A criminal complaint was filed against this priest, which is again perfect grist for the mill of Kremlin-funded disinformation websites. Namely, disinformation began to spread about how the Czech Republic is a dictatorship where there is no freedom of speech, and on the contrary, how Russia is a perfectly free country where everyone can say what they want.<br \/> Cardinal Duka supported Pi\u0165ha, who preached against the Istanbul Convention. Hal\u00edk criticizes the priest <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20240815130631\/https:\/\/www.irozhlas.cz\/zpravy-domov\/dominik-duka-petr-pitha-tomas-halik-istanbulske-umluve_1810131313_pj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.irozhlas.cz\/zpravy-domov\/dominik-duka-petr-pitha-tomas-halik-istanbulske-umluve_1810131313_pj<\/a><br \/> &#39;Homosexuals will rule.&#39; Scandalous sermon cannot be overlooked, criticizes priest Hal\u00edk&#39;s speech <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lidovky.cz\/domov\/homosexualove-budou-vladnout-tenhle-skandal-nelze-prejit-kritizuje-projev-kneze-halik.A181012_094059_ln_domov_jho\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.lidovky.cz\/domov\/homosexualove-budou-vladnout-tenhle-skandal-nelze-prejit-kritizuje-projev-kneze-halik.A181012_094059_ln_domov_jho<\/a><\/p><ul><li> In this article, I will directly quote sections of the convention. This will probably be the most factual article.<\/li><li> The reason for the great success of hoaxes about the so-called Istanbul Convention is that two forces have joined forces. The so-called alternative media and Christian activists, who have a number of well-organized organizations. Politicians, who have a huge media space, fell for the hoaxes and spread false news through the media.<\/li><li> The Conference of Bishops of Slovakia also expressed a negative opinion on the convention. The Church did not understand that it must be damnably cautious. The Catholic Church did not understand that we live in an era of hybrid warfare and fake news, and that religious activists are useful idiots supported by the Kremlin to spread subversion, hatred, and distrust towards the EU. The basis of Russian propaganda is hatred towards the West, portraying the West as a country of corrupt homosexuals and pedophiles.<\/li><li> I was unable to find a single article from disinformation websites that were critical of the convention and that also had claims substantiated by credible sources. No critical article contained the full authentic text of the Istanbul Convention. The full text can only be downloaded from websites that express a positive view of the convention. Anyone who wants to deliberately mislead will not publish the authentic text.<\/li><li> I have not been able to find a single article criticizing the Istanbul Convention that would actually quote any part of it. Religious fanatics and Kremlin-backed websites want to deliberately mislead and deceive their naive followers. On the contrary, this truthful and objective article will quote the allegedly controversial parts of the Istanbul Convention.<\/li><li> Few of the critics of the Istanbul Convention have even read it. I have read this document in its entirety. I can responsibly say that the entire document is truly about abused women and there were no ulterior motives to secretly infiltrate some alleged &quot;gender ideology&quot;.<\/li><li> It must be admitted that the convention is a rather boring read, and several passages are unnecessarily repeated more than once.<\/li><li> A large part of the text is more suitable for Muslim countries, where women have no legal protection and the abuse of women is legal. There are passages that also talk about the mutilation of female genital organs &#8211; female circumcision. It would be appropriate if the Istanbul Convention were divided into two documents &#8211; one for Muslim countries and the other for civilized Europe. The Convention has already been signed by two Muslim countries, Albania and Turkey. Even the strongly conservative and strongly Christian Polish politicians had no problem with the contracting party &#8211; they signed it. On the other hand, by signing the Convention, European countries can be a good example for Muslim countries. Many of the commitments in the Istanbul Convention are already enshrined in the current legal system.<\/li><li> The convention also talks about limiting abortions, which religious conservatives are fighting for so hard &#8211; it says about the prohibition of abortion without the woman&#39;s consent.<\/li><li> Furthermore, religious dogmas strictly prohibit sterilization, and religious activists are very active in fighting against the sterilization of women. The convention states a strict prohibition of sterilization without the woman&#39;s consent. Religious activists, such as Mr. Chrom\u00edk, contradict themselves.<\/li><\/ul><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Termination_of_the_contract\"><\/span> <strong>Termination of the contract<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p> Few people know about this fact. While activists say that the convention is a dangerous dictatorship of Brussels that takes away our freedom, in fact, it is clearly written in the convention that the treaty can be terminated at any time!<br \/> Quote: <em>Article 80: Denunciation: Any Contracting Party may denounce this Convention at any time by means of a notification addressed to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe.<\/em> End of quote.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_this_section_I_will_also_directly_quote_potentially_controversial_parts_of_the_Istanbul_Convention\"><\/span> <strong>In this section, I will also directly quote potentially controversial parts of the Istanbul Convention:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p> <em>Article 14: Education: The Contracting Parties shall take, where appropriate, the necessary steps to include in the official curricula at all levels of education study materials relating to the issues of equality between men and women, non-stereotypical gender roles, mutual respect<\/em> , &#8230; End of quote<br \/> Only a person obsessed with conspiracy theories can see a problem behind this. If children are taught in school that women should have the same pay as men, that men can also take maternity leave, and that women can also be police officers, then there is really nothing wrong with that. These are not new things; this is how our laws and our society already function today.<br \/><br \/> <em>Quote,<\/em> <em>Article 12, General obligations.

Its past is the violent Christianization of Europe, America, and the Inquisition. And although homosexuals do not interfere with the church, the church interferes with them and sees a fictional enemy behind them. The church tries to impose its worldview on them even through means such as a referendum. The proverb &quot;live and let live&quot; does not mean much to church people. Homophobia in non-religious people, although these people may despise the church, is also a remnant of past energies that are still among us \u2013 these are medieval church-inquisitorial energies. Many non-religious people do not realize how much they have in common with religion, that they are attuned to the energies of the dark Christian past.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Links\"><\/span> <strong>Links<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p> You can download the original document here.<br \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omediach.com\/tlacove-spravy\/12624-co-je-istanbulsky-dohovor-toto-je-cele-znenie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.omediach.com\/tlacove-spravy\/12624-co-je-istanbulsky-dohovor-toto-je-cele-znenie<\/a><br \/> Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Convention_on_preventing_and_combating_violence_against_women_and_domestic_violence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Convention_on_preventing_and_combating_violence_against_women_and_domestic_violence<\/a><br \/> An amazing cartoon about the Istanbul Convention <a href=\"https:\/\/dennikn.sk\/1040534\/shooty-strasidelne-slovicko\/?ref=tema\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/dennikn.sk\/1040534\/shooty-strasidelne-slovicko\/?ref=tema<\/a><br \/><br \/><\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_search_for_a_fictitious_enemy_is_a_strongly_fixed_characteristic_of_the_human_psyche\"><\/span> <strong>The search for a fictitious enemy is a strongly fixed characteristic of the human psyche.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p> <strong>Psychology: Why do we look for a fictional enemy?

For some reason, the search for a fictitious enemy is strongly fixed in the human psyche. Propaganda based on the existence of a fictitious enemy will always be very successful.<br \/> We also know the fictional enemy from the past. History repeats itself. What were the so-called inquisitorial trials about? A crowd of people accused an innocent girl of conspiring with the devil, and people believed that a girl associated with the devil was responsible for all their troubles, bad weather, or crop failure.<br \/> According to propaganda, George Soros, the EU, or the Istanbul Convention are to blame for all the evil on this planet.<br \/> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;People enjoy listening to simple propaganda that clearly names the enemy, clearly names the cause of evil. It is psychologically pleasant if people can blame their personal failures, failures in life, suffering, injustices, and problems in life on some fictional enemy.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In this article, I will directly quote sections of the convention.
