A concentration of a hundred people last Sunday at the doors of the church of St. Nicholas, in El Arenal Bilbao, is the latest public expression of the campaign that the Women's Assembly of Bizkaia and other groups are developing to respond "to the continuous attacks of the Catholic Church against sexual freedom, support the fascist coup of 1936 or interest in influencing the social advances in the XXI century.
In this mobilization, the feminist group confirmed that it has more than 200 applications from people wishing to forsake the Church which Joseph Ratzinger heads. It is not the only group that promotes the abandonment of the Catholic Church after coming to a part of it through baptism. A dozen citizens has formed a platform for promoting it. In recent months, 103 Biscay have apostate, many initiated by Hegoak.
The declaration of apostasy is the only way that the Catholic Church in principle recognizes that a baptized person ceases to belong to ellla on a voluntary basis since the departure of religious practice in the absence of a formal demonstration leaving the Church does not involve any special status. In his practice, up to a resolution of the Data Protection Agency (DPA) July 2007, refused or put obstacles to the acceptance of declarations of apostasy.
Following the recent decisions of the APD, in compliance with the Organic Law on Data Protection, the Catholic Church is required to withdraw from all their records, beginning with the Book of baptism, the person who demands it. The administrative process begins with a request to cancel the Bishopric of data from the certificate of baptism, and all others you may have about the status of members of the Church of Rome. To do this, who claims it must rely on the English Law on Protection of Personal Data, which entitles to the cancellation of the data that the institution has on citizens without their authorization.
The basic requirements for the cancellation request is a photocopy of ID, you do not need collating, and a letter to the authority of the documents, which is the diocese. Baptism books are in the parishes, and pastors are in charge of registration, but officials of the diocese have to ensure cancellation. Therefore, if someone does not know what parish he was baptized, no matter, can do the same request. Certify
delivery to the Bishopric
does not need another paper, "but it may be desirable to give the date and parish of baptism", clear from the Women's Assembly of Bizkaia, which apostille is not required either a birth certificate. It is important for certifying the delivery of the petition in the Bishopric.
also have to ask the Bishop a statement of apostasy, which confirms that it has renounced the religion that leads Benedict XVI. This management is regulated by the Church, which requires a baptismal certificate and a personal interview. "There is no right to oppose another formula, is a question of the Church", they say.
may be that Church authorities denied the cancellation, in this case, many applicants turn to the English Agency for Data Protection, which is giving them the right reason to enter your unsubscribe request on the margin of the birth certificate. In addition, other legal remedies before the High Court have thrived, meeting the judges should not be an entry in the book of the parish baptism, but the abolition of registration. The English Episcopal Conference has appealed the ruling to the Supreme Court should rule on this issue.
The Women's Assembly of Bizkaia informed the parties that, from the documentation presented at the offices of the diocese in Begoña, the diocese has a period of ten days to respond to who carried out the cancellation of the data. "He will not do-ahead", because in any case would make the score, but this too is doing the former. And then we have a year to go to the APD. "
platform for apostasy in Bilbo, for his part, recalls that the campaign began two years ago because of "totally disrespectful position towards certain groups, like homosexuals, or contrary to the practice of certain rights by women. " "It is increasingly difficult, appear from Sare Antifaxista involved in this initiative remain popular, reactionary organization that beatific Falangists and steals the property of the people, as in Navarre where he has enrolled his name churches built with the people's money. "
This anti-fascist group Euskal Herria defends the right to apostasy and criticism that the Church "tells of their own to appear, but do not practice their rituals irrational, and that takes advantage of the social custom imposed for centuries." So far, they have participated in propaganda and the release of information leaflets in front of temples.
part of its campaign for secularism, "and in response to continuing attacks by the Catholic Church, to deny the rights of women to decide about their lives and their bodies and the right to sexual freedom ...», Women's Assembly of Bizkaia intends to deliver all requests for apostasy achieve the 14th of March in the Bishopric of Bilbo in Begonia.
