Ist denn die Kirche nach Mekka ausgerichtet?

Glaube nicht, dass die Teppiche nach islamsichen Verständnis im rechten Winkel zur Mauer liegen dürfen. Es wäre ein großer Zufall, wenn die Kirche genau in der islamischen Gebetsrichtung gebaut wäre.

Wer das macht hat weder von Christentum, noch vom Islam eine Ahnung.

In ongoing Venice Biennale, unbeknownst to the Patriarchate, a Catholic church was converted into a mosque (see Venice Biennale: Mosque installed in the church - "Invitation to Islamists to Conquer" ). During the Patriarchate protested with explanations, the Catholic art historian Alessandro Tamburini, professor at the Institute of Religious Studies, engaged in a far more efficient sign of protest.

The tax-financed "artwork", a contribution from the Republic of Iceland to the art exhibition, has been used since then by the Muslims of the area as a mosque. Moreover, Muslims have usurped the church and "artwork" and taken control of the building.

The "interaction" is welcomed as an "invitation to dialogue" by the Swiss artist and the Icelandic Minister of Culture. Neither the state nor the Scandinavian artist has expressed a word of apology or regret for the profanation of the Catholic Church of Santa Maria della Misericordia - Catholic churches are in contrast to Islamic mosques consecrated places. The Catholic Church seems to have a fictional duty which is put forward as a matter of course, that it does not even need a mention.

The Patriarchate raised strong protest against the abuse. The fact that the church has been privately owned since the 1970s, complicates matters and limits the intervention of the competent diocese.
