Church of Cyprus calls for country’s Eurovision entry to be withdrawn for promoting worship of devil
The Orthodox Church of Cyprus is hell-bent on scrapping the country’s entry to Eurovision.
The Holy Synod, the church’s highest decision-making body, has published a scathing rebuke of the pop song “El Diablo” (“The Devil”), which has been selected as Cyprus’ official entry to the massive European song competition.
The controversial song had already made headlines earlier this week.
On Sunday, police charged a man for storming into the Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (CyBC) building and verbally attacking employees. He was protesting the country’s “blasphemous” song selection.
