With unusual violence, Gniezno Archbishop Wojciech Polak, 54, the Primate of Poland, described the Lenten burning of trashy literature and pagan objects in a Gdańsk parish as "unfortunate" and even "offensive."
But Father Stanisław Małkowski, 74, a known freedom fighter during Communism, declared that the burning merits approval and praise.
He added that Archbishop Polak is known for "strange" statements by which he has relativized the truth and the good.
For Małkowski, the archbishop has neither an outstanding intelligence nor a consistent Faith:
"We had several Primates in our history. The exercise of this important function is not yet an indication that the actions of the one who holds this office are correct."

Poland too is making its way to the dogs.

.....far better to burn them now - than to be burned with them later.......

The zealousness with which this archbishop condemns true Catholic priests shows how much he cares about winning for himself cardinal purple.

He is the one who said he will punish all priests who do not respect Allah and Muslims coming to Poland with their religion.

Are the Arthurian legends also trashy literature because of Merlin the Magician?

It was burning of Harry Potter books
Harry Potter is a series of fantasy novels written by British author J. K. Rowling. The novels chronicle the lives of a young wizard, Harry Potter, and his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, all of whom are students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The big question is why devout Catholics had trashy literature and pagan religious idols in the first place.

@Lalanz >>Christ on a number occasions, made reference to the difference between the way man viewed things and the way God viewed things, ergo, it follows that we should be cautious in making dogmatic statements such as ".....not the fake versions......" Lucia herself, informed Pope John Paul that his second consecration was acceptable to Heaven. In her words, " Yes it has been done as Our Lady asked, -Letter of 8 November 1989- She went on to say, " Hence any further discussion or request is without basis." [cite, " Fatima in Lucia's own words".] In respect to Fr. Gruner [ R.I.P.] he died unreconciled with the Church. One last comment, Russia is, by any measure we might apply, one of the most Christianized, countries in the world. ' '

This man needs to be excommunicated. Anybody who slams people for burning witchcraft is no longer a Catholic, but a wizard 🧙♂ dressed as a cardinal...

These items are witchcraft and pagan. The priest and his flock are Catholic. The items burned were the property of the ones burning them. What's the problem ??
I would like to hear the primate's "discussion" on the Harry Potter series and how it has affected young and old Catholics.
Wow, some people are so courageous when it comes to defending situations that seem not "politically correct"
I hope …More
