Yikes! Transgender/Homosexual Catechism Cover Salesians Fathers
Loosely translated from the original Italian
A new Catechism for children of Salesian editions shows a couple of men with children on the cover. And the Jesus depicted is in the image of Conchita Wurst. The web arises and attacks the aid of being homoeretic. Innocent coincidences or obsessions? Definitely a slide, which also involves the authors themselves, responsible for the catechumenate service of the diocese of Turin. The same as the course on the gay loyalty of Don Carrega.
The editions of the Elderly Salesians have recently given new prints for the catechism of young people. The notebook with the cards has aroused the amazement of many on the web that have rebounded the two cover images, the first and the fourth. Let's see why.
Let's start from the front cover. Jesus is depicted in the center and is the "photocopy" of Conchita Wurst. Surely no one when he thought of depicting in such a way the Lord Jesus thought of the well-known Austrian transsexual chronicles. However, if you type your name on
google and compare it with that of Jesus in the catechism, you will not be able to remain dazzled by the extraordinary resemblance.
The choice of the characters alongside Jesus is curious : there is the grandmother with the two grandchildren and on the other side there is a mother with her children, one is colored because the politically correct is always there. And behind them there is a lanky guy who claps his hands like a fru fru and that from the collar and the vertical buttons on the black suit clearly appears as a priest. A priest with a trendy jacket. Oh well, it is the times, it is not that we should also formalize too much for the images accompanying the catechisms: the important thing is that the content inside is healthy and rightly consistent with the doctrine.
But then you turn the subsidy and meet the back cover . And here, we realize that the stylistic critiques of first pass in second order. And we understand how the web has revolted.
There are two men looking towards the horizon on an unidentified spot and in the background appears a small village with the church. Two children are clinging to the first, a distinguished gentleman, almost dandy, with a striped jacket that would force the Polstrada at least to a check. But there is another man behind him. More casual, with John Lennon goggles and pink sweater. Long curly hair and an intellectual beard.
"I'm a homosexual couple with children", comments are wasted. "No, impossible, it will be the grandfather", someone replies. "But what grandfather? He does not have white hair, those are two gays ". We could stay here for hours and hours, but then, sharpening the view, we realize that the young man with the pink sweater has his left arm in the direction of the side of the gentleman in front.
How are things? You should ask the authors of the book, but perhaps they will reply that it is not up to them to decide the covers of the books. Then you could go and trace the designer, but this, sought by the New BQ did not respond.
We remain so suspended, with the distinct feeling that something underneath there is, also because with all the possible iconographies to represent the faithful who are looking for Jesus, this is really the most daring and the one that lends itself to the most daring dietrologies at least. ..
A homoeretic cover in the catechism for children? We know well that now in the Church we can do this and much more, so what amazement? Especially since, it turns out, the authors are direct emanation of the Diocese of Turin. The book is written by Monica Cusino and by Don Andrea Fontana. The second is none other than the head of the "diocesan service for the catechumenate", the first is a collaborator so much that appears on the site of the diocese as a member of the team, then a collaborator of the Diocese. The same diocese jumped to the headlines for the case of Don Carrega and the loyalty course for the LGBT Christians.
Omoeresia or not, definitely a slip. On which the popular sentiment has flung with sincerity and a hint of irritation. It may be that these bacchettoni are simply obsessed and see homosexuals everywhere. But if the diocese gives the green light to Catholic publishers of such explicit images, it is certainly not possible to blame them for so much malice. Also because we are not facing a subliminal image. A pink sweater is still a clear clue ...
