News / Demonstrations in Poland in defence of democracy. [2554]

KOD demo Wroclaw.
I doubt there were many more than 3,000 in attendance. The event lasted about an hour and seemed to be all about nothing. Chanting slogans, waving flags and not much else. Pretty much a waste of time. A small, peaceful crowd in a town square has no power to do anything.

I believe so.


Why would I ?

Those taking part were easily recognizable as they were wearing the obligatory KOD sticker.

Some young, but most were middle aged.

Look for the KOD page on facebook. This will give you the Polish perspective.

It is fair to say that here in Wroclaw passers-by were exactly that.... passers-by. As well as the fact that those in Rynek, which adjoins Plac Solny, didn't seem interested. Not all of them were uninterested tourists. Judging by the numbers I would suggest that most of those taking part live local to the event. There is a lot of grey hair in those photos..... certainly the ones I took. Where were the militant youth ?

I would like this action to succeed, but without the numbers nothing is likely to change.

History / Why is the Diary of Saint Sister Faustina Kowalska still unknown to Polonia and other countries? [29]

i know plenty about her. However, i doubt that most Polish folk are aware that the image of Christ with the shafts of red and blue light, are down to Faustina. An image that can be seen every day.

History / Why is the Diary of Saint Sister Faustina Kowalska still unknown to Polonia and other countries? [29]

The image in the painting may be associated more with the artist or its title more than Faustina, who first saw it in her mind.

Divine Mercy and Saint Faustina are spoken about.... Some churchgoers will be able to give you a good biography....
