Fordham University students have hit back at a Christian group that demanded the cancellation of a drag show at the Catholic school this Friday.

The Bronx Jesuit school’s offices received angry calls and emails last week after an evangelical organization, the Tradition Family Property Student Group, posted a petition ripping the event at a school auditorium.

Arguing that a Christian school should not host the showcase on religious grounds, the overtly anti-gay group gathered more than 12,000 signatures and told objectors to personally contact the school’s president, the Rev. Joseph McShane.

In response, students posted their own online petition last week demanding that administrators hold the event.
