  • A man opened fire in a cathedral in southern Brazil after Mass on Tuesday, killing four people and wounding four more before taking a bullet in the ribs in a firefight with police and then shooting himself in the head, authorities said.
  • The shooting happened right after the midday service had ended at the Metropolitan Cathedral in Campinas, a city about 60 miles (100 kilometers) north of Sao Paulo.
  • Authorities said they had not determined a motive. A backpack found near the dead gunman had his identification but no note or other clues, police investigator Jose Henrique Ventura told reporters outside the church.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — A man opened fire in a cathedral in southern Brazil after Mass on Tuesday, killing four people and wounding four more before taking a bullet in the ribs in a firefight with police and then shooting himself in the head, authorities said.

The shooting happened right after the midday service had ended at the Metropolitan Cathedral in Campinas, a city about 60 miles (100 kilometers) north of Sao Paulo.

Supporters say the $ 100 million construction, which will require the demolition of a number of recent government buildings, will be an important statement of national ambition. The west African country’s president, Nana Akufo-Addo, who gifted the land for the project, insists that Ghanaian Christians, who make up roughly 70 percent of the population, need a symbol.

But in a country with high debt and an annual per capita income below $ 2,000, the plans have revived memories of the “Basilica in the Bush,” the largest church in the world, built in the 1980s by the then lifelong leader of Ivory Coast, Félix Houphouët-Boigny.

At a time when taxes are going up, banks have collapsed and you can’t pay for social programs, is it really the thing to do to build a cathedral?

Critics have taken to social media to complain that, when schools lack roofs and farmers proper roads, building a cathedral might be frivolous. The project has also unsettled the country’s religious minorities, who worry about a possible blurring of church and state.

“At a time when taxes are going up, banks have collapsed and you can’t pay for social programs, is it really the thing to do to build a cathedral?” Yaw Nsarkoh, executive vice president of consumer group Unilever for Ghana and Nigeria, reflects.

Akufo-Addo was elected nearly two years ago by making big spending promises — which he has since had to cut back because of lack of funds. Yet the Ghanaian leader has brushed off criticism that the construction is a waste of money. “You’ll never have enough money to do everything at the same time,” he told the Financial Times Africa Summit in London last month. “People say: Is this a priority? It is a priority among other priorities.”

Ken Ofori-Atta, Ghana’s finance minister, has insisted that the cathedral would largely be financed by private donors, though sceptics have said the government will end up underwriting it.

Other members of the establishment, while having mixed feelings about the construction, reject the argument that Ghana should postpone all prestige projects until it had tackled more pressing issues. “You can’t say: ‘Until we are wealthy, we cannot afford national pride,’ ” Edward Effah, chairman of Fidelity Bank, Ghana’s biggest, says.

Akufo-Addo has encapsulated his vision of a nation that can stand on its own feet in the slogan “Ghana Beyond Aid.”

Sir David, who also designed the acclaimed Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C., has called the proposed structure a place where “religion, democracy and local tradition are seamlessly and symbolically intertwined.”

Yet critics say that the cathedral’s extravagance is driven less by concerns of national prestige and more by an emerging struggle over the role of Christianity in Ghana’s identity. Under former president John Mahama, who comes from the predominantly Muslim north, a Turkish foundation paid for the completion of a huge mosque in Accra.

“The Christians are feeling a bit upstaged by what they consider a minority religion,” says Kwasi Prempeh, executive director of Ghana’s Center for Democratic Development. “The Christians are saying, ‘We have to flex our political muscles.’ ”

Ofori-Atta, who, like the current president, is a devout Christian, has insisted that the state paid for Muslims to attend the Haj, and that it should not be taboo for it to back a Christian project. But so much has religion seeped into government that Ofori-Atta has led prayers this year for the successful completion of a eurobond issue — to the discomfort of some staff.

The government also views the cathedral as a way of clawing back ground from a plethora of evangelists and “charismatic preachers” who have drawn millions of people, and tens of millions of dollars, into their congregations.

“There are so many one-man-style churches, and these guys are making fortunes,” says Daniel Domelevo, Ghana’s auditor-general.

The government is considering taxing private churches on the grounds that they are more moneymaking enterprises than places of worship.

Crosby Aboagye, a taxi driver passing the looming Turkish mosque, says he supported the idea of the new cathedral. “There are only a few Muslims. We are a Christian country,” he says. “If you go to Ivory Coast, they have a national cathedral. Why not Ghana?”

Since I’ve stumbled across a number of ancient chapels and churches in unexpected places over the years, it shouldn’t have come as such a shocker one summer in the south of France, next to the Mediterranean, near a narrow spit of land to the west of Palavas-les-Flots (a resort town just south of Montpellier). But there it was, mere steps away from where I was learning to kitesurf: an ancient fortress-like cathedral next to the beach.

The Saint-Pierre de Maguelone cathedral can come as a bit of a surprise to surfers, tourists and beachgoers in their birthday suits (it’s also a naturist area) zipping around nearby. The most striking thing, and what “also makes it an incredibly picturesque destination, is the cathedral’s isolation, floating on that little finger of land between vineyards, lagoon and sea,” says Elizabeth Emery, a professor of French language and culture at Montclair State University. Because “cathedrals are, by definition, seats of bishops,” she adds, you expect “to find them in large urban centers, not on islands.”

The cathedral’s long history involves the likes of the Visigoths, Romans, Saracens and Franks. Religious structures on this tiny island, wedged in between the Étang de l’Arnel lagoon and the Mediterranean, date back to the 1st century. The Germanic Visigoths moved in and founded a diocese here after the Roman Empire crumbled. The Franks destroyed the original cathedral — which had been converted to a mosque — in the 8th century during their conflict with the Saracens.

Gerardo Boto Varela, professor of medieval architecture and art history at the University of Girona, Spain, points out the “fascinating and singular” elements of this fortified church’s design, with “stairs integrated into the wall, choirs on high, lateral apses that do not project to the outside and very strong towers on the sides of the building.” In other words, Maguelone was the Fort Knox of cathedrals in its day. Maguelone, which is a “Romanesque church [built] on the walls of the Visigothic church,” Varela explains, regained its ecclesiastical glory when it became the regional bishopric from the 6th to 16th century — although it was essentially abandoned for centuries after, once the diocese was relocated to Montpellier in the 1500s.

These days, apart from lush surroundings and stunning ocean views, visitors to Maguelone — now an active archaeological excavation site maintained by the Compagnons de Maguelone — can enjoy the reconditioned grounds, cool cathedral (literally, which is great on a hot summer’s day) and island in large part to the efforts of archaeologist and historian Frédéric Fabrège, who took over the property in 1852. Fabrège restored the cathedral and the Saint-Blaise chapel, planted trees across the (once) barren island and brought the abandoned diocese back to life.

Along with maintaining the tranquil surroundings and small vineyard, preserving the rich architectural history and organizing the Maguelone Early Music Festival held every June (and other concerts throughout the year), the Compagnons de Maguelone also runs Établissement et Service d’Aide par le Travail (ESAT). The organization helps adults with disabilities find work in a natural setting through viticulture and wine production, as well as hawk their goods (wine and fish) at a special shop on the island. Admission to the cathedral and grounds is free, with an audio guide costing around 4 euros (about $ 4.60).

After a stroll along the Mediterranean, and perhaps a dip in the water (sans clothing or not), the Saint-Pierre de Maguelone cathedral offers the curious a rewarding reprieve from the sun, sea and sand, with a deep glimpse into the region’s storied history.

At Easter, the faithful celebrate the resurrection of Christ after his death by crucifixion. The vigil at Russia’s main church, Christ the Savior Cathedral, attracts thousands of worshippers, including the country’s top officials.
