The Archdiocese of Vienna warned of a demonstration of the crown disguised as a “Christian procession” in Vienna on Sunday and condemned this project as an abuse of religious freedom. The church is responding to calls on the Internet, as explained by Archdiocese of Vienna spokesman Michael Prüller in an interview with Kathpress on Sunday.
Consequently, organizers of the banned crown demonstrations in central Vienna on Sunday attempted to circumvent the ban by disguising it as a “Christian procession.” “This is original, but it is still a clear abuse of religion and religious freedom,” Prüller explained, emphasizing: “Even with religious accessories, a demonstration does not become a procession, but remains a demonstration. Catholics should not participate. of this fraudulent label. “
The call for the pseudo-religious event was made on Saturday through social networks and in the vicinity of demonstrations of the crown that were not approved by the authorities. As the police announced on Friday, 17 meetings had been reported over the weekend. Most of these were demonstrations against the measures of the crown. As a result, the Vienna State Police Directorate, as the authority of the assembly, banned 15 of the reported rallies for the purpose of “keeping the main dangers to public health behind.”
At one of these forbidden rallies, FPÖ club president Herbert Kickl should have given a speech. A demonstration against the FPÖ’s planned demonstration ban in response to the ban was also officially banned on Saturday. As a result, a pseudo procession was called on Sunday in the center of Vienna on social media. (Apa)
