Et-et or either / or?

S. Kierkegaard

Ieri sera l'ineffabile Messori, autore ricco e prolifico, tanto gradito al mondo cattolico da sembrare il portavoce ufficiale della più pura ortodossia, nel corso della trasmissione "L'infedele" di Gad Lerner, ha riproposto (sia pur di sfuggita) la logica dell' "et-et" che, secondo il Nostro, sarebbe addirittura uno dei "segreti" di Dio. 

La visione cristiana (anzi cattolica) del mondo sarebbe tutta fondata sul paradosso dell'unione degli opposti. 

In tal modo giustizia e carità, Dio uno e Trinity, Jesus, true God and true man, the Church and the Mystical Body human institution, visbile and invisible, and freedom obedience Old and New Testament , divine inspiration and drawing human soul and body, and spirit matter, the Virgin Mary and mother, faith and works reason and revelation , light and darkness, certainty and bet sin and redemption , liturgical pomp and personal poverty, virginity and marriage light and darkness , saints and sinners paradise and hell, the poor in spirit poor and tout-court, and contemplation action utopia and realism become oxymorons within which they can safely live without scandal and freedom fear, love of neighbor and its opposite, the light of reason and the darkness of superstition, poverty and wealth ..

So the "Catholic" , according to the neo-prophet Messori, " is called everywhere to make a paradoxical synthesis .

But it seems to me that the Christian, in the light of the gospel, must adopt a different logic, a logic simpler, more compelling and courageous logic, the logic of ' "on ut- aut " that starts from that Gospel and that alone could resolve all the contradictions of which we are still prisoners.

It is no coincidence: after 2000 years, from the day on which the villages of Palestine sounded happy that the word for a moment the darkness of this lower world, we continue to be caught up to his neck in injustice darkest, bloodiest wars in the most inhuman oppression, hatred in the most sinister, in the most savage cruelty.

Paradise without being listed in the afterlife, I think about how it could have been today , on earth, the lives of billions of people if the Christian leaven had acted freely as such during these 20 centuries without a glance and without compromises, without the Council and without forced unification of the ideological categories that have very little Gospel. I think of how today could be the plight of millions of people if he had chosen the straight path of evangelical radicalism, and not the slant of those who want to save at all costs and goat cabbage.

The gospel is or not. And, if a Christian must be shaped by the Gospel, can not disregard the clear and unequivocal message that there is content and that of ' "either-or" ago the figure of those original and distinctive that message would follow to establish here on earth, the kingdom of God Valga, for example, this memorable passage:
"No man can serve two masters: or he will hate the one and love the other; or the one and despise the other can not serve God and mammon. " (Mt 6, 24)
More "on ut aut- " than that!
