Anti-Christian Images and Posters at Pro-Gay Marriage Rally in Paris

Country: France

Date of incident: January 27, 2013


The French gay activist lobby groups hosted a pro-gay marriage on the 27th of January. Unlike the pro-family rally of the 13th of January, whose posters and messages focused on images or phrases that reminded onlookers of the traditional family and of children’s need for a mother and father, the 27th of January demonstration signs were largely aimed at insulting Christians and the Pope. Some signs were calling for the “Pope to tie his own fallopian tubes.” Others called the Virgin Mary the first “surrogate mother”, while still others stated that gays were "less likely to harm children than priests".

The activists' goal was to overshadow the Pro-Family demonstration of 13th of January, which gathered between three to ten times more participants (depending on sources). At the heart of the debate was gay adoption and artificial reproductive methods for homosexual couples.
