[edit] Changes

I've tidied up this entry, moving all historical references into one section, all architectural comments into another, and all religious information into a third. I've escaped all special characters in the text (accented letters), corrected some typos, added a pronunciation key, removed all but two photos, deleted a historical reference that was not highly relevant to the article (details on wars), and generally cleaned up the layout of the article so that information is logically arranged.

[edit] Copyright status

This text was taken from a copyrighted source: http://www.paris.org/Monuments/Sacre.Coeur/ (notice added by User:Rmhermen)

This link has been added to the entry, so that sensible readers can judge for themselves. Wetman 01:07, 27 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I've reworked the text, so any copyright issues should be moot now. Agateller 08:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Body & Blood

This is a minor note, but I feel like it needs to be made anyway. I've returned "Body and Blood" to the transubstantiation quote because the Church's Eucharistic doctrine teaches that because Christ is risen, his Body & Blood are reunited. True, when the host is consecrated, it becomes the Body of Christ, and the "wine" becomes His Blood, however, when the priest "commingles" the species (places a fragment of the host into the chalice) it is to demonstrate that Christ is Risen, and his Body & Blood are now reunited. Each host is both Body & Blood, and each sip of "wine" is likewise both Body & Blood. This is why communion under only one species ("bread" or "wine" alone) is acceptable.

[edit] angels

some details about the angles beneath the dome please just in the entrance

[edit] Construction history

The construction history of this still-controversial monument to the Catholic Right was recently blanked, with a misleading edit summary. Perhaps more detail on the publicly-expressed resistance to the Sacré-Coeur needs to be incorporated into the text. We need closer neutral and scupulous supervision here.--Wetman 16:59, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Montmart[r]e?

Is Montmarte at all an appropriate or historical spelling? I noticed two occurrences: in the infobox and in one of the bibliography entries, but I haven't corrected them, in case it's actually correct. Can anyone shed some light on this? Jogloran (talk) 11:02, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Per our Montmartre article, the spelling with the second "r" is correct.

[edit] The Bells of Sacre Coeur

This basilica has five bells; the heaviest is the largest bell in France. There should be a section describing the artifacts of these bells. --Nebula2357 (talk) 20:06, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
