If a person looks hard for negativity and doesn't find it, they'll create their own.

Maybe you're not normal. i can't see why any normal person would get so upset over some parts of an opening ceremony. It is just some entertainment before the games begin. You can't see why someone would get upset over a group of drag queens depicting The Last Supper ? What if they were makin fun of a different religion ? Normal people would not be offended. I have seen Mel Brooks mock the last supper in a movie. Seen 100s or parodies of the last supper in my lifetime. Does this parody of the last supper offend you? This one?

I didn’t see the reported portrayal of “The Last Supper”, so I can’t say a lot about it. I would believe it would be disgraceful of something most Christian’s revere as a sacred remembrance. At this point, I wouldn’t worry a whole lot about it. Vengeance is pretty much God’s to parse out.
In today’s world, there’s a host of things we have to consider to refrain from “hurting” others; ethnicity, looks, age, attire, body size, and culture.
Yet the Christian faith is still pretty much fair game for everyone.
Today’s entertainment, runs the gamut of tastes. Choose what you’re most interested in and skip the rest.

Is it true they did a drag queen last supper reenactment? Someone just texted me asking if I heard about it. Yes they did. Also a drag fashion show in front of the drag last supper. Surprisingly it was a large portion of the opening ceremonies

Also do not believe that there is no absolute right or wrong..... someone is going to get a surprise in the end.

I don’t see how someone can see a drag depiction of the Last Supper as anything but degenerate, when offered in the context of official French governmental display showcasing to the world the height of Western culture. It should be absolutely embarrassing.
From a more detached perspective, it reenforces that the West is basically a continuation of Greco-Roman culture. Maybe Rome never really fell. It just kept changing capitals from 476 onward.

Yeah, nothing going on there worth mentioning. There's roughly 8.3 billion people in the world. By your logic 80% or so could give a shit less.
