“Faith is not a game” is the title of the petition launched by the Italian association Pro Vita & Famiglia (Pro Life and Family) calling on the International Olympic Committee to condemn the insulting performance featured during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games.
In the wake of the July 26 parody of the Last Supper led by a drag queen, the pro-life association launched an awareness campaign and began working “to take serious measures against these discriminatory acts by the French Olympic Committee.”
The association’s spokesman, Jacopo Coghe, told ACI Prensa, CNA’s Spanish-language news partner, that global events like this, rebroadcast around the world, “are used by powerful groups and economic or political interests precisely to convey messages and visions on a large scale.”
“It‘s very sad that the Olympics, created to unite people, are now used to divide them,” he said.
Coghe stated that we live “in a situation of constant pro-LGBT ideological ‘hammering’ by politicians and institutions.”
