Reda\u00e7\u00e3o de Washington, D.C., 17 de julho de 2024 \/ 17:35 (CNA).<\/p>\n

Aos 39 anos, o senador do Ohio James David \u201cJ.D.\u201d Vance, rec\u00e9m-anunciado companheiro de chapa de Donald Trump nas elei\u00e7\u00f5es de 2024, tem a oportunidade de se tornar o segundo vice-presidente cat\u00f3lico dos Estados Unidos.<\/p>\n

Vance \u00e9 o segundo membro mais jovem do Senado dos EUA. Assumiu o cargo em 2023.<\/p>\n

Foi batizado e crismado na Igreja Cat\u00f3lica aos 35 anos na St. Gertrude\u2019s, um priorado dominicano em Cincinnati.<\/p>\n

Num artigo de 2020 na The Lamp<\/a> intitulado \u201cOn Mamaw and Becoming Catholic\u201d (Sobre a Mamaw e tornar-se cat\u00f3lico), Vance refletiu sobre a sua convers\u00e3o como um processo que ocorreu \u201clenta e irregularmente\u201d ao longo de v\u00e1rios anos.<\/p>\n

Segundo Vance, a sua jornada gradual rumo \u00e0 f\u00e9 foi inspirada pelo exemplo da sua av\u00f3, \u201cMamaw\u201d, a quem descreve como \u201cuma mulher de f\u00e9 profunda, mas completamente desinstitucionalizada\u201d.  <\/p>\n

Depois de crescer num lar pobre nos Apalaches, servir quatro anos nos Fuzileiros Navais e obter um diploma em Direito em Yale, Vance diz que se considerava ateu. <\/p>\n

Apesar de desafiar as probabilidades da sua origem humilde e subir na hierarquia econ\u00f3mica e social, Vance disse que n\u00e3o estava feliz com o seu estado de vida e come\u00e7ou a desenvolver uma inclina\u00e7\u00e3o para o cristianismo e para o catolicismo em particular.<\/p>\n

\u201cComecei a perguntar-me: Ser\u00e1 que todos estes marcadores mundanos de sucesso me estavam realmente a tornar uma pessoa melhor? Troquei a virtude pela realiza\u00e7\u00e3o e descobri que esta \u00faltima era insuficiente\u201d, escreveu. \u201cHavia uma voz na minha cabe\u00e7a que exigia mais de mim.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSenti-me desesperado por uma vis\u00e3o do mundo que compreendesse o nosso mau comportamento como sendo simultaneamente social e individual, estrutural e moral; que reconhecesse que somos produtos do nosso ambiente; que temos a responsabilidade de mudar esse ambiente, mas que continuamos a ser seres morais com deveres individuais; uma vis\u00e3o que pudesse manifestar-se contra as taxas crescentes de div\u00f3rcio e depend\u00eancia, n\u00e3o como conclus\u00f5es higienizadas sobre as suas externalidades sociais negativas, mas com indigna\u00e7\u00e3o moral.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mais do que qualquer filosofia pol\u00edtica, Vance escreveu que rapidamente percebeu que esta vis\u00e3o do mundo que procurava era uma que conhecia h\u00e1 muito tempo: \u201cEra o Cristianismo da minha av\u00f3.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cApesar da falta de familiaridade da minha av\u00f3 com a liturgia, as influ\u00eancias culturais romanas e italianas, e o papa estrangeiro, comecei lentamente a ver o Catolicismo como a express\u00e3o mais pr\u00f3xima do seu tipo de Cristianismo, uma f\u00e9 centrada num Cristo que nos exige perfei\u00e7\u00e3o, mesmo enquanto nos ama incondicionalmente e perdoa facilmente\u201d, escreveu ele.<\/p>\n

Foi \u201ca parte cat\u00f3lica do meu cora\u00e7\u00e3o\u201d que Vance disse exigir que ele pensasse nas coisas que realmente importam, que tratasse o seu filho com paci\u00eancia, moderasse o seu temperamento, valorizasse a sua fam\u00edlia acima do seu rendimento e prest\u00edgio, e perdoasse aqueles que o prejudicaram.<\/p>\n

\u201cSe eu quisesse que essa parte de mim fosse nutrida e crescesse, precisava de fazer mais do que ler o livro ocasional de teologia ou refletir sobre as minhas pr\u00f3prias falhas. Precisava de rezar mais, de participar na vida sacramental da Igreja, de me confessar e de me arrepender publicamente, por mais embara\u00e7oso que isso pudesse ser\u201d, disse ele. <\/p>\n

\u201cE eu precisava de gra\u00e7a. Precisava, por outras palavras, de me tornar cat\u00f3lico, n\u00e3o apenas de pensar nisso.\u201d<\/p>\n

Numa entrevista de novembro de 2022 ao \u201cEWTN News Nightly<\/a>\u201d, Vance descreveu a hist\u00f3ria e a riqueza da f\u00e9 cat\u00f3lica como as for\u00e7as que guiam a sua pol\u00edtica, afirmando que \u201cuma das grandes li\u00e7\u00f5es da tradi\u00e7\u00e3o cat\u00f3lica \u00e9 que se tem tanto uma pol\u00edtica p\u00fablica que protege a vida como tamb\u00e9m se respeita a dignidade do trabalhador americano\u201d.<\/p>\n
