The underlying theme of many phenomena determining the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, at first sight so different and even opposed, it is the attempt to create a society without God in a society self-sufficient which man finds its ultimate expression. If you can build a society on earth, being violently programmatically and without God, it ensures the full expression of human life, proves that man is sufficient unto itself and has no need of God Having replaced by a notion of life staff membership as a concept understood as power, it must be demonstrated that man is self-sufficient. This is possible only by involving men in the construction of a project that definitive claims. The condition for this construction is the elimination of the past, and then the fight that embodies the Church.

The phrase "separation of church and state" is subject to a serious misunderstanding. Until the French Revolution there was no unification of Church and State. There may have been a unification quota, but in terms of design, has always earned the distinction of Pope Gelasius (fifth century) that there are two orders, the religious and the political, the first of which exercises a supremacy of character moral and spiritual (not political).

According to this distinction, the religious dimension of existence, namely freedom of conscience, can not be subject to the state, because it is larger, and the Church, for its part, when it intervenes in the political, he does not make political assessments but to defend a religious and moral life policy questioned.

Even today, in our society, where the authority of the Church is addressed to Catholics to form the conscience is so charged with invasion of the state, survives an absolutist conception that the state ultimately must form consciences .

This conviction falls within the guidelines of thought that seem the most radically different from those common to the fascist, and is, beyond the differences, a unitary element. From this point of view they are essentially different facets of a single phenomenon.

The logic is always the same: the state ends up being not all of the conditions under which the variety of forms of social, cultural and political expression, but a mainstream cultural, ideological and political. [read more]
