Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on last night’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” show:
On last night’s Jimmy Kimmel show on ABC, they did a skit about the nativity scene where they crossed the line. Referring to the Shroud of Turin, believed to be the burial cloth of Jesus, as “the shroud of urine,” is needlessly offensive.
This was not a mistake. A mistake would be to insult any world religion other than Christianity. When it comes to Christians, sticking it to them is exactly what we would expect from the entertainment industry. No matter, this is still a new low for Jimmy Kimmel.
