Thank you Bishop Barron, turned music up very loud, no respect for anything. BLOOD @ WATER which gushed forth from heart of JESUS have MERCY on us @ on whole world.Amen♥️
We Catholics will not be threatened about our religion by those detractors.We will protect our Catholics religion and its teaching.God bless Bishop Baron for the courage to talk for Jesus Christ and His followers. BE BLESSED.
France totally squandered the great opportunity to portray a great nation but, alas, she has shown how crass a nation she has become. God is not mocked and will not need defending. Beijing 2008 has shown how much class, artistry, and culture in their opening ceremony. The world saw the coming and rise of a 4000+ years old ancient civilization in the global stage.
Thank you your Lordship Baron, How can the organizers allow this to happen, disturbing/mocking the sentiments of the universal Catholic Church, Faithful (Catholics and Christians) kindly voice out, speak for Jesus because Jesus justified the world through his passion death and resurrection. Jesus forgives them.... Today is the First Friday of the month and this devotion reminds us to honor and respect the Holy Eucharist (The Heart of Catholic Worship).... may the mockers be transformed through the Sacrament of Eucharist (The Last Supper) Praise you Jesus, Thank you Jesus, Forgive us Jesus and Help us Jesus, Ave Maria.
The Olympic opening ceremony in Paris, France was to me aesthetically distasteful. I used to think this city is the center of great art & fine culture. The ceremony lacked focus on the essentials of the event. The frequent insertion of what seems to be woke culture of the city was disparaging & poignant. What's more, the shameless display of testicles and morally offensive drag depiction of the Last Supper of Jesus Christ was utterly outrageous. Is this France today? This France is not worth the lives of the heroes of Normandy, the blood of the French martyrs and the respect of the billions of Christians worldwide !
Instead of saying, "We're sorry to have offended you" - they said, "We're sorry YOU are offended"! So, being offended is OUR fault - not theirs! That's not an apology, that's an accusation!
Sumagot itong tagatingin, libre daw iyon ipinadala niya maaari dahil siya ay sumagot eh at walang bayad (iyong walang kahihiyan kundi puro kayabangan lamang), so ibig sabihin walang kinalaman sa amo niya iyon. Wala nang kinalaman don ang aking ex.
Thank you Bishop Barron. I am an avid sports fan in exile due to the woke propaganda in sports over the last four years. I am consciously sitting out this Olympics.
People please tell me would you want your kids to sit there and watch this? Would you want your kids to literally sit there and watch this go on. And tell them that this is OK.
@@michelpellerin8957 Forgiveness can't be sold. To be forgiven there has to be true contrition. Forgiveness is a God given grace, but only after true contrition is shown. And only God knows what's in a person's mind. Therefore I will leave it to God's will.
Well, whoever is giving us Bishop Baron’s reply here made sure we could not hear whatever he had to say by blocking his reply with overlaying music, Nuff said!

Do not watch a single minute of these games. Do not patronize comanies that support the Olympic movement or advertise the Olympic games. Do Not Forget, once the Olympics is over.
TOLERANCE ???? Looks more to me and every one of the million practicing Catholics as a slap in the face, a desecration of a major principle of the faith we hold dear. The question really is, “Why would you feel safe in doing this on a worldwide stage?” There is no apology that can ring true in the ears of most of us.
Galacian 6:7 Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. Galatians 6:7 They wouldn’t dare mock any other religion, this is intentional.
Officially, France is destroyed. I can't understand why they used an international event to promote something not related to sport events TO INSULT CHRISTIANS.
It was hard to hear Bishop Barron over the loud "foreground" music. We did get a response. There were enough of us complaining that it got through & was acknowledged. No it wasn't the apology we wanted. I don't think these people are capable of that kind of apology. We will keep fasting & praying for their conversion. I'm also praying for a deeper conversion for myself in showing Christ's Love & Mercy 🙏☦️🙏
We are offended because it WAS offensive! Sorry, Jesus, after 2000 years, we still have people showing their disrespect globally in front of all Christians, and try to make it look like art of France. Why couldn't they show the real DeVinci Last Supper in all its glory at the Opening Games to show Christianity is alive and well in France. Lost opportunity, instead showed such disrespect for our religion and they thought we wouldn't notice. It ruined the whole opening of the summer games, and put a cloud over the rest of the days at this olympic event. Not only Americans should be upset, but the Christians of al countries should stand up and respond in our Lord's name. Thanks Bishop Barron for your strength and words.
This is not an apology. It is not accepted and they are not forgiven for blasphemy against our Lord. Our family will pray for these offenders and at the same time, defend our faith.
The background music is too loud and is dominating... this music is a wrong choice.. it is horrible.. it distracts those who listen to Bishop's important message ! My sincere thanks to the Bishop for his message !
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- More than a week after the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, the Vatican joined people who complained that a segment of the show featuring drag performers offended Christians. "The Holy See was saddened by certain scenes in the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Paris and can only join the voices that have been raised in recent days to deplore the offense caused to many Christians and believers of other religions," said the statement published by the Vatican press office late Aug. 3. The Vatican statement did not specifically identify the segment of the July 26 performance, which featured drag performers, including one wearing a crown, seated at a table in a scene that reminded many people of Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting of the Last Supper. "In a prestigious event where the whole world gathers around common values, there should be no allusions that ridicule the religious convictions of many people," the Vatican statement said.
Saying youre sorry for somebody else feeling is not an apologies. You cannot be responsible for someone else feeling. What they did is excuse themselves.
We will simply boycott the Olympics. It's derogatory to the exemplary sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus. We will not resort to violence as other religious groups would, We will never again watch the Olympics. .
The backgraound music is SOOOO LOUD that it is just hard work to listen what is said. PLEASE, stop this. Why background music at all, when the content is so good and valuable? IF anyway, then please very soft. Thanks
Just a thought.Theme the opening ceremony of the Olympics. I think that this teasing is part of French culture. Charlei Hebdo magazine did this teasing with the muslim prophet. The explanation although plausible was not satisfying. I agree. What I am more concerned about is the war in Gaza, the war in Ukraine, Syria, South Sudan, and the migrant problem world over. Is the best we can do as Catholics complain about the error in judgement of the opening ceremony? Let us put on our big boy pants and tackle real problems in the world.
it is not the last supper - which is a painting by da vinci and not the bible. it is the same as the chosen - a theatrical event. but it wasn't anything to do with christian iconography anyway.
No, its supposed to be a Greek gods banquet, never seen Mt Olympus depicted that way. Maybe Zeus should let loose a few thunderbolts too the gods never were sculptured that way either. Think about that one!
The sad thing is that Thomas Jolly has also made those in the lgbtq community look like thoughtless arrogant bigots. Im sure they all arent like this and are infact considerate of others feelings (even more so because they are lgbtq?) He has just rubbed salt into their wounds too, and not 'marketed' them to be a kind, loving and inclusive commuty as attempted.
Interestingly Bishop Barron isn't leading protests in front of French embassies or even launching a 'Budlight' boycott against the Olympics. As they say in Spain, 'Llora como mujer lo que no supiste defender como hombre'.
Meanwhile Christians are being killed in Palestine the birthplace of the Lord… and he is talking about a performance in the Olympics. Really taking on the powerful here…
Do these clowns imagine they can insult Jesus? He chose to place himself below any possible insult humans can vomit forth. Jesus might as well say, "Is that all you've got?" What do you make of someone who can't be insulted, even in the name of Love?
It’s not only regarding catholics it concerns christians, why in recent years from Brazil to U.S. to Europe why always targeting a Christian religious symbols in mockery way, knowing is offensive yet they are doing it and then releasing an apology statement “while individuals have the right to exercise their freedoms, those freedoms must not infringe upon the rights and freedoms of others”
Where did the Christian Empire's baptism by fire come from? Have you not provided yourselves with flaming torches and covered the Earth with the shadows of the fires you have set ablaze; even if you wash your eyes in the Pool of Siloam, you can not catch them breaking in for you are on the outside knocking. If you walk in the "light" of your raging fires surely you will find gold, gold you claimed you could see, gold I covered with the shadow of my hand.
One who has tried and attempted for this blasphemy of God the lord and his apostles, has tried to please the enemy of God our Lord our saviour And we all of us catholics, who believe in our salvation through his crucifixion on the Holy Cross, who take part in the holy communion in the remembrance of the Holy Supper, to live in the body of Christ Curse this blasphemy of God the Lord. We believe in Lord Jesus Christ as our savior, and we love the life of love and peace that he has granted us, through the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The cult of Dionysus was a cult of sexual deviants that was banned as far back as 186BC. I guess “Jolly” missed this part when doing his Google search. Furthermore, why is no one talking about the Golden calf and the Pale Horse; also Christian iconography?
They need to apologize to Jesus for blasphemy. Would these brave transvestites dare to do a similar 'spoof' about Mohammed or Islam or the Koran? Of course not.
Yes it’s our right as Christians to have our grievance heard. But this silly offense does not pose any real threat to the Body of Christ. The Lord has won. Rather, this is a great opportunity to let go of our pride and ego, show them how christians live our faith by turning the other cheek. Show our eagerness to forgive, like how Pope JPii embraced his assassin. And show the LBGTQ community we also embrace them as God’s children.
I have been reading many responses to this Olympic opening. My first take was that this opening was over the top and I did not like it. I Turned This Off. End of story, I do not think so. First, I think that this should not have been done, but for different reasons. This show was obscene for me and clearly children. With the world including children watching the production team turned a "blind -eye to this factor. Poor Judgement. Now with the explanation of the Celebration of Dionysus god of wine, Okay this is France. Crazy about wine and the story is plausible. But the Olympic producers should have been more "Woke". I do not worship Greek mythic gods and I am not offended.
Thank you Bishop Barron. Our family emailed Olympic Press committee , boycotting olympics and praying for them to come back to our Lord.
Sumagot itong tagatingin, libre daw iyon ipinadala niya maaari dahil siya ay sumagot eh at walang bayad (iyong walang kahihiyan kundi puro kayabangan lamang), so ibig sabihin walang kinalaman sa amo niya iyon. Wala nang kinalaman don ang aking ex.
Thanks Bishop Barron, God bless you for defending our faith
Bishop Barron thank you for defending our Faith.
Thank you for speaking up for the truth..God Bless
May god bless you for bringing people people to the lord Jesus Christ
Thank you Bishop Barron, turned music up very loud, no respect for anything. BLOOD @ WATER which gushed forth from heart of JESUS have MERCY on us @ on whole world.Amen♥️
This world needs more bishops like this bishop.
Much love and respect for you bishop 🙏.
Well said Bishop Barron! Thank you!
Thank you Bishop Barron well said.
This is not an accepted apology it's not an apology at all well done bishop Barron that you can see through this hypocrisy
Bishop is same
He is a modernist just like all Vatican 2 clergy.
Thankyou Bishop Barron for standing up for all Christians.
Love and regards to your Excellancy, Bishop Barron.🍒
Thank you, Bishop Barron, for your vigorous defense of the Faith, and for calling out these cowards. Perhaps Pope Francis could do the same . . .
We Catholics will not be threatened about our religion by those detractors.We will protect our Catholics religion and its teaching.God bless Bishop Baron for the courage to talk for Jesus Christ and His followers. BE BLESSED.
Yes we have to defend our faith in a non violent way. THANKYOU BiSHOP BARON
I wish you would try and defend it in a violent way just as has been done down through time
Thank you Bishop
Thanks Bishop Barron
Thank you! Bishop Barron.
Well done Bishop Barron, they didn’t even mention Christianity in the apology.
They didn't apologize for the drag queen show. They said they were sorry we were offended.
Thank You so much!
Amen Bishop. Thank you.
There was absolute intention of disrespect and mockery!
Thank You Bishop Barron. God Bless You
France totally squandered the great opportunity to portray a great nation but, alas, she has shown how crass a nation she has become. God is not mocked and will not need defending.
Beijing 2008 has shown how much class, artistry, and culture in their opening ceremony. The world saw the coming and rise of a 4000+ years old ancient civilization in the global stage.
Thank you your Lordship Baron, How can the organizers allow this to happen, disturbing/mocking the sentiments of the universal Catholic Church, Faithful (Catholics and Christians) kindly voice out, speak for Jesus because Jesus justified the world through his passion death and resurrection. Jesus forgives them.... Today is the First Friday of the month and this devotion reminds us to honor and respect the Holy Eucharist (The Heart of Catholic Worship).... may the mockers be transformed through the Sacrament of Eucharist (The Last Supper) Praise you Jesus, Thank you Jesus, Forgive us Jesus and Help us Jesus, Ave Maria.

This France is not worth the lives of the heroes of Normandy, the blood of the French martyrs and the respect of the billions of Christians worldwide !
A true apology is firing the organizers who allowed this and Thomas Jolly from his profession.
Well said Bishop.
It is not a surprise that they did this immediately after the eucharistic convetion in the US.
Instead of saying, "We're sorry to have offended you" - they said, "We're sorry YOU are offended"! So, being offended is OUR fault - not theirs! That's not an apology, that's an accusation!
Bishop we all stand with U. All catholics together protest . A Mathew from Karachi Pakistan.

Thank you for that strong clear message!❤
Thank you Bishop Barron. I am an avid sports fan in exile due to the woke propaganda in sports over the last four years. I am consciously sitting out this Olympics.
People please tell me would you want your kids to sit there and watch this? Would you want your kids to literally sit there and watch this go on. And tell them that this is OK.
As an Anglican I am glad that a Catholic Bishop has the courage to speak out for all of us Christians, may the Lord Bless Bishop Robert Baron!😊
Good preacher for defending this
You should take away the music which drowns the one who is speaking
Just a suggestion, the background music is so loud it drowns out Bishop Barron.
Apologies should not include excuses.😊
Cut the loud music while Bishop Barron is speaking it is most disrespectful. The topic is very serious THE MOCKING OF GOD. This sin is unforgivable.
Yes! 💯
According to the church all sins are forgivable. Selling forgiveness is the church’s stock in trade.
@@michelpellerin8957 Forgiveness can't be sold. To be forgiven there has to be true contrition. Forgiveness is a God given grace, but only after true contrition is shown. And only God knows what's in a person's mind. Therefore I will leave it to God's will.
@@jacintaward8926 dont Forget to leave something in the collection plate.
Yeas please tone it down
Is it possible to turn down the music? We can hardly hear what he said.
Well, whoever is giving us Bishop Baron’s reply here made sure we could not hear whatever he had to say by blocking his reply with overlaying music, Nuff said!
I called the number for the Olympics and gave my negative opinion of the Olympic parody.
Thank you Bishop Barron for defending the faith.

What apology? That's just the OIC being pleased with themselves. God will not be mocked!
Praying and boycotting the Olympics.
Do not watch a single minute of these games.
Do not patronize comanies that support the Olympic movement or advertise the Olympic games.
Do Not Forget, once the Olympics is over.
Christian athletes if they win an Olympic medal should hold up a crucifix/cross on the podium when their national anthem is played.
TOLERANCE ???? Looks more to me and every one of the million practicing Catholics as a slap in the face, a desecration of a major principle of the faith we hold dear. The question really is, “Why would you feel safe in doing this on a worldwide stage?” There is no apology that can ring true in the ears of most of us.
Galacian 6:7

Galatians 6:7
They wouldn’t dare mock any other religion, this is intentional.
This was their full intention to mocked Jesus's Christ and whole Christianity especially Roman Catholic s!!!
In true French style, they only attempt what they think they can get away with easily.
The Evil Spirit that entered into Judas at last supper is present for the Olympics.
Officially, France is destroyed. I can't understand why they used an international event to promote something not related to sport events TO INSULT CHRISTIANS.

Why is Pope is silent?
Praise God for our outspoken Bishops! We know nothing will come from the Pope and his favorite Father Martin.
He has a sore throat.😢
Being ignored is bad enough. But when the pope ignores them, they are truly nothing.
Francis isn't an idiot. He knows the difference between the Last Supper and a Roman festival of Bacchus.
@@clearjr1 The obese lesbian at the centre of the table in the 'festival' doesn't agree with you - she has described it as the new gay testament.
We are offended because it WAS offensive! Sorry, Jesus, after 2000 years, we still have people showing their disrespect globally in front of all Christians, and try to make it look like art of France.

If it was an attempt to resurrect a long dead religion of the pagans, it seems to have just fallen flat on its face.
The background music is a cacophony! How are we sippose to hear the Bishop? This is not a fight scene in a movie.
The Catholic church has had enough of its oen scandals for which to apologize. I find those disingenuous as well.
This is not an apology. It is not accepted and they are not forgiven for blasphemy against our Lord. Our family will pray for these offenders and at the same time, defend our faith.

Parise the Lord for church leaders like Bp Barron
Saying youre sorry for somebody else feeling is not an apologies. You cannot be responsible for someone else feeling. What they did is excuse themselves.
We will simply boycott the Olympics. It's derogatory to the exemplary sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus. We will not resort to violence as other religious groups would, We will never again watch the Olympics. .

FRANCE? Why and how France are like this? Are they not aware of this? And still watching and enjoying the so called Olympic.?!
Nope. Take your "apology"
"Masterpiece of woke duplicity" u said it BB
The background music is disruptive
Could we at least not have to listen to deafening background as we hear bishop Barons reply?
The music is highly irritating
Just a thought.Theme the opening ceremony of the Olympics. I think that this teasing is part of French culture. Charlei Hebdo magazine did this teasing with the muslim prophet.

Meanwhile Christians are being killed in Palestine the birthplace of the Lord… and he is talking about a performance in the Olympics.
Really taking on the powerful here…
What is ds loud background music all abt?!
That is not the rison why u posted ds..but for the message of bp to be understood loud and clear.
They really should just dial it down and keep it muted and classy. Like their equally pagan quadrennial ritual of lighting the Olympic torch.
Do these clowns imagine they can insult Jesus? He chose to place himself below any possible insult humans can vomit forth. Jesus might as well say, "Is that all you've got?" What do you make of someone who can't be insulted, even in the name of Love?

the loud background music makes it difficult to hear. please lower the background music.
They planned it. It was the decision of them all. Shame on them. Shame. Apology not accepted
Too late.
Why should the olympic comitee want to offend a religion?
Yes, I'm wondering about his as well. If any ceremony should refrain from provocative images it's the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics.
Is this heavy background music really necessary?
The Bible makes it clear that Jesus Christ will return to judge the world, and we should focus on preparing for His return.
Don’t be insulted over nothing.
Yes. WOKE duplicity describes it quite well YOUR GRACE ✝️. It was NOT a wonderful expression. 😠
One who has tried and attempted for this blasphemy of God the lord and his apostles, has tried to please the enemy of God our Lord our saviour
And we all of us catholics, who believe in our salvation through his crucifixion on the Holy Cross, who take part in the holy communion in the remembrance of the Holy Supper, to live in the body of Christ
Curse this blasphemy of God the Lord.
We believe in Lord Jesus Christ as our savior, and we love the life of love and peace that he has granted us, through the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Make him pope.
