provocation, perhaps, is not new.
comes from my old friend, met again on Facebook a few weeks ago and is based on a simple concept: if the cost of crucifixes in public buildings Italians were invested in a different way, you do something ptrebbe interesting, such as stem-albeit slightly-the brain drain.
For example: if we estimate (and round down) the cost of a crucifix around € 2, multiply by the number of classes in Italy (as learned from the site www.istruzione.it) gives 695842 € that may have been detached from the wall and invested more profitably. From this count were excluded bland classroom teachers, the presidents and bidellerie, hospitals, courts and public offices. There is talk of some milioncino. For goodness sake, is not somehow figure that, relative to other waste, but deliberately shakes the conscience on a topic of interest: the presence of religious symbols (and values \u200b\u200bthat represent them) in public buildings and the cost of this presence. The speech could easily extend to the interference of power within the Vatican State, but it would be our long story to explain in a little post on the weblog.
Just to throw the first stone, always inspired by comments in the bulletin board of the Facebook group in question, and I quote the Italian Constitution:
Article 7 The State and the Catholic Church are, each in its own, independent and sovereign.
Art.8
All religious confessions are equally free before the law.
Religious confessions other than Catholic have the right to organize themselves according to their own statutes, are not in conflict with the Italian legal system.
I think it is sufficient as a starting point - the floor to comments and the link:
