Antiprocesiones ...........................
Les covers the time. A slipstream of the protests of labeling as anticapillas movement, which in recent weeks has turned the universities, are already preparing atheistic processions. And at the forefront of all, the Lavapies. In this neighborhood of Madrid, the birthplace of the so-called alternative culture, will leave on Holy Thursday The first procession atheist (around 19:30), coinciding with the departure of the procession of the Nazarene or the Poor of Jesus del Gran Poder.
" be something much more playful, imitate some of the elements of Catholic processions but with another approach. Criticism be in steps," says Luis Vega, an aeronautical engineer and president of the Madrid Association of Atheists and Freethinkers ( AMAL), one of the groups directly involved in the organization.
His ordeal in no particular appeal to the Bible. It's over now. AMAL atheists take two steps "to current tight" they say. One of they have christened Attacks childhood, the other is named struggle reason. The first step, drywall built in the style of a failure, represents a priest and to children who slip through the priest's cassock ajar.
" is a very graphic nod to cases of pedophilia that have come to light ," says Luis. The other sculpture, which refers to atheism and belief, simulates a Muslim kneeling on him a Christian and a Jew above it. The three in prayer position.
- Many faithful, mostly Catholics, understand that it is a provocation and a offense .. .
- sure we will rain down criticism from various sectors of society. There is a kind of reconquest of the Church, as if everything was dangerous secular.
"Let me insist on what the provocation ...
- We are aware that there may even be some organized plan against us. But I hope that nothing happens. On the one hand, our intention is to make a criticism of the Catholic Church, especially because in Spain is the most religious institution still rules, and all other faiths. On the other hand, we are against that address public spaces by religious institutions also receive money from taxpayers who do not profess any religion. And this we are preparing is just a protest against some of the atrocities that have happened and are still occurring with impunity.
The atmosphere could heat up even more. And certainly it would contribute the names given (all in bad taste) to the clerical steps shuffled by other associations who have signed up to organize the procession under atheistic Madrid.
For example, the Brotherhood of the Holy Pedophilia (make reference to the abuse of certain priests ...); the Brotherhood of the Holy Larceny Pope (impact the use of money by the Church and, in general, to the wealth of the institution), or Cruel Congregation of the Inquisition (criticize, among other things, the condemnation of condoms or homosexuality).
"We to punish the Catholic conscience ... Our purpose is to harm, or harm the people ideology."
are the words spoken letter by letter, by Santiago Ochoa, Atheists face Fighting, other associations with AMAL (in 2009 became known for bringing the bus atheist Madrid legend.
" Probably no God. Stop worrying and enjoy life "Initiative to promote a secular state) and the so-called LavapiƩs Beach participates in the assembly of this performance, which began a month ago. The air got ELA Radio, a station in Madrid, cutting alternative, which is defined as "self-managed and free."
That day (March 23), Santiago Ochoa said further: " We assumed that the procession is a component of offense ... is inevitable." It will not saints or virgins or other images to use. The steps of cardboard will be boosted by improvised bearers, which will be accompanied by bands rap and batucadas during the tour.
The last time atheist procession went out was in Vitoria in 1984. And the White Lady, patroness of the city, the primary objective of obscenities. The police broke up the procession and the posters that advertised were removed. There was a prisoner.
While Madrid is advanced in terms of preparation, in other parts of Spain (Galicia, Basque Country, Valencia ...) groups of college students who have supported the closure of chapels in the universities, associations neighbors and organizations that preach a state with no ties to any religious creed, outlining their own processions would be atheists.
Luis Vega, who also collaborate in the realization of Lavapies, is at street level, reveals that shall wear Merlin, the magician of the story, while others will do priests, nuns, demons or played with the classic crown.
" really could be a spring festival, fun and at the same time serve complaint," says Vega, who said he expected the participation of Leo Bassi
- "I know him well long " , he says, who has personally invited.
The presence of the controversial comic would add fuel to the environment. Bassi, whose shows on topics of current social policy and have provided harsh criticism [that have banned the entry to the prestigious Anne Tyler Hall of Lincoln Center in New York, after eating a shit on stage], has been accused of "crimes against religious feelings." It was because of a skit in the auditorium of the University castellana (October 6, 2010) in which the Pope and consecrated wore condoms then threw to the crowd from the stage.
In Lavapies allowed the promoters of the idea, and only some details remain to be resolved. One of them, decisive, is the permission.
" I do not know if people know but the Church has never sought permission from the authorities, whether in a village or town, to leave to the streets in procession. Both sides take it for fact, no more ... "says Vega annoying.
" However, we do we have adhered to the law and have asked for a permit from the Government Office. We comply with the law. We have proposed two rounds and now he plays is expected. We'll see what happens. .. ".
