    DISCRIMINACION RELIGIOSA EN EL MUNDO

    Informe libertad religiosa 2025

    El derecho a la libertad religiosa corre el riesgo de desaparecer

    El Informe sobre la libertad religiosa en el mundo de 2025 de Ayuda a la Iglesia Necesitada (ACN) confirma que ha habido graves violaciones de la libertad religiosa en 62 países. Estos ataques han sido clasificados como “persecución” en 24 países y como “discriminación” en otros 38, lo que en total afecta a más de 5.400 millones de personas.

    Estos abusos reflejan una mayor amenaza contra la libertad religiosa, consagrada en el artículo 18 de la Declaración Universal de los Derechos Humanos. Hoy, este derecho fundamental no solo está sometido a presión, sino que se enfrenta a un serio riesgo de desaparición.

    ACTIVE AND PASSIVE NIGHTS OF THE SOUL

    “The divinization of one’s passivities.”

    This is a line from one of the great spiritual works of the twentieth century, The Divine Milieu by the French Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. In that seminal text, Teilhard famously distinguished between the divinization of one’s activities and the divinization of one’s passivities. The former is a noble spiritual move, consisting in the handing over of one’s achievements and accomplishments to the purposes of God. A convinced Jesuit, Teilhard desired to devote all that he did (and he did a lot) ad majorem Dei gloriam (to the greater glory of God). But this attitude, Teilhard felt, came nowhere near the spiritual power of divinizing one’s passivities. By this he meant the handing over of one’s suffering to God, the surrendering to the Lord of those things that are done to us, those things over which we have no control. We become sick; a loved one dies suddenly; we lose a job; a much-desired position goes to someone else; we are unfairly criticized; we find ourselves, unexpectedly, in the valley of the shadow of death. These experiences lead some people to despair, but the spiritually alert person should see them as a particularly powerful way to come to union with God. A Christian would readily speak here of participating in the cross of Christ. Indeed how strange that the central icon of the Christian faith is not of some great achievement or activity, but rather of something rather horrible being done to a person. The point is that suffering, offered to God, allows the Lord to work his purpose out with unsurpassed power.

    In some ways, Teilhard’s distinction is an echo of St. John of the Cross’s distinction between the “active” and “passive” nights of the soul. For the great Spanish master, the dark night has nothing to do with psychological depression, but rather with a pruning away of attachments that keep one from complete union with God. This pruning can take a conscious and intentional form (the active night) or it can be something endured. In a word, we can rid ourselves of attachments—or God can do it for us. The latter, St. John thinks, is far more powerful and cleansing than the former.

  • PRAYING FOR THE DEAD

    PRAYER FOR THE DEAD


    Because Onesiphorus had served so well and was no longer alive, Paul prays for God’s blessing on his surviving family. All implications are that Onesiphorus has died. But Paul prays for him! In 2 Timothy 1:18, while in prison awaiting his death, Paul prays for the dead man and it is recorded in the Bible.
