Two activists from animal rights group PETA interrupted Pope Francis ’ general audience on Wednesday, shouting and holding up banners against bullfighting before being escorted out of Paul VI Hall. Protesters wear t-shirts reading: “stop blessing corridas” as they hold up placards with a writing “Bullfighting is a sin” during Pope Francis weekly general audience in the Paul VI hall at the Vatican, Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2024.
According to the organization, each year, tens of thousands of bulls are killed in bullfighting festivals globally, many dedicated to Catholic saints. In these events, mounted“As numerous countries are wisely banning this sick form of ‘entertainment.’ Pope Francis must immediately denounce this blood sport and cut the Catholic Church’s shameful ties with bullfighting,” it said in a recent statement on its website.
PETA has pointed out that Pope Francis wrote in his encyclical Laudato Si’ that “any act of cruelty to any creature is ‘contrary to human dignity’ and that, as early as the 16th century, Pope St. Pius V banned bullfights that were deemed ‘cruel’ and ‘far removed from Christian piety and charity.’”
