Magazine desecrates Our Lady of Czestochowa!

This infuriates me to no end! The magazine Machina decides to desecrate the most venerated of Polish icons by printing an image of none other than pop singer Madonna's face imposed over that of our Holy Mother, and the face of one of her children over that of the infant Christ.

Thank god, the Polish people are not taking this lightly. How dare they trash the rich religious and cultural heritage of Poland like that!

The icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa holds a special place in the hearts of all Polish people. Tradition even has it that it was St. Luke the Evangelist who created this wonderful image. Not to mention many miracles have been attributed to it.

I urge all Catholics to stand by their Polish brothers and sisters in protesting this outrageous act. And by protest, of course, I mean in constructive ways; for any potential smart-arses who might accuse me of being a hypocrite with my post "Why can't Muslims take a joke?".
