Catholics Angry at PETA ads

ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By Tahlib
The model Joanna Krupa's new PETA ads are attracting angry voices of many religious reactionaries. The model recently appeared nearly nude in an ad for PETA where she sports angel wings and having a crucifix placed on her body. The ad says “Be an angel for animals” as shown left. The campaign is to encourage people to adopt pets instead of buying them. The PETA ad however has made the Catholic League angry. They feel that the naked Joanna Krupa holding the religious symbol is blasphemy. (Source: Island Crisis)
