Catholic Bishop Robert Barron: I love the Olympics, so I watch the Olympics ceremony. What do I see? It’s Paris, France, the city I love. I spent three years there as a doctor.

France sent Catholic missionaries all over the world. France, whose culture, and I mean the honor of the individual, human rights and freedom, is very much based on Christianity, thought that the right thing to do was to ridicule the Christian faith...
