2 comentariosVer comentarios En la procatedral de Dublín hay una lámpara ardiente en memoria de las víctimas de los abusos sexuales del clero irlandés
Ante ella, se recogió el Papa Francisco, con el corazón dolorido por esa plaga que aflige a la Iglesia
Avergonzado por esa sombra alargada, que persigue al Papa de Roma allá donde va. Y eso que es el Papa de la 'tolerancia cero real'
Ante la zarza ardiente del Sinaí se arrodilló Moisés, esperando los mandamientos de Dios
Cual nuevo Moisés, Francisco sabe que la lámpara ardiente de los abusos, que ya ha consumido la inocencia de tantos inocentes, puede acabar con su pontificado y, sobre todo, con la credibilidad de la institución que preside en la caridad
El incendio de los abusos tiene, hasta ahora, tres focos principales: Estados Unidos, Chile y, precisamente, la Irlanda, que ahora visita Francisco, para presidir el Encuentro Mundial de la Familia
El Papa sabe que su principal reto será convencer a las familias irlandesas y, por extensión, a las familias de todo el mundo, de que, a pesar de la plaga de los abusos, la Iglesia sigue siendo una institución en la que las familias pueden confiar
Una institución segura para sus hijos. Examen de conciencia, dolor de los pecados, propósito de la enmienda, decir los pecados al confesor y cumplir la penitencia
Son los cinco requisitos para una buena confesión. El Papa Francisco volvió a entonar un solemne y público 'mea culpa' por los clérigos abusadores y los obispos encubridores de los "crímenes repugnantes" de la plaga de la pederastia
Pero las peticiones de perdón, aunque sean sentidas y obligadas, como en este caso, no son suficientes
Hay que pasar a los hechos. Hay que cumplir la penitencia. Francisco sabe que la gente espera respuestas concretas
Eso significa, en primer lugar, acercarse de verdad a las víctimas. Para escucharlas, acogerlas y, sobre todo, resarcirlas de su dolor y de sus heridas
Con protección real y ayuda psicológica, evidentemente pagada por la institución
Y con todo tipo de ayudas que necesiten, especialmente las materiales. Que a esas vidas destruidas no les falte lo necesario para vivir y puedan salir adelante lo más dignamente posible
Y si eso significa que la institución tiene que arruinarse, que se arruine. Y si tiene que vender palacios, iglesias y hasta el propio Vaticano, que lo haga
Vale más la vida de un inocente que todas las riquezas eclesiásticas acumuladas durante tantos siglos
La segunda medida tendría que ser la expulsión ipso facto de todos los obispos encubridores
Porque muchos de ellos ordenaron a esos abusadores y otros los encubrieron y no ejercieron uno de sus papeles primordiales: el de 'inspector'
A la calle, por no ejercer su responsabilidad in vigilando, muchos o casi todos. Porque el cáncer del encubrimiento era sistémico
La punta del iceberg ha aflorado en Estados Unidos, Chile, Irlanda.pero en las iglesias de todos los demás países del mundo se funcionaba de la misma manera
El abuso era considerado un pecadillo, al cura se le cambiaba de parroquia o, en última instancia, se le mandaba a misiones y se le pedía que se arrepintiese y se confesase, para seguir pecando
Y nunca o casi nunca se consideraba el abuso un delito y, por lo tanto, no se remitía a los abusadores a la justicia civil
La situación ideal para los depredadores sexuales, que, revestidos del poder sagrado (la máxima expresión del poder), tenían acceso ilimitado a niños, niñas, mujeres y hombres (según sus apetencias) y, además, sabían que estaban protegidos por la omertá eclesial
En tercer lugar, el Vaticano tendría que pedir perdón y revisar las responsabilidades de altos cargos curiales en la dinámica sistémica del encubrimiento
¿Qué sabía Juan Pablo II de todo esto? ¿Su secretario personal, monseñor Dziwisz, y su Secretario de Estado, cardenal Sodano, le hacían llegar los casos de abusos que, ya entonces, proliferaban en la institución? ¿Por qué el Papa Wojtyla nunca condenó a un depredador sexual como Marcial Maciel y, al contrario, lo bendijo y lo presentó como modelo para la juventud? Depurar responsabilidades en una Curia que rigió los destinos de la Iglesia con mano de hierro hasta la llegada de Francisco al solio pontificio
Es urgente, en cuarto lugar y como dice el propio Francisco, conseguir una "transformación eclesial y social" respecto a este tema
La eclesial, que es la que le corresponde a la institución, pasa por acabar, de una vez por todas, con el clericalismo, la otra gran plaga del catolicismo, que alimenta la dinámica del abuso sexual, de poder y de conciencia
Cristo no quiso una Iglesia clerical, pero es el tipo de Iglesia que se impuso y que sigue vigente
¿Hasta cuándo? ¿Cuándo será real y efectiva la corresponsabilidad de lo laicos? En quinto lugar y como consecuencia de una Iglesia laical y 'pueblo de Dios', habría que revisar todo el andamiaje de la doctrina moral, especialmente de la moral sexual
Reivindicar una sexualidad normalizada y bien entendida es una de las asignaturas pendientes de la institución
Hay que reconocer la importancia de la sexualidad en la vida de las personas y no reprimirla en sus propios cuadros: monjas y curas que, para ser castos, tienen que reprimir sus instintos y poner puertas al mar de la libido
Casi siempre sin éxito alguno y con derivas pecaminosas y delictivas. De ahí que, en sexto lugar y mientras no se cambia el modelo clerical, la Iglesia debería instaurar, desde ya mismo, el celibato opcional para sus sacerdotes
El carisma del voto de castidad que se quede para los religiosos. El carisma celibatario no puede imponerse, para acceder al sacerdocio
El apóstol Pedro estaba casado y el celibato obligatorio es una ley eclesiástica que, así como se impuso, puede derogarse
Y ya tarda. Y, por último, entre las medidas urgentes a tomar por el Papa, ocupa un lugar primordial la inmediata equiparación de la mujer al hombre en la Iglesia
A todos los niveles. Incluso y como es lógico, en el acceso al altar y al sacerdocio
Si el laico es un ciudadano de segunda en la Iglesia, la mujer no llega a ciudadana de tercera
Sólo así, con estos siete requisitos (y quizás alguno más) se pueden cumplir las cinco condiciones de una buena confesión, especialmente la última: cumplir realmente la penitencia del tsunami de los abusos sexuales, de poder y de conciencia
Francisco sabe que es hora de pasar de los mea culpa a los hechos y cambiar el sistema teológico-organizativo eclesial que, hasta ahora, se basa casi exclusivamente en el clero, para pasar a centrarse en el laicado, en el santo pueblo de Dios

bougainvillea needs to be repotted once every two-three years in springtime
now i'm going to repot this bonsai
first
removing the old soil with a bonsai tool
carefully remove the soil and do not hurt the root system
next
root pruning
removing only the outlying and long roots
do not prune main root system
and also do not prune more than 40% of all roots
next
potting the bougainvillea in bonsai pot
i just place a piece of coco husk to cover the drainage hole
then put the new bonsai soil
place the plant in center of the pot
bonsai pot that will hug the root ball as closely as possible while still allowing some soil for watering
then
add the bonsai soil and completely cover the root ball with bonsai soil
next

making sure to fill all the air pockets around the root system
next pruning
maintenance-pruning
to maintain and refine the existing shape of a bonsai
prune the branches that have grown out of shape

i just add the stones on top of the soil to keep moisture
now continuing leaf pruning
prune long shoots using a twig shear
remove about 80% of all leaves
to grow thicker branches or a thicker trunk remove the flowers at all times
but do not prune the branches
removing the tips after each blooming cycle will encourage the growth of multiple new shoots
this increasing ramifications
keep in shade for few days

Talking of the benefits of rice water, it tones up and softens the skin beautifully.
Besides that, it prevents the skin from sun damaging and early aging (fights wrinkles).
You all have seen the black and silky hair of Chinese and Japanese women.
Rinsing their hair with the left-over water (after rinsing the rice) of rice is the real
secret.
For hair, you are supposed to wash your hair with this uncooked and unpolished rice water.
For skin, soak the unpolished rice in the water.
Leave it that way until the water looks white like milk.
Dip the cotton in this water and apply on your face and neck.
You can keep this water stored in refrigerator for about 3 to 4 days.
7.

Philippines - What shocked me & summary of my getaway - Duration: 28:54.
Okay, so let's start
I reckon that today
is a perfect day to do a retrospective
it's a perfect day
for a summary of my trip to the PH
I have exactly 1 week left until i leave
until I land in Berlin, on german soil
in Schonefeld
today my AC broke
I got a massive pimple in the middle of my forehead
and I almost got
thrown away form this terrace
supposedly it's closed now
that's life - imma still here lol
so yeah, let's start!
To be honest
this is the most
eye-opening experience
in my life
because this place is filled with so many different things
and perspective of living here, working, eating, being with people
and so on
is completely different than the one in Europe
therefore this (my) european point of view
is mixing with asian point of view, and actually Philippines
is a perfect country for - I guess
the 'westerners' who want to experience asia
because PH from all of these countries in Asia are
the most 'westernised'
it comes from the fact that barely
50 years ago, PH was an American protectorate
so Americans left over many cultural traits now
unfortunatelly tho; now one of the most favourite
meals in PH is a fried chicken alla KFC
so welcome to modern PH
But nevertheless PH is an eye-opening experience
and your perspective on life broadens
look: behind me is Makati
it's a business district
separated by the river from this:
that is a Pasig river, one of the most polluted rivers in the world
and here well
those are the dwellings of normal people
and
those 'fields of steets'
that's what those are - fields
are endless
here is one, and on the other side, another
2nd
there is Tondo
where people do not have socks XD
i don't even know how to describe those poor people
Tondo is simply poor slum
there is QC
oh, not a QC, different district
QC is there, but anyway
you get my point
those are people who are living in Metal shack 3x3m
and on the other side
are people in glass towers
playing with millions of cash
therefore from this perspective, PH have extremely
affected me, and eye-opened me
I remember that I came here
-okay i am crazy, but-
and the very next day i woke up and went
alongside the river
not checking where to go, just forward
I made it to those slums on the opposite side
slums of Sta. Anna District
and that was the first time I saw
children work.
It was a construction site, with 5, 7 years old
children, walking and carrying
20kg cement bags
shit happens there
there are extreme poor examples
and there are examples of really rich people and districts
where - even in Maastricht, I don't see
shops like
Dior, Prada or Burberry
the one so exclusive they burn their past collections
last year - worth 30M$
anyway' my point is
that here you have a lot of class differences
colliding with each other
however strangely, it all coexist with each other
and Phiplippines in this regard definately
are an introduction to understanding, observing the poor side of Asia
Currently Metro Manila is gigantic
officially 17M people
unofficially, well over 20M
and it all somehow works
due to the scale there are various problems here like
water - tap water is not suitable for drinking
you have to buy the bottled water, bc tap water is simply bad
*here I also mean that boiled tap water is also bad for health*
I suppose, slum people are drinking it all anyway but
anyone filipino or not, I asked are telling me not to drink tap water
what else-
you go outside
and under your glass tower are homless people
and it's very common. There is a woman
who lives here on a piece of concrete wall
under a plastic blanket, 50cm x 2m
and that is her house
and this is the daily reality
society is not equal
are there any social grants or retirement funds?
I have no clue, don't think so
So you can see this is completely different from europe
and it is far away form how it should look like
anyway - going more towards 'lighter' subjects
what shocked me
in PH is
first of all - Asian food
millions of weird fruits
with different tastes; even fruits I know, they just taste differently
flavourful, phenomenal
Aroma and smell is amazing
and taste
and the intensity of all of this
one word - amazing
but also weird food like
banana ketchup
apparently it's normal here
or filipino tradition is to
cover all the grilled meats
or roasted - overall is to add everywhere
vinegar
I think that in Poland or in Europe
vinegar is either rarely used
or not used at all
but here vinegar is a basic thing
kitchen without vinegar is like kitchen without a Winiary Mayo in Poland lol
I find it quite interesting
from different things - as far as I think
(I am totally unscripted here so just freetalking now)
Asians really have problem with alco tolerance
extremely low tolerance - 3 shots and they are drunk af
4 shots and they die
there is also a lot of homeless
cats and dogs
In Manila, mainly cats
countryside mostly dogs
no clue why
Also I like it here very much
wait - not behind me
it's there
- it's a tower in so called chinese style
where you have 'dragon windows'
if you know it from HK or anywhere else fine
if not then let me show you
- you build a tower
with holes
apparently feng shui dictates you
that you should not clogg the natural space
with random objects
since it brings chaos
so you make holes in towers
so the 'dragons can fly thru'
That's where the name come from
It all comes from chinese traditions
[at this moment i gave up with making subtitles, bare with me until i finish them]

Liberty & Justice for All Episode 1 Introduction & Political Persuasion Techniques - Duration: 18:29.
Hello and welcome to the liberty and justice for all podcast
This is emily olson checking in from Salt Lake City
this summer has been hot and smoky from multiple fires throughout the state of Utah and
From smoke that gets into the jet stream from other western states and Canada
My heart goes out to all those who have suffered loss as a result of the record-breaking blazes were trying to quell
This week was the funeral of Matthew Burchell an experienced firefighter from Draper, Utah
Who lost his life fighting wildfires in California? I?
Truly admire the outpouring of support for virtuals family friends and colleagues
Virtuals funeral was covered live on the local ksl radio this week and despite its utter sadness was a beautiful display of patriotism
And have a united community
It was a nice break actually from the usual national political rhetoric. That seems to be bombarding us lately
Regardless of your views on the environment regarding the causes of these ever frequent giant fires and
Despite what your opinions are in our current volatile political climate
We can all agree this week that Matthew Burchell who had fought wildfires for two decades is a hero
For all the lives he helped preserve and the property he's saved from damage
This is the first episode of the liberty and justice for all' podcast and the first in my political
series where I seek to make sense of the hot volatile political climate
We're in the middle of where the political parties have become more polarized today than I've ever seen. I
Come from a conservative family and have friends and
Extended family members who were raised an even more conservative families than me
I also have an increasing number of friends who have a left-leaning persuasion
now fairly recently
I dialed a few degrees to the left on the political spectrum and this summer
I officially went to the dark side and registered as a Democrat that
Doesn't necessary mean that I will only vote for Democrats now
I mean
I anticipate that sometimes a Republican candidate will align more with my views
But lately I have realized that my persuasions no longer matched those of the Republican Party today
The Republican Party in general has slipped more than a few notches to the right in recent years
So by default I move left but I also made some left-leaning changes to my views
It didn't happen overnight and I can't say that I can Chuck everything up to the fact that I married a Democrat five years ago
But that certainly played a role
My husband and I both follow politics closely
We both come from families that regularly discuss politics around the dinner table
So my husband and I discussed politics a lot together
even when we first started dating as it was a strong point of Attraction for both of us and
We found that we agree on most political subjects
He persuaded me on a few things and I probably influenced his views in other areas
I think that I should also explain that I feel like getting married
Being a life-changing decision that it is has given me a new perspective on issues such as reproductive rights
immigration laws and health care coverage
But lately I've had a lot to talk about regarding
National politics and I have a desire to add my voice to the sea of opinions out there
My main goal in this podcast is to explain as respectfully as possible to my conservative family and friends
Why I became a Democrat in all sincerity politics more than ever
Has become such a point of angst amongst even my close loved ones
That it has affected my desire to attend family dinners for fear that a heated political
Discussion might ensue. I am sure you or someone, you know can relate with me
There are at least three main reasons why I switched to the dark side
I refuse to be associated with any political party in which white supremacy or racism is an acceptable
mentality or practice
I'm also upset that the Republican Party continues slacking support for programs that help to take care of the poor
Further I am distraught by the Republican Congress which chooses to turn a blind eye to
the clear corruption displayed by President Trump
But before I plunge into extensive essays on each of these topics in this episode
I wish to discuss best practices for interpreting the media today
You may think I am completely changing the subject
But I believe that much of the disconnect happening in this country right now can be attributed not solely to the media
But also to our an interpretation of the media
With degrees and journalism and business much of my career has involved various aspects of marketing
so I absorb the media differently than many I
Have always been one of those people who enjoys the commercials as much as the show
Just asked my husband
Much to his annoyance. I will sometimes dissect a commercial to identify the market
they are trying to target as well as any
psychographics that they may be tapping into I mean national companies spend millions of dollars on advertising
So a commercial that may appear frivolous is actually developed very strategically down to the clothing and colors color themes
The commercials that pique my interest in this regard are often ones that are not designed to appeal to my particular
market group and I think
Why did a company spend that kind of money on such a random message?
If I look to see how for example maybe a middle-aged man
Or the caregiver of an elderly relative would view it the message usually becomes clear
It is with this mentality that we have needed to approach politics and the media lately
the world changed when the sitting president of the United States started using Twitter to communicate directly with his
constituents and with the world
social media and YouTube also speed up how quickly a new cycle lasts
Not too long ago a new cycle would usually last 24 to 48 hours
And now we just aren't getting all the news if we are tuning in only Wednesday
Today breaking news often evolves more quickly than we can blink
That is why I have made it my part-time job for the last two years to watch and read the news from multiple sources. I
Prefer to get the news and its rawest form reported right when it happens so that I can better distinguish between news and commentary
Unfortunately in some cases
Today we are distinguishing between commentary and propaganda
Lately it seems we have needed a map a guide an app whatever you want to call it to tell us what we should believe
When we should believe it and when we should be skeptical
Actually the guide from centuries ago about the boy who cried wolf
Still does a pretty good job at explaining things. Unfortunately, many of us are getting duped by wolves in sheep's clothing
Be aware that some radio talk-show hosts and cable news networks are commentaries disguised as news
we develop relationships with people based on their
Reliability and truth-telling track record the first time we hear that someone has been less than reliable
We double check the next time to make sure there is no mistake in our interpretation of their message
But if someone has been known to intentionally lie, it usually takes a long time if ever for us to regain trust in that person
So, how is it that we allow a double-standard to exist for politicians, how is it that Donald Trump can repeatedly lie about big things
But people still give him their trust. I mean, it's not just because he's the president of the United States
there's a 25th amendment that members of his cabinet or Congress could invoke if we their
Constituents had lost our confidence in the president and the Constitution has already established a line of successors
At least the first view of which our Republican in this case
Should the president leave office for any reason?
Could it be that we look past Trump's faults? Because we need him to stay in office for reasons
We consider more important than his integrity
Or maybe we think Trump is actually innocent and instead the victim of the wild lies of the Moller
Investigation the Justice Department and the so called fake media
Maybe we think that all concurrent politicians lie
So we could no longer use that as a measuring stick and must decide now on whose story is most believable or the most advantageous
After all trump is not only the president but he is the current leader of a major political party in the balance
Maybe you are like so many people I know who are completely
Frustrated with Washington politics right now and have decided to stop paying attention. If only it were that simple
We could just turn off Trump with our remote controls and he would go away
But as registered voters
It's our responsibility to make educated choices and do our duty in the polling booths
This November voting this hugely important. Don't let anyone else
anyone tell you otherwise you should be aware that the Moller investigation has accused the
2016 Trump campaign of intercepting
confidential strategy data from Hillary Clinton's campaign
through the help of Russian hackers
Trump is accused of using this data in the last few weeks before
The election to actually discourage would-be Clinton voters from making it to the polling booths
He utilized targeted social media efforts to tell people their votes didn't matter that Clinton would win anyway
And that she didn't need their vote
was that targeted social media effort in itself illegal
Probably not even if it should be but you can probably guess that
utilizing data that was hacked by the Russians in an American election is definitely illegal and
You can bet that Moeller has extensive evidence to back up his claims
Does that change the fact that Trump won the election No, will it ever?
Know the Electoral College assures us of that
Many members of Congress are taking the stance that we should wait for the Muller team to take its course and
Act when his team produces a report with its recommendations
Of course Muller is not the only one who is investigating Trump and his associates now
The pardon proof state of New York has issued lawsuits of its own that could ultimately bring Trump and others nice
More than ever we need to pay attention to what's happening in Washington as
It's going to take all of the established checks and balances including voters to make sure we are able to maintain the freedoms. We enjoy
that may sound alarmist, but I honestly believe our current president has some
Malevolent intentions of using his presidential powers to get richer and more powerful
At the expense of hurting American taxpayers the economy and anything else he can use as fodder. Oh,
But Trump claims that the economy is doing so well as a result of his brilliant nests
Just wait Trump will not have to get impeached for us to experience economic troubles at this point
We are already seeing signs of an economic downturn
Dairy farms being sold in the Midwest and factories closing on the eastern seaboard
Which are the direct result of Trump's tariffs and the retaliatory tariffs put on us in response
while aligning himself with Vladimir Putin of Russia and kim jeong-hoon of North Korea Trump has purposely
Alienated the leaders of Canada France Germany the United Kingdom
Not to mention the leaders of bleep whole countries like Haiti El Salvador or any of the 54 countries in Africa
but she wouldn't know any of that if you weren't watching the news is
to Trump's advantage that his constituents aren't looking when say
Cohen pleads guilty of crimes closely associated to Trump
Manafort gets convicted by a jury or the latest
the CFO of the Trump Organization has given immunity in exchange for his truthful testimony and
Fox News which some are calling state TV these days is
Careful to offer alternative programming during such events or give negative
Commentary in an attempt to discredit the accurate reporting from the so called fake news. I
Hate to burst your bubble
but I believe that Trump is not like a smart person as he claims to be an
evidence from multiple bankruptcies suggests
He is not a smart businessman, but I believe he is a fabulous marketer
Although he started his career in real estate the bulk of his business has been related to marketing
Trump University, how did he convince all these students that his degree program would prepare them for getting good jobs?
he has marketing skills for
Example he doesn't necessarily own the buildings that have his name on them
he just sells the marketing rights to companies that own glamorous high-rises casinos and vacation destination hotels is
True look it up. It has been Trump's business to convince everyone that he and his family are filthy
rich and in the aftermath of the Moller
Investigation Trump will put Bernie Madoff to shame when Trump is revealed as the biggest con artist the world has ever seen
One of trumps tried-and-true marketing tactics is excessive repetition of phrases to invoke almost a Pavlov like response
when Trump says witch-hunt do you automatically dismiss Muller the FBI the CIA and the entire Justice Department is having
nefarious intentions
When you hear no collusion, do you automatically think he's innocent?
Have you started associating in fake news as?
What Rush Limbaugh coin is a liberal media?
Another tactic is deflection
Trump uses this every day. I think his entire beef with LeBron James
Maxine Waters and NFL players kneeling for the national anthem
Was created to swamp the media with something other than the news Trump didn't want us to focus on that day. I
Think I'm making this up just see what Trump's response is the next time something big happens in the Moller
investigation
Like on Friday all of the sudden Trump tweets something that will compromise
Secretary Pompeii owes trip to North Korea and the trip is canceled as a result
This secretary Pompeo even have a scheduled trip to North Korea
perhaps the scariest tactic of all that Trump employs is called gaslighting which is sort of
the encompass 'men of all techniques I have mentioned the term comes from the
1938 British stage play by the same name that is known as in the US as angel Street
We're a husband psychologically abuses his wife over time by manipulating small elements of their environment
And insisting that she remembers things incorrectly with with the intent of getting her to question her sanity
And not trust her logic or instincts
Do you believe Trump's rhetoric that being educated is bad and fills your mind with foolishness?
Do you actually believe that the so-called lamestream media is?
Actually making all this stuff up about Trump to do so
They would have to coordinate with each other in the three seconds before releasing the next breaking news. Just
In the effort of making the president look bad
How is that even possible?
When he and Giuliani can't even get their story straight
About how much and when Trump knew about the hush money payments a stormy Daniels. I
Will tell you that I am like a smart person too and so are many of my listeners
I can see through Trump's propaganda techniques when we learned Trump has lied about one thing
it usually means that he has lied about another I
Can also tell he is full of crap about something when he degrades women or he uses a white
Supremacist language such as saying that a respectable member of Congress has a low IQ
Or referring to immigrants and minorities as subhuman animals
horrific
my advice
trust your instincts apply the same principles of integrity to Trump that you would require of your accountant or family physician and
Remember that this country was founded on principles of liberty and justice for all
Each of us in this country has a different view of our ideal utopia, but we forget that as Americans we are in this together
When we try to protect the rights of others, we are in essence protecting our own rights
After all, the United States is a constitutional republic which means that we protect the minority
Did you know that?
article 6 of the Constitution states
Quote political decisions shall stem from the well will of the majority
expressed by means of a free vote
The majority's decisions must heed the protection of the minorities and quote
to make our country work both the majority rule and the minority rights must be safeguarded as
You can see there is a lot to talk about right now and I have much to say
Look for more podcast soon that will break down many of the topics. I have discussed today and that welcome your feedback
The things that we have been taking for granted for decades just maybe shifting now is the time to pay attention to national
Politics so that we may continue to have liberty and justice for all

How To Make A Basic 2D Platformer In Unity For Beginners Part 1 - Duration: 9:21.
in this series I'm going to show you how to make a game that you are seeing right now
now on your screens so stay tuned if you want to know how to make it
hey guys sirgenictech here today with another video in today's video I'm gonna be
teaching you guys how to make a basic platformer in unity 3d slash 2d so guys
in today's video I'm gonna be showing you how to set up unity get a project
going and actually making the map so guys let's get right into today's video
okay guys so first of all you want to head to Unity's website and once you're
here you just go up to get unity so we click on that once that loads then
you can click on the personal button you can buy one of these if you want to but
it's quite a bit money a month for me the cheapest ones about 25 pound a month so
that's quite expensive but be fair I always just use the person audition so
you need just click on try personal you know agree terms read them if you want
to I recommend to read them and then download in store for Windows your food
installer it's very simple guys I recommend down on the unity hub because
then you get something then you get like a nice little actual hub way you can get
templates so that is really nice to have anyway once you downloaded that we
want to actually openup the unity hub slash unity hub so on
unity got some tutorials here from unity themselves like how to move
our make stuff you've got to deke its freedom kits you've got space shoot oh
you got all sorts here guys even though some resources like vehicle tools 360 so
property VR and also links to some websites slash areas to learn these links
are handy I use he's quite there so anyway once you've uh installed this
unity hub you need to actually go and click on it's just say something like
install unity you click on that I don't have it all let me here
don't it will so yeah should say something like something like that oh if
you say something like this actually so yeah then you click on what version you
want I recommend getting the latest one because that's the one we're gonna be
programming in and working in so I recommend that
and anyway once you get to this and all your unity installed you simply click
on new and this is your project so you've got all different ones here and
see what's a few templates I am gonna do today cuz we're making a 2d platformer
and let's call this to 2d flatformer like this and you can locate you can put the
source files wherever you want I'm gonna change up to my game dev folder like
this and we're going to keep it in that folder there and I'm gonna turn off that
once you don't nest you just simply click on create project and what this
will do now this will start opening up unity and getting your unity well your
unity engine ready Unity's of very good engines to start
learning because unity it programs into c-sharp it's a very very handy engine to
have what's that I've programmed most of my games in this and made my games in
there so I recommend them and when you're unity actually opens like this
then you're ready and well you ready you know get on with it
probably a bit differently per to yours the reason is because this is how I like
to make my games I like to have my folders down here I like on the console
there's any errors and then my hierarchy here so all you do is go up to here and
press asset store and this will take you simply to the unity asset store you can
buy a lot of content here for your games and this does save a lot of time when
you're making game especially if you're on your own so what you want to do is go
up here and type in 2d and it should hopefully pop up and then your want to click on free only
because we're not gonna spend any money then in what you want to do is
go to page 4 scroll down until you see sunny land
this is amazing textures so this is the textures you get with it it looks
awesome looks amazing so we're gonna be working
this why do you do do not take these textures and say they're your own
because the maker of these textures worked very hard for them and don't well
it's just a bad thing to do is to take somebody's outs work and put into your
game and say it's yours so you know if you're gonna publish a game of these
textures make sure you get in contact with the owner of these textures make
sure you get permission and make sure you put him in your game but if its for
personal use like ah how I make my games I make mine for personal use then you're
alright to use these without credit so we want to do is click on download and
then you read through all this if you want to or you can just hit accept once
that's done you can see it's gonna start importing it to your unity so what you
do is wait for that to finish then select this ship pop up and then you can
see all the textures and that and you can uncheck these if you want to but
it's best to keep them all if you want them all and you just simply click on
import once that's done it's gonna start writing all those files to your to your
project folders down here so you can see another file pop up in a minute and then
so then we can get on the game so you can see now it's finished so you can see in here
I've opened it up we've got scene so if they'll actually came with its own scene
which shows off all the textures which is very nice and some animations which you that you
can see there and I'm gonna show you how to actually animate these later on in a
few episodes so let's actually now go and open up our
own scenes go to file and click on new scene this will give us a fresh scene
where you build your level and if I just pull this across one my second from monitor
this is what the game looks like for a minute so it doesn't look that good so
let's actually now get some ah let's get some other textures on you so with these
textures you can use a tile base so tilebase is where it's a little bit
like Minecraft so you can put down blocks I'll show you that now so if we
go to this one game objects 2d tile map we click on that and
now we've got a tile map so what we so what you
once you've got your tilemap this is simply go up to window go down to 2d and
click on the title palettes this will open up something like this
now you always won't actually open up like this cuz I've already got mine
loaded so what we do will gonna create a new palette and call this 2d textures
ground put whatever it doesn't matter what up on the name it's just somewhere
you can simply just we're gonna click create and then we're gonna select a
folder words are gonna put it in our assets folder and then now we can drag
and drop a sprite slash tech Tania so you won't go down Sunnyland artwork
environment and then hey you are now you want to go on drag this title set sliced
because this is actually sliced into cubes for us so we can actually start
making our games when we drag and drop that into that and then we will simply
against it and we're gonna overwrite our textures and now you guys you're going
to let that import into the tile palette and now guys once is import you should
get something like this so now you can literally just click on whatever cube
you want let's get a grass block and now you can simply walk but you can see that
the textures are really small and if we actually gone look in our game it will
it look in-game you can see they look small so what we need to do is actually
scale these things up so yeah all you do is simply go over here and you see this
number you make it smaller so let's make this 50 and apply that and let's see how
so it's getting better so let's go down to 20 and apply that and then
let's do 15 and I think then will be perfect there there we are
now we're perfect so now when we place them they will actually all add up like
that and look good and now let's actually grab a pallet again and let's
go and get some dirt and just simply drag it so long to draw the textures and
now you can see we've kind of already got a simple level
When the player stands on the ground he gonna fall throught it
simple you create an empty let's just call this
ground col or ground Collider and then we simply add a 2d box Collider once we
do that we can simply move this across lined up so your place gonna be stand on
it then we go over here and click Edit Collider and then we drag that across
and down and now you play will be able to stand on this ground
so what Collider does it stops player for falling throught so right now these
are just textures but now we added a Collider on the i am gunna add it to grid set
more neater and now you'll player will be able to walk on those sprites so in the next
video guys we're gonna be making the player code in this movement and also
animating him so you can actually see him walk because enjoyed today's video

Logan Paul & KSI's Boxing Match Ends In Draw After 6 Rounds & Fans Are Pissed - Duration: 4:08.
KSI & Logan Paul squared off inside the middle of a boxing ring resulting in a draw! Read all the furious fan reactions here! After six months (which is an eternity online) KSI, 25, and Logan Paul, 23, left YouTube behind, as these two Internet celebrities stepped in the ring inside of Manchester Arena
After trading barbs and diss tracks, the two actually traded punches in their highly anticipated Aug
25 fight. Logan started off the first few rounds, while KSI finished strong. As a result, the two literally tied as the match turned out to be a draw
Anti-climactic? You bet. One person tweeted, "Serious questions about that being rigged #KSIvLogan
" Another wrote, "#KSIvLogan #WTAF a draw!!! Rematch." Another Twitter user lamented, "I've wasted 3 hours for it to be a majority draw #KSIvLogan
" So, there you have it. That was a fight more than half-a-year in the making
It will go down in history as less of a boxing match and more of a questionable money-making stunt straight out of the twisted fever dreams of WWE's Vince McMahon
The seeds of the fight were first planted when Logan became the most hated man on YouTube after his notorious vlog from Japan's Aokiaghara Forest, which featured footage of a dead man's body
Shortly after, KSI fought fellow YouTube creator, Joe Weller, in a match that got 20 million views, according to Polygon
After winning, KSI challenged Logan and Jake Paul to a fight. At first, the Pauls declined (and suggested KSI fight their dad instead), but over a month after the initial challenge, a lot of drama went down: Deji, KSI's younger brother, called out Jake Paul; Jake met Deji at a local park with boxing gloves and insults; and KSI confronted Logan at a gym
On March 18, the fight was made official. What followed after that was months of insults that only hyped up the fight, leading to a pair of diss tracks (one from KSI, the other from Logan) being released in the final two weeks ahead of the scheduled bout
If KSI vs. Logan wasn't enough, the undercard featured Jake taking on Deji, just to make it a total family versus family feud
Jake ended up winning that bout! KSI obviously won, it wasn't even close to a draw#KSIvLogan — LimegreenHunk 24 (@Limegreenhulk24) August 25, 2018 No matter whose hand was raised at the end of this fight or how long the match would go, both KSI and Logan were going to walk away as winners
The revenue from all the YouTube videos leading up to this fight, plus the $10 fee to watch it, meant that these men were set to make millions off their followers (and those whose morbid curiosity led them to shell out the ten bucks to watch this circus
) The question now is – will there be a rematch? More importantly — is this really the end, or is actually just the beginning of the shade, diss tracks and trash talk between these four?

Terrible Tomes Book Tag [CC] - Duration: 12:39.
Hello everybody, my name is Cara, and today I am here with the Terrible Tomes Book Tag.
This tag was created by A Bookish Balance and I was tagged by the fabulous Olivia from
ReadbyLiv and I will link both of their channels down below. You guys know I love my rants
and unpopular opinions, so I'm pretty excited about this one. #1: Can't. Even. Name a book
you DNFed after a chapter or less. And one I remember doing that with was My Life Next
Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick. Now I can't even really tell you why I DNFed this one. It wasn't
like horribly written or anything but I remember I decided I was finally gonna pick it up because
it was a pretty hyped book I think at that point, and I don't know if I just wasn't in
the mood for it or what but I read like a page and a half, and I was like "No. I don't
want to read this." For whatever reason I was just not havin' it that day. #2: Get out
of my book. Name a main character you absolutely cannot stand. I'm gonna go with one I haven't
complained about before and that is the main character from The Mad Scientist's Daughter
by Cassandra Rose Clarke, I think that was who wrote it. I hated this girl[/woman.] I
can't even remember her name, I wanna say it was like...Cassie??? Maybe? Anyway, she
was fine at the beginning of the book when we see her when she's younger. Like I thought
she was really interesting and she had a lot of potential, and then she just goes on to
become the most frustrating human being ever. And this is kind of a--this is a science fiction
book, and the thing that I just cannot overlook for her is the fact that she has sex with
this like android kind of person? I don't know what you would call him. She has sex
with him before she knows if he is even capable of giving consent or not. Like she knows,
like she thinks of him as like a person, but she also knows that it's possible for his
programming to override what he actually wants, so like if she tells him to have sex with
her, like he has to do it. She's like thinking that's a possibility and she doesn't do anything
about it. And that just like really pissed me off. I mean, she rapes him. Right? Like
she doesn't--like she knows there's a possibility that he's incapable of giving consent at this
point and she just has sex with him anyway. #3: Angst, angst, angst. Name a book with
a suffocating amount of angst. And I'm going with Dreams of Gods and Monsters by Laini
Taylor. Now I actually really enjoyed this trilogy overall, like I still recommend it,
but this book in particular I just was so over the main relationship. Like the romantic
drama and how they would almost be together and then something would come up and like
it just--there were so many setbacks that it got to the point where I just like didn't
even care if they ended up together anymore. And that was like a huge chunk of this book,
and I was just so much more invested in the side characters and like side relationships
and just like...oh my God. The drama! The drama. Like their burning eyes meeting across
the room and I'm just like "we've done this already." #4: Once upon a time. The End. Name
a very poorly written book. I'm going with Traveler by L. E. Delano. I read this one
a while ago and I just--really did not connect with this writing style. Like it was really
like clunky and also boring and it just--it just didn't work for me. And it was especially
unfortunate because the main character is like an aspiring author and writer--and I
don't remember...I think it was first person. I know for a fact that there were chunks of
her writing in the book and those were also not very good really. I'm somebody who can
definitely get behind like a serviceable kind of writing style, I don't need lots of bells
and whistles all the time, but that book was just not good. #5: Frustrating? Bland? Unremarkable?
Name a book whose characters took away from your reading enjoyment. Going with a recent
read and that is Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford. I talked about this
in my most recent wrap up, which I will link down below, but--*heavy sigh* oh man. I really
did not like this book. I thought the concept and like the historical context was so interesting
and so important and it--it was such an important story to tell, but I feel like that was hindered
by the fact that none of the characters had any dimension whatsoever. Like I talked about
in my wrap up how I could not tell you a single thing about any of the characters after finishing
this book like, I didn't even know what the main character looked like. Like I didn't
know any personality traits, even like surface-level ones, I just. I couldn't tell you anything
about them. And I think that when you have a story that's so emotional and so like devastating,
you know about like such an awful period in history, if your characters are really like
underdeveloped and bland, it's not going to have the same impact as a story would that
did have like fully developed characters. #6: Have I read you before? Name a book that
lacks originality. Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes. I read this book a couple of years
ago because I gave in to the hype and I just really didn't like it. Fantasy is such an
amazingly creative genre, like there's so much scope there for doing different things
and I feel like the author did nothing different at all. Like the characters were so like cookie-cutter
like, they were all just like very generic like archetypes, and the worldbuilding was
so lazy. It was just like, 3 kingdoms. And they're slightly different. And then they
fight. Like that was it, and I just--I don't know, I've heard that the later books get
a lot better but I just really did not enjoy anything about that one so I'm not really
willing to continue when I gave the first book 1 star. #7: Look what you made me do.
(Does anyone else thing of the Taylor Swift song when they hear that? Is that just me?)
Name the most useless antagonist ever. I'm going with the assassin character from The
Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson. Because he has to be the absolute worst assassin in
the history of literature, and I'm including the Throne of Glass series in that comment
by the way, because he meets the princess that he's supposed to murder, and he like
instantly falls in love with her. It's definitely possible for me to be on board with that kind
of like relationship trope that starts out with that dynamic, but this was just not done
well. It just made him sound like *laughs* the worst assassin to ever be hired. Like
this guy's supposed to be a professional and he like sees a pretty girl, and he's like
"*shrug noise.*" #8: What were we talking about again? Name a book you read recently
that you can't remember anything about. For me that's Instead of Three Wishes: um, Magical
Short Stories by Megan Whalen Turner. Now I love, absolutely love her Queen's Thief
series, but this story collection just did not leave an impression on me. I do slightly
remember things about like my 2 favorite stories, and my like least favorite stories, like I
remember some things about them but I just like--I don't know, I don't know how many
of these stories I could even name or like summarize at this point and I only read this
like a month or so ago. #9: You can do better than this. Name the worst significant other
or worst couple. So one of my least favorite um love interests of all time has got to be
Marek from...what was it, The Hollow Kingdom by Clare B. Dunkle. I actually did a whole
rant review *laughs* and like discussion on that book, so I will link that down below.
But basically he is sexist, abusive, um...condescending. Like he's just--he's awful, and we're supposed
to find him charming. And it just like--the whole book just reads like Stockholm Syndrome
instead of like a hate-to-love kind of relationship. It's just super uncomfortable and I hated
every minute of it. #10: I'm going to pretend that didn't happen. Name the worst character
death you've ever read. Maybe a character you liked died a horrible death and they didn't
deserve it, or maybe a horrible character died and the way they went was unsatisfying.
I'm going with every single character death in Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo. That's
another one where I have a full like discussion on that series so I will also put that link
in the description, but...yeah. I just *laughs* some of those deaths made me really angry.
I'm not gonna give away who it was because of you know spoiler reasons, but there was
a secondary/side character who I really liked and who I thought we had kind of gotten to
the point where they were becoming a member of the like supporting cast and...they were
just kind of written off [killed] in like half a sentence, and that really pissed me
off. As well as some of the lazy ways that character deaths were used earlier in the
book like...I just--everything about those character deaths still pisses me off. #11:
Open? Rushed? Doesn't even make sense? Name an unforgettably horrid ending. My answer
is from A Company of Swans by Eva Ibbotson. Now I've talked before about how much I adore
her middle grade or like younger books; I have not read an adult novel by Eva Ibbotson
that I have liked yet, and I've read is it 2 or 3 at this point? But in A Company of
Swans--I'm going to full-on spoil this for you guys so if you really want to read it
then skip this part. But basically what happens is the main character who is an incredibly
talented ballet dancer and she gets all these opportunities and it's wonderful and then
of course a romance--and of course the guy is like a womanizer who now is like falling
in love for the first time, which...I hate that. So there's all these like stupid coincidences
that happen, and basically she thinks that he doesn't love her anymore or something and
like she gets sent back to her home in England. And her family's like abusive to her, they
like lock her up in her uh--in an attic, and they like refuse to feed her, and she's like
slowly dying, basically! and like she just barely gets out because of another series
I think of dumb coincidences if I'm remembering correctly, where her boyfriend, like this
guy (who's much older than her), finds out where she is and he like rescues her and blah
blah blah. So all of that happens and I'm already irritated and then we get like a flash-forward
and this--this girl who is so incredibly talented, and who like--dancing meant so much to her,
like ballet was how she escaped from her horrible like family and her home life and all of this.
We flash-forward and she has given all of that up...to have this man's babies, basically.
And I just like...I was so furious when I finished that book because like it's totally
possible for people to change their minds about things like that. And you can do that
in books too, but you have to make it believable. Like you have to make the reader feel like,
"okay this is what the character wants now." Instead it was like oh she gave up all of
her dreams so she could get knocked up by this older man. And it's like we're supposed
to believe that it's gonna be like a slightly happier ending because now one of her daughters
is like--it's implied that she's gonna go on and try to be the like ballet dancer that
her mother wanted to be. And I'm like "you know what you could've done it too! you could've
done it too." And I just...I'm getting so mad just like talking about this book and
it's been so many years since I read it. I didn't think I had all this anger still in
me but. I did. *short, intense stare at camera* And finally, #12 is Can I throw you at a wall
now? Name a book that infuriated you. I'm gonna go with Bitter Greens by Kate Forsyth
(For-sythe?) So. *heavy sigh* This is a fairytale retelling of Rapunzel but there's a lot of
other like story elements as well. What made me so angry about this book was the way that
sexual assault was used for every single main female character. Every single main character,
'cause I think they were all women. All of them were motivated or like their backstory
or their like villain origin story or whatever, all of it came back to getting raped. And
I hate that. I hate that trope when it is used as like the defining feature of a character's
backstory, especially when it's a woman, or when it's used as like--as like a shortcut
for making them...I don't even know what the authors like think that does! If it makes
them like more interesting or more like tragic or whatever, but it's just like--it's so lazy
and it's so disgusting. I can tell you like every single...I think there were 3 or 4 different
female [main] characters: ALL of them like this graphic, at least one, graphic sexual
assault scene that was like the defining point of their character. And actually, one of the
characters, her mother was also horribly raped and the little girl was like under the bed
as like man after man raped her [the mother] and beat her and abused her and just was like--like--just
disgusting things and like her mother ended up dying later from all of her injuries [from
the rape] and it was just like the most graphically, unnecessarily like violent and gory and just
like--I don't understand why any of it happened. It was what I think of as like tragedy porn,
because there was no reason for all of this to happen. And you know if you're writing
your story at a certain period of time, yes, those things happen, but to use them to such
an extent makes it sound like you don't know how to write if you don't use violence against
women. And I don't think that's okay. And I've heard like really amazing things about
some of Kate Forsyth's other novels and I don't know if I'm gonna pick one up because
if she does this again, I just--I don't think I could handle it. Okay everybody, so that
was the Terrible Tomes Book Tag. I hope you enjoyed hearing me rant *laughs* about some
books that really make me angry, I know I feel a little bit lighter now. I'm going to
tag Yvette form BookCave and Hana from Linh Hermione, I might tag a few other people in
the description as well so be sure to check that. And of course I also tag anyone else
who sees this video and who wants to do it, feel free to say I tagged you...in fact, I
am gonna tag you because I love watching this tag, and um...yeah, I'd love to see some of
*laughs* people's books that make them mad! Thank you guys so much for watching, I will
see you soon with another video, and I hope you love the next book you read. Bye!

El Papa, ante la zarza ardiente de los abusos - Duration: 10:45.
2 comentariosVer comentarios En la procatedral de Dublín hay una lámpara ardiente en memoria de las víctimas de los abusos sexuales del clero irlandés
Ante ella, se recogió el Papa Francisco, con el corazón dolorido por esa plaga que aflige a la Iglesia
Avergonzado por esa sombra alargada, que persigue al Papa de Roma allá donde va. Y eso que es el Papa de la 'tolerancia cero real'
Ante la zarza ardiente del Sinaí se arrodilló Moisés, esperando los mandamientos de Dios
Cual nuevo Moisés, Francisco sabe que la lámpara ardiente de los abusos, que ya ha consumido la inocencia de tantos inocentes, puede acabar con su pontificado y, sobre todo, con la credibilidad de la institución que preside en la caridad
El incendio de los abusos tiene, hasta ahora, tres focos principales: Estados Unidos, Chile y, precisamente, la Irlanda, que ahora visita Francisco, para presidir el Encuentro Mundial de la Familia
El Papa sabe que su principal reto será convencer a las familias irlandesas y, por extensión, a las familias de todo el mundo, de que, a pesar de la plaga de los abusos, la Iglesia sigue siendo una institución en la que las familias pueden confiar
Una institución segura para sus hijos. Examen de conciencia, dolor de los pecados, propósito de la enmienda, decir los pecados al confesor y cumplir la penitencia
Son los cinco requisitos para una buena confesión. El Papa Francisco volvió a entonar un solemne y público 'mea culpa' por los clérigos abusadores y los obispos encubridores de los "crímenes repugnantes" de la plaga de la pederastia
Pero las peticiones de perdón, aunque sean sentidas y obligadas, como en este caso, no son suficientes
Hay que pasar a los hechos. Hay que cumplir la penitencia. Francisco sabe que la gente espera respuestas concretas
Eso significa, en primer lugar, acercarse de verdad a las víctimas. Para escucharlas, acogerlas y, sobre todo, resarcirlas de su dolor y de sus heridas
Con protección real y ayuda psicológica, evidentemente pagada por la institución
Y con todo tipo de ayudas que necesiten, especialmente las materiales. Que a esas vidas destruidas no les falte lo necesario para vivir y puedan salir adelante lo más dignamente posible
Y si eso significa que la institución tiene que arruinarse, que se arruine. Y si tiene que vender palacios, iglesias y hasta el propio Vaticano, que lo haga
Vale más la vida de un inocente que todas las riquezas eclesiásticas acumuladas durante tantos siglos
La segunda medida tendría que ser la expulsión ipso facto de todos los obispos encubridores
Porque muchos de ellos ordenaron a esos abusadores y otros los encubrieron y no ejercieron uno de sus papeles primordiales: el de 'inspector'
A la calle, por no ejercer su responsabilidad in vigilando, muchos o casi todos. Porque el cáncer del encubrimiento era sistémico
La punta del iceberg ha aflorado en Estados Unidos, Chile, Irlanda.pero en las iglesias de todos los demás países del mundo se funcionaba de la misma manera
El abuso era considerado un pecadillo, al cura se le cambiaba de parroquia o, en última instancia, se le mandaba a misiones y se le pedía que se arrepintiese y se confesase, para seguir pecando
Y nunca o casi nunca se consideraba el abuso un delito y, por lo tanto, no se remitía a los abusadores a la justicia civil
La situación ideal para los depredadores sexuales, que, revestidos del poder sagrado (la máxima expresión del poder), tenían acceso ilimitado a niños, niñas, mujeres y hombres (según sus apetencias) y, además, sabían que estaban protegidos por la omertá eclesial
En tercer lugar, el Vaticano tendría que pedir perdón y revisar las responsabilidades de altos cargos curiales en la dinámica sistémica del encubrimiento
¿Qué sabía Juan Pablo II de todo esto? ¿Su secretario personal, monseñor Dziwisz, y su Secretario de Estado, cardenal Sodano, le hacían llegar los casos de abusos que, ya entonces, proliferaban en la institución? ¿Por qué el Papa Wojtyla nunca condenó a un depredador sexual como Marcial Maciel y, al contrario, lo bendijo y lo presentó como modelo para la juventud? Depurar responsabilidades en una Curia que rigió los destinos de la Iglesia con mano de hierro hasta la llegada de Francisco al solio pontificio
Es urgente, en cuarto lugar y como dice el propio Francisco, conseguir una "transformación eclesial y social" respecto a este tema
La eclesial, que es la que le corresponde a la institución, pasa por acabar, de una vez por todas, con el clericalismo, la otra gran plaga del catolicismo, que alimenta la dinámica del abuso sexual, de poder y de conciencia
Cristo no quiso una Iglesia clerical, pero es el tipo de Iglesia que se impuso y que sigue vigente
¿Hasta cuándo? ¿Cuándo será real y efectiva la corresponsabilidad de lo laicos? En quinto lugar y como consecuencia de una Iglesia laical y 'pueblo de Dios', habría que revisar todo el andamiaje de la doctrina moral, especialmente de la moral sexual
Reivindicar una sexualidad normalizada y bien entendida es una de las asignaturas pendientes de la institución
Hay que reconocer la importancia de la sexualidad en la vida de las personas y no reprimirla en sus propios cuadros: monjas y curas que, para ser castos, tienen que reprimir sus instintos y poner puertas al mar de la libido
Casi siempre sin éxito alguno y con derivas pecaminosas y delictivas. De ahí que, en sexto lugar y mientras no se cambia el modelo clerical, la Iglesia debería instaurar, desde ya mismo, el celibato opcional para sus sacerdotes
El carisma del voto de castidad que se quede para los religiosos. El carisma celibatario no puede imponerse, para acceder al sacerdocio
El apóstol Pedro estaba casado y el celibato obligatorio es una ley eclesiástica que, así como se impuso, puede derogarse
Y ya tarda. Y, por último, entre las medidas urgentes a tomar por el Papa, ocupa un lugar primordial la inmediata equiparación de la mujer al hombre en la Iglesia
A todos los niveles. Incluso y como es lógico, en el acceso al altar y al sacerdocio
Si el laico es un ciudadano de segunda en la Iglesia, la mujer no llega a ciudadana de tercera
Sólo así, con estos siete requisitos (y quizás alguno más) se pueden cumplir las cinco condiciones de una buena confesión, especialmente la última: cumplir realmente la penitencia del tsunami de los abusos sexuales, de poder y de conciencia
Francisco sabe que es hora de pasar de los mea culpa a los hechos y cambiar el sistema teológico-organizativo eclesial que, hasta ahora, se basa casi exclusivamente en el clero, para pasar a centrarse en el laicado, en el santo pueblo de Dios
¿Lo conseguirá el Papa de la primavera o se consumirá en la zarza ardiente? ------------ José Manuel Vidal es director de Religión Digital
