From “lèse-majesté” to “lèse-minorities”

/

“In the past, the crime of lèse-majesté protected the sovereign by criminalizing any criticism or insult directed at him, in the name of order and the sacred respect for authority. Today, certain laws against hate speech, while legitimate in their intent to protect minorities, risk creating a form of ‘lèse-minorities’: a gradual criminalization of opinions or beliefs that, without inciting violence, deviate from dominant norms or offend the sensibilities of identifiable groups.

Truth & Politic …

/

“What if truth finally became a mandatory requirement in politics?”

In the midst of an election campaign, as promises fly thick and fast and lies pile up, Wales is daring to launch a revolution: banning elected officials from lying, under penalty of expulsion.

When the desire for “peace” becomes complicity

/

To turn a blind eye to injustice is to become an accomplice. To bless peace without justice is to betray the Gospel. As the theologian Karl Barth wrote: “To preach the Gospel is also to denounce what is contrary to it.”

May we, as disciples of Christ, have the courage to say no to cowardice, no to compromise, no to that peace which is only an illusion. True peace, the kind that honors God, cannot be decreed from the halls of power. It is built, day by day, through uncompromising respect for human dignity, through the relentless pursuit of justice, and through unwavering commitment to those who fight for their freedom.
