Catholic Ministry Ad

19Dec, 2009

Two years ago, an angry Italian priest got Red Bull to pull the enclosed commercial on the grounds it is disrespectful to Christianity.

Father Marco Damanti, from Sicily, described the commercial as “a blasphemous act.” He complained that “The image of the sacred family has been represented in a sacrilegious way” and that “Whatever the ironic intentions of Red Bull, the advert pokes fun at the nativity, and at Christian sensitivity”.

As for me, I actually think it is intriguing to actually see the Christmas story reflected amidst the onslaught of Christmas advertising. And, not really understanding a word, I sorta enjoy this version.  But, if you want, here’s the English version as well.
