Bad news from Ireland

The victory of the no in the referendum on the Lisbon Treaty in Ireland is bad news for the gay, lesbian and transgender people in Italy. Why?

must remember that the Lisbon Treaty is a compromise between the member countries to replace the European constitution rejected by French and Dutch referendums. Although a compromise in quality on many issues including fundamental, the Treaty refers explicitly (although it does not integrate it as it did the Constitution) the Charter of Fundamental Rights del'Unione European Union, which contains the principles of equality and non discrimination that over the years has always referred to them in Italian initiatives for equal opportunities for LGBT people.

It is no coincidence that the Charter has been the main target of controversy and clerical Vatican against Europe (the famous relativism ...), controversy particularly strong in those countries where the Catholic Church has more influence: Poland, which in fact has obtained an exclusion clause on the implementation of its Charter, Italy and Ireland (by chance ...).

Mind you, I do not think the Irish referendum to block the adoption of the Treaty (which no country has proposed to examine their own people for fear that you experience what then happened in Ireland, after France and Holland) but will certainly give new impetus to political parties and cultural forces in conflict with a stronger and more egalitarian in Europe its national law.

The Irish referendum, in other words, confirms a possible common strategy for all those parts that for one reason or another they will reduce the strength of the European institutions and to limit the power of interference by the countries. Nationalists in each region to the clerical fundamentalists (Catholics or Protestants who are) the objective is unique, and if you can not (or not you have the courage ...) scuttle the EU institutions, each step back against the goal of having a single Europe (even in the symbolism and the terminology used) is important.

clerical forces for some time have come to realize that Europe is a threat from their point of view, and acted accordingly. So far no major results, in truth, but certainly if the pressure is increasing in European circles now explicitly speaks of the need to reform the functioning of the Court of Justice of European Communities (Luxembourg based) and its power over states national.

In Italy seems to be the problem longer heard: the European directives and resolutions of Parliament do not fear much, especially in light of recent election results which led to a political majority has more than one reason to maintain an ongoing conflict with the EU institutions. But the possibility that, relying on the Treaty and its Charter of Rights, you can get a conviction on matters of Italy "sensitive" (such as recognition of the rights of unmarried couples or same-sex marriage) through the ordinary courts is much more concrete and therefore dangerous.

is why any kind is to be expected initiative on this front, too, why not a popular instrument for such consultation (perhaps to be negotiated in exchange for substantial changes to the Treaty).

is why the civil action promoted by the radical assertion of certain rights of request for publication of the application for marriage by same-sex revolt in the Commons, is even more urgent and significant.

Gay gay angry or horny?

I did have some aspect of this campaign: we go out for nearly three years in which the "homosexual question" has been consistently on the altars of political commentary, mainly because of timely, consistent and powerful opposition of the Vatican hierarchy of any measure that would legalize the lives of homosexual persons and couples, in fact, legitimize the homosexual behavior. And I thought that this was the time to listen to new words by the parties, after the first campaign (now "heroic") of the Radical Party.

But beyond the controversy on the nominations, none has developed a clear and direct message to gay people. Yes, of course, there are important commitments in the programs of the Rainbow Left and the Socialists and the Democratic Party has at least made the effort to basically repeat the same words of previous program of the Olive. But only the Socialists have developed a real advertisement directed at gay people.
If you have missed it can see on www.partitosocialista.it : The campaign has a title and that 'all: "We are angry." Read the title of the campaign expects a pissed images, or not? Instead of the five faces chosen to represent the five themes of incazzatura - and then imagine five categories of people expected to vote Socialist - three are decent people and relaxed, which should represent the workers, angry and insecure women, one representing the elderly - objectively the more pissed of the five - while the last is a gay, except that everything looks pissed. Indeed it is a babe with a red beard and sparse, blue eyes and parted lips, which may well appear on one of the many erotic magazines that are published in the world.

What's wrong, you say? We must capture the attention of the target and convince him to vote. Basically there are those who sell shoes for women with ads that show girls to men with shorts bursts and advertisements showing fustaccioni panties swollen.
But, while flying over the fact that at least half of gay people in Italy are women (and probably pissed too, shall we?) Remains the feeling of a certain superficiality drawing up the advertisement and the strategy of political marketing that can be glimpsed behind (if there is a strategy).
I do not believe that selling is like selling policy briefs, and did not intend for ethical reasons, but because it takes a consistent message and image. If the socialists really think that gay people are angry because they aim to convince them to vote sull'ammiccamento erotic? We imagine all so horny and in the grip of our sexual instincts to be unable to resist the pretty face on the board election socialist?
Of course we like sex, but I seem to recall any election campaign eroticism conveyed, for any category of voter. Just with us was supposed to start?

Facts About Eyebrow Waxing And Tanning

too smart VATICAN

The newspapers and TV newscasts today gave a clear representation, I would say plastic, the paradoxical situation in which the relationship between church and state in our country. I choose the three things that best sum up the situation: the Pope's address at La Sapienza, the statements Ruini sull'Angelus next Sunday and the statements of Mrs. Mastella.

Benedict XVI's speech is, as usual, extraordinarily lucid and very useful to understand what animates the Catholic Church today (visible from at least fifteen years, ever since he came to life and has spread what he called the CEI " Project cultural, "a new Catholic presence in modern society). The calmness of the arguments, but also the look of long perspective that characterizes this pontificate are the main features of a speech that although criticism is not the return of the Holy Inquisition, but ... ..
He could have said something different? Of course not, because contrary to what you think of a better band Italic superficialoni the Church today is not the same as a hundred or two hundred years ago. But since you have to go to the substance of things, beyond the smoke of controversy, we can not say that the Pope's speech did not represent (again, could not be otherwise) any attack secularism or democracy.

against the substance of the facts was unfurled before our eyes a true festival of hypocrisy, on one side with a bunch of idiots (the definition is Cacciari, and this time I agree with) those who are not protesting because against the words of the Pope, but because they have asked for the complaint. On the other directed, masterfully conducted by the Catholic hierarchy, the controversy is that the coupe du Theatre to give up being here and what is below. Mind you, I instead of Benedict XVI, Cardinal Bertone say ... sorry, I have decided the same thing, that I would not have exposed the Papacy, not so much aggression, regarding the possibility of a clear dispute of his thought in a public venue such as the University in the City as "Papal" in the world. He reiterated, this is, to stop a campaign of cultural influence on modern scientific thought and that this papacy has opened in grand style. But you can not deny that the choice of leaving home, the Pope took the extraordinary effect of passing the same as the "victim". We had read articles and phrases literally raving about the alleged censorship Catholic thought in our country will suffer when the reality is completely different (data center listening radical son them 'a certificate). The lie more evident in the pieces we read of the Vatican reported that a unanimous interpretation of the Vatican's choice: the hierarchy would have chosen in this way because the Italian institutional leaders have been slow to take a stand for the Pope's Sapienza. What chutzpah to ar filter this subject: our politicians have made the competition to see who declared for the first and most vehement in its solidarity with the Vatican, both right and left, starting with the President of the Republic.
The litmus test that behind the Vatican's choice there is a watchful eye on the size of the Catholic presence in our country that have little pastoral, is contained in the words of Ruini that calls Catholics to the streets Sunday. Mind you, today, the agency stated that it is not a political call, but only to a rally of solidarity (... and his nose gets longer. ...) But regardless of whether it seems to me at least an exaggeration to show solidarity with those who seem always what he wants in the Italian media (wonderful cartoon on Altan Republic ... ...) this is misuse, parademocratico of social and political mobilization of the church of "his troops." We have had a shining example for the referendum on the law of assisted reproduction, with the campaign for abstention, as well as the latest campaign of "moratorium on abortion" I do not know if define more hypocritical and irresponsible.
Certainly this was not the objective that the "bunch of idiots" set himself, but the reality is different, and under the eyes of all: a great opportunity for the Catholic hierarchy to "prove" the minority, the ' exclusion, and to build more strength in those who work for a more binding force of Catholic values \u200b\u200bin our country.

Finally we found yet another unseemly uproar Italian politicians on this subject: the best he has given Mrs. Mastella said that she and her husband (and their party) are being investigated because "Catholics" (sic " ) and that the only thing I really want to do despite being under house arrest is to be in place Sunday Angelus (double sic). I can not but admire the extraordinary consistency of Mastella that (as always, at this juncture) are transparent in their size blatantly instrumental in improperly wield the weapon of faith.

The Catholic Church has now demonstrated an intelligent use, sometimes even aggressive, more unscrupulous of communication strategies to impose their own agenda of priorities in public discourse. A modern church, which only understands the mechanisms of our society and use them in unconventional way: it may be my professional bias to give so much importance to the communicative aspects of coexistence in our society, but I would like someone to explain to me whether it is feasible to disregard those aspects and do not ask, we are the first, if the ends justify the means. E 'preach Christ sufficient to justify the lies?
