The Gala is simply proof of Hollywood’s hypocrisy.

If anyone one did this with Islam, Judaism, Asian Culture, African Culture, Native America culture, etc; the left would be screaming “cultural appropriation,” “cultural insensitivity,” etc.

It’s just proof that in the minds of the elite left, that’s it’s still OK to mock the Catholic Church.

NOW: I can understand why the Vatican gave the vestments to the Met for their display. But where was Cardinal Dolan’s PR person? The Archdiocese of New York should have known that the Gala would have turned into a PR nightmare for him and the Catholic Church.

Also, the Archdiocese of New York really needs to distance itself more from America Magazine, which I’m not surprised they were strongly support this, since that Magazine is the flagship of the Americanism Heresy.

God Bless.

Among other things of questionable orthodoxy.

I only give America Mag slightly more credence than National “catholic Reporter.”

“Instead, the quest for accommodation seems to encourage moderns to divide their sense of what Catholicism represents in two — into an Old Church that’s frightening and fascinating in equal measure, and a New Church that’s a little more liked but much more easily ignored.”
 
There was some very, very immodestly dressed women. What a shame.
 
Would Catholics wear any of those dresses in a Catholic Church around actual clergy? Other than Kate Bosworth’s and Priyanka Chopra’s, maybe the Joan of Arc costume? If you wouldn’t as a Catholic dare wear those around clergy, its not “Catholic”. None of us ladies are gonna have our breasts pouring out or dress slits up to there. And that “Confessional” outfit was just blasphemous.

Another poster who was defending this said that another museum showcased Muslim fashion. So, I checked out some pics from that. All Muslim women dressed like they were going to the mosque. Not the same…at all! Sick of the double standard. Its cowardly.

i didn’t see anything inappropriate about the Joan of Arc dress. it was done in good taste. i am not sure what chance she will have to wear it anywhere else though.
St. Joan is one of my favorite saints.
 
It’s a costume. Not a dress you would wear anywhere except for a themed event. Not really sure it looks enough like anything to evoke that particular Saint either, IMHO.
 
Oh, you are really missing out then on some real “Catholic fashion.” :roll_eyes:

i thought it was a good replica of the type of armor St. Joan is often shown wearing, but cleverly designed into an evening gown. Even her hairstyle was subdued and not
flashy or formal.
 
The whole thing was a mockery.

Some author today, pardon me for not remembering, said it was about “sexualizing the sacred”.

It really seems to have been like one of those flamboyant gay parades with costumes.

I just don’t understand the point of any of it. Was the gala meant to be a costume party?
