Paris organizers defended the Olympics opening ceremony on Sunday amid backlash over the apparent mocking of The Last Supper during the performance.
The opening ceremony drew condemnation from American leaders, world leaders, Christian groups and athletes alike over its depiction of one of the most revered events in Christianity.
The ceremony’s segment appeared to resemble a depiction of The Last Supper, famously painted by Leonardo da Vinci. The performance ensemble included drag queens, a transgender model and a naked singer who was stylized to resemble the Greek god Dionysus.
Paris 2024 spokesperson Anne Descamps spoke about it on Sunday.

This is not about offended people.
The problem here is about the Global Olympics ceremony celebrating Satan and Satan’s work openly and literally nakedly in front of the world and presenting it as appropriate and normal.
It is about presenting at the Olympic Games a mockery of the most sacred expression of sacrifice, the Eucharist, the death of God’s son Christ our Lord, who died for our sake, to save these very sinners and all of us.
This heinous perversion of the most sacred sacrifice of our Lord is not an artistic expression. It is an IMPIETY: a lack of respect, for God and religion.
The perversts responsible for this abomiation will answer to the Lord Almighty for this heinous and disgusting display of Satanic mockery of the Sacrifice of Christ.
The community tolerates the thumb in its eye.
Paris 2024 official believes opening ceremony goal of showing community intolerance was achieved despite furor
Was that what it was about - showing tolerance?! I don’t think so!
Congratulations, sick idiots!
Christians being meek
We want to see obscene mocking of Muhammad for the finale
To observe tolerance
Most have tolerance for LGBTs of any kind. That tolerance, however, rapidly goes to the negative side when they demonstrate disrespect, perversity, and just plain repulsiveness. The Olympics display gain a hell of a lot more negatives. Negatives which are thoroughly deserved.
As usual, “Get an effing room” was the best thing that could have been done. Earth to the sickos - if you’re so damned brave, try making fun of a certain religion of hate. I’ll enjoy watching the results.
It means shut up.
Tolerate seems like something you do silently, you “tolerate” it, you don’t put it on stage front and center and sell it, advertise it, and promote it like it is the greatest thing going.
Clearly “tolerance” does not involve respecting others’ religious beliefs.
Wait for the CLOSING ceremony......I wouldn’t put it past ‘em to perform a human sacrifice to satan.......whatever they do I won’t be watching that’s for sure.
Tolerance by crapping on others
No, it did show tolerance. Tolerance of evil. That was the point.
The left don't like hate, because they don't like hatred of evil. The left don't like intolerance, because they don't like intolerance of evil. The left like inclusivity, because they like including evil.
Etc.
The cities were abandoned, and the forests echoed song
They danced and lived as brothers, they knew love could not be wrong
Food and wine they had aplenty and they slept beneath the stars
The people were contented and the gods watched from afar
But the winter fell upon them and it caught them unprepared
Bringing wolves and cold starvation and the hearts of men despaired…
No quarter for predators
They just blew off the beliefs of 25% of the world’s populace,
but I guess that’s okay as along as Satan rules.
Reminds me of how our government has been going as of late.
What are people saying in Europe? Are they all like the Left in the U.S.?
