" "La respuesta de Jesús al Buen Ladrón va más allá de la petición. En lugar de un futuro indeterminado habla de un «hoy»: «Hoy estarás conmigo en el paraíso» (Lc 23,43) También estas palabras están llenas de misterio, pero nos enseñan ciertamente una cosa: Jesús sabía que entraba directamente en comunión con el Padre, que podía prometer el paraíso ya para «hoy». Sabía que reconduciría al hombre al paraíso del cual había sido privado: a esa comunión con Dios en la cual reside la verdadera salvación del hombre.
Así, en la historia de la espiritualidad cristiana, el buen ladrón se ha convertido en la imagen de la esperanza, en la certeza consoladora de que la misericordia de Dios puede llegarnos también en el último instante; la certeza de que, incluso después de una vida equivocada, la plegaria que implora su bondad no es vana. «Tú que escuchaste al ladrón, también a mí me diste esperanza», reza, por ejemplo, el Dies irae.

At the hour of its greatest success, Europe seems hollow, as if it were internally paralyzed by a failure of its circulatory system that is endangering its life, subjecting it to transplants that erase its identity. At the same time as its sustaining spiritual forces have collapsed, a growing decline in its ethnicity is also taking place.
Europe is infected by a strange lack of desire for the future. Children, our future, are perceived as a threat to the present, as if they were taking something away from our lives. Children are seen as a liability rather than as a source of hope. There is a clear comparison between today's situation and the decline of the Roman Empire.
