FIFA censures a public expression of faith
FIFA censors player's "100% Jesus"
FIFA censors player's "100% Jesus"
It happened on Monday 11 January, in Zurich. FIFA celebrated the Golden Ball award by posting the ceremony on FIFA TV. The party was exciting and endearing. Ronaldo and Messi saluted Neymar.
The controversy arose, however, when FIFA TV video with censorship. In nominating Neymar showed images of victory against Juventus last June. A victory that meant the glass of the Champions League for the club .
It was then that the tape showed Neymar hair censored. Instead of " 100 % Jesus " appear , appeared blank .
The explanation given is that FIFA took the text of the headband of Neymar " respect" . Why respect ?, who ?, Neymar to the millions of fans Christians?
The ' cristofóbico ' gesture is a clear attack on religious freedom.
Neymar has repeatedly explained that it is very religious and carrying the tape thanks to the Evangelical Church to save the 'crack' financial football team where his son played
Not a symbol respectable for a player is meaningful and relevant ?, Why do not respect the player ?, Why do not respect the millions of fans Christians ?, why practicing censorship in sport?
Look what the Code of Conduct FIFA approved May 25, 2012 :
3.2 Respect and Dignity : We treat all people with respect and protect the dignity , privacy and rights of every human being.

Don't censure Neymar and Millions of Christian fans
Attention: Steering committee of FIFA
I know that the Golden Ball ceremony was held last Monday in Zurich.
I was surprised to see that the images shown of Neymar's "100% Jesus" head-band have been censored.
FIFA argue that they did this "out of respect." But, out of respect for whom? Neymar? Or, the millions of Christian fans?
FIFA's censorship contradicts section 3.2 of its own code of conduct, in which they undertake to "treat all people with respect."
I, therefore, ask you to offer a public apology immediately.
