We will be ruled by the non-Christian right, 2.
Polona Jamnik in her letter (Diary8 June 2026) notes that for our right wing, Christianity is only a political prop.
If we look at history, we see that those who ruled (ecclesiastical or secular rulers) always used religion as a tool to help rule or to consolidate their power, and many times also as an excuse for wars. In short, religion served the rulers, but they did not serve it. The behavior of American President Trump also confirms this: when they started writing about the affair in which he is involved, he came on stage with a Bible in his hand, and when he chased away the peaceful protesters with military force, he took a picture with the Bible in front of the Episcopal Church.
Those who do not recognize women’s right to abortion or the incurable to death without suffering invoke religion, but when Netanyahu kills women and children in order to expand the territory of Israel, the right to life does not exist for those who “listen to their conscience”?
With faith and from faith, you live beautifully – from time to time you take from it what suits you, what you need, but you always believe that you are a diligent believer and that you work according to your conscience. Let’s not forget the institute of “remission of sins” that helps in this.
