SSPX disrupts service in Buenos Aires cathedral commemorating Kristallnacht
CWN - November 13, 2013
Protesters from a Catholic traditionalist group disrupted an inter-faith service in Buenos Aires marking the anniversary of Kristallnacht on November 12.
The disrupters, who were affiliated with the Society of St. Pius X, drowned out the leaders of the cathedral service by shouting Catholic prayers, and distributing leaflets protesting the use of the cathedral by "followers of false gods," before eventually being escorted out by police.
The ceremony, an annual event in Buenos Aires, promotes religious harmony between Christians and Jews. The service was led by Archbishop Mario Poli, who succeeded Pope Francis as head of the Buenos Aires archdiocese, along with Rabbi Abraham Skorka, the Pope's personal friend and co-author.
