Madonna's Warsaw concert causing controversy
Madonna's concert at the National Stadium in Warsaw is causing controversy because it is scheduled to take place on August 1, the anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising, reported Gazeta Wyborcza.
Members of Catholic groups, right-wing politicians and World War II veterans have suggested that the concert should not take place on such a historic date.
A group of young Catholics from the Piotr Skarga Institute have decided to organize a protest, under the banner, I am not going to attend Madonna's concert.
On Protestuj.pl, where organizers hope to collect 100,000 signatures against the concert, the group wrote, The work of Madonna in various forms attacks the Catholic faith. During her concerts she offends Jesus Christ, setting fire to crosses and wearing the crown of thorns. She also promotes homosexuality, voluptuously kissing other women, and promotes pornography by making disgusting gestures and poses.
August 1 is a Polish national holiday. Let us pay tribute to living and dead insurgents, who selflessly fought for our homeland, the added.
