A Semana Santa e os pecados da carne
02/04/12 12:36
Ah, permita, amigo, como ex-coroinha, mascar a hóstia da nostalgia e decretar: a Semana Santa foi praticamente extinta e desmoralizada pelos católicos.
Já era. Agora não passa de um vulgar feriadão de sexta-feira.
Senta que lá vem meu fragmento de “Amacord”, meus recuerdos de Ypacarai:
A melhor coisa da Semana Santa, além de não ter aula de segunda até sexta, era a proibição de tomar banho de quarta-feira por diante.
Outra coisa boa e perversa era fazer o papel, no drama da “Paixão de Cristo”, de um daqueles soldados que descem o chicote em Jesus.
Sem essa de distanciamento teatral. Era no lombo mesmo, o que dava mais veracidade ao espetáculo ali nas proximidades do Romeirão, em Juazeiro do Norte.
A Semana Santa era mesmo uma bênção dos céus. Não essa meia-boca de hoje, apenas com a sexta-feira dedicada ao ócio criativo.
E ai de quem teimasse contra as leis divinas. Ficava aleijado, óbvio, como nos milhares de relatos ouvidos a cada ano.
Quarta-feira de Trevas. A folhinha do calendário já deixava o veto ao banho mais do que explícito. Não podia mesmo. Nem de açude.
Só os desnaturados pecadores ou comunistas, e eles estão em toda parte, desdenhavam dos costumes, mesmo sob o risco de ficarem tronchos e empenados.
A pequena gente, a meninada, sempre correndo do banho qual um bode, vibrava com a proibição católica.
Parecíamos aquele garoto judeu que faz o Woody Allen criança no filme “A Era do Rádio”.
O gurizinho, fina ironia, chega à conclusão de que há uma grande vantagem em ter nascido em uma família pobre naqueles anos 1940, arredores de Nova York: não ser obrigado a escovar os dentes com o mesmo rigor que os filhos dos mais endinheirados.
Hoje em dia na mesma Juazeiro, conhecida como a Meca do Cariri, uma minoria de católicos mais ortodoxos ainda guarda alguns preceitos antigos da Semana Santa.
A maioria liberou geral. Até banho toma nas trevas da quarta-feira.
Nem mesmo a distância da carne vermelha é questão de vida ou morte. A própria igreja relaxou o expediente. Digamos que a carestia na venda do bacalhau e do peixe tenha contribuído, ano a ano, para esta reforma do cânone.
O que os mais fervorosos não arriscam de jeito algum é a bíbilica conjunção carnal. O sexo continua um tabu nos grotões e vilas. Até os pequenos cabarés, os velhos bregas e lupanares, fecham suas portas.
É mesmo uma tristeza a vida de puta na Semana Santa, mas elas sempre fizeram questão, justiça histórica seja feita, de suspender as atividades. É hora de jejum e penitência.
Ao macho que comete o tresloucado gesto sobra um impiedoso e cruel destino: a impotência para todo o sempre, como prega a crendice.
Um amigo do Cariri, o Clóvis, ex-coroinha, católico à vera, papa-hóstia juramentado, vivia a paranóia de que as moças só lhe davam bola durante a Semana Santa. Era um daqueles donzelos que estampavam nas feições os vincos da estiagem e da carência. Um queijudo mesmo, coitado.
Tempos depois ficamos sabendo que se tratava de pura perversidade feminina. Só para testar a resistência católica e apostólica do garoto que ajudava o padre nos rituais da missa.
Boa Semana Santa a todos. Com jejum ou com muito sexo, se possível!

If you’re constantly consuming these foods, moving over to grain and other complex carbohydrates will let you have more energy while ingesting less. Great blog post.
