The administrative court of Poitiers, France, ordered the demolition a beautiful statue of Our Lady "in the name of secularism."
In Poitiers, Charles Martel’s army saved Christian Europe by stopping the Arab-Muslim advance in 732.
The statue is in La Flotte-en-Ré, a tourist resort on the Atlantic. It was erected in 1945 by a family after the return of their father and son from the war and was first displayed in a private garden.
In 1983, it was given to the municipality and installed at the present place. In 2020, the statue was destroyed by a motorist, but the municipality restored it.
La Libre Pensée – a group of church haters – sued the municipality under an outdated 1905 law forbidding religious emblems in public space.Fr
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
