BENGALURU: The 34th Biennial Plenary Conference of the All-Catholic Catholic Bishops’ Committee (CBCI) is being held to remind dissenters not to be anti-national. Patriotism is different from the narrow, divisive cultural nationalism. It is in line with constitutional nationalism. The patriotism of an Indian citizen should not be questioned for personal reasons. In a joint statement released by the CBCI at the conclusion of the conference, he said that democracy cannot be built through self-talk.
True patriotism unites us among the different. Patriotism is the linking of race, people and nations and turning citizens’ attention to the good of the entire human family. The nationalist ideology of majority domination perpetuates violence that promotes the insult of their own cultures. It is necessary to make a distinction between patriotism and pseudo-nationalism.
As patriotism builds up the nation, pseudo-nationalism destroys the nation’s integrity, unity, and unity. Hypocrisy, especially in its most radical and extreme forms, is the antithesis of true patriotism. The CBCI said in a statement that it is appealing to the rulers to ensure that pseudo-nationalism does not initiate new forms of totalitarianism.
The Catholic bishops of India have asserted from the framework of the Constitution that religion should not be a criterion for determining Indian citizenship, and the authorities must come up with effective and effective means to eliminate the fear, anxiety, and uncertainty that prevail in the country, especially among religious minorities. The CBCI demanded a conference.
We are proud of our constitution, which envisions a sovereign, egalitarian, secular democratic republic that guarantees justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity. The CBCI urged every citizen to be vigilant against all attempts to weaken the humanitarian outlook of the Constitution to ensure that our beloved country remains united forever.
The talk should not be limited to the born; The right to life of the unborn is also to be taken seriously. From the moment of conception, man should be respected and treated as a person. Every human life has inherent dignity, so it should be treated with respect as a human being from the womb to the tomb. Steps to legalizing abortion for up to six months should be condemned as a gross injustice, which undermines the right to life of the unborn. In a statement, the National Bishop said the bill would be withdrawn immediately in parliament.
