Paderborn Bishop Silent Amid International Scandal
An online petition entitled 'Against the desecration of Paderborn Cathedral: For the protection of our sacred sites' gained over 20,000 signatures within a few days.
The oligarchic media in Germany, such as Bild.de and Spiegel.de, as well as many alternative media outlets, have reported on it.
On Nius.de, Alexander Kissler spoke of the “final stage of a Church that shreds faith because it has lost it”.
He added: 'What are we to make of a Church that tolerates such a mindless, pointless and tasteless spectacle at the heart of a diocese, in the cathedral, between the altar, the cross and the tabernacle?'
Birgit Kelle notes on Exxpress.at that “nobody knows how it came about” and that alledgely “everyone was surprised”. It is still unclear “who came up with the idea that this performance group was suitable for any ceremony in a church”.
Alexander-Wallasch.de filed a criminal complaint for disturbing the practice of religion. The complaint states that the combination of undressed human bodies and dead chickens in diapers in the altar area is likely to seriously offend the religious sensibilities of the average believer.
The responsible Paderborn Archbishop Bentz, who was sitting in the first pew during the chicken ballet, still refuses to comment.
