The Brazillian Prison Sentence: A Symptom of the Naturalistic Reign of “Man Without God”

The National Catholic Register portal reports on a Brazilian couple, Audato and Ieda Denardi, sentenced to 50 days in prison for the “intellectual neglect” of their two daughters, aged 15 and 11, whom they homeschool according to traditional Christian values. The judge’s ruling explicitly cited the absence of state-mandated “gender and sex education” and the girls’ lack of affinity for popular music as evidence of educational deficiency, despite the children being advanced pianists and polyglots. The prosecution itself had requested acquittal, and an independent psychologist found no sign of neglect. This case is not an anomaly but a logical, violent manifestation of the secular state’s totalitarian claim to form the souls of children, a claim rooted in the same naturalistic ideology that the post-conciliar structures have failed to combat, instead baptizing it under the guise of “human rights” and “tolerance.”
