MANIPULATED PHOTOS OF MODERN CATHOLIC ARTS DISTORTED BY ENEMIES OF THE FAITH TO ATTACK THE CHURCH

 The Pope in Pain finds solace in the Image of the Suffering Messiah

The Pope manifests the Majesty of the Church

I'm sorry for my posting a comment which doesn't have direct connection
with this entry. But the smoke of Satan blew in the Catholic art too.


I should appreciate it if you would be patient enough to read my poor English.

This work of art actually depicts the Risen Christ towering over the tomb and rising to conquer the darkness. As He rises in triumph lights flows from His glowing body and dispels the darkness around Him. So we can see the glow of gold and the weakening black around the Risen Christ. It is not presented in full realism because it is our faith's glimpse of the Mystery of Resurrection. To present this work of art as if a demonic image is foul.

I THINK YOU HAVE FAILED TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE
CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN ART AND MODERN ART WHICH IS BASED ON EXTREME
EMOTIONS AND SURREALISM.

THE CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN ART IS BASED ON
REALISM SO THEY PRESENT HUMAN FACES AND EMOTIONS AS IF THEY ARE REAL.
BUT THE MODERN ART IS NOT THAT WAY. IT CONVEYS LESS COLORS AND MORE
EMOTIONS.

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THOSE WORKS OF ARTS WHAT
IS WRONG IS THE INTENTIONS OF THOSE WHO TRIED TO MANIPULATE THOSE IMAGES
TO DISTORT THINGS. FOR INSTANCE, THE STATUE OF PAUL VI CONVEYS THE
POPE'S PAIN AND BURDEN AS THE LEADER OF THE CHURCH DURING THE TIME WHEN
COMMUNISM WAS AT THE PEAK OF ITS POWER, THE SEXUAL REVOLUTIONS AND THE
RISE OF DRUG ADDICTIONS AND NUMEROUS PERSECUTIONS OF THE CHURCH IN THE
WORLD. INSTEAD, THEY DEMONIZE THE IMAGE.

THE PAUL VI HALL IS NOT A
HOUSE OF GOD. IT IS AN AUDITORIUM. THE IMAGE OF THE RISEN CHRIST AND
THE LIGHT THAT EMANATES AROUND HIM IS ORIGINALLY MADE OF LIGHTER COLOR
AND NOT THE DARKENED ONE LIKE THAT. THE USE OF DARKENED LIGHT IS VERY
DECEPTIVE. BECAUSE EVEN IF A HANDSOME GUY OR A BEAUTIFUL GIRL CAN LOOK
LIKE A VAMPIRE IF THE LIGHTINGS ON THEIR PICTURES OR THE SHADOWS SHALL
BE CHANGED OR DISTORTED. I'VE SEEN A PHOTO OF THE NOBLE AND MAGNIFICENT
SITTING STATUE OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN IN WASHINGTON TAKEN DURING THE NIGHT
WITH HALF OF IT ALMOST COVERED WITH DARKNESS, THE IMAGE LOOKED LIKE A
MONKEY. BUT OF COURSE, PRES. ABRAHAM LINCOLN - THE CHAMPION OF DEMOCRACY
AND LIBERTY IS A HANDSOME MAN AND HIS STATUE WAS BEAUTIFULLY MADE REALISTICALLY.

ALSO, IF WE WILL LOOK AT THE OLD ICONS OF CHRIST IN ST.
CATHERINE MONASTERY ON MT. SINAI THE ICON IF GIVEN A DARKER SHADOW COULD
APPEAR LIKE A BARBARIAN OR A TERRORIST. BUT WITH GOOD LIGHTING IT IS A
HANDSOME PANTOCRATOR. I SAW ALSO IMAGES OF THE BEAUTIFUL SCULPTURE OF
ST. JOHN MARIE VIANNEY MADE LONG BEFORE VATICAN II RIGHT THERE IN ARS.
THE BLESSED FACE OF THE CURE D'ARS LOOKED LIKE A SKELETON BECAUSE OF THE
DARK SHADOW. MY POINT IS: PHOTOS CAN BE MANIPULATED. EVEN GOOD WORKS OF
ARTS CAN BE INTERPRETED OTHERWISE. EVEN GOOD CHRISTIAN ARTS CAN BE
DEMONIZED BY PEOPLE WHOSE INTENTIONS ARE SINISTER SUCH AS TO DEFAME
PAUL VI AND VATICAN II.

LOOK AT THE PHOTOS OF POPE PIUS XII. HE
HAS A LOT OF PHOTOS WHICH LOOK LIKE A VAMPIRE. HE WAS LIKE CHRISTOPHER
LEE [THE FAMOUS DRACULA IN OLD HOLLYWOOD MOVIES] DRESSED AS A POPE. BUT
UNDER DIFFERENT ANGLE LOOK AT THE PICS THEY ARE MANIFESTATIONS OF HIS
ANGELIC FACE AND HIS DEEP SPIRITUALITY.

THE SHAPE OF PAUL VI HALL
FOR INSTANCE LOOKS LIKE A WAVE OF THE WATER TO ME BUT THEY INTERPRETED
IT AS THE EYE OF HORUS OR THE EYE OF MASONRY. THAT IS FOOLISH AND UNFAIR
BECAUSE THE FIGURE BELOW THE WAVE IS NOT ROUND LIKE THE HUMAN EYEBALL.
IT IS NOT EVEN POINTED LIKE THE HUMAN EYE BUT MORE LIKE A ROUNDED
CYLINDER. THE INTERPRETER IN THAT SITE THINKS LIKE DAN BROWN WHO SEES A
PHALLIC FIGURE IN ALMOST EVERY POINTED OBJECT AND HE SEES A CHALICE IN A
SPACE BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE WHO DENTED ON THE OTHER SIDE.

The Paul VI Auditorium from the top. It shows a building with its head flowing like a river in blue. The circle like figure at the side doesn't look like an ey of Horus at all or the eye of Masonry. No, no, no... That hole looks more like a white Sun-flower than a human eye.

I
PERSONALLY DOES NOT LIKE MODERN ART AND I PERSONALLY DO NOT LIKE THAT
RESURRECTION ART IN PAUL VI HALL. BUT TO INTERPRET IT DEMONICALLY IS
UNCALLED FOR AND AN ACT OF INJUSTICE TO THE POPE WHO CHAMPIONED THE
GOSPEL OF LIFE AMIDST STRONG OPPOSITION FROM ALL SIDE.

THE PAPAL STAFF USED BY POPE PAUL VI UP TO POPE BENEDICT XVI DEPICTS A CROSS WHICH SHOWS THE LORD HANGING ON THE CROSS BEARING THE PAINS AND SORROWS OF HUMANITY... HE WAS A BROKEN LAMB WHO ATONED FOR OUR SINS. BUT INSTEAD OF LOOKING AT IT SEEING THE GREAT SACRIFICE OF THE REDEEMER THEY REJECT IT BECAUSE THE PREFERRED THE GOLDEN STAFF USED BY THE EARLIER POPES WHICH ARE NOW BEING REVIVED BY POPE BENEDICT XVI [see picture above of Pope Benedict holding a large golden cross]. IT WAS A LARGE CROSS OF GOLD IN CLASSICAL STYLE BUT THERE IS NO 'CORPUS' OF THE REDEEMER. I PREFER THE SHEPHERD'S STAFF OF POPE MONTINI-WOJTYLA. IT REMINDS ME MORE OF THE LAMB OF GOD WHO DIED FOR MY SALVATION [see the pic of Blessed John Paul the Great leaning of his Staff with the Crucified Lord].

THROUGHOUT
THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH THE USE OF ART VARIES FROM ONE GENERATION TO
THE NEXT. THE POPE SIMPLY ALLOWED THE MODERN ARTISTS TO USE THEIR TALENT
AND THE STYLE COMMON TO THAT PARTICULAR ERA. I REJECT THE MALICIOUS
INTERPRETATIONS MADE BY THE AUTHORS OF THAT SITE. IF EVER THE SMOKE OF SATAN ENTERED SOMEWHERE IT IS IN THEIR MINDS AND THEIR JUDGMENTS, NOT IN THE CHURCH. O NO, NOT AT ALL.
