Paolo Farinella priest will say the celebration of Christmas Eve in his parish of San Torpe in Genoa ... . (emphasis mine)
(...) Too much rhetoric ago around Christmas, losing sight of the core, without which we do this evening is only the representation of a fairy tale and not the heart overwhelmed and overwhelming mystery of God who became man in order to make easier the chance to meet him and loving him. A home should know and be aware that Child asking to be born ...
- is an immigrant because he is a Palestinian from Nazareth;
- is a emigrated to Egypt, for political and religious persecution since birth;
- is the victim of racist laws and racist policies of expulsion because without a residence permit;
- jew is born, sought to be eliminated;
- because of nationality is Palestinian son of the land;
- is an outlaw because is an illegal immigrant and being sought by police;
- is no good because the son of a single mother, as a teenager;
- and opponents of religious and political dead end and killed;
- is poor by the poor and should be eliminated;
- is a lay believer against atypical;
- is disreputable because frequents prostitutes and lepers;
- is God because his thoughts are not the thoughts of self-righteous (Isaiah 55:8).
May the force be with you!
