Chain Store Uses Christian Symbol With Offensive Twist

Country: France

Date of incident: May 3, 2014


The chain store “Camping” (Camper) used a spin off of a traditional Christian symbol to advertise its new shoe line the “Sailing Collection.” As depicted in the picture taken from a storefront in Paris, the traditional image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is depicted with the astronomical sign of Venus in place of the cross. This symbol is often used by feminist movements.
