The Diözese Augsburg forbade the appearance of Islamic, buddhistischer and hinduistischer dance and groups of music in a catholic church on the occasion of a inter+religious music celebration: „We cannot permit that other religion in our churches arise. “

(kreuz.net/SISA, Marktoberdorf) with the festival of religious music „Musica Sacra “in the Bavarian municipality market upper village Islamic, buddhistische and hinduistische ensembles may not arise in the future to no more in catholic churches. This communicated the Pressestelle of the Diözese Augsburg in the Karwoche. Market upper village lies approximately 100 kilometers southwest of Munich.

The festival „Musica Sacra “with approximately fifteen music and groups of dances from the large world religions takes place since 1992 every two years in the Ostallgäu. The Allgäu is a landscape in the south of the Bavarian governmental district Swabians.

The instruction to the ministers is theologically justified: „With the festival it goes not alone around the music, but also around religious contents. This can become not certified in the churches, where humans step into contact with God, “, explained the bischöfliche press spokesman, Christian OF Goldt.

„We welcome the commitment of `Musica sacra', cannot however not permit that other religions would drive their music and dances in our churches. “

The festival is welcomed of the Diözese and good-been called as contribution for the people communication. Also against concerts in Pfarrsälen or other areas of the church municipalities one does not have to object anything, meant the press spokesman: „However the rites of other religions in our churches, does not fit simply. “

Orthodox and Jewish ensembles are expressly exceptional of the spell saying.

The next inter+religious meeting is set for Whitsuntide 2006. So far all ensembles in the churches were allowed to arise. To give for the conclusion concert of the next festival in its church a special permission the Diözesanleitung rejected the request of the local minister.

Marcel: Good word

… of you both; and also particularly of P. Clérissac!

The gentleman ensures for it that the Rechtgläubigen never becomes extinct in its church, even if its number on (of hl. Athanasius) admitted to be reduced „little handful “.

Athanasius: Qui veut…

„Qui veut vraiment appartenir à la Saint Eglise Catholique devait souffrir, pas seulement pour inch, corn avant tout par inch! “

Pater Clérissac OI

(Who wants to belong truthfully to the holy catholic church, not only it must suffer! for her, but above all dúrch)

mrnka: Multikulti

In the church (nearly) each point of view and each opinion are tolerated. Exception: Traditionalist. Those work as the bad conscience (case at all still available) of the spirit of the time catholics.

Marcel: Direction well, one is missing however still…

Good in principle decision, however is missing some more:

Orthodox and Jewish ensembles are expressly exceptional of the spell saying.
… unfortunately however music and dance and prayer and priest and groups of measuring celebration all times of the catholic, of the papal Kommision for internal-church affairs Ecclesia Dei did not care for priest brother shank pc. Pius X…

This unfortunately more badly treated of the office church than actual schismatische orthodox communities or the new federation ablehendene Jewish.

But who Christ successor is, must suffer. Outside of and within the church. That must endure we all with much prayer and victim, and us of remind that it the supporters hl. Athanasius differently was not issued.
To the well-being the one, holy, apostolschen, catholic church.
