That billboard would be a lit candle around midnight in my neighborhood.
 
“It is a misreading of the poster. It is about the photo of the children on it and that’s who the title of the play relates to.”

Considering that the Mary & Jesus statue is about 3 times the size of the photo, that’s a deviously disingenuous comment. They could’ve zoomed in on the photo and had the Mary & Jesus statue be a tiny corner of the whole image. Then that comment might’ve had slightly more credibility.
 
**Of course, it’s ALWAYS we Catholics that aren’t smart enough to “get it”.

So, we are ABSOLUTELY wrong to be getting offended, the play is about the kids in the little teeny, tiny stamp sized picture, and the giant statue of Jesus being held by His Blessed Mother is ONLY there because there is some religious “element” to it. Yeah, right ! :rolleyes:

I hope nobody goes to see their stupid play, money always talks.**
 
The whole thing from head-to-toe is disgusting: from the picture to the content of the play to the Playhouses’ spokeman’s comment.

I echo Tuscany. I hope nobody goes to see that play. I wish I could remember that prayer from Fatima that the three children used to say whenever Mary or Jesus were blasphemed. I’ll have to dig for it and say it tonight for this atrocity. Yuck.
 
The answer is to pray and trust in Our Lord Jesus to protect the dignity of The Queen of Heaven. We should not even dignify this be a rise to anger. Pray the Rosary and watch as it implodes. 👍
 
Thats horrible! Like other people who replied on here, I hope NOBODY goes to see that play! ewww!
 
I read a Wikipedia synopsis of the play, and it’s really not something that would go well with a statue of Jesus and Mary…:bigyikes:
 
I kind of wish you had posted a description along with the link. I just finished dinner, and clicked on it and nearly upchucked. I hope the play gets booed off the stage.
 
This billboard is an absolute disgrace! The spokesman was a disgrace! And the play is a disgrace! This is a blatant attack on the purity of the Blessed Virgin; they are insinuating that Our Lord and Saviour is illegitimate! This is blasphemy! There is no other word for it!

I am not surprised to see this. Unfortunately, England is very anti-Christian and extremely anti-Catholic. Attacks on the faith are a common occurrence. The only religion that is off-limits is Islam because people are afraid to say anything against it.

I wish I lived in Leeds. If I did, that billboard wouldn’t last long. I just hope someone has the courage to damage and/or deface this horrible billboard. It must be taken down, one way or another.
 
its always catholic or christianity in general that gets attacked and reduced to a joke…you can bet the’d never get away with insulting the muslim faith like that…if they put up a poster like that about mohammed there would be muslims worldwide protesting:mad:
 
I think as an English man its very apt, you should try living here now days.

Yes disgusting…

I/QUOTE]

I really think one should keep a sense of proportion. What ‘attacks on the faith’, apart from comedians?

When was the last time that a Catholic church was burnt down in England? Or a nun raped because she was a nun? Or children stoned?

‘Extremely anti-Catholic’? That’s an insult to how some of our Catholic brothers and sisters are suffering in Pakistan, for example.

This one form Fatima?

O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly. I offer Thee the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary I beg the conversion of poor sinners.

Or the Golden Arrow?

May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible and ineffable Name of God be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified in Heaven, on Earth, and under the Earth by all the creatures of God and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Amen.

I think they did it for publicity. As they say in show business, any publicity is good publicity. :mad:

How do you dare say so?

This is what they stated: “The Playhouse would never produce an image just to provoke a response, it wouldn’t be about gaining publicity.”

Don’t you trust them?

You should know better that the Playhouse uses billboards only to cover ugly walls behind them and not to provoke a response or gain publicity. :D:D:D
