Gavin Ashenden commented: “They could write their own text and their own music, but perversity is never very creative, and in any case we now know that the great delight taken by the cultural revolution is in blaspheming and perverting beauty and holiness, so of course they would make a beeline for Handel‘s Messiah. “The exquisite beauty of the music and the sacred resonance of the text are ideal material for blasphemy and perversion if that is your primary motivation. The careful cosmetic choice of words suggesting that the crusade for sexualised hedonism is more inclusive than the love of God for broken people is a triumph of propaganda over truth. “Such language is used to try and deflate the voice of protest in the name of outraged Love. Those who love God and the beauty of His rescue mission, which Messiah so poignantly captures, should indeed protest, expressing pain, distress, and disgust at one more episode of degradation by a decadent culture.”
Another nation opting to be blown up by Russian bombs through its choice to mock the Lord God of heaven and earth and the King of all. Both Poland, with its legalizing abortion, and now Britain with this blasphemy are putting the Lord to the test - such arrogance and insolence - Do not expect the King of Kings to protect you - when you have mocked and rejected Him.
@DrMaria, In fact brittons officials, the protestants are mocking God and His holy Church since the time of their king Tudor the Fornicator. Which is about 500 years, which is a very long time. Nunc omnis culmen attingit.
