Désolée, mon intention n'était pas offensante, juste descriptive: en Roumanie, la pression religieuse est devenue si grande que le nouveau président mathématicien a dû se marier avec sa partenaire (et on lui demande si les enfants sont baptisés etc.). Si c'est un effet boomerang, apprendre & éviter

I'll look deeper into the article's details.

Chat GPT found this from an interview with a Philipp Felsch and his book on Habermas. The exact quote is "Europe, the West, communicative reason, the overcoming of war as a means of politics — everything he fought for is now being lost 'step by step'
