As one of the 2.5 billion Christians, I take offense at this gross and depraved mockery. Blessed be the Holy Face of Jesus. Blessed be the Holy Name of God. Blessed be the Sacred Body and the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be His Most Sacred Heart. Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true man. Blessed be Jesus in Holy Sacrament of The Holy Eucharist. Blessed be the name of Jesus, Our Lord and Savior. Amen
Bunch of hypocritical lies. You used the Olympics ceremony to offend and promote your extreme agenda and show a lack of regard for anyone who doesn't agree with you. Shameful and disrespectful.
As a Frenchman and as a Catholic, I feel I have been mocked twice : my faith has been mocked, and so was my country. This apology is pure hypocrisy. Thank you for your proud response.
Oh mon pauvre, ta foi a été moquée par une séquence de 5 minutes bon enfant ? La communauté lgbt serait-elle à ce point exécrée dans monde catholique pour qu'une mise en scène avec certains de ses membres soient considérée comme une insulte ? L'abbé Pierre est accusé d'abus sexuels, près de 3% des membres de l'église catholique ont commus des agressions sexuelles envers des gosses, mais le problème no 1 des cathos de France, c'est la cérémonie des JO, wouaouh !
Thank You Bishop Barron for continuing to stick up for our Christian belief. This was a mockery and they are making light of the situation.. No apology recognized.
I agree with Bishop Barron . The opening ceremony was very DISRESPECTFUL to the Catholic and all Christians. I felt very sad . The Last Supper is very important to us .
It was not offensive to the Catholic and Christians, it was offensive to very the foundation of European Union, I’ve read numerous comments of non believers saying they were mortified to see that horrible show mocking others beliefs.
@@ritaamor283 Exactly! Thank you! They mock anyone who does not agree with them. My gay cousin was possibly more outraged as he feels things like this do far more harm to the gay community than help. The only question is who is net?!
I love that tens and tens of thousands of Christians in Paris gathered to pray afterward. And I've prayed that this crazy, large scale, public farce adds to the solidifying of the faith in those who were part of the 17,000 recently baptized in France.
I don’t know what ‘information’ sources you have seen but that never happened and will probably never happen. There aren’t that many Catholics in France who would be bothered. They would have to come from many other countries to make up those kinds of numbers, especially as the summer holiday is full on and there is hardly a Parisian left in Paris right now.
@@valerieh84 I said 17,000 but it was 12,000 according to Catholic news - new baptisms in Easter this year. I definitely understand what you mean about Paris. All the big Euro cities have become a serious problem.
Bishop Barron is spot on. I have boycotted the Olympics bc of what the IOC has allowed to be aired. This mockery of my Catholic faith has wounded me and I need an apology from the IOC if not from the entire country of France and all the ?actors? who participated. I can only hope the 2.6 million of us and their friends and families also boycott what was supposed to be a lot of fun for 2 weeks that turned out very wrong.
It would be wiped off from his face because he would have no head. Remember the French teacher who was beheaded because sharing cartoon image of Muhammad.
Thank you Bishop Baron for defending catholics and christians against this blatant attack on our sacred beliefs, but most importantly for defending our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We cannot remain silent or be tolerant of these deliberate attacks. God bless!
Bishop Barron always spot on and great in his comments. The false excuses by Paris Mayor and event organizer is just a great evidence of their mixed stupidity and hypocrisy.
This is an outrageous apology and mockery of Christianity. Sometimes I wonder when our judgment will come like Sodom and Gomorrah. This is really serious. We can't stop addressing it!
Thank you Bishop Barron for nailing it on the head. As a participant in the Eucharistic Congress, the very obscene depiction of Our Lord giving us His Body and Blood is offensive. Everyone needs to let the sponsors and the IOC know our disdain. I have written to the IOC and complained. I will follow through with Coca Cola and Proctor and Gamble. Jane Hoover
You were asked as to why you the producer, were so secretive about this production...your comment was, " if I told you the theme, I would be fired." You KNEW EXACTLY WHAT YOU WERE DOING.
God bless you Bishop barron please keep speaking out about these people they will keep trying to drive their ideas down people's throats if they are not stopped real Christians must keep speaking out jesus is Lord praise be to god 🙏
Thank you for speaking up for our faith. I for one am horrified and slightly frightened by public displays which communicate "acceptance" and "love", whilst metaphorically sticking a middle finger up at Christians, or indeed anyone who disagrees. That is neither acceptance nor love. It is arrogance, and a message of "our way is better than yours". Everyone in the Western World is free to believe what they like, and God will be the judge at the end. But don't mock, that's ugly, and shows people up for who they truly are.
Stop with the woke please. The opposite is asleep. The athletes had nothing to do with the opening ceremonies. Somebody had a very bad idea and nobody called him or her on it. There have been many parodies of the Last Supper painting and I never saw this kind or reaction.
By the way Al 87 cathedrals in France are the property of the national government which spends fortunes maintaining them and does not charge the church for their use.
We should not be surprised in a world of unbelief this has happened...they are not apologetic but their goal was reached...may the LORD have mercy on their souls
I’m not having anything to do with the Olympics this year. I have respect for everyone, disgusting how offensive this opening ceremony was to Christians. However did this get approved…….Surely people in France must be ashamed and embarrassed.
No matter what this Committee claims as their alibi, the DISRESPECT to many Catholics and Christians is in the fact that they made a mockery of a historical biblical event - the Last Supper was a Solomn ceremony of Jesus sacrificing His sacred body and blood then followed by His agony in the Garden, betrayal by Judas, carrying the Cross to Calvary and Crucifixion for the Salvation of the world. 🙏🌍🙏
I'm sure during Sodom & Ghonore, people thought they were celebrating love in all diversity and it was good until fire fall from the sky to cleanse everything. Are we looking for that again ?
I am saddened that this mockery of The Last Supper has not been a aired on our news networks. It's all over Social Media which is great. It's been quite successfully suppressed in my part of the world.
We as a group who are truly loving kind people of faith have to be completely aware that TIK TOK IS MONITORING THIS, please we pray the people who mock God, Bishop Barron thank you for being a wonderful shepherd 🙏🙏🙏
Enemies to our faith and us. We have allowed them to get this far. It's like they are slapping us with our own hands and asking, "Why are you hitting yourself?"
It was helpful to actually see the remarks and translations before Bishop Barrons’s comments. As always he is spot on. Lets continue to pray and fast for this outrageous offense to our Lord.
Their solidarity was with satan alone!!!! Their so called apology is an insult !! I am cancelling my tv licence. Well said Bishop!!! We should all pray 4 them !
Are the opening ceremonies for the Olympics a platform for personal or, in this case, French cultural bias? What happened to the IOC mission of encouraging and supporting the promotion of ethics and good governance in sport? Also, where, in this parody of the Last Supper, is the support of the education of youth through sport? The Olympic motto is, I understood, "cities, altius & fortius" (all directed at sports). So, how is this advanced by resorting to mockery of Christianity? This was total abuse of the international stage! The intent borders the criminal, not just the perverse. Who gave this green light? IOC President Thimas Bach & the IOC Board of Directors should issue an immediate APOLOGY and ban France from ever hosting any Olympics going forward. I'm only one, but, Mr. Bach, you've list a viewer.
Thank you Father. Their 'celebrations' offended family viewers and people of others religions and many fair minded atheists. Perhaps they did unite the world in an unintended way. Perhaps a wake up call, even a call to sainthood.
As a practicing Catholic this was offensive and intentionally mocked the last super before the crucification. If this type of behavior was done to any of the other major religions (e.g., Muslim, Jewish, etc.) everyone would be up in arms complaining about it. It is time to humbly stand and be counted, because if we don’t no one else will. I have always watched as much of the Olympics as time would allow, but not this year. By boycotting the 2024 games we can send a message. The games make their money off viewership and by not viewing it hurts them where they will feel it. SUPPORT THE ATHLETES, but BOYCOTT THE 2024 GAMES!
Why is it that when they offend people or find out people are not in agreement with their beliefs and behaviour, they always blame others. As a Christian I definitely not agree with this movement. But I would not agree to violence towards them. However they constantly insult and use violence in speech etc towards others, particularly the Christian faith. They know we try to maintain Christ's teachings so it's ok to mock us without fear. This time the mockery was of our Lord himself, what did they expect than for milions of people around the word to protest. Christians and other religions, even some atheists, saw this action by France and the Olympic committee as horribly inappropriate and offensive. God will not be mocked and He will act in His own way and time. God bless all who fight the good fight. 🙏🕊
Their goals were met, which included offending those who R not like them. They met all their goals but one goal which should and ought to have been included, was common decency. Another would have been to consider the audience which includes children and young adults who R easily influenced by what is shown on the public viewing screens. And another goal could have been a choreographed depiction of the OLYMPIC games, where Nations send their best athletes to perform on the international stage. Pardon my French, but they R full of doodoo! They R not apologizing. They R quite pleased with their extra seconds of airtime.
It was the Catholic Faith that made France strong and great; it was the "Republic" that brought France to it's knees in a gradual decline from 1789 on. Now you're at the mercy of Islamists who would have dealt France it's final and mortal blow had you done the same thing their religion.
As one of the 2.5 billion Christians, I take offense at this gross and depraved mockery.
Blessed be the Holy Face of Jesus.
Blessed be the Holy Name of God.
Blessed be the Sacred Body and the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true man.
Blessed be Jesus in Holy Sacrament of The Holy Eucharist.

Absolutely vile! There is no excuse.

God bless bishop barron he did what the pope didn't do
Thank you Bishop Barron for expressing the truth about it all.
The smirk on that dudes face would be wiped off quick if he offended Muslims.
It might get wiped off if he offends certain believers who fall short in their acceptance of evil.
It would be wiped off from his face because he would have no head. Remember the French teacher who was beheaded because sharing cartoon image of Muhammad.

It’s apparent that he confuses “loving” who they want with acting out their lust with whomever they want.
spot on
I encourage everyone to boycott watching the closing ceremonies. We still need to support our athletes by watching the sports.
Boicott and ignore the sosmed of the actress & actor who did mockery in the idiot olympic opening celebration.
Disgusted by their demeanor...
I'm sure during Sodom & Ghonore, people thought they were celebrating love in all diversity and it was good until fire fall from the sky to cleanse everything. Are we looking for that again ?
Finally someone stands up for the values of Christianity! Thank you Bishop Barron. I haven’t heard the pope speak out!!!!
“Paris will be burned and Marseilles swallowed up!” Our Lady of La Salette, 19th September 1846.
