    Spanish bishop legitimates rape

    The Archbishop of Granada, Javier Martinez, said in his Christmas sermon that it was acceptable for women who have had an abortion to be raped.

    Author Manuel António Pin expresses his outrage in the daily Jornal de Notícias: "The Spanish Church won't let anyone dissuade it from its intolerant traditions. ... After [Prime Minister] Mariano Rajoy, who is close to the Church, announced his intention of 'extirpating the putrid secular abortion law' that was passed under Zapatero's government I was given a copy of a Christmas sermon delivered by the Archbishop of Granada in which he says that 'a woman who has an abortion gives a man absolute licence to abuse her body without restrictions because she has committed a sin as if she had a right to do so'. ... For the Archbishop Hitler's and Stalin's crimes (he forgot Franco's) were 'less dreadful than abortion'. In such situations even a non-believer wishes there was a God to condemn these people."

    (Emphasis mine)

    Where does it say what the little RTE boy said it did

    From what I hear the main focus of the objection to the Bishops statements comes from lines like "Eso le da a los varones la licencia absoluta, sin límites, de abusar del cuerpo de la mujer". Essentially what the Bishop is saying is that since the woman has ravaged her own body (by engaging in abortion) that this gives other people license to ravage her body too.

    My own Spanish and Portuguese are both poor so I can add nothing more than this, but this does appear to be the crux of the ire people are directing at it. Hope that helps.

    In terms of random quotes that don't make much sense"... a woman who has an abortion gives a man absolute licence to abuse her body without restrictions because she has committed a sin as if she had a right to do so" ranks up there with "Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?"

    From the OP's link to the original sermon (was the text "Original Sermon" too hard to find?):
    El mundo puede llamarlo estupidez. Yo le llamo valor. Pero matar a un niño indefenso, ¡y que lo haga su propia madre! Eso le da a los varones la licencia absoluta, sin límites, de abusar del cuerpo de la mujer, porque la tragedia se la traga ella, y se la traga como si fuera un derecho: el derecho a vivir toda la vida apesadumbrada por un crimen que siempre deja huellas en la conciencia y para el que ni los médicos ni los psiquiatras ni todas las técnicas conocen el remedio.

    What he says in the context of the paragraph is that the mother killing her own baby is as bad as man abusing her without limits.
    I dont agree with him but thats the context its in

    Hard to say how he would have reacted to this particular issue given his own existence was said to have been predicated on an impregnation that was not invited and likely not entirely consensual. Or at least that is the story she used as a likely cover up for something like "I cheated on you with someone else from the carpenters guild and I got knocked up. I just can not say no to a man with a long piece of wood."

    it doesn't say "as bad as", it says "gives men the license, without limits, to"

    It's a pity you didn't read it first and then post that instead of abusing other posters? You're not exactly giving a good impression of the Catholic Church.

    That is not what he says. "Eso le da a los varones la licencia absoluta...." means "That gives men the absolute licence to...".

    Where in the paragraph I quoted does he use a comparison?

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 34,567 ✭✭✭✭Biggins


    If what the Bishop said is true as some are reading it - its:

    1. Very stupid.
    2. Tries to say that one persons 'wrong' - makes a another persons actions totally right?
    3. Further shows how much little Rome knows about its own people they award in higher and higher organisational status.

    ...And thats just some thoughts of mine to begin with.

    IF true - as someone else rightly pointed out - if anyone said this in any other day/night job, they arse would be fired big time - and rightly so.

    That's it, I'm never watching coronation street again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,897 ✭✭✭MagicSean


    I read it as " A woman who has had an abortion has desecrated her body and made it into a tool of sex as opposed to a tool of procreation."

    Nothing at all to do with non-consensual sex.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,897 ✭✭✭MagicSean


    I could read it as 'I like cake' if I wanted to, that wouldn't make it true though.

    That's similar to what the journalist did.
