Le Voltairianisme Expliqué

AFP:
«Resolving major logistical headaches in power, water, telecommunications and food supplies will determine the fate of many survivors in the coming weeks, these sources said.
Dysentery, measles, mosquito-borne diseases, dengue, tuberculosis, influenza and other respiratory infections already lurk in Haiti and have ample means to spread among those who are weak or in poor health, living in the street or in cramped rooms.
"There is a whole range of communicable diseases that will almost invariably rise over the coming days and weeks," said Aloudat. "There is a very high likelihood of outbreaks of diarrhoeal diseases. That is a major concern."
Hotham added: "There is always a cholera concern. Port-au-Prince is already a high-risk area for dengue under normal circumstances."
Brigitte Vasset, a physician with the French first-response charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF, Doctors Without Borders) emphasised the need to address longer-term basics after the rush to extricate survivors. "The sooner there is shelter, water and food, the less disease there will be," she said.»

[Que se fôdam as florestas tropicais. Depois vê-se

isso da metafísica.]

«We need something like human ecology, meant in the right way. The Church speaks of "man" or "woman," and asks that this order is respected. This is not out of date metaphysics. It comes from faith in the Creator and from listening to the language of creation, the despising of which would mean the self-destruction of humans, and

therefore

a destruction of God's work itself.
What is often expressed and signified with the word "gender" implies human auto-emancipation from creation and from the Creator. The human being wants to make himself on his own, and to decide always and exclusive by himself about what concerns him. But, in doing so, the human being

lives

against the truth and against the Creator.
Rain forests deserve our protection, and the human being - as a creature which contains a message that is not in contradiction with his freedom, but is the condition of his freedom - does not deserve less.»
