THE SUPERFLUOUS THE CURSE OF CHRISTIANS - JEAN-FRANCOIS COLOSIMO

What do little girls with names taken from the Gospel, with torn earrings, nestled in the arms of parents fleeing the jihadists from Mosul on a day without tomorrow, have to tell us? That this time it's over. The end of Christians here, where Christianity was born. That they survived the centuries as hostages of Muslim domination and European colonialism, but in vain. That globalization has shattered their existence into dust. That we have just sacrificed them on the altar of America's imperial war with Islam and the domestic war waged by Sunnis against Shiites. That their catastrophe is also ours, because with them dies our oldest memory, our only hope for a mediator between West and East. And that our retaliatory crusades and humanitarian grievances fill them with bitterness, because even in the moment of death we do not stop instrumentalizing them, denying the debt that civilization has incurred towards them.

Jean-François Colosimo, a French writer and theologian, in his book "The Superfluous. The Curse of Christians" takes up the difficult topic of the persecution of Christians in the Middle East. The author analyzes the historical and contemporary causes of this phenomenon, showing the dramatic fate of people who have lived for centuries in areas where their religion was born. Colosimo draws attention to the complexity of the political and social situation that leads to the marginalization and persecution of Christians. This book is an important voice in the debate about the future of Christianity and about the condition of today's world.

The author not only describes the tragedy of Christians, but also analyzes the role of the West in this process. He points out that America's imperial policy and European colonialism have contributed to the deterioration of the situation of Christians in the Middle East. Colosimo also criticizes the instrumental treatment of Christians by the West, which uses their suffering for its own political purposes. This book is a warning against the moral suicide of a civilization that forgets its roots and its obligations towards other cultures and religions.

"The Superfluous. The Curse of Christians" is a book that makes you reflect on the condition of today's world and on the role of each of us in shaping its future. It is a must-read for all who want to understand the causes of conflicts in the Middle East and for those who care about the fate of persecuted Christians. This book is also an appeal for solidarity and responsibility for the fate of other people, regardless of their religion and origin.

This book, reaching back to twenty centuries of history, explains the present and helps to understand why the tragedy of the Christians of the East is a sign of our moral suicide. It is a book that should be on the shelf of everyone who is interested in history, religion and international politics. It is a book that remains in the memory long after reading it.
