Be Not Afraid of Goodness

charm hearing some duologue by Cardinal Mario Bergoglio during the previous workweek of the pontiffs election, it was mention the word coprophilia as a mutual reaction by concourse in front of certain culture. This was an practice made to LaStampa. it, an Italian Online Newspaper, nearly the sensationalist journalism that often publishes scandals some the Catholic Church (qtd. in Tornielli n. pag. ). He explained that this kind of journalism is a result of a distressedness c every last(predicate)ed coprophilia, something that most of journalists are in danger to get and by them, multitude in danger to commit coprophagy, a common sin that marks all women and men (qtd. n Tornielli n. pag. ). by and by a week, this Cardinal was elected as the in the altogether pontiff of the Catholic Church. In the moment I heard astir(predicate) him, I run to find those words nitty-gritty. I discovered that Merriam-Webster Online defines coprophilia as tag interest in excrement (n. p ag. ) and coprophagy as eating of ordure that is normal behavior among many animals (n. pag. ). Therefore, I started to think about the meaning of those words in context of Cardinal Bergoglios answer, now blessed Father pontiff Francis.What did he mean about flock sick of coprophilia and committing coprophagy when we talk about the scandals of the Catholic Church? Fortunately, the bomb of tidings about the new Popes election and peoples perceptions and comments about him as man and Catholic leader answered my questions. He meant that coprophilia is the peoples tendency and journalists, as main source of information to matter for the worst part of something in a morbid way, placing the good away that makes people receptors to commit coprophagy by devour that negative perspective. erstwhile the Holy Father Pope Francis gave his first words to his people, most of Catholics accomplished that he was a very humble man who just asks us to pray for him and for each other. In hi s Homily for inaugural Mass of Petrine Minis fork up, he mentioned some(prenominal) important facts directed to not just Catholics, but too to all the Governors who were present on that point in Saint Peter Square, Vatican. He said, Let us never forget that authentic power is serve well, and that the Pope too, when exercising power, must enter ever more fully into that service which has its radiant culmination on the Cross Holy Father Pope Francis n. pag. ). Also he explained, We must not be afraid of goodness, of regard because tenderness is not the virtue of the weak but rather a sign of strength of spirit and a capacity for concern, for compassion, for genuine nudity to others, for love (n. pag. ). Those words opened mine mind and heart deep I could not believe that simple words standardised his could give the axe me so much. I felt very happy and inspired by him and wanted to find more information about him and his previous talks and writings as Cardinal.Nevertheless, t hose nice feelings were shocked by horrible information about him just typing his name on Google. There were several news about him as a participant priest of the Argentinean monocracy during 1976-1983, as well as accusations of misogynistic activity because of some things he supposedly said about womens incapacities in a conference. Not scatty to trust that information, I started to ask people. Sadly, I found most of them with the cognition about the unfounded internet accusations, but not about what he has said about service and tenderness.It was then that I comprehended profoundly how people, journalists as the first source of communication, have an excessive interest on the sneaking(a) or bad aspects of any news and deny people the very good information they can get, as the whole transport I received upon initially reading the Popes words. After searching on Google and asking people, I started to dig a subaltern bit on certain reliable information. Fortunately, I found tha t the new Popes supposed participation in the dictatorship were sullen accusations based on vulnerabilitys of him, from his back, giving the communion to General Videla Dictator Argentinean President.The picture showed an old thin man as priest, but that year, he was 26 years old, so he could not be that man. Other sources showed as well that people who were imprisoned because of him declared publicly that he was not involved with dictatorship actions. About misogynistic declarations of women in a conference, a course of instruction of Eternal Word Television Network did a search about that conference of Cardinal Bergoglio talking about womens incapacities and recurred directly to the solely source that was accusing him, and it resulted that they have said that from a Yahoo meeting place commentary made by an atheist person who hated the Catholic Church.That person did not have any fundament for saying that. Sadly, all of this false information was spread quickly and most of pe ople were consuming those arguments easily. All this experience made me grow in the way of evaluating troop information, I discovered that despite the fact something could be really good, like the thoughts of Holy Father Pope Francis that everybody can take advantage of, there will be a dangerous filter which will try to show us the worst part of it.However, that is not because of evil journalists, is because of peoples consumption. In general, people do not care about the true behind information just pay attention to the secret and bad things can be said about something. Therefore, being searing while reading and willing to find the truth, could give us tremendous benefits allowing us to know the best part of everything taking care of our minds and hearts.
