| Rogerioandrade said: Brazil is a country with a majoritarian christian population, so expressions like that are pretty common here. Like it or not, religion is still part of the Brazilian culture in many ways, even our main holidays are basically religious holidays, like October, 12th (Our Lady Patroness´day), Carnaval/Ash Wednesday, Christmas etc. Religous figures are present in many popular folk parties here, like June Parties (similar to Solstice Festivals in Europe/NA), Processions Festivals etc. etc. It´s just lame and dumb to criticize a simple expression like Neymar´s bandanna. If that´s the case, then they should have banned images of the Statue of Christ the Redemeer in OG merchandising items and Tv streamings |
I never liked the guy, but I think he was very brave in wearing that bandana. I am aware he has done it also in the Champions League final in Europe and also got into trouble there, so this is a beautiful thing in my eyes: I personaly think it is a honor to suffer for Jesus Christ and that it is a shame to deny Him in any situation.
So I applaud Neymar Jr for that, he had nothing to win and a lot to lose, but he did it anyways.
