2. To broadcast such a deeply offensive and blasphemous clip about God & Our Blessed Mother Mary during the Christmas season on ‘NYE Countdown Show' on @RTE , @RTEOne & on Eve of the Solemn Feast of Mary, Mother of God is insulting to all Catholics and Christians. @deeforbes_dee

1. I am shocked that producer/editor of 'NYE Countdown Show' @RTE @RTEOne didn’t realise how deeply offensive was a mocking 'news report' accusing God of rape & reporting his imprisonment. This outrageous clip should be removed immediately & denounced by all people of goodwill.

Evil is already prowling around our land - destroying life; stealing away happiness; stirring up violence and discord. Such evil seeks to snuff out the memory of ‘the rock from which we were hewn’; if we lose our spiritual memory we lose our sense of identity; we lose our way.
