Catholic Bishop Robert Barron (@BishopBarron) condemns blasphemous Opening Ceremony for Paris Olympics:
“Would they ever have dared mock Islam in a similar way?
This deeply secularist, post-modern society knows who its enemy is—they’re naming it—and we should believe them.” pic.twitter.com/0AyyIblx6E— Bree A Dail (@breeadail) July 27, 2024
Of course the answer is no, and that is true not just because Muslims will kill over blasphemy and Christians will not, but also because they hate Christianity and love Islam. This is partly because they hate Christianity so much that they love Islam because it also hates Christianity, and because the left and Islam are both authoritarian, universalist forces.

There was one comment in Breitbart I saw that said, “Who woulda thought the French could do something to make me root for the Muslims? We’re talking different variations of evil.”
Pretty much. If there is a major jihad attack in the Olympics, I think I’ll just yawn. muslims vs these guys is just another edition of Alien vs Predator
GE says
+?

I LOL’ed when i read that french railway lines were sabotaged. The stupid weak and woke French deserve it. Whoever did it deserves a medal.

The problem is that this would just embolden Islam.
Eric says
Christianity is also bad for western countries
SC says
This is what happens when your leadership is more interested in pretty red robes and prada shoes than doing God’s work. Those same leaders conceal child abuse and other clergy crimes. They are now woke and condone aberrent behavior while at the same time they punish priests to the point of excommunication for criticising the leadI/ership. Even as an outsider I know who a true God wants on his side. It is not the christian religion just the corrupt leaders that invite this criticism. Christianity has lost its respect. Islam kills to force others to respect it.

Few respect Islam. Fear is not respect.
And I don’t think that Christians brought this mockery on themselves. This is not actually attacking an failings of Christian churches, but Christianity itself.
They just know that Christians are not going to respond violently as Musliims would do.
Eric says
Few? Zero respect Christianity
This is why things like this happens, people insult Christianity.
Paul Burns says
France has been getting it good and hard for many years now and the perverts seem to like it. Ever since the days of Voltaire and Marquis de Sade it’s been descending into perdition.
Jo Alex SG says
I couldn’t agree more. I’m an eclectic pagan but have noticed the blatant hypocrisy of pro-Islamic leftists who love to insult Christianity while appeasing to Muslim supremacists who would gladly kill them all if they could, the best example of this suicidal insanity and digusting hypocrisy being ‘Queers for Palestine’ but of course not only since many ‘artists’ follow suit.
KoshsShadow says
‘Queers for Palestine’ is like “chickens for KFC” – Bibi Netanyahu
A bit incorrect, as KFC does not want to kill all chickens, but it does have the right ideal

Good analysis, Jo.
KoshsShadow says
‘Would they ever have dared mock Islam in a similar way?’
Of course not, because Christians won’t blow you up if you do.

Mr. Spencer writes, in part, “they hate Christianity and love Islam. This is partly because they hate Christianity so much that they love Islam because it also hates Christianity, ”
Jesus Christ said, in part, “You will be objects of hatred on account my Name.” And, “The world hates you because it hated me first.”
40 rounds says
Yes, and one day the left is going to have to do battle with Islam because they cannot “coexist.” Right now God and the right are the enemies.
somehistory says
And then, “Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death.”
Lady of the Lake says
I was about to say “where is the pope on this”?… But then I remembered that the present pope sanctions this crap and his blessing of immorality likely played a big part in this
gravenimage says
Some high-ranking Catholics have been quite vocal on this, but so far as I can tell the Pope has been silent.
Eric says
Ummm NO!
deze MN bee says
In the Camp of the Camps:
The Olympic Gaymes.
James Lincoln says
The usual crickets from Pope Francis.
Paul Burns says
Absolute silence also from the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby who spends all his time apologising for being a white Christian European.

Roman Catholic bishop on Olympic ceremony: ‘Would they ever have dared mock Islam in a similar way?’
…………………………..
I had missed this grotesquerie until now–but I looked it up. Who could *possibly* believe that this was appropriate to have at the *official Olympic opening ceremonies*, which is supposed to be dedicatd to uniting people?
And *of course* they never would have considered mocking Islam in any way.
Glen R. Cook says
I wish I could gotten a transcript of the interview ! That way I could have passed this on!
OLD GUY says
I was looking forward to watching the Olympics but have lost all interest. Why would the Olympic Committee allow this insult to Christians around the world to be part of the ceremony? Has the Pope made any comment or any of the other Christian leaders spoke out against this insult? If NOT WHY?
