What comes forward is a secular lobby cross. From the new right Finian sectors of the PD, up to and through the foundation vendoliani di Montezemolo, is taking shape, with the explosion of the PDL, a composite group of personalities, parliamentarians, opinion leaders decided to enforce individual rights, those of person. Which, translated, means recognition of homosexual and heterosexual unmarried couples, rejection of homophobia equality between men and women, divorce quick approvals, 194 on law enforcement, opening up issues such as artificial insemination and the living will, and then voting rights and citizenship for immigrants, an assertion of religious plurality in the country.

models are France's Sarkozy on positive secularism and Spain Zapateria most decidedly anti-clerical. In short, if the Church has always called Catholics to unite, irrespective of one's party, on ethically sensitive issues, now by secular thinking is on a similar and contrary motion. To give the line was the same leader and the Future of Freedom, Gianfranco Fini, who said a general principle: "Parliament should make laws not guided by the precepts of a religious nature."

other hand, Stefano Rodota, influential leader of the secular left, condemned the recent attempt by Silvio Berlusconi to use in their time tormenting the government crisis, ethical issues with the goal of "endangering the Finian, already critical of the law on fertility and hostile to the proposed living will approved by the Senate, to lure the UDC and create divisions within the Democratic Party. "And yet, even with malice Rodotà explained, the true recipient of the line" pro- life "of the Knight," were the Vatican hierarchy. "

ethical issues. It must be said Fini, who has never pulled back on ethical issues, even at the cost of finding themselves isolated in the PDL as was the case Englaro. "I would have entailed - he said about it - like the family of Eluana", "the will of the person involved and the family is worthy of respect for institutions, is a threshold that must be crossed lightly by the State." Just to see how they weigh these issues, we think that Finian Flavia Perina, editor of the Century, "last summer, describing the relationship of future and freedom with the government, observed:" ethical issues, the living will lay claim to freedom of conscience, but otherwise we will be loyal. " In short, the watershed was just that.

Certainly an important role in the construction of a lay board, we have the radicals, bishops and the secular principles of individual struggles for self-determination - definition hated by the Vatican - in this case is not right and left. So the 9 pannelliani parliamentarians elected in the Democratic Party, three to six in the House and Senate, including Emma Bonino, have seen their weight activism which becomes the protagonist. The same applies to Benedetto Della Vedova, a radical of the first hour, PDL and now deputy head of the "freedom", or the values \u200b\u200bespoused liberal and secular right. So, given the circumstances, not the last attack was random headlong brought against the Speaker of the House - accused of "anti-clericalism" - director of the bishops' newspaper Avvenire, Mark Tarquinio (repeated attack yesterday).

de facto couples. The topic on which there is the broad consensus between left and right is surely the one to give legal recognition to unmarried couples. Here, the deputy Democratic Party Paola Tanning, declared homosexual, and the moderate finiano Silvano Moffa, can meet, and with them line up by many in the Fli Luca Barbareschi with Giulia Bongiorno, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, up to Chiara Moroni, for which is necessary to go "to include in the collection of people who see their rights protected civilians, including unmarried couples. But it must be said, with great sincerity, that the real theme is the same-sex unmarried couples. "To the left are moving in the same direction Barbara Pollastrini author, along with the Rosi Bindi, I said one of the proposals for the regulation of civil unions who have not seen light, and then many of the former Ds. With them, the mayor of Turin Sergio Chiamparino for whom "unmarried couples are no longer a disease, but physiology of our country" and send "a strong signal to the Parliament to resume in hand - and decisively - issues that can not wait any longer. "From words to action: the City of Turin has approved the recognition of the civil rights of gay couples.

Immigration. Then there is the immigration issue, where the Fli has taken positions in sharp contrast to the Northern League and the PDL and in fact much closer to those of the center. So that has led to a proposal signed by Fabio Granata, Fli, and Andrea Sarubbi, the Catholic Democratic Party, to give rapid and certain citizenship rules for immigrants. And speaking of the recent defeat of the parliamentary majority on its own rights issues of refugees, the young director of the website do Futuro, Filippo Rossi, defined in the PDL this way: "They will become a xenophobic party, the extreme right. At that point will be written by themselves, an end to a great dream that turned into a nightmare. "

Catholic laity. On the left, instead, a case is that of Nichi Vendola, the rising leader of the Italian left. Vendola is an openly gay has always been, a Catholic training, he grew up in the school of the renowned Bishop Don Tonino Bello Pugliese, a former president of Pax Christi, engaged on issues of peace and social justice. Today the President of the Puglia says that we must do away with certain anti-clericalism, but on civil rights and defense of the 194 will be difficult to discount. The recent national conference on the family promoted by the government, finally, was branded as the new clerical and secular lobby criticized for producing a lot of talk and little action. This line is Irene Tinagli, economist, former head of the Democratic Party and now member of the Foundation of Luca di Montezemolo, "Italy to come", the embryo of the future political grouping that will be built around the former president of Fiat.
