Memory and Identity

The book “Memory and Identity” written by Pope Paul II had been published on February 23. The content is about his view on totalitarianism in the 20th century. He compares the present ‘Legalization of abortion’ to the past political domain of Hitler; the Jews were considered as non-person in the face of law. Therefore it led to condemnation of death to hundreds and thousands of Jewish people.

In this book, Pope looked at ‘abortion ‘ and ‘same sex unions’ as ‘ideology of evil’. It is because people use the name of ‘democracy’ to legalize their immoral behaviour. By doing so, people have already ignored the ‘Law of God’.

Therefore, the reason the Federal Government arbitrarily passed the ‘Change the traditional definition of marriage’ is not sufficient. It is because the stability and peace of people is not only built on ‘freedom’ and ‘equality’ but on the ‘Law of God’.

It is a pity that Paul Martin the prime minister, who considered himself as a fervent Christian, pays no attention to the ‘Law of God’.
