The recent "I have no regrets" of Mrs. Alicia Sánchez-Camacho, referring to her in vitro fertilization, reminded me of the famous "non, je ne regrette rien" by Édith Piaf. That French song, immortalized by her in 1960, is a frappant monument of the interwar and later culture, of impressive grandeur, which has deserved a magnificent film.

On the other hand, the affirmation of the illustrious parliamentarian, published in the newspaper El Mundo, and the whole context implied in such declarations is the fruit of the faded 68, equally French, although only in half, of much shorter and flatter flight.

La Philosophy debole, which is now in vogue, would not resist a comparison with the existentialist Philosophy from the twenties to the fifties. Heideggery Vattimo, to cite two emblematic cases, are situated on different rungs.

I ignore the religious convictions of Mrs. Sánchez-Camacho. I suspect, however, that the arguments of the journalist Pedro Simón when he reminded her of ecclesiastical anathemas were of little relevance to her.

And I think he was right, because bringing a child into the world is a matter of nature, rather than of the Church. In this matter, the rights of nature prevail, to echo the continuous claim of ecologists (and also of the Church), and also the rights of the child to maintain a prudent reservation about its origin.

It is not, then, the Church that demands a certain behavior, but nature itself, which demands not to be manipulated, even if other arguments and even the maternal instinct want to have the last word, when it seems to me that they do not have it.

Not everything that can be done must be done, unless we want to stumble again on Hiroshima, and not exactly mon amour, of course, in memory and honor of the memorable film by Alain Resnais on a text by the great novelist Marguerite Duras (and with French culture we have stumbled again).

Allow me a brief final digression.

I always prefer to leave the emergency door ajar. award Others have order apologized for things not so complex, although with greater political or media repercussions, such as hunting an elephant in Africa, sticking their finger in someone else's eye or having eaten a rival car on the starting grid of a great F-1 race.

In the face of such events, the media stir has been great and, I fear, disproportionate; now, however, and this worries me greatly, there has been almost no reaction to the aforementioned statements of our parliamentarian.
