Land of Passion (1 of 2)
SYNOPSIS: Passion, art and feeling are the elements of this mosaic which sets out before our eyes the rich and varied universal culture of the peoples of Spain. From the innermost heart of this culture and passion for life springs an outburst of music, colour and art. This is a tribute to the creative capacity, the imagination and the fantasy of the human being. This is what the people of Spain here in Barcelona have to offer to this encounter with the world. The stadium echoes to a mighty thunder: 360 drums from the lands of Bajo Aragón raise the curtain on a thrilling spectacle as the drummers descend the steps of the stands. At the same time, 300 musicians from Catalonia and the Levante, the East of Spain, join with the drums in the centre of the stadium, as 200 "bailaoras" form a poetic half-moon which enters the great circle.
An allegory of Spanish painting and culture where we see Don Quixote, Meninas and figures from the paintings of Goya forming a giant retable created by Javier Mariscal, the designer of COBI. Plácido Domingo begins to sing a serenade of love to a mysterious woman. The mysterious woman appears, dressed in red and riding a fiery black stallion: it is Cristina Hoyos, one of the greatest flamenco dancers in the world. The fire of flamenco consumes the dancers; it is the outpouring of the feelings of a people, and Alfredo Kraus appears on stage to bid a musical farewell to this cultural mosaic of the land of passion.

The Olympics Are Pagan
Billions of people worldwide take part in games that are pagan.
When we look back where the games came from, we find they were held in honor of the Greek god Zeus. Note, only men were allowed. An competed nearly always in the nude. Now women had their games the Heraea, named for Zeus' wife, Hera. All this being around the Greek mythology. The pagan worship of their gods. This taking place in the city of Athens, Greece.
Being named after the the goddess Athena.
The pagan story says she had to compete with Poseidon for that honour. To prevent any divine bloodshed, Zeus devised a contest. So these so called gods, created the games. Poseidon created the horse, and Athena created the olive.
Our world today, these Olympic games are held every 4 years. The pagan festival is held in different parts of the world. You can look at the medals given out and see pagan symbols. They have medals containing the Greek goddess of victory. With the games highly riddled by drugs and corruption.
We can’t even enjoy in the fact these games are fair and these men and woman compete fairly.
With the corruption in the judging. Its been a wonderful mess over the last few years. An still we encourage the young people to take part in the Olympic games.
These pagan games encourages, competition and greed, along with the worship of idols. The Olympics causes addiction in sport to distract the elect. It wastes money, which is the goal of the international bankers who profit from the interest. It honors the Olympic spirit and the flame. This is a god of the Olympics. Worshiping other gods is diabolical in God's site. The Olympics is highly esteemed by men, therefore an abomination in the sight of God.
Our Holy Bible says
Luke 16:15 KJV And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
God does care how we worship Him; He gives specific commands about how He wants to be glorified according to His standards and not our own. It does matter whether or not we share in the celebration of this world's pagan activities. These Olympic games have the origins of pagan worship and are abominations to God.
Know these things and understand the games.
The Olympics are the following.
They come from the ruins of ancient Olympia for pagan worship of Greek gods.
They sing a hymn to honor the Greek god of Olympus.
They have a prayer to Zeus along with mystical chants,
and strange "vettas" worshipping a sacred earth...
They use the "sacred" flame, a worship to the Greek sun god.

The Olympics Are Pagan!
Hitler Helped
Here are unknown facts about the Pagan Olympics.
The Olympic Torch (Flame)
and Torch Relay!
Was created by Adolf Hitler
1936 Berlin Games Torch
The Nazis knew a good propaganda symbol when they saw one.
At noon on July 20, 1936, two weeks before the start of the Berlin
Games, a Greek “high priestess” and fourteen girls wearing
classical robes gathered in the ancient Stadium of Olympia, and
used parabolic mirrors to focus the sun’s rays on a wand until it
burst into flame. As a torch was kindled, a chant went up— “Oh fire,
lit in an ancient and sacred place, begin your race”— followed by a ceremony where one of Pindar’s Pythian odes was sung to ancient instruments. The so-called Olympic flame was then carried by 3,075 relay runners from Greece, passed from magnesium torch to torch (each one bearing the logo of the German arms manufacturer Krupp), until it finally lit a colossal brazier in the Berlin stadium before the Führer’s approving gaze.
In fact, this ceremony never occurred at the ancient Olympics.
The modern conception is a mishmash of two quite different
pagan traditions that Berlin’s masterminds—in particular,
Dr. Carl Diem, a leading German scholar who became head of
the organizing committee—had brilliantly reworked. Olympia,
like all ancient Greek and Roman sanctuaries, did have its own
eternal flame, which was kept burning for Hestia, goddess of the
hearth, in a building called the Prytaneion, or “Magistrate’s
House.” It was used to light all the sacrificial fires at altars
throughout the sanctuary. And some other ancient Greek cities
did have a lampadedromia, or torch race, as part of their local
festivals. At Athens, for example, young men wearing nothing but a diadem hung over their foreheads would race in relay teams from the port of Piraeus south of the city to the Acropolis, trying to keep a baton made of flaming reeds from the narthex plant alight until they reached the altar of Prometheus. It must have made a hypnotic sight from the Parthenon, watching the flames weaving like fireflies through the dark streets below. But no torch lighting, relay races, or other pyrotechnic shows ever made their appearance at the ancient Olympic Games.
The “revived” 1936 torch race perfectly fit the Nazi design for the Olympics as a showcase for the New Germany. With its aura of ancient mysticism, the rite linked Nazism to the civilized glories of classical Greece, which the Reich’s academics were arguing had been an Aryan wonderland. (They were particularly fond of the macho, warlike Spartans—Hitler was even inexplicably convinced that the peasant soup of Schleswig-Holstein was a descendant of Spartan black broth, a famously austere staple fed to the men in communal messes as they underwent their brutal training.) Hitler took considerable personal interest in the ritual, and pumped funds into its promotion: The Nazi propaganda machine covered the torch relay slavishly, broadcast radio reports from every step of the route, and filled the Games with the iconography of ancient Greek athletics. Afterward, the ceremony became permanently embedded in the popular imagination in part due to Leni Riefenstahl’s documentary of the Nazi Games, Olympia, which evocatively showed a Greek runner treading the gentle beaches of the Aegean at dusk.
Ironically, considering its repellent origins, the torch race has come to symbolize international brotherhood today, and remains a centerpiece of our own pomp-filled Olympic opening ceremonies.
(The most popular part of any Games, they are perennially sold out in advance.) Even more strangely, the mock-pagan ritual is still carried out in Greece. Every four years, local teenage girls gather at the temple of Hera at Olympia dressed in faux-pagan regalia—they even use parabolic mirrors to focus the sun’s rays—while runners transmit the flame across the globe, sometimes by airplane, boat, scuba, or camel-back, to each new Olympic stadium. Every summer, the German archaeologists now working at Olympia are peeved to distraction by the hundreds of tourists asking them every day to point out the site of this “ancient” torch-lighting ceremony.
Another Unknown Fact
The Nazis Propaganda
The Use of The Olympic Flag
Originally designed in 1913 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin,
the founder of the modern Olympic games.
The five interlocking rings (blue, yellow, black, green, and red respectively)
on a white field. They represent the five parts of the world which now
are won over to Olympism and willing to accept healthy competition.
It gained widespread popularity due to its promotion by Nazi Germany, in the 1936 games in Berlin. Olympic flags were hung along side the Nazi Swastikas.
