Currently Watching (Documentaries)

I watched this one. Never been a big fan of the Birthday Party (musically), although I'm certain they were an intense live band. Interesting to watch a documentary about them!

Why Catholics in Poland leave the churches (DW)

I find it extraordinary that a Catholic priest would go so far as to call his believers "hypocrites". He must be known beyond the city limits, otherwise the church wouldn't be so full. Where only "service by the book" is performed and a priest may have to care for several congregations, "the Spirit cannot give life". 

PS: Catholics are encouraged not to interfere too much in politics. This seems to have been forgotten or ignored, and not only in Poland.

Two SRF documentaries that I watched last night: first, the Flükiger case (already time-barred) and then the Grünbaum case. Both on yt. 

In the first case, I believe the first version, that is, involvement with the Red Army Faction. He may have come too close to the Schleyer hiding place. That would make it not suicide but murder. And in the Grünbaum case, the proximity to 911 is striking. Furthermore, the perpetrator and victim must have known each other. Why would he take a detour late in the evening if Mr. Grünbaum wasn't "have an appointment" at the time? Not always, but often, the perpetrator comes from the immediate environment.
