THE VALUE OF SYMBOLS
At the news of the Strasbourg ruling on the exposure of the crucifix in Italian schools, I came to throw a thank goodness! I wanted to write a note to explain why I agree with the decision I consider to be civil and respectful above all the value that believers should give as a symbol that represents all Christians.
I found in internet the following piece which clearly expresses my thought and then replied to make you participate.
The trivialization of a symbol

premise two things, not necessarily linked. The first is that not a believer. The second is that I find the ruling of the European Court of Human Rights against the obligation of the crucifix in a sign of civilization and legal culture. Again, to paraphrase the song of Berlusconi, I would say: "Fortunately, that Europe is." With these said, let I am surprised a bit 'of decomposed reaction of the Catholic hierarchy. For a Christian, should be crucified, even more than for an atheist like me, a symbol of sublime and terrible. Its trivialization as ornaments, confused with desks, a blackboard and other school furnishings, should be, that yes, a sacrilege. And the justification of the crucifix in schools as a mere habit, should sound good to the ears of Christians as a real bestemmia.Vietando the imposition of the Christ out of context, and its execution, the Strasbourg Court has recognized its full and awful dignity a religious symbol. That same dignity that the Church denies him defending the trivialization daily and obligatory.

What Is The Best Camcorder For Action
Luckily THESE MEN ARE ALSO THE PUBLIC SPACE
VIOLENCE
Man to man, a call of 'masculine plural' (Rome)
I'ma man and I see male violence around me. I also see, however, the desire for change of many men. I choose to face the violence and to listen to that desire for change. I know that desire is a resource to eradicate quellaviolenza. Faced with the stories of husbands who close their wives or beat the living daylights Incas, boyfriends who kill out of jealousy of his girls, of men who assault or rape women in a park or a garage, I do not think "I'm mad, drunk or maybe isolated immigrants! "I do not want to say:" That if you asked for it. "All This concerns me, we are concerned. When I hear the judge immigrants as a threat to "our women" remember that violence against women not born in the dark streets, but inside our homes, and is the work of many men, Italian or otherwise, who beat and kill "their" women. When I look at the irony, scorn, discrimination before the violence controlesbiche gay and I do not think: "Let them do what they like, but CasaLora. So as I'm concerned, we are concerned: the irony and contempt that I know them from childhood, are a threat to those who do not behave "like a man." The freedom to love who we want and how something is either for all or for none. When I think of women, often foreign, forced into prostitution, without rights, looking for ways out of difficult, I do not think that "ruin the decorum of the city." I see in their life due to a racism that progresses. Prostitution, or forced choice, he speaks first of the nine million Italian customers and sexuality of the male reduced to poverty relief and consumption. I believe that violence against homosexuals and transsexuals, the widespread demand for order and security, the rising tide of dehumanization of immigrants, racism, selfishness rampant, have to do with relations between the sexes: the fear and contempt for differences are a toxin that poisons our society. Every day I hear the call to every man to be complicit in this culture and to adhere to the ideology of traditional masculinity. I'm tired of the rhetoric of the homeland, the enemy and honor, manhood muscular and arrogant. When I watch the posturing of self by those who use money epotere to have the women, I feel that quell'ostentazione is wretched, miserable and sad too. For centuries, men buy, require, blackmail and exchange sex for a job or money. The news is bragging, winking to the other men in search of complicity. We are not, and not for envy or moralism. We are not interested to choose between consumption of women's bodies and self-respectable. In power prefer the freedom, the freedom to meet the desire to free women, including, possibly, their denial. When the contempt for women, the ostentation of power and threats against gays and foreigners are becoming models of masculinity to be used for political purposes, I understand and I feel I must and we must respond: how men more than as citizens. We feel the responsibility to engage, as men, against the violence that runs through our society and our relationships. Do not want to limit ourselves to "good manners" and "politically correct". We do not feel "protectors" or "liberators." We know that women are not "weak." Their freedom, their autonomy, in work, in life choices, sexuality, are not a threat to us and even a concession to their duty. They are an opportunity to live a life more free and rich. We just say we are against male violence against women. We want and believe in another civilization of the relationships between people, a different quality of life, free from fear and domination. We want to live a sexuality that is different from the confirmation of his manhood and his power. Many men have lived so far this attempt to change individually, looking for a new way of being a father, a different relationship with his partner, a different way relaxing with other men, a different relationship with work. This research, however, is often left alone and invisible, speechless. We want to express in person, we want the desire for freedom and change to thousands of people become a collective, visible, able to speak to other men.
