THE NEW "DIGNITY" OF THE OLD CATHEDRAL
NOR has linked an interesting story on the old Los Angeles Cathedral, St. Vibiana's.
Canon Law requires that former churches be sold to those who would use it for a dignified purpose. St. Vibiana's was sold to an arts organization. Today the church is being used for a fashion show that presents racy clothing fashioned to sell sex. Another show held at the former cathedral was a dance that involved "barely clad men and women" and which "emphasizes the erotic". Nice use for a former cathedral that still looks like a church in the picture at the website.
Meanwhile Los Angeles Catholics got the concrete box and are expected to be happy with it.
