The Merle is mocking the fact that nurseries are taking place in public without anyone find fault. There are a lot of vertices that are occupied by crosses, it annoys some people. There are unbearable, real horrors, others support many ex-votos. Sometimes, nature has reasserted itself, not a heap of cement. These crosses are permanently installed.
few months ago, a guide Mountain Township Gruyere became known as "cross sawyer. Switzerland was in a controversy over minarets ... The initiative has generated a lot of comments, it is easy to imagine. One remembers the installation at the entrance of the Canton of Fribourg on the A9 a cross regarded as particularly dangerous, believers risk of releasing the steering wheel to sign atheists to send him an arm honor! Despite some physical attacks (sawing, fire ...), it is still in place. Another regret more advertising in public space and expresses the wish to see disappear: "That pub remains inside the temple of the god money!"
This is of course an opportunity for others to denounce the despicable act of terrorism while these crosses were erected on the backs of men and erected by people of faith . Reminds me of a friend who rode a Solex top Pic du Midi d'Ossau. The motorbikes had been sealed with cement, which had not prevented its destruction. " Believers do not have to appropriate the mountains, nature belongs to itself " noted another. Nature tends not to belong to himself by these days ... It also mentions that another commentator referring to the ski lifts, snowmobiles, "a cross pollutes less visually a mechanical lift. He replies that a chairlift does not convey a mode of thought !
The crosses are useful advance another: as hangers for the picnic . The gesture of the mountain guide gives ideas such as dismantling the pyramids or the Buddhist Chorten. Alas, this has already been done: the giant Buddhas destroyed by Taliban Bpamiyân.
These crosses seem relatively recent s. Certainly, those that Charles VIII erected Mont Aiguille have been in the fifteenth century, but most date from the twentieth. Denise Sonney distinguished five types: the cross " mission," erected on the occasion of a retreat by the faithful, the Cross " tribute" honoring the disappeared, the cross " brotherhood" that celebrate a group (eg Scouts) and finally the cross " protective . The builders have weakened somewhat but have not given up. A foundation Cross peaks was born in 1993 headed by a former soldier, a staunch Catholic, has to its credit facility with a cross on the highest point Bernese Alps (4,274 meters) and some other high peaks. The most surprising is that the common willingly give their permission. Mobile phone masts and creates more of oppositions.
