Cathedrals transformed into theaters and circuses, the case of the Milan Cathedral

Friday 23 November the singer Giorgia launched her new album Pop heart in the Cathedral of Milan. Today, churches and cathedrals, increasingly empty of faith, they transform into squalid theaters, where we sing and dance. Therefore, as well as preventing people who still wish to pray in church with increasingly Protestant liturgies, with noisy pastoral activism, with catechists hungry for protagonism and priests who are increasingly less priestly and increasingly convivial, places of worship are desecrated with concerts of profane music and exhibitions, more or less degenerate.
 
The Duomo is the largest church in Italy, the fourth in the world in terms of surface area, the sixth by volume. In January 1387 the foundations of the pylons were poured, colossal works, designed to the drawings of the previous year. During the 1387 excavations of the foundations continued and other pillars were installed. During the year the Duke of Milan Gian Galeazzo Visconti, took control of the works, imposing an ambitious project. The material chosen for the new construction then became Candoglia marble and the architectural forms those of the late Gothic of Rhenish-Bohemian inspiration. The monumental grandeur is combined with the mastery of the buttresses and flying buttresses, with the gracefulness of lace, embroidery, ladders, snails, arabesques, volute, pinnacles, cusps, spiers, soaring and full of the breath of Heaven. While Holy Virgins and Holy Patriarchs of stone look at poor or rich humanity, depending on the reason for living that each soul gives itself.
On the shelves of the window recesses there are statues and busts, on the buttresses statues covered by marble canopies (below) e 96 giants (above), on which the gargoyles depicted as monstrous and diabolical beings are perched. Other statues are found on the spiers, both at the crown and in the niches. The sculpture complex is an extraordinary art gallery in Milan between the 14th and neoclassicism, Lombard masters participated in its creation, tedeschi, boemi, French (including the Burgundians), Tuscans, Venetians and Champions. A team of professionals who sculpted figures from the Old and New Testaments, Saints and Saints.
The writer Emilio De Marchi praised it: «Under a ray of sunshine you appear, Blessed Madonna of our Cathedral! You who are the mother of all of us! Duomo who made you? How many years have you contemplated the foolishness of men?? You remember Napoleon, who broke your windows with mortars? In the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, it is our Cathedral, it is the church of our elders, it is the house of Milan».
The cathedral of Milan, House of the Father and Mother of God (the highest spire dominates the commonly called «Madonnina»), after Napoleon and the bombings of the Second World War, is shocked by the queen of pop: pop music first entered under these gothic vaults. But above all she is shocked by the Archbishop of Milan, Monsignor Mario Enrico Delpini, and by Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, President of the Pontifical Council for Culture, who allowed such a desecration. The Cardinal took care to announce that the concert would be streamed. The guests of the Refettorio Ambrosiano were spectators of the event, where Caritas volunteers offered meals to the city's poor. Cardinal Ravasi, which competes with the organizers of singing festivals and carries out non-evangelical acts and messages, thus commented on the initiative for the greater glory of Giorgia and the spectators of the social event:
«An Indian saying goes; if you have two loaves left over, Give one to the poor and sell the other, buy a flower and give it to the poor. The poor is not just a biological organism but a person who also needs beauty. This is why the idea of ​​making it available to people in difficulty also seems very significant to me, a moment like the one imagined in the Duomo with Giorgia, one of the most beautiful voices in our musical panorama».
And the Cardinal, to the panorama of God, when he thinks about it?
«Event for Milan» as the concert that offended the hearts of Catholics was titled, above all, the Holy Trinity, Mistress of the Cathedral of Milan, was organized by the Association for Milan, chaired by Anna Maria Tarantola, former director of the Bank of Italy, president of Rai since 8 June 2012 al 5 August 2015. Georgie, which made its debut for the general public in San Remo in the new proposals, can now boast of having been the first pop music artist in the world to have performed in the famous Duomo... a prestigious note to add to her professional CV... Her voice was accompanied by the music of her band and the Roma Sinfonietta Orchestra: band and Sinfonietta proposed the singer's repertoire and the proceeds from the evening will be used to finance various projects of the Municipality of Milan and the Ambrosian Caritas, increasingly distant from the cult of Our Lord and from the doctrine of the Church. «Another detail: the concert was to raise money for an association of entrepreneurs and managers who "will finance initiatives and projects for those who need it most". Ticket cost € 600[1]», as Agnese Farinelli writes in «Il Covile»[2].
As, in the magnificent cathedral, built to honor God and where generations and generations of ecclesiastics and faithful have followed one another ready to offer and receive sacraments, to bend your knees in front of the Blessed Sacrament, the notes of rang out Drops of memory, And then, How would I know, Vanity… but also Pockets full of rocks by Jovanotti, Anima by Pino Daniele, and they couldn't miss it You make me feel like a natural woman by the American soul singer Aretha Frankline and, those considered "politically expedient", l’Hail Mary di Schubert e White Christmas.
All, Who, it was jarring and out of place.
The anti-Catholic «Magister Kierkegaard in number 6 of his "magazine" The moment headlines an article The theater — the church. It's a difference, the one between the theater and the church, than current Christianity, then it was August of 1855, finds it difficult to find. If there is, says Kierkegaard, it's only because the theater honestly and sincerely admits to being what it is; the church, on the other hand, is a theater that tries in every way to dishonestly hide what it is. Actually today, after the concert of the local pop star Giorgia, held in the Milan Cathedral […] we don't even hide and the theatricalisation of the sacred place has taken over».
The many non-shepherds today, have become simple officials of a political-economic system that exploits the Church of Christ, they use churches as stages for their ideological and/or productive affairs. And underneath all this lies the action of Satan, greedy for clerical and non-clerical souls. Examples of nonsense, more or less bounced around the media and social media, that are perpetrated in sacred places is nothing short of appalling. But Pope Francis is silent and no action is taken to stop these profane and blasphemous phenomena. And who is silent, agrees.
The diocese of Vienna, led by Christoph Schönborn stood out 5 last October for the transformation of the Duomo into a nightclub. While in Graz the Bishop, Monsignor Wilhelm Krautwaschl, he took part in a fashion show showing off a white cassock on the catwalk, in front of the cameras of the anticlerical broadcaster Orf. The same diocese, some time ago, also awarded the lesbian photo «East meets West», then exposed, dal 28 last October, in the presbytery of the Vienna Cathedral, where the «Against Gravity» exhibition was set up, with the “works” of August M. Zoebl. From le “formative” photography, a Pietà is worth mentioning (very painful!) which portrays a topless model with her abdomen covered by a dress, ideally recalling the statue of Michelangelo. This is the caption of the photo: «explosive images that serve to communicate the unprecedented message of the resurrection». The infusta roundup continues in its brazen blasphemy and lo and behold, Therefore, «West meets East», which portrays two women kissing and which should represent a guardian angel and a sphinx…
Where Giorgia has now performed, there had been Ildefonso Schuster O.S.B., Archbishop of Milan since 1929 al 1954, Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church, proclaimed Blessed by John Paul II II 12 maggio 1996. In the Cathedral he proceeded weightlessly, a soul nourished with hosts, the celestial face, the diaphanous mani, who came to pray under vestments of silk and gold – he lived in poverty and wore precious fabrics for God, just as saints such as Archbishop Carlo Borromeo had done, the Curate of Ars, Saint Francis de Sales, Saint John Bosco… – the hieratic and monastic presence that instilled in souls the certainty that in that Shepherd there was Christ living in him.
The choreographer Pier Luigi Pizzi expresses himself in these terms:
«Bishops, deacons and clerics followed his majestic and charismatic gait, moving to the sound of the organ following a centuries-old choreography. Everything was solemn, the choirs, the enveloping coils of incense, the passage of time. I couldn't detach myself from the ancient theatricality of those rituals. My mother, if he had any errands to run, he left me alone sitting on my bench, sure that I wouldn't have moved for any reason in the world, amazed that I could sit still and silent for hours, I who was so restless and impatient. Solemn functions, sumptuous processions, ancient theatricality. This was the image of the Church that I knew and which had the power to enchant me»[3].
The Cathedral of Milan, like other cathedrals and churches, have become prestigious "location” (cinematic term) of worldliness and vainglory, without respect for the Holy Trinity, without fear of God. Meanwhile, photos and videos of the girl were bouncing around on Instagram performance giorgiana. However, the Cathedral continues to be a Cathedral and not "location“, as well as other cathedrals and churches stormed by thieves of sacred beauty, chasing fame, luster and economic affairs.
Kierkegaard thought that the Church of Rome was a sham, as well as all Protestants, followers of the heresiarchs Pietro Valdo, Martin Luther, John Calvin, of the Anglican sovereigns and theologians and of the various and multiple sects that formed and spread from here with their predatory tentacles. Today the men who are in power in the dioceses, including that of Rome, who have betrayed the identity and soul of the Church, they reduce churches to circuses and fashion catwalks reminiscent of Fellini, ridiculing themselves as laughingstocks without dignity and spiritually impoverishing everyone, believers or non-believers.

  • Ah,be, I remember very well and have a photograph of when the previous pseudo-bishop of Milan, he introduced, for the “migrant day”, many young Filipino and Asian dancers dancing…Dove? In the Cathedral, Obviously ! So much for female modesty and discretion…But when do they ever realize the tackiness of such demonstrations ?

  • They can't realize it , because when you stray from the right path , we move away from reason. All heresies lead to madness.
