In previous articles I have quoted splendid comments from His Holiness John Paul II and Father Raniero Cantalamessa OFM on the real importance and identity of women in their legitimate nature and their enormous importance in life. As a contrast, I also quoted some statements by the imbecile Lázaro Cárdenas, unjust, perverse and revolutionary that describe women as a hindrance that must be annulled. Now I quote the words of José María Escrivá de Balaguer, founder of Opus Dei, interviewed in 1968: “Development, maturity, emancipation of women, should not mean a claim of equality or uniformity with men, an imitation of the manly way of acting: that would not be an achievement, it would be a loss for the woman, not because she is more or less than the man, but because she is different. On an essential level that must have its legal recognition, both in civil and ecclesiastical law, if we can speak of equal rights, because women have, exactly like men, the dignity of person and daughter of God . But starting from that fundamental equality, each one must achieve what is proper to him; and on this plane, emancipation is as much as saying the real possibility of fully developing one’s own potentialities: those that he has in her singularity, and those that he has as a woman. Equality before the law, equal opportunities before the law, does not suppress, but presupposes and promotes that diversity, which is wealth for all”.
