Catholic
Church blackmails the Parliament
Recently in Slovakia a widespread discussion about the imminent
LEGAL BAN of abortion took place. The original idea of banning came
from the governmental party KDH (Christian Democratic Movement), which
despite its 7 % electoral base aspires to DICTATE the whole nation its
anti-democratic views.
Fortunately the popular resistance
expressed by a host of NGO-s and especially by the attitude of another
governmental party - the
liberal party ANO (Alliance of the New Citizens) lead to an amendment of the
old “abortion law”, which allowed under
reasonably substantiated condition abortion legally.
The campaign, preceding the
final parliamentary vote was accompanied by a nightmarish intimidation and
spreading of religious delusions about the big crime of killing unborn
innocent children. It culminated in declaration from CHURCH Hierarchy
disseminated by all available channels that those deputies of parliament
(MP-s) who will vote for the amendment not consistent with Catholic Church
dogma ( and exaggerated demands of Bishops Conference) WILL BE EXCOMMUNICATED
from Catholic Church!!
Finally the parliament PASSED the amendment proposed by ANO (Alliance of the New Citizens) to the huge consternation of their governmental partner party KDH and the Catholic Hierarchy, which pulls the strings of that party behind the screen. Now they threaten with a parliamentary crisis and they are going to EXPEL the ANO governmental party from the government!!
ONE
MORE NICE PICTURE OF THE FUNDAMENTALIST DEVELOPMENT IN SLOVAKIA!
The
Catholic hierarchy is furious.
The
chairman of the Bishops Conference Bishop František Tondra, proclaimed that
the passing of that amendment has been a treachery committed on the ELECTORATE
( comment: which electorate ? those 7 % who want to DICTATE along with the
Bishops Conference the WHOLE NATION?) He continues to affirm: “In my opinion
they HAVE BEEN EXCOMMUNICATED”, but this excommunication can be reversed by
PENITENCE ( See: Pravda July 5,
2003)
Nice
blackmailing! If thee NP- s
change their mind everything in the eyes of GOD ALMIGHTY / and the Catholic
Church of Slovakia will be OK!)
The
Catholic fundamentalist clique CONTINUES namely its struggle trying to
persuade the PRESIDENT not to sign the law and to return it again to the
parliament.
