One aspect not to be overlooked in the history of the Italian nation is of the Christian religion. It 's a paradox, if we want: there is no "Italian" without spirituality and Christian culture, but was born without unify Italy, and in many ways "against" the Catholicism of the time.
E 'this argument is frequently used by the secularist anti-Christian superstition is prevalent today: the Catholics were unrelated to the location unit, not getting involved and indeed often make it difficult.
There is some truth: the Church's temporal power, now that time is running low, he chose not to get involved, thwarting the hopes of those who (as Rosmini and Gioberti) believed in driving role of the Church in the process of unification.
was a grave sin, because the breath unit was left in a monopoly on a minority (the liberal / anti-clerical), the Enlightenment in the worst sense of the term and burdened by a strong contrast to mortgage pagan and Masonic. It bears the consequences today.
Yet the Christian presence in Italy and in Europe is organic development and culture for two millennia. The reference figures are many and that can not be cited without all wrong, but just wondering what would the world be without the reconstruction work begun by St. Benedict, without a return to spirituality the little things of St. Francis of Assisi, without attention to the youth of St. Joseph Calasanz or St. John Bosco, without the care of the weakest of San Camillo de 'Lellis, or the more recent Blessed Don Luigi Orione, Don Giuseppe Cottolengo or Don Carlo Gnocchi.
Today, as then the Christian presence in Italian society is well established, and not so much on the political (even if that season is now past today mourned by many), but socially and ethically. Without, it would be one huge party radical, all rights and permissions: the Wild West.
