Several politicians from all across the globe have united in their condemnation of the mockery of the Last Supper, which happened during the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics. The mockery involved drag queens and artists replicating the Lord's Passion based on the painting by Leonardo Da Vinci. The drag queens took the role of the Apostles in the tableau, while a fat lesbian later identified as DJ and activist Barbara Butch took the role of Jesus Christ. U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) took to X, writing that "the mockery of the Last Supper was shocking and insulting to Christian people around the world. The war on our faith and traditional values knows no bounds today." Johnson expressed optimism despite this, adding in the same post: "But we know that truth and virtue will always prevail." He referred to a verse in the Gospel of Saint John, which reads: "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." (John 1:5) U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) also took to X to voice her opposition to the Paris Olympics opening ceremony and the people running it. She also accused the French National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF) of censoring footage of the blasphemous display. "The [CNOSF] has been hard at work taking down videos of their satanic, trans and occult opening ceremonies claiming copyright laws," Greene posted. "It's our First Amendment right to share these videos and our [outrage] over the anti-Christian Olympic opening ceremonies." (Related: Meta to ban "HATE SPEECH" during 3 major sporting events.) Even Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini could not help but put in his two cents. He posted a picture of the actual painting and the tableau featuring the drag queens on X for comparison. "Opening the Olympics by insulting billions of Christians around the world was a really bad start, dear French," Salvini wrote. "Seedy."

Organizers of opening ceremony issue half-baked apology

Even former U.S. President Donald Trump refused to hold back his criticism, openly expressing his disdain toward the opening ceremony during an appearance on "The Ingraham Angle" on Fox News. "I thought that the opening ceremony was a disgrace, actually. I thought it was a disgrace," Trump told program host Laura Ingraham. "I mean, they can do certain things. I thought it was terrible." Trump nevertheless promised that the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics "won't be insulting Christians." He continued: "We won’t be having a Last Supper portrayed the way they portrayed it." The pushback against the Paris Olympics' opening ceremony was kick-started by Marion Marechal, a member of the European Parliament. She wrote: "To all the Christians of the world who are watching the [Paris Olympics] opening ceremony and felt insulted by this drag queen parody of the Last Supper, know that it is not France that is speaking – but a left-wing minority ready for any provocation." The organizers of the opening ceremony ultimately issued an apology for the outrage caused by the blasphemous display – albeit it was a half-baked one. "Clearly, there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. On the contrary, I think … we really did try to celebrate community tolerance," said Anne Deschamps, spokeswoman for the Paris Olympics. "Looking at the results of the polls that we shared, we believe that this ambition was achieved. If people have taken any offense – we are, of course, really, really sorry." Thomas Jolly, the artistic director of the opening ceremony, distanced his tableau from any parallels to the Lord's Passion. According to him, it was meant to celebrate diversity and pay tribute to feasting and French gastronomy. "My wish isn't to be subversive, nor to mock or to shock," said Jolly. "Most of all, I wanted to send a message of love, a message of inclusion and not at all to divide." Head over to OutrageDepot.com for similar stories.
