Austrian Bishop Hangs Banner of Nude Trans Activist Over Main Altar for Lent

The model's Instagram account shows many equivocal pictures of trans men, tortured faces, and homosexuals kissing, as well as a post about how abortion is a 'sacral' act

(LifeSiteNews) – The Catholic bishop of Innsbruck, Austria, inaugurated a “Lenten” decoration of the main altar of the historic University church of Saint John Nepomuk, a baroque jewel from the early 18th century. The “decoration” shows an enlarged partial inverted photograph of a naked young man with scars and tattoos lying on a bed and has been placed as an altarpiece above the tabernacle of the former main altar of the church. The piece of contemporary art by Carmen Brucic was specially chosen by Bishop Hermann Glettler, and bears the title: “Tired.”

Bishop Glettler has campaigned for the blessing of same-sex couples in the past (more on that later).

In itself, the more-than-life-size picture (4.5 by 3 meters) is completely incongruous over an altar because it has no religious meaning. But the picture of this nude young man lying on his back in an exhausted attitude, barely missing the display of his genitalia, is doubly scandalous. Besides its obvious indecency in such a setting, it portrays a prominent figure of the “queer” scene in Tbilisi, thus openly glorifying a “gay” activist from Georgia whose image will remain over the tabernacle holding the Real Presence of Our Lord in the Eucharist until the end of Lent.

There is a direct correlation between the timeline of when evil began infiltrating the churches, and when every other major cultural institution, which used to promote Christianity throughout the millenia, began denigrating it instead.

Real Catholic men would know what to do about this.

Are there any left in Austria?

Post-coital (sodomistic) fatigue?

2 Kings, Chapter 21

6 He [Manasseh] did much evil in the LORD’s sight and provoked him to anger.

7 The Asherah idol he had made, he placed in the LORD’s house, of which the LORD had said to David and to his son Solomon: In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I shall set my name forever.c

8 I will no longer make Israel step out of the land I gave their ancestors, provided that they are careful to observe all I have commanded them and the entire law which Moses my servant enjoined upon them.

9 But they did not listen. Manasseh misled them into doing even greater evil than the nations the LORD had destroyed at the coming of the Israelites.

10 Then the LORD spoke through his servants the prophets:

11 “Because Manasseh, king of Judah, has practiced these abominations, and has done greater evil than all that was done by the Amorites before him, and has led Judah into sin by his idols,d

12 therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: I am about to bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that, when any hear of it, their ears shall ring:

13 I will measure Jerusalem with the same cord as I did Samaria, and with the plummet I used for the house of Ahab. I will wipe Jerusalem clean as one wipes a dish, wiping it inside and out.e

14 I will cast off the survivors of my inheritance. I will deliver them into enemy hands, to become prey and booty for all their enemies,

15 because they have done what is evil in my sight and provoked me from the day their ancestors came forth from Egypt until this very day.”

Stuff the picture in a bucket of urine, and you’ll be fine...

Is there any thought with these ghouls that there will be no accountability?

Blasphemous heretics.
