Sunday of Resurrection, or the minute of Truth

niepoprawni.pl 10 months ago

It's Easter again. In the shops of plastic hares, in commercials of cheerfully squeaking lambs, and in the streets – anxiety that no 1 wants to call. For we are to rejoice, to "celebrate life" – as those who do not even remember who gave life say.

But Easter is not a celebration of colored eggs or mayonnaise festival. It's not another halt in the consumption calendar. This is the minute of truth. Christ rose from the dead – not metaphorically, not in poetry, but in real, physical, contrary to logic and against the world, who has been trying for 2 1000 years to silence, talk, laugh. For if He is risen, everything else makes sense. And if not, then why all this?

I look at Poland present and see a country that washes hands like Pilate. He wants to be modern, European, but without a cross. He wants a vacation – but without holiness. Dots alternatively of sacraments, saints without fasting, “ Easter breakfast” alternatively of Resurrection. A culture without roots, a nation without conscience. A power that pursues Christians faster than thieves. A society that laughs at the "dark garden" and then desperately seeks meaning in yoga, crystals and online soul-savers.

Easter is not nice. She's drastic. Crucifixion was not a phase performance – it was a brutal execution of God by man. But it was this sacrifice that brought life. Not 1 that ends in breath, but eternal life. This is simply a real revolution – quiet but final.

Therefore, Easter is not an chance to "rest with the family". It's a call. Either you accept the Risen 1 and change your life, or you keep moving until you run out of roads.

And then... there will be no more rabbits or lambs. Just the question: what did you do with the truth?
