Which figure, later associated with Lennon's murder, was infuriated by the remarks and called them blasphemous?

• A. Mark David Chapman
• B. Bob Dylan
• C. Mick Jagger
• D. Jim Morrison

Answer: (A)

The person is Mark David Chapman. He is the figure who would later be linked to John Lennon’s murder, and he was furious about Lennon’s remark—that The Beatles were more popular than Jesus—and described those comments as blasphemous. This reaction ties the controversial statement to the individual who carried out the crime. The other figures listed are well-known rock musicians but have no direct connection to Lennon's murder or to the specific reaction described.
