no “economic growth”, fair or inequitable, and instead, there is total equality, but in misery and hunger.
Again recently, he insisted on calls to one “Good policy” that it deals with the “common good”, because “unfortunately, politics often does not enjoy a good reputation”, but “that does not mean that all politicians are bad,” he said, we would like to whisper, remaining a step below the reflections theological-political of Thomas Aquinas. On the occasion of the opening of schools, he invoked universal respect for the “Education rights” and of “Student safety”sacrosanct warnings, but for which even the penultimate UN bureaucrat would suffice. A few days earlier, he had assumed the role of mass pedagogue, reproaching those who gossip behind the back of others, because “talk is a plague worse than Covid!”, A statement that runs the risk of sounding much worse in hospitals from the Bergamo area than from the balcony. of the Angelus.
