Lucetta Scaraffia Osservatore Romano publishes an article that I fully agree and that summarizes the decay man of our times. The assault on institutions like the Church or religion is descended from this phobia, which has permeated the consciousness of people. We could call it "social inertia", the renunciation of the values that casts man into slavery and its vices that welcomes the new sex and money. [...] The traditional education was also in the exercise of the virtues that were taught and where young people had to train their minds. Patience, prudence, obedience, humility, generosity and charity, solidarity, courage: they were all behaviors that were learned in an educational model centered on the teaching of virtues - that was obtained by drilling in practice in daily life - and escape from their face opposite vices. But as you can, today, teach kids to escape from the vices in our culture because their sentence has disappeared? Just be careful, and there they go, covered for more costly array, and accepted by all as praiseworthy behavior, to practice. How do you order the [...] throat when eating and drinking have become a thriving business sector, and all he does is seen as a positive gain. The throat so it's good, because it is functional to the market. And so it happens even for lust, which today has become a legitimate pursuit of pleasure beyond emotional and much less familiar: revolve around the film industry, many television programs, magazines, the world of porn not to mention the sex tourism and the pharmaceutical industry for contraceptives. A good business, of course, that it is difficult to touch, so that today the pursuit of pleasure even seems to have been included among the human rights, at least for the World Health Organization. And the anger? Even today this negative sentiment to be expressed, expressed no shame to prevent, compressed, giving rise to physical or mental illness. Selfishness has become acceptable and self-love, narcissism, which promotes the consumption and investment in aesthetic improvements, the need for security becomes greed, envy - when it is removed - is mistaken for healthy competition. Of course we are referring to attitudes of exaggerated, repeated, excessive: a good lunch from time to time, proper care of themselves, a healthy rivalry is anything but reprehensible. But really talk about vices and virtues is ridiculous and useless, besides being out of fashion? After all, these lists contain a hint of human attitudes that, in life, can be useful, can lead the way at times complex. Moreover, the theory has the great merit of the virtues of represent the human being as a possibility to implement and regulate, not an individual already taken by itself, can not improve . It therefore offers a dynamic vision, undoubtedly necessary to anyone wishing to undertake an education: if we imagine that human beings are capable of continuous improvement, we can indeed turn to them with the hope to pass something good. -------------------
phobia of discipline is in fact a negative value is very harmful for society and for individual life because it prevents improvement.
