He criticized attempts to redefine marriage to include same-sex couples, labeling the granting of adoption rights to such couples as an act of lawlessness against the child.<\/p>\n<h4>Abortion and the Definition of Freedom<\/h4>\n<p>Szlachetka rejected the notion that legalizing abortion is an expression of freedom, characterizing it instead as murder. He further argued that schools should prioritize religious or ethical instruction to foster values.<\/p>\n<h4>Criticism of the Education System<\/h4>\n<p>The Bishop criticized the state for making religious education optional and marginalized within the school schedule. He described the exclusion of religious grades from grade point averages as discriminatory and a sign of disrespect toward believers.<\/p>\n<p>He also condemned the introduction of a new subject he identified as &#8220;health education,&#8221; claiming it is poisoned with ideology and serves as a replacement for family life education, which he believes facilitates sin.<\/p>\n<h4>Warnings Against Atheism and Euthanasia<\/h4>\n<p>Szlachetka warned that a persistent drive to remove religious education from schools could lead to the creation of &#8220;selfish atheists&#8221; who might eventually support euthanasia for the elderly, the sick, and the vulnerable.<\/p>\n<h4>Support for Radio Maryja<\/h4>\n<p>Concluding his address, the Bishop thanked Radio Maryja for encouraging the faithful to engage in politics. He also asked for prayers for the station&#8217;s director, Father Tadeusz Rydzyk, whom he defended against public criticism.<\/p>\n<h4>Event Details<\/h4>\n<p>The 35th Pilgrimage of the Radio Maryja Family began Saturday afternoon with a concert. The event continues on Sunday with a solemn mass led by Pozna\u0144 Metropolitan Archbishop Zbigniew Zieli\u0144ski.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Auxiliary Bishop Wies\u0142aw Szlachetka of the Archdiocese of Gda\u0144sk addressed the 35th Radio Maryja Family Pilgrimage at Jasna G\u00f3ra on Saturday, July 11, criticizing current secular state policies and educational reforms.
