Olympics Injustice: How to Rightly Respond w/ Fr. Rob

Catholic-Link Podcast

In this episode of the Catholic Link podcast. Fr. Rob and Fr. George discuss the Olympics Opening Ceremony that depicted the Last Supper in a blasphemous way. Fr. George and Fr. Rob explore ways that we can respond to when an injustice occurs. Find the median between the two extremes: unprovoked fury and unmoved by anything. They also analyze that they are not surprised by the Olympics, but are shocked. Fr. Rob and Fr. George encourage us to bring the message of Christ to the nations and spread devotion to the Eucharist.

Listen to the previous episode where. Fr. Rob, Fr. George, discussed how and why some of the Psalms ask God to enact God’s justice on his enemies. They explain how the Psalms are prayers. In some of these Psalms, the Psalmist asks God to enact his justice on those who offend God and hurt the people of Israel. This reminds us today that the Church, the new Israel, has enemies too. Jesus said, “Love your enemies,” but did not say to not have enemies. There are people who seek to destroy the Church. We obviously should pray for their conversion, but we have faith that God will enact God’s justice, give what is due to all.
