The first time I heard the word shekinah was in a Christian church, by studying Hebrew, some important meanings for my faith at that time ... the literal translation is "the glory and presence of God [1] ", the word comes from the word shakan , which translates as live or dwell ... also, this word, for some, it represents the feminine attributes of God's presence. For the Israelites, the presence, glory and power of God or shekinah lived in the temple of Jerusalem, more specifically, the "holy of holies," where he could only enter a descendant of the tribe of Levi, who were the direct charge priestly service in the tabernacle and temple. This place was only possible to enter absolutely pristine, pure, pure in heart, for the offering of the people. If it was not, immediately who dared to do, being impure, was eliminated by God immediately.
Later, with the advent of Roman Christianity [2] , and the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem in 70 AD, where the discussion was the presence of God resolved and settled in the body of man and woman of faith. So far it all sounds very nice, if not, because such a explanations for not seldom cruel, discriminatory and regressive practices of Catholic and Protestant Christian morality, which makes the body the prison of the spirit and the living object of sin. Well, being the body, the new " holiest " in the living presence of God or the Shekinah ... the body does not belong to man, he "belongs to God."
However, what I studied at the time, has been an excellent complement to what I heard in days spent during the IV International Forum of Private Law entitled " Contemporary Debates in Family Law " at the University of the Andes, during which subjects were revalued as the place occupies and which should occupy the family law within the law as dogmatic, the importance of making the law come alive, dynamic and creative through his study of inter-and transdisciplinary way and obviously, we examined the concept of family, Diversity and proposed legal challenges people with sexual orientation and gender identity diverse in the search for legal recognition of families are formed. Well, during the exposure of the jurist Ligia Galvis Ortiz [3] , contextualizing the discourse within a framework of CIVILITY mentioned the importance to meet again as SACRED BODIES ... but does this mean?
According to the dictionary of the Royal Academy of English Language, which defines sacred as "d ignorance of reverence for the divine nature or being related to God (...) That is worshiped by his relationship with supernatural forces of nature or unknown section (...) Of or pertaining to divine worship (...) worthy of veneration and respect (...) ; place that, by privilege, could serve as a refuge for those persecuted for justice " [4] . As we can see, this notion is usually linked to religious and spiritual beliefs of people. A fortiori, this curiosity that caused lawyers involved two concepts that somehow, our mentality medieval spear creole opposite sides and exclusive.
However, considering the proposals, sociology, anthropology, bioethics, legal , philosophical and political lesbian, bisexual, gay, trans, intersex, queer, curious, flexible, confused, diverse, mobile, indefinite and unhappy, they are bringing to our society (the same medieval Creole, already mentioned) and that my view really is proposing the construction of " citizenship destructuring " [5] , new citizenships, for new companies (although they are rising reluctantly), think the, the and vegan ciudadanxs as holy bodies, not only for religion, law, constitution, the state, but for himself mismxs, it makes sense to the extent that each one then you should search for DECISIONS being returned and highlight your DIGNITY .
If the sacred refers in all religions, to the fundamental, the most important principle at the base, the root, the origin of their beliefs is somehow the immovable, untouchable ... Why not think that way in front of the body, their autonomy and their ability ... Why not think and the freedom of the bodies and they represent citizenship ? sacred is precisely what is protected and isolated from the profane, impure, departs from it could damage or remove your qualification, then our struggle would be meaningless as sectors or social movements from a new perspective ... the untouchable because it is not the law, Vegan untouchable somxs nosotrxs ... curb the power of the right to appoint or not to name and thereby to exclude or not exclude, for it we and not live to nosotrxs for him, renewed the effort and beliefs, faith in what we can do as individuals, bodies destructuring, ciudadanxs, activists and holy beings ...
Our new framework, the paradigm that gradually imposes the rights, making it imperative to recognize, learn, understand and exercise their freedom, because what we used to have rights, as enshrined in a constitution like ours, when we have not able to decipher it is to be ciudadanx? When we are named but not all LA ciudadanxs somxs what? When our freedom is limited in order to reach the ballot box every day or "distort" the media?
So nosotrxs understand the importance of unique and sacred beings and "nosotrxs" as sets of individuals with a common cause, can open opportunities within our society, that blows your mind and judgments, we had to recognize, to continue in its deconstruction, not a disadvantage, because at least in our eyes, we would all be truly equal ...
