| Pentecost |
One of the liturgical feast of Pentecost, the readings, which plays an important meaning, but it is rarely preached in the history of the Tower of Babel, which was declared by the Vigil.
The story of the Tower of Babel is the last of the creation stories in the first eleven chapters of Genesis, stories that explain the human condition, why things are as they are, here and now. The story of Babel explains the phenomenon of different languages, the sad reality of division and separation
The human family, the inability or unwillingness of many people to communicate, collaborate, hatred and hostility that characterizes human relationships. All this is the result of pride and arrogance of man is expressed in a project to build a tower that would reach heaven, God.

Read the first Sunday of Pentecost is an explanation of how the Holy Spirit, because they were the apostles to preach in their own language and be understood in other languages they spoke publicly. They preached the good news that Jesus died on the cross and resurrected three days later, a new creation, the cross, which had violated the hostility and revenge, hatred and revenge, which rose from the dead brought a message of reconciliation and peace of their own.
Create something new has happened since the paschal mystery, the world has changed. Humanity has been redeemed by his pride and joy of sharing Jesus' death and resurrection. Men and women are created a new baptism, is or should be, a source of unity rather than division of the association, not separated from each other, mutual understanding is not, confusion , fear and respect of the second contempt or disrespect for the acceptance and love instead of hatred and rejection. For us Christians, we are a new creation. This is the message and meaning of Pentecost.

But there are still many of us who have not returned uncashed, to the extent that it is still infected with crippled proud of "individual and collective pride of racial discrimination, ethnic pride, national pride, regional pride, pride, social The personal pride. We think of ourselves as better, smarter, more virtuous, workers more difficult, more talent, blessed by God with others. Therefore, the discrimination against them, and so we will be able to feel or understand the truth, but the encounter. Sin Pride continues to destroy the creation that God has called into existence, and so it was very good.
In celebration of the Pentecost Festival is to celebrate diversity, to celebrate the unity of the differences in the middle, forming a single body of Christ.
