I’ve been thinking about what they have made us believe. Recognizing it is false.
When we were preparing for the long-awaited visit of John Paul II, in every diocese Christians were encouraged to go door to door inviting families to the meeting with the Pope.
A nun knocked on the door of a first-floor apartment in a building, where she was warmly and kindly received by the family. They invited her in, listened to her, spoke with her… Upon saying goodbye, they told her: “Sister, don’t go to the apartment on the fourth floor, because those people are communists who don’t even believe in their own mother.”
The nun, of course, went to the fourth floor, where she was wonderfully welcomed and received. But when she was leaving, they told her: “Sister, don’t you dare go to the apartment on the first floor, because communists live there who don’t even believe in their own mother.
One of the greatest “achievements” of the system established in Cuba has been to make us all distrust one another. I remember hearing endlessly the phrase: “Be careful, you never know who you’re talking to.”
