French Christians Protest ‘Blasphemous’ Play Where Fake Excrement Is Hurled at Image of Christ

(AP) The mayor of Paris says the city is filing legal complaints against fundamentalist Christians protesting a play at the municipal theater they claim is blasphemous.
Riot police have been called in to chase off demonstrators bearing crosses loudly protesting in front of, and sometimes inside, the Theatre de la Ville since the Oct. 20 opening of “Sur le Concept du Visage du fils de Dieu” (”On the Concept of the Son of God’s Face”).

Christian fundamentalists protest against the play featuring the face of Christ drizzled with fake excrement. (AP Photo / Thibault Camus)
“Sur le Concept du Visage du fils de Dieu” (”On the Concept of the Son of God’s Face”), by Italian Romeo Castellucci is a provocative story centering on a young man caring for his aged and incontinent father. A portrait of the face of Christ looms large onstage throughout and projectiles are ultimately thrown at it.
This video shows the protests — and the actors hurling items at the image of Christ:
Each night, police have had to defend the theater from a group of Christian protesters – organized by the group Renouveau France – who turn up with crucifixes and banners denouncing “Christianophobia,” determined to disrupt the show.
Mayor Bertrand Delanoe said Friday that Paris can’t tolerate “such expressions of fundamentalism and intolerance.”
His statement said the city is filing complaints when demonstrators try to interrupt performances of the play.
Delanoe is Paris’s first Socialist Party mayor, and openly gay.

In the end he said he only proved to himself that there had to be a God so he became a Christian. The fear of God is the beginning of knowledge.

We Christians have been historically, in America, very tolerant of other beliefs and that was the basis of how how country was born. It now behooves Christians to stand up against the attacks that are coming from every angle, Muslims, atheists and liberals. The values we hold dear benefit all people, unlike those aforementioned. The lifting up of people , not dragging them into the gutter of degradation and mental serfdom of amorality is what Christians are about.

Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.
9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

Posted on October 29, 2011 at 2:57pmGood point. When you are born again, or a new creation in Christ Jesus, you are in this world but not of it. The wisdom of this world is devilish and carnal. So let us not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of our minds and conform to what is good.
This admonition is for those who have already been made spiritually alive in Christ Jesus. Receive the en grafted Word which has the power to save our souls. The Word of God is sharper than any two edged sword dividing asunder the spirit, soul, and body. Those who are born again, or born of the Holy Spirit, have access to revelation knowledge as only the Holy Spirit can reveal the Bible or His Word. Jesus said to Peter that this is what His Church would be built on, revealed knowledge of God, or revelation.
Another example of this admonition given to those who are already born again, or spirits made alive in Christ, desire the sincere milk of the Word that you may grow thereby. Then the born again son or daughter of God won’t be tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine. Then the sons and daughters of God will overcome by the virtue of growing strong and turning the world upside down. They will have a peace that only Jesus gives.

Posted on October 29, 2011 at 8:31amIn all honesty there is a battle going on between Islam and Christianity and right now Islam has the advantage. They have people in power who are either Islamic or are afraid of it and allow them to do whatever they want. If you don’t believe me just look at the examples of what muslims did in France a few years ago. Take a look at how governments are catering to Islam, yet putting Christianity down.
Two great examples: the Mosque in NY that is being built (which I believe will be one if not the largest Mosque in America, however, NY will not allow a Greek Othrodox Church to replace a cross that was destroyed during the 9/11 attacks because it is “too” big. However, it would be the same size as before and MUCH smaller than the Mosque being built.
Example 2: In Washington D.C. Catholic University is being sued because they, a Catholic school, does not offer the muslims (who choose to go there) a place to pray that doesn’t have any Catholic/Christian symbols in it.
People need to wake up because there is a war between the 2 religions. Ask yourself why you never hear about such things or examples like this going against Islam…..after all isn’t it the religion of “Peace” and if so then there shouldn’t be any reason to think that there will be any type of retribution for them simply speaking out against Islam.

Posted on October 29, 2011 at 2:29pm@ POPP40- You need to get your facts straight:
Since we brought you news of the legal complaint filed against Catholic University alleging that Muslim students’ rights are being violated as they pray in rooms featuring Christian images and symbols, the story has picked up national media attention. Last night on Fox News, host Sean Hannity’s panel debated this “holy war being waged in our nation’s capital.” But Hannity and others are missing key facts in this case and, as a result, overlooking the real story.
When I first read about the human rights complaint allegedly filed on behalf of Muslim students at Catholic, I made the mistake of assuming that Muslim students were behind it. Only after personally speaking with the complaint filer — George Washington University law professor John Banzhaf — did I understand what this story was really all about. In fact, not a single Muslim student at Catholic University has signed on to Professor Banzhaf’s complaint and he admitted to me that he lodged the complaint against Catholic with the D.C. Office of Human Rights as a concerned individual, not on behalf of any student or group of students.
In fact, Banzhaf sent a letter to the editor of the school’s newspaper soliciting complainants on September 22, yet readily admits that none have have signed on to his case against the school.
