are difficult years, the years when an old ruling class, not only age, struggling to leave the power he has consolidated around it in all fields, from government to universities to private . Years in which the family, the only real engine and only factor that is keeping us out the door the economic crisis that has already involved Greece, Portugal, Ireland, is in crisis. Years in which the young years fear of having children, getting married, years in which children earn less than fathers. Years in which the politicians do nothing but fight on television and never, but never, legislate and govern. These are years in which the various Alfano, La Russa, Rutelli, Bindi, letters, etc., etc., seem more concerned about treating their image, taken in the very wide sense, television studios rather than doing their duty as legislators, controllers , parliamentarians, administrators. These are the years in which the Cardinal Tettamanzi and Cardinal Martini are defined red because they say things to the left, or common sense, not the politicians at all levels, especially those on the left - that should not be afraid to say the things they say the Cardinals Milan -.
That's what I want in this day of St. Ambrose deal today.
is not the first time it happens and it will not last: in Italy, but let's say in Western Europe, the Church is not true that invades the camp, and this comes from someone who left a long time, now I do not know because, increasingly vote left - so much is changing and is moving toward a moderately disgusting and repulsive, the Italian left was born from the rubble of the PCI -, Down with these balls! The Church does not invade the field, the Church holds a vacuum, the political vacuum left by this pointless and arrogant political class of forty to sixty careerists and unnecessary and attached to the chair. It is not the
first time that happens, I said. I will mention two among many examples showing examples of Milan, the example of two bishops: Ambrose and Carlo Borromeo.
Ambrose was elected bishop at a time of great crisis, when the Emperor, who resided in Milan, was incapable of governing the city and the tensions that it went crazy. With his wisdom filled the prelate a space, a void. And with his presence and his strength went so far as to condemn the emperor who had made a killing in Ravenna incredible. In other times and other people, other politicians, stronger, on the one hand and other church figures on the other hand, that sentence would not lead to anything - are the first year of Christianity are certainly not the years of the Church and powerful military - and instead the emperor returned to kneel before the bishop, recognized his superiority and only then went on to govern. Mind you, I repeat, Ambrose merely denounce a massacre of innocent people, did not say anything absurd or shocking. Simply the politicians of that time, personified in my emperor, was so corrupt as to not understand that killing thousands of innocent people in a stadium only to quell a small town was facing a very serious thing.
Carlo Borromeo in Milan but came at a time when the economic, political and moral was incredibly degraded. The political class Sforza of Milan after the defeat had not yet taken up and for about fifty years could not literally to administer the city and the Duchy - a decree of the emperor also enshrines the total dependence of the Duchy from the imperial will, obliterating years of struggle for independence -. The governors and the military empire, the English, then were too busy to maintain their role and their prestige and were often in cahoots with the local aristocratic families. In this context, a small man but harsh and stern, uncompromising, literally rolled over the city and completely transforming the Duchy and implementing a real moral reform and urban planning. I wonder was that Charles had invaded or the directors who were not able to manage? - Think that only a few years ago but the imperial troops were to invade Rome, for the second time in its long history was violated -.
I would say that in my town recently was a pastor intelligent and hard-to bring to the fore issues such as housing, that the then administration could not even deal with, but instead on the feast of St. Ambrose, I thank Cardinal Dionigi Tettamanzi for the words he used yesterday in the message to the city. Yesterday, while in fact he reminded the auttuali administrators the importance of intercultural dialogue, in a city that more and more hate and less welcome, while remember how hard they do, because even the latest state cuts, the non-profits and how well, on the other hand, they do taking care of things that governments do not deal with them, also came to talk about plans and PGT.
Yeah! Now that a cardinal is not talking about urban smile, cry. As an architect and a man I left pissed off about this invasion of the field or should I get angry because politicians and architects are not able to get equal attention, today indispensable to things, to the economic situation, family, etc, Who administers? Perhaps the cardinal and his staff, the Church, talk more with people and are more among the people? What kind of politicians we have, right and left, if anyone can think of now no additional cards and other red tape - the plan is done by Nerviano do not know how many cards, often useless - cards, analysis cards of counter cards, projects that never made, etc., have to do only one card yards social movements. A map of the worksites of the people who work for others, for immigrants, the poor, this needs to Milan, "of our cities, they need not make new cards PGT (Cardinal Dionigi Tettamanzi, 6 / 12/10 at 18:45). A paper that is where you can find all the associations that operate territory, a charter administrators remember the importance of dialogue not only in key election by the respective associations or groups of volunteer organizations, to remind the directors to listen to what their needs, the needs of those in contact with people and not with the bureaucracy - not to put on concerts in which one of these is a concert ... that is obviously the most part, because most have heard, the first -.
From here you can and must start again, I believe that a program for the upcoming elections is easy to do, just talk to people working in the territory ... not really invent anything!
