Crippled by the 2Ts.

The uncontrollable Violence (or left on purpose to grow) that is sweeping away both security and tolerance from our society now-a-days is nothing else but the ugly mask of Racism.. Pure religious, ethnic, sectarian, cultural and political Racism.. Sponsored by the Tyranny of ignorance and manifested through the arrogance of Terror.

The UN General Assembly has recognized that “Races do not exist”.  As Professor Albert Jaccard have always taught us: “exists only one Human Race consisted of 7 billion individuals, all equal yet in the same time all unique”. Obviously such statement by itself could not be sufficient to free us from the grasp of Racism. In any way at least it is capable of shaking off a few certainties.

Racism is peculiar to man. It is a fact: just as well it is worthy to consider the prevention from its progression and the fight against it by law. But that’s not enough. It is necessary to educate in order to demonstrate the absurdity of its fundamentals and to demolish its mechanisms and never to lower the guard.

A society where Education and Scientific Research are forecasted as ‘expenses’ instead of being valorised as ‘investments’, is destined to moral, social and economic deterioration; condemned to insignificance, and enslaved by all types of Tyranny (the main sponsor of Racism) and Terror (the iron fist of Racism).

The fight against Racism must become our daily commitment and in every domain within the society; because Racism is not a temporary trend or a season’s fashion; it is a mental state which sustains man’s weaknesses, errors and give-ins!

That’s why I took the liberty to recall the definitions of what we got used to consider as certainties, yet most of us are in difficulty to be coherent with their disciplinary teachings: 

ü  Repentance: the recognition of one’s proper guilt; linked, on moral or religious grounds, to the firm intention of never again to fall back.

ü  Redemption: liberation from a state of grave inferiority above all moral. Freeing man from sin. The restitution, via an intervention held as providential or divine, into a state of moral, social or political liberty.

In the absence of shame and sense of responsibility, there will be no salvation. A society where Criminality gets the upper hand over Legality, and where Racism overwhelms Equity; shame and the sense of responsibility are destined to succumb.

The ‘Economic Crisis’ cannot stand as a justification for Racism; however it may play a significant role as an accelerator.. It is a pretext for men to home inside ignorance and bask in the comfortable refuge of prejudice.

Pass On The Word.
