Cardinal Müller: Linz Obscenity Advertises Feminism, Violates Decency and the Faith
Cardinal Gerhard Müller condemns the "instrumentalisation of Mary for the demonstration of feminist ideologies", as in the case of the beheaded obscenity in the Cathedral of Linz in Austria, he writes on Kath.net (3 July).
He explains that art as a means of piety must correspond to the faith of the Incarnation, including "the truth that Mary was and remained a virgin before, during and after the birth of Jesus".
Art should strengthen faith but not lead to immorality. According to the Cardinal, the Linz obscenity is about the depiction of erotic and sexual fantasies.
It is an "advertisement for feminist ideology that violates the natural sense of shame".
Cardinal Müller adds that this "cannot be countered pseudo-enlightened with the accusation of prudery or as an outgrowth of an ultra-conservative attitude".
The sculptor Theresa Limberger has reacted with stubborness and announced that she will restore the obscenity exactly as it was before.
