St. Hubertus Mass Sparks Controversy Over Hunting Glorification
The upcoming St. Hubertus Mass in Beckenried's Catholic Church has sparked controversy. The event, set for November 2nd at 9:00 a.m., is criticized by the IG Wild beim Wild for its glorification of hunting and violence. The group urges church representatives to distance themselves from such masses.
The St. Hubertus Mass, traditionally held to bless hunters, is now under scrutiny. The IG Wild beim Wild argues that these events do not align with Christian ethics of respect for life. They criticize the celebration of hunting, which they claim can lead to increased wild animal populations due to earlier sexual maturity in females.
The Hubertus legend, which teaches harmony and peace between humans and nature, is misinterpreted at these masses. Instead of promoting protection and friendship, they mark the start of cruel drives and special hunts, resulting in the deaths of countless wild animals. The IG Wild beim Wild appeals to churches to advocate for creation preservation, not hunting.
The upcoming St. Hubertus Mass in Beckenried has raised concerns. Critics argue it sends the wrong message about hunting and violence. The IG Wild beim Wild urges church representatives to reconsider their support for such events. The true spirit of the Hubertus legend, promoting harmony and peace with nature, is lost in these masses.
