Yes, in lowercase, so they don't think otherwise! Because I am thinking of the coming holiday, the holy holiday of Christians, when the Christian world remembers the earthly birth of the son of God, Jesus Christ. Provided they let you!
Because we can be proud of the fact that in our modern world we have succeeded in instilling in us the unconditional admiration of "otherness" to the extreme, and even the murderer must be embraced, since he probably kills because of his difficult childhood, and it is precisely the killing of Christians that brings him peace of mind , something is very wrong in the world. We supposedly have religious freedom, that is, they advertise it, but in reality there is none. In fact, there is persecution of Christians, and this has already been established by many "officials", proving with data that Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world. I also read data according to which every eighth Christian is affected by discrimination. In our world, which refers so often to human rights, the facts now regularly show that religious freedom means that, for example, French churches could be turned into roller-skating training halls. Freely. Let's not even talk about assassinations against Christian priests, there have been so many of them, just as the destruction of holy images, priceless paintings and statues referring to Christianity has become almost everyday in our "modern" and chaotic world.
I could not say exactly when our modern persecution began. Let it be the job of the scientific analysts to pinpoint the origin. But there are many signs and proofs that the campaign against Christians began in the countries that claim to be Christian, or partially Christian, in the empire of the believers of the modern world. It started with minor signs. It is likely that many people remember the news published in several newspapers about twenty years ago that a Finnish-Italian dual citizen, a mother of two children, came up with the idea of removing the cross hanging in the classrooms at her children's school, because it violates her children's freedom of religion. And the court in Italy ruled that the presence of the crucifix is contrary to the principle of state neutrality. What the hell is state neutrality, explain it to whoever wants to, let them argue about it, in any case, the case stirred up a lot of dust for a few days. Then there was silence. And similar cases began to multiply, and I may be wrong, but I think that these kinds of provocations were not and are primarily aimed at the cross, but show that it is necessary to create confusion in people's minds, to unsettle people, to take away their spiritual grips. , their past, family ties, holidays, and last but not least, they must be shown that they are obliged to ignore their own religious symbols, just so as not to offend non-Catholics and atheists. The others. What is this if not self-surrender? If only because there was no attempt at rebellion. To the loud protest. That freedom of thought, religion and speech belongs to everyone, not just to the violent "few".
Almost two decades ago, Hungarian dailies also reported on the article of the Washington Times, in which they informed the esteemed readers that the use of the word Christmas is becoming less and less accepted.
And so, obviously frightened, a Kansas newspaper went so far as to apologize in a correction for accidentally calling a Christmas tree a Christmas tree. According to them, the correct name is: community tree. There was, or apparently still is, a settlement in that area where the representatives of the local church could not be among those celebrating the anniversary of their existence, because they represent, so to speak, a "direct religious topic". The protest was missed, or the "free" press just didn't report it. So the madness has been building up for quite a few years now, and the majority of Hungarian readers do not need to be convinced that every minority can march in our country if they want to. Who knows how long? The world has become so messed up, those who create chaos on purpose and daily work so diligently and pour their distorted views on us every day, that it is becoming more and more difficult not only to navigate, but also to live in the spiritual terror. Because there is no question that spiritual terror is taking place on the part of the representatives of power who want to bring the world under their control, because we experience it every day.
I don't know if you have noticed that the daily news is now talking about how long the decorative lighting should "live" on the upcoming holidays in the times of war forced on Europe?
Should the festive, "sanctioned" lights be turned off at 6 p.m. in civilized Europe, or should the lights and decorations be left on even longer? There is no mention of Christianity or the essence of the holiday.
And reflecting on our lives, we can state with stoic calm that there are still many people living on Earth who have experienced nationalism, Nazism, communism, socialism, and perhaps they never thought that they have now arrived in a world that is an unrestrained nihilistic world. And a coward. Because he doesn't dare to face life's biggest questions. He can't even defend himself. He's gone, he's gotten comfortable. He despises and denies the most beautiful and holiest human qualities, the divine gifts. Among other things, our beautiful holiday, Christmas, its essence. And he does not fight for their survival. In fact, as the few examples above prove, he fights against it.
Today, every day of the year has a "world day". However, the world day for the praise of normality and created life is still missing from the collection.
No problem! We should strive to make every day of the year serve such an idea. To the divine command, to the realization of spirit and love. No one, neither philosophers, nor theologians, nor Jesus himself, ever disputed that this is a very difficult task. There are many obstacles, ditches, rocks that are extremely difficult to jump over and climb. Just as it is difficult to accept and implement the commandment "do not be afraid". After all, the world is full of fear. They try to take our faith and illusions away from us every day. Because we'll let it. Why, well, that should be deciphered to the hair's breadth and a vision made of it. Because then the medicine could also arrive. But that requires faith, hope and courage.
In anticipation of our beautiful celebration, here is an excerpt from Sándor Sándor's poem A Christmas Carol: "Then a star lit up in the sky / And beamed over the countryside, / And standing above Nativity, / In the gloom of a ragged barn / Glory was already shining: / There in a shirt, in beautiful white, / He lay in the holy lap of the manger / The only-begotten Son of God... // The news went around the world, / And wise men and kings came / And single-minded people and shepherds / There all souls agreed / And wept and looked dreamily / And happily prayed: / Bringing joy to the to man, / Glory be to God!”
