Madonna branded "crypto-Satanist"

Madonna has been called a "crypto-Satanist" by Polish critics after announcing a Warsaw show on the religious holiday of the Virgin Mary's ascension.

Madonna has been called a "crypto-Satanist" after it was announced that she would perform in Poland on a religious holiday. The show is planned for 15 Aug in Warsaw, which is the day that Polish Catholics commemorate the Virgin Mary's ascension to heaven.

Anyway, a spokeswoman for the Committee For The Defence Of The Faith And Tradition Of Poland, Marian Baranski said at a press conference: "Madonna specialises in offending religious feelings. It is possible to suspect her of being a crypto-Satanist".

Former Polish politician Zygmunt Wrzodak added: "Madonna sneers at Jesus Christ, the symbol of the cross and all Christians".

Madonna has apparently refused to move the date of the show, despite protestations.
