    Link: French church leaders, Chiefs’ Harrison Butker slam apparent drag ‘parody of Last Supper’ at 2024 Paris Olympics: ‘Mockery’

    ...Controversial Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker slammed the apparent 2024 Paris Olympics’ drag queen recreation of the “Last Supper” as “crazy” — as French religious officials denounced the performance as a “mockery” of Christianity...

    If the pervs really wanted to show how edgy & provocative they are, they'd mock the Prophet Muhammad (Propeller Beanie Upon Him).

    I saw this earlier and thought the same thing about Muslims. The left never ridicules or insults Islam because if they do it once it's pretty assured they'll never do it again, the left only goes after tolerant groups they know won't fight back.

    These weirdos mock a religion and if anyone anywhere says something, these weirdos would say 'don't judge me you racist slob.'

    Charlie Hebdo did and they are not exactly left-wing. But that magazine makes fun of everyone and everything, including the Catholic Chuch, which about 70% of the French Population adheres to.

    But the point was to express artistic expression without consequences in their version of freedom of speech. It was an interesting opening ceremony, especially with mixing Classical with Heavy Metal, the parody of the Last Supper, etc. It was classic French style where anything and everything is not off limits to be made fun of.

    To me, it was unusual and yet entertaining. The best part was Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, the lighting of the Calderon, the use of boats taking the athletes down the Saine River, and that mysterious runner with the torch going through Paris, mostly on rooftops. I would not call it the best opening ceremony, but it wil be remembered for a long time.

    Yeah, Charlie Hebdo had some fun and then paid the price. Has anyone in France made Muslim jokes since then?

    They mock Christianity because mocking Islam is clearly hazardous to your health.

    Just keep importing Muslims to France and don't worry about it

    Maybe, that would be a good reason to not mock Muslims
    Or maybe it’s christians who they feel most aggrieved by.
    I guess Butker doesn’t use social media much or he would know not to feed the trolls. Because that’s all they’re doing. Trolling people they already know don’t like them. Why give them the satisfaction?

    You can say whatever you want but Christian's aren't the ones that go and cut your head off for posting a cartoon.

    Just the sort of people that your party wants to import into this country

    Do you actually think every Muslim wants to kill gay people? Or do just think that’s a cute talking point?

    I think this is more along the lines of 'LGBTQ have been oppressed for millenia, now it's our turn:

    Yes. It's not like there is a very, very famous example of French people doing exactly that.

    I guess it makes sense that the leftists admire Muhammed and won't attack him. He was a brown pedophile...

    I'm not sure why the objectors are calling it a mockery of Christianity. I didn't watch the ceremony, but based on the reporting and pictures, it seems to me to be representing a very Christian message of peace and love between the wide diversity of humanity. The objections seem to imply that The Last Supper is only for white (ironically), cis men, which I'd suggest could be seen as much a mockery of the message of Christianity.

    As for being suitable for the whole family, maybe they would have preferred a dying torture victim, stripped mostly naked and nailed to a cross by his hands and feet?

    Purported to be is strangely fuzzy but he obviously would have been Middle Eastern. He was also an unmarried man, who hung around other men and liked to bless the little children by "laying on hands".

    For reference, that was mockery of Christianity. :cool:

    So, any depiction of people sitting in a line at a table is copying Leonardo, no matter how many people are in the image?

    Wouldn't Lennon's song, "Imagine", 'offend' Islam, as it describes a peaceful world absent religion?

    So a bunch of French people paid tribute to a Renaissance Italian painting of an event that may never have happened and certainly looked nothing like the painting.

    Its the end of civilization as we know it.

    Some people just wake up every morning scanning the internet for something to feed their inner rage.

    That interpretation of Christianity is very much out of fashion with some folk....if they ever believed it. Their version is basically an excuse to judge & hate. To be fair, that is very much in keeping with a LOT of the history of Christianity.

    all three religions believe in the same God, only one is trying to push their religion on our children via the government

    so in a political site, that is the one that will get the most feedback

    I condemn the bad acts of all Religions..... even my own

    do you condemn the bad acts of your own?

    Just because you hold nothing sacred, does not mean the rest of us hold nothing sacred.

    Well we know what happened if they put a homo in drag playing Jesus. People complain.

    What would have happened if they put a homo in drag playing Mohammad?

    Exactly what did Jesus do that you find so abhorrent as to mock him?

    lol hell why don't we include murderers and rapists too? Christianity isn't for straight white men. It's for people who act the way God expects them to act. Getting your ass pounded by some other guy while you dress up and pretend to be a woman is not that lol
