“Não se quer um museu a Salazar, mas também não se quer um espaço onde se diga mal da figura principal”. Após mais de 20 anos na cabeça dos autarcas de Santa Comba Dão, o polémico projeto que dará vida à Escola Cantina Salazar será avaliado pelo que realmente é e não pelo que alguns temiam que fosse. O Centro Interpretativo do Estado Novo — Regime e Resistência abrirá portas na sexta-feira à tarde, no Vimieiro, naquela que foi uma escola modelo do Estado Novo, com coordenação científica da Associação Ephemera, fundada por Pacheco Pereira. “O trabalho desenvolvido até aqui

Um “cidadão comum” foi à praça lisboeta porque estava incomodado com a “falta de responsabilidade” para com os agentes da autoridade. Os recentes protestos pelo direito à habitação têm, como habitualmente, cânticos, slogans, assembleias populares e cartazes. Nesta quarta-feira de manhã, um lisboeta não gostou de ver os cartazes que estavam na Praça do Rossio, em Lisboa, e foi até lá para retirá-los.

We still confuse power, charisma, the big and spectacular, gifting, with true spirituality.  Instead we need to see the Holy Spirit at work always leads us to hear and see that Jesus is Lord.   We all know it.

The world as originally made was very good, but sin has radically corrupted it. Nevertheless, though sin pervades everything so that nothing is left untouched or remains completely pure, things may be distorted, but they are not as bad as they might ever be.   As we read the first three chapters of Genesis, several...
