v2.0.8

"L’état de droit" ne se traduit pas directement par "rule of law", un concept juridique et politique bien connu des pays d’Europe de l’Ouest. En effet, il n’a pas d’équivalent exact dans la common law anglaise ou dans le droit américain. Toutefois, la traduction partielle la plus proche serait "constitutional law".

 						<p>Sometimes, an awakening like yours occurs when a new generation emerges or following an event that shocked the crowd (student strike, revolt against a government, opposition demonstration, or, as today, the <em>“indignant”</em> or <em>“occupy”</em> movement). Given the vast amount of work to be done — impossible for one man alone — and the silent crowd resisting change, many will give up. The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice but conformism: a submission to circumstances and outside influences.</p>
 						<p>You are weak for this world, but you can be strong for another only if you want to be. It starts with a handful of humans who decide, in full awareness, to live differently in order to break this vicious circle and dry up this perpetual revenge, who talk to others about following this practice, and with time, the number will tip the balance, the weak of today will be the strong of tomorrow.</p>
 						<p>But since it will be slow to come, why bother? Because the world must change. That is the only truth. I am a human being who has decided to free himself from this heritage, who acts and talks to other men to behave the same way, to rise up and finally develop their humanity, this state of greatness that we should never have left. The human being's place is not the world that those before us built. We are worth more than that. We are stuck in a trap, our feet in the mud, reduced to struggling heavily with tired and pathetic motions. Our potential is so much more sublime, we deserve more: to be ourselves, freed from the dogmas of men, to reclaim our power of creation and goodness.</p>
-						<p>Yet religion and politics also want to change the world. But what a failure! After 2000 years, religion has failed. It has sterilized the creative power of wisdom into dogmas and ritual practices. It has coveted earthly domination through devious interpretations of the sacred, of which it claims to be the sole guardian. It is now a merely authority like any other, enslaving and distancing itself from its ideals. In the same way, politics has turned ideologies into tyranny and democracy into new feudalism: peoples dared to vote no to the European Constitution in 2005? Never mind, the powerful leaders have arranged things differently, committing an act of high treason against the power of the citizen. Popular representation has become an illusion and elections are being distorted into a procedure for managing a professional career. To this end, they silently convert democracy and the rule of law into a more authoritarian and autocratic power, they make individual freedoms and equal rights disappear by granting legal privileges to interest groups or oligarchs that are easier to control. And what about the big economic systems that abuse nations, intimidating them into being outside the law, without rule or constraint. Their economic violence makes a small number of people rich, ruins everyone else and exhausts our planet. Their technological progress perverts itself in supporting a totalitarian power, without equity or responsibility. It only serves the power, be it financial, political, ideological or religious, and this power is obsessed only with its limitless growth. Today, progress and innovation evoke disaster.</p>

 						<p>Any political, economic, religious, ideological systems based on a form of exclusion: <em>“us versus the others”</em> or which classifies human beings: <em>“we are the superior, the pure, the chosen, the just, the defender, the true, the strong, the avenger…”</em> have always been a failure — without exception — because they are born of violence and thrive on force. Unfortunately, as soon as one disappears, another takes its place.</p>
 						<p>This <em>curse</em>, this vicious circle, this perpetual revenge, caused by the anomalies of a polluted system and contaminated minds, I call them <em>Evil</em> to reduce a complex situation to its core. This Evil is not inevitable. We can get out of it. We just have to replace it with Good. And I can see right away that you shrug your shoulders in doubt before this babbling of nonsense, which rivals a childish story. If it had been that simple, it would have been done long ago! That is right, this call is thousands of years old. But, guess what… nobody did it, believe it or not, it is true, or they were so few in number that no wave was formed. For centuries, man has been suffering and stubbornly building a wobbly society to satisfy conflicting interests, by calculations or doctrines. For centuries, politics, religion and science have encouraged the maintenance of this state. They have devised compensatory mechanisms to sustain this unstable equilibrium and an ever-precarious social peace. They systematically fail. Again and again, cracks appear where evil resurfaces and injustice reappears.</p>
 						<p>In response, the “indignant” who occupy the major capital cities around the world proclaim that they represent the 99%. They oppose the 1% that dominates power and wealth. This is a mistake, we are the 100%. We will change society with everyone. Everybody has to be a winner. It is wrong to believe that in order to win, the other must lose because he will be frustrated and will want revenge. Since they will have no peace, they will not have won. The novelty, the challenge of our time, is to be the first to choose to give up Evil for Good and live free at last, be ourselves and straighten up our sublime humanity. <em>The world must change, that is the only truth.</em> Don't you think it is time?</p>
