NBC uses "O Come All Ye Faithful" in sports ad (vanity)
NBC/YouTube ^ | 12/2014

I happened to see this on a television while at work recently, and could hardly believe it, at first. It really just seems more like the norm these days, though, which is sad indeed.

It figures this would be the only use they would have for a venerated religious Christmas song.

What shallow, unserious people they are.

It’s unfortunate that many are more faithful to their sports teams than they are to the King of Kings.

I saw it. I immediately thought it was tasteless and border line sacrilege. They substituted the stupid names of football players for the words of a religious hymn. They sure as hell would not do anything to offend gays ans Muslims, but Christians are fair game.

Liberals think they are God.

That is basically what secular humanism is as you might know... elevating made as God.

Correction. Elevating man as God.

Muslims hate dogs and music.

So there are no Muslim hymns to denigrate.

I would like to see an ad with a dog howling the muslim call to prayers and a bunch of pigs running into a mosque.

time to REWRITE history...that’s what Obama wants...so do the socialists that supports idiots like that...use a common song to advertise a soccer game and make it about coming to the soccer game...not thanking the Son of God for his birth and later death for our sins...

this is what they do - as sick and twisted as it is....

NBC stands for “Narcissistic Blasphemer of Christ”

Yet NBC did not use a single Christmas Carol which referenced the REAL reason for the season on last evening’s Michael Buble Christmas Special.

Wasting the abilities of a very talented performer in the process.

I grew up in central PA.....after the Jerry Sandusky pedophile scandal, I can indeed tell you the god of many people is football. Even at the expensive of little boys’ lives, football, Penn State, and Joe Paterno were the priority.

Sick. Evil. Disgusting. May God (the real One) have Mercy on us.
