Entry: Who's Infallible Here, Anyway? The Human Life Review Chooses Party Over Church Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/wars_and_rumors_of_war#5486 Post contents: Dr. Cathey You have given me reasons to hate you. I will explain. Burke justified revolutions only in these circumstances: The situation is desperate Changes cannot be made institutionally. The purpose must be to recover something lost, not embark on experiments. Ongania failed on all three. The situation was not desperate. There was ample opportunity to make changes institutionally as Dr. Illia's goverment was one of the few ones which respected the rights of the opposition. The object was not to "recover what was lost" but to experiment to create a corporatist model of society which, since it had not been tried before they had no idea if it would work or not. Ongania, Meinville, Caggiano and the others were as wicked as the French Revolutionists taht Burke condemned. We were not human beings to them, but guinea pigs on which to try their theories. I am sure glad that I am not a Catholic! Sent at: 2008 09 07
