Hatred is not contained in political thinking. Any hatred worked up against the public enemy is non-political, and always shows some weakness in the internal political situation. ↗

The success and achievement of Western Civilization couldn't have been possible without the intellectual contribution of the Enlightenment. Prior to the Enlightenment, freedom of opinion, or consciousness were not guaranteed. In fact, intellectual self-reliance was considered an heresy. For the first time in history, human beings were able to challenge traditions, superstitions or religious authoritarianism with absolute intellectual confidence. Now individuals could open the doors to knowledge and reason, exercising pure intellectual freedom. This is the glory and trascendence of this movement. Now the individual can make choices, and being responsable of his own life, instead of following instructions of some totalitarian institution. In the West, we have followed with excitenment this wave of freedom in the Middle East. But we are cautious. There won't be an authentic freedom, if men and women are incapable to think for themselves, If religious chauvinism still control the lives with totalitarian tools of oppresion. That is the dilemma to analize with more detail in the future". ↗
