The Government twists Catholic messages and manipulates the Episcopal Conference
If a flock of sheep is led by a wolf, sheep will do what the wolf wants or will be devoured. Humans have been proven to practice flock grouping. Being a bishop is hard because moral and intellectual excellence in the same person is impossible. The Spanish Episcopal Conference (CEE), chaired by the Archbishop of Barcelona, has made the mistake of stating the need to forgive in the matter of clemency for Catalan secessionist politicians by confusing the role of victims and executioners. The archbishops of Valencia and Oviedo have stated they disagree. Pardon without repentance, shouting they would do it again and the Spanish state is weak? There is no dialogue, but a monologue among parties with a common objective: breaking Spain up is to the mutual benefit. Separatists do not deceive when they burn streets, are paid commissions or preach from pulpits. The Spanish government lies to deceive its gullible voters. The CEE’s decision is not in tune with Jesus Christ’s message: whatever is hurtful to you, do not do onto others. The victims in Catalonia are not separatists, but Catalan constitutionalists who have been ignored by all governments for 40 years. Modern tyrants do not use military force, but cultural hegemony via propaganda by controlling education, culture and the mass media. When they are the majority in parliament, they are in power. Then they change laws that breach separation of powers, appropriate Justice and attempt to perpetuate themselves. They also act against the citizens who do not vote them: constitutionalists, those for freedom and cutting political spending. President Sánchez confuses us by saying something and then does the opposite (even Rufián reminds him of this), manipulates language to those who believe and, with so many lies, he unveils his totalitarian intentions. He attributes public utility to his own interest by identifying how dictators apply their utility with that of the State. He calls complying with the law vengeance; denying his will is being disloyal and fascist; patronage is solidarity; allowing the law to be broken is conformity; promoting territorial inequalities by showering resources on separatists is keeping peace; going against the Constitution is dialoguing; what is public is good by definition, and what is private is suspicious by interest; eliminating national identity, Christian culture by allowing immigrants’ invasion, is humanitarian action. Helping large families, the birth rate, special and state-aided education, facilitating private initiatives to create jobs are not public utilities, but public utilities are the law on democratic memory, illegally occupying private properties, making people pay fines for not renting property to LGTBI, legal discriminating males versus females, laws on minors, euthanasia or transexuality. Financing pensions is “solved” with more public debt, not by cutting political-administration and patronage squandering. Many of these matters affect morale, the CEE grants and plays the role of the government’s “useful fool” against the opposition: you are alone because even businesspeople and bishops support dialogue.
For decades, Catalan and Basque people have indoctrinated against Spain at schools and in public means, with indoctrination also in the Navarre, Balearic and Valencian Autonomous Communities, by converting leaders’ desires into alienated citizens’ rights: Spain oppresses us, steals from us, etc., in their own language to distinguish who is “good”. After 40 years of a negligent two-party system, those truly oppressed are constitutionalist Spaniards, who claim constitutional freedom, equality, and respect. Separatists sit at the table to dialogue, who demand amnesty, self-determination, and the Government delivers the unity of Spain. Rather than the CEE following Jesus Christ, it seems to negotiate euros for it: conserving assets; exempt from paying rates on Catholic Church assets; being able to tick money to the Catholic Church in everyone’s tax declaration. Bishops will receive very little, and will later be thrown out. What can you expect with liars and traitors! Would it not be more ethical and cleaver to ask help from believers and donors? The willingness for dialogue is immoral and corrosive, some change the system, but other hands are free to pillage Catalonia. The Generalitat (Catalan Council) will back embargoes for the individual misappropriation responsibilities of the 34 sanctioned former high-ranking politicians, but you will pay for this because it will become Spanish public debt.
