As told of in the trackdetails of "Anno Domini 1232"; three songs on this CD refers to when the first (of three) inquisitions was formed in order to legalize the persecutions of innocent women in the name of Christianity. This second of those tracks have been blessed with the most ironic title there is. For you see; "ecclesia non novit sanguinem" is latin for "the church is untainted with blood", and is an official statement used during these times of unmatched bloodshed. Is there anything merely as contradictory as this very phrase. In adding the questionmark I hope to make people understand the irony since the church must have spilled more blood than any of the deamons in the bible put together. And the fact that the very people who (directly or inderictly) killed and visciously tortured so many actually came up with this phrase and completely believed that they actually lived by those words is the biggest mockery of them all. The song in itself is close to a ballad if one considers not the heavier middle section. It is highly melodic and sort of a breathcatches between the two songs that preceeded and the coming of "The Kindred (Salem 1692)" |
