Harrison Butker's Comments on Olympics Opening Ceremony Goes Viral
Newsweek ^ | Jul 26, 2024 | Kaitlin Lewis

Kansas City Chiefs player Harrison Butker criticized a portion of the 2024 Olympics opening ceremony over social media on Friday that appeared to attempt to mimic Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper.

In between the participating countries being presented at the kick-off in Paris, several performances were presented that played off French cultural and history. One of the more controversial performances, however, was one where drag queens and other actors appeared to remake the scene of The Last Supper, which depicts the last meal that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples before he was crucified.

Butker posted a video to his X, formerly Twitter, account of the moment in question Friday evening, along with a Bible verse from Galatians, which says, "God is not mocked." At the time of publishing, the post had over 1 million views.

Butker also posted about the performance to his Instagram story, writing, "This is crazy." The NFL kicker received immense backlash earlier this year after speaking at Benedictine College's commencement on May 11, where he said that a woman's most important role is as a "homemaker" and he referred to Pride Month as an example of "deadly sins."

Pallie supporters burning the flag, chanting Death to America, and throwing feces at NPS personnel, no actions taken against them.

But a couple of teens deface a street mural pride flag with skid marks and they are facing a possible ten years in prison.

The opening ceremony was evidently designed by a gay jewish man named Thomas Jolly.

They’re not mocking a God they don’t believe in, they’re mocking we who do believe.

Now let’s see how many Christian clergy speak out against this abomination in their homilies tomorrow. The bet here is very few.

The French effectively ‘de Christianized’ their country during their Revolution

The effort was actually CALLED, ‘De Christianizetion’ of society and included (of course) the theft of church property and funds.

It’s how they kept themselves afloat during the chaos of the revolution. Faith never re covered there

Don't know, but it was obviously a very large and old research library.

Evil is not a mistake.

Evil is not an accident.

Evil is intentional.
