Offense against Christians at the Olympics: Sign the petition to the IOC!

To the attention of the Executive Board of the International Olympic Committee (IOC)

We, the undersigned, strongly denounce the outrageous and blasphemous nature of the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The Olympic opening ceremony included a scandalous parody of the Last Supper, a sacred moment for Christians around the world. This mocking and obscene depiction, seen by hundreds of millions of people, is deeply offensive, especially to Christians.

Such a deliberately sacrilegious message has nothing to do with sport, nothing to do with France, and certainly nothing to do with the Olympic Games.

It's a hijacking of the opening ceremony for anti-Christian and woke propaganda purposes.

By staging this grotesque parody, the organizers have gravely offended Christians the world over and contravened the Olympic Charter, which forbids all religious and political propaganda within the framework of the Olympic Games. The organizers would never have dared to parody the symbols and events of other religions. This attack on Christians is unacceptable and goes against the principles of respect for religious beliefs promoted by the IOC.

The International Olympic Committee cannot at the same time advocate respect for all religious beliefs and tolerate such a ceremony that seriously offends Christians.

We demand a public and solemn apology from the organizers of the Paris 2024 Olympics for this grave offense, and not just vague justifications.

We demand that regulatory measures be taken to ensure that such scandals do not occur again. The IOC must check the content of the ceremonies in advance to verify, before they are held, that they comply with its regulations and values.

Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world; don't participate in the trivialization of Christians’ harassment.

Sign this petition to obtain this change and let the IOC know of your indignation!

The ECLJ has been involved in several sacrilege-related cases, for which you can find our work and actions on our website: the “host affair” in Spain, the Femen desecrating a Parisian church, blasphemous advertising in Lithuania...
