Desecration in Spain

    • Critics of Pamplona’s city council say it deliberately attacked Catholics and broke Spanish law by using city property to display a sacrilegious art exhibit with more than 240 stolen consecrated Hosts.

    The Spanish artist Abel Azcona stole more than 240 consecrated Hosts by pretending to receive Holy Communion at Mass. He then placed the hosts on the ground to form the word “Pederasty” in Spanish.

    Photos of the theft of the Hosts and their placement on the ground are shown in a public art gallery in Pamplona. The city council there is governed by a Basque separatist coalition called Bildu.

    My one consolation is that they may have been invalidly consecrated by a Novus Ordo priest, either through lack of Holy Orders, or through lack of intention to truly offer sacrifice.

    But even just symbolically, yeah, that's evil.

    • So, poche, I don't understand you.  One minute you're advocating religious freedom of expression and the next you're posting someone's desecration, without making any comment.  

    Are you trying to say that you appreciate this expression of the "artist" because he's exercising his right to religious liberty?  Or, are you only in favor of particular expressions of religious freedom?

    By the way, since you refer to this perpetrator as an "artist," do you think what he is doing is "art?"
