In a rural church in the Netherlands, the candles, the piano, even the pastor's robes were all turned orange on Sunday as the congregation prayed for Dutch courage and teamwork ahead of this evening's FIFA World Cup final against Spain. (July 11)

  • Disgusting.  These aren't priests, thay are minstrel showmen.

  • I agree with this comment; the sentiments behind all those vulgar words! Deep frustration & non-objective. The "explosion" of ideas & beliefs become too personal failing to connect with people respectfully while perceiving the issues in relevant context. Beyond this, the "hatred" 4d Catholic Church is rooted in Christ's crucifixion - he was with sinners, outcasts & lowly & spoke boldly. Of this world, who wants to accept Truth? Folly, Fantasy, Vanity & Complacency r accomplices against Truth.

  • Das ist nicht KATHOLISCH sondern DIABOLISCH!!!

  • who gives a fuck

    god understands

    non dutch fuck off

  • I understand the excitement for this team, but Church is for worship of God, not this sort of revelry

  • Why not just "kick" the hosts out to the "fans" and shout "goal!" when they catch them? To think that their Dutch Catholic ancestors nurtured their faith secretly after the Reformation, for the likes of this.

  • Wanna see a decent Dutch Catholic Church Service? Look at my account, a number of fine examples including a full Christmass eve Mass can be found there.

  • What a bunch of heretics! Novus ordo missae is not catholic!!!!!!!

  • @MytubeCasadeMono

    "I think you need a shrink or somebody who tells you what God really means with the world, instead of your infantil few on this"

    That's the beauty of this situation, it isn't my opinion against yours, it is your opinion against the Catholic Church, which judged this appropriately.

    What about what I said makes me a racist?

  • @MytubeCasadeMono

    "but for Dutch people, a church is not holy or something."

    If it is a Catholic Church, it is not a "Dutch" Church, but a universal Church.

    "And if you extreme-right rascist conservative not understand how we see this in a progressive country as the netherlands, that is your problem."

    If that man in the video is a Catholic priest, in communion with Rome, it's Catholic doctrine and law that matters, not the progressivism of the Netherlands.

  • @MytubeCasadeMono

    I wasn't honestly insisting God influenced the game.

  • @EruditeWarrior sure... if God had influence on football, why would germany ever win a game again ? they deserve more punishment
