1. Το ΕΔΑΔ δε θέλει να πάρει την ευθύνη και στην ουσία ρίχνει το μπαλάκι στις χώρες-μέλη (όπως έκανε και με τους γάμους ομοφύλων).
2. Δεν υπάρχει πρόβλημα με το σταυρό στις ιταλικές αίθουσες, γιατί δεν συνοδεύεται από προσηλυτισμό, αλλά είναι ένα "παθητικό σύμβολο" (ισχύει αυτό στην Ελλάδα;;;):The Court concludes in the present case that the decision whether crucifixes should be present in State-school classrooms is, in principle, a matter falling within the margin of appreciation of the respondent State. Moreover, the fact that there is no European consensus on the question of the presence of religious symbols in State schools (see paragraphs 26-28 above) speaks in favour of that approach.
[...]Furthermore, a crucifix on a wall is an essentially passive symbol and this point is of importance in the Court's view, particularly having regard to the principle of neutrality (see paragraph 60 above). It cannot be deemed to have an influence on pupils comparable to that of didactic speech or participation in religious activities
3. Ο σταυρός πρέπει να επιτρέπεται να υπάρχει γιατί υπήρχε εκεί για εκατοντάδες χρόνια (!).Firstly, the presence of crucifixes is not associated with compulsory teaching about Christianity (see the comparative-law information set out in Zengin, cited above, § 33). Secondly, according to the indications provided by the Government, Italy opens up the school environment in parallel to other religions.
A court of human rights cannot allow itself to suffer from historical Alzheimer's. It has no right to disregard the cultural continuum of a nation's flow through time, nor to ignore what, over the centuries, has served to mould and define the profile of a people.
