The Rave(s) in the Nave (of a formerly Catholic Cathedral)
As an Anglican woman “bishop” joins the high level Vatican Conference of Cardinals this week, thereby indicating that leaders of the Catholic Church are now allowing that church to have influence in Catholic discussion and policy formation, the same Church is to allow Canterbury Cathedral to be used for a “silent disco” this evening and tomorrow.
You can read all about the background, type of music/musicians and reaction to the sacrilege at the locations below:

Canterbury hasn't been a Catholic Cathedral for close to five centuries.

Canterbury hasn't been a Catholic Cathedral for close to five centuries. I rather hope that most readers are aware that the English nation's established state church, whose supreme governor is the monarch, is The Church of England and I also hope that most feel that even a Christian church such as this Protestant one, might retain a sense of the sacred.

The matter is controversial even within the Anglican Church but Catholics in the UK are not all looking for a return of these Churches or something similar. The Anglican Church is the state Church in England. It was disestablished in Ireland in 1869. The Church of Scotland has its own long and complex and history and the monarch remains just another member of the laity there.
I find it a rather silly idea but I fail to see why mention of this should start going on about Canterbury being a former Catholic Cathedral.
