Things in Motion Tend to Stay in Motion
.-
A diocese in southern China expressed disappointment Wednesday
regarding a patriotic light-show that had been projected on the remains
of a famous Catholic church.
For three consecutive nights beginning Sept. 29, the Macau Government Tourism Office projected government principles and symbols onto the Ruins of St. Paul’s, located at Freguesia de Santo António on the western side of the Macau peninsula.
The event was named the “Glorious Splendor in Celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Republic of China.” It projected pro-government statements, including Macau’s integration into China 20 years ago, and Chinese symbols, such as the country’s flag.
Boy, I bet the Pope is angry about this! Oh...wait...
