Sometimes there really is "Nothing to see here, people."

Toulouse Archbishop Guy de Kerimel, France, has been seen wearing a Jewish yarmulke on the square of his cathedral (Medias-Press.info, December 1).
He was accompanied by Albi Archbishop Jean Mary Legrez, and Haïm Korsia, Chief Rabbi of France. The occasion for the performance is unknown.
Kerimel is known for persecuting the Mass, forbidding his seminarians to wear a cassock, and playing ball during his induction eucharist in Toulouse.

Tomorrow, a fez. The next day, saffron robes. The day after, a feathered serpent’s head.
Why not?
We should be happy he didn’t attend a la Drag Queen with a pink wig and fire-red lipstick. (Is that drague quine in French?)
Why don’t the Cdl. secure mental health treatment for this guy?
How is it known that it is not a zuchetto?
Does it have a Shield of David on it?
Why didn’t he just wear his zucchetto? It is almost indistinguishable from a Yarmulke.
Is traditional Catholicism a different religion than Catholicism?
Heck, he’s got the red cap what’s the problem with him.
Sometimes there really is "Nothing to see here, people."
It’s different than Frankenchurch, aka, the “synodal church”.
Sometimes a scull cap is just a scull cap.
And most of the time you’re mistaken.
Because the Catholic archbishops’ zuchettos are amaranth; not black.
The color of the zucchetto in Catholicism denotes the wearer’s rank:
the pope’s and pope emeritus’ zucchetto is white;
those worn by cardinals are scarlet;
those of archbishops, bishops, territorial abbots and territorial prelates are amaranth;
and regular abbots, priests and deacons wear a black zucchetto.
You believe the archbishop is making an interfaith statement?
(You would know better than I, for sure!)
Just seems weird.
Absolutely; it the rabbi reading from some prayerbook. And I doubt it’s a catholic prayerbook.
Ah, I see.
It is customary for non-Jews to wear kippot (yarmulke = ‘yireh malka’ = ‘fear of the king’) in Jewish contexts, such as in traditional synagogues or at the Western Wall. But even that is not agreed to by some Jewish authorities in traditional Jewish practice.
I can understand why it might be problematic for a suspected Catholic heretic to engage in the practice unnecessarily.
To completely change the subject, this archbishop of Albi — is that the same Albi that was the hotbed of those Albigensian heresies? Or is the name just coincidental?
