ESTAÇÕES DIFERENTES

"The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them - words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller, but for want of an understanding ear."

Stephen King - "Different Seasons"

Não há meninos, não há casório...

"No plans for kids? The church won't marry you

June 01 2003 at 02:24PM



Paris - A French couple has been refused a religious wedding ceremony by the Catholic church because they said they did not want to have children, Le Journal du Dimanche newspaper reported on Sunday.

The pair - named only as Anne and Christophe - told the parish priest in Saint-Remi de Forbach in northeastern France that they were afraid of passing on a nervous disorder from which Anne suffered.

"However, it was not a genetic illness. It posed a real problem because what they said is incompatible with canon law," said Philippe Hiegel, spokesperson for the Metz diocese.

In the Catholic marriage ceremony bride and groom must declare that they intend to have children and that they accept the "responsibility of spouse and parent," church officials told the paper.

"The priest had no choice but to refuse. If the marriage was ever disputed in a church court it would be declared void," said Jean-Marie Stock, the diocesan vicar-general.

Church officials explained that the marriage service can be offered to couples who cannot have children, or who want to delay having them, but an outright refusal to have children is a disqualification. - Sapa-AFP

Pois é, a minha Instituição favorita... ( not!!!) fê-lo novamente...
Não há filhotes, não há casório, que esta coisa de sexo por prazer são modernices.
Obviamente que a questão se prende com a lei canónica, a qual, em grande parte do seu conteúdo normativo, está desfasada da natureza humana e regula relacionamentos com uma doutrina comportamental por ideias de severidade, medo e privação.
Bolas, mas a religião não existe para acolher e beneficiar as pessoas? Ou a tolerância pela liberdade pessoal é perfeitamente incompatível com os dogmas do cristianismo?
Duh! Pergunta de retórica, claro...

Abraços
