We are freer with four bare walls around us? We no longer lay the crucifix in the classroom? We are happier without symbols around us?
still many questions, many questions: first things first by making some considerations.
First of all on the cross, symbol of eternal all artists, Christian or not, for example in the history of art have come to terms with the cross and carves at any time and in any way (including Gauguin, of course! ) even countries Scandinavian lay-by definition and by their supporters in this town-strong ruling, crosses are clearly evident in their national flags and no one would dream of removing them (maybe because nobody has ever noticed).
And the cross is a symbol, some of Christianity but also of peace, of suffering for others, love and mercy, the crucifix is \u200b\u200ba Christian symbol and remove it completely shared by all is a victory for secularism, but the victory of one faction, the one against the crucifix.
Beyond cultural identity and roots (speech, however complex and should be tackled because it is incredible in Europe it is known that the festival is November and I rejoice Halloween ...) beyond the buckle, I said, at the base are two things: some want to eradicate certain symbols because now you are no longer used to treat them. You should not talk about political meanings of the symbols because none of the "defenders" of the crucified political ambitions but only certain religious and cultural. The political significance of the symbols they see them and use them only those who want to remove the cross talking about fascism, eight per thousand and so on.
can be difficult to live with the symbols: the crucifix shocked, upset, makes you think.
Too for the third millennium. Much better than the white walls, to charity.
