Why are Christians insisting the opening ceremony depicted The Last Supper when it really was the Feast of Dyonisus?

The horse in the Seine represented the goodness of the Seine (don’t remember her name) delivering the torch, the same way the boats delivered the athletes.

Did not of y’all even take French lit and culture?

Olympic authorities have said it was a depiction of the Feast of Dyonisus. How is this still a controversy? Do facts not matter at all to these people? At least one Christian pastor seemed to figure out what really happened.

Reverend Benjamin Cremer, based in the US, shared a post on social media which dispelled the allegation that the controversial scene featuring drag queens was mocking Leonardo da Vinci's classic painting and therefore Christianity.

The post reads: 'It was a representation of the event called the Feast of Dionysus. Greek God of festivity and feasting and ritual and theater.'

It seems as if Christians are very invested in feeling persecuted and disrespected these days. Seems like some people are actually just riling up the base.

Sounds like producers trying to be clever and spin. It was very clearly intended to mock Christianity.

Can you tell me where this Blue Guy exists in the Bible? I mean, it's "very clearly intended to mock Christianity" so which book of the Bible talks about the Blue Guy?

The book of Tobias #arresteddevelopment

So our radical evangelical republican Christians are outraged, similarly to radical Muslims?
So these groups are behaving similarly?
Am I understanding that correctly?
American evangelical Christians are philosophically equivalent to fundamentalist Islamic Muslims?
Because they are both reacting to the opening ceremonies in similar fashions.
That’s where we are in the timeline?
What a world.

It’s because they both believe Jesus is to be respected unlike the French and the LGBTQ

!!!

Not sure what the !!! are about. Jesus is a revered prophet in the Quran. Issa (Jesus) is a common Muslim male first name.

I'm beginning to think they WANT to be offended.

They want to be victims, then they b**ch when they're treated like victims. There's no winning! They want to skip the oppression and go straight to protected class. Line jumpers.

Ummm....please take a break from DCUM - it's not just American Christians who were offended. You just happen to be on an American Forum limited to the views of the DCUM community who live in America.

I didn't say only American Christians were offended. Again, read.

But the criticism and jokes are only toward the Christians that are upset.

My question is: why?

Well I can only speak to this thread. Because the Muslims aren’t on here being whiny snowflakes.

They could be on here. How would you know?

I didn’t say they weren’t on here. I said they weren’t being whiny snowflakes.

And I wouldn’t know if they are on here. Because, again, whiny snowflakes.

I think we finally answered the question "is our children learning?" I see children who were left behind every day. Every day.

Why is it easy pickings to pick on Christians and what do you think Christians will do once they realize their religion is under attack by the mainstream? Liberals literally want drama and call for it. It’s like they want to lose elections and get a hard Christian right winger government. For the love of God, leave well enough alone as a progressive.

You’re pushing a boundary when mocking one of the biggest religions on Earth let alone two of them.

What was the reason?

LOL, yeah Muslims have it so easy. They're only threatened by a major political party in the US. Constantly demonized at every turn and if there's a mass killing spree, they have to pray it wasn't a Muslim so they don't ALL get blamed while you get to hear the "mental illness" defense if it's a white Christian (which is most of the time) and only that individual is blamed for it

You really have your head up your own a$$ and it's quite obvious that you've been so pampered as a Christian that a f***ing performance is enough to make you think you're a victim. Tell us about the "War on Christmas," too, and how it's like being r*ped when greeted with "Happy Holidays."

Those poor misunderstood Muslims who toss gays off buildings, cover their women from head to toe, invade other countries and rape women, children and the elderly, and stone women who get raped. The only reason they worry about who commits violence is because it is usually them.

That’s why they aren’t messed with.

Because they do these things and sadly with the way liberals keep mocking Christians, I’m not going to be surprised if Christians fight back and I will solely lay the blame at the LGBTQ+ (plus what?) and Democrats for it

Way to follow the actual teachings of your Messiah.
