Book Description
Por el mismo motivo que lo hice respecto a "El Apocalipsis de Los Pueblos - Corrupción, Demagogia, Miseria y Emigración", siento que debo alertar a mis lectores más apegados a los formulismos académicos que, esta modesta obra, está básicamente concebida para llegar a los pueblos emergentes. Esa humanidad libre de pensamiento y acción que en todas las épocas ha constituido la incontenible fuerza de propulsión del positivo desarrollo de la sociedad humana. Santo Antonio de Padua, ese discípulo de San Francisco de Asís nacido en Lisboa, cuando los tan corruptos como soberbios paduanos rechazaron escuchar su sermón, no dudó llevarlo a los peces que, según la leyenda del milagro, acudieron a la playa a escucharlo. Es, pues, con el ejemplo de su persistencia, que decidí ampliarles mi visión de la libertad y la justicia como indiscutibles atributos de Dios.
