So it’s ok for them to disrespect religion, but if somebody make a joke about them, they want them to be cancel. This world is shit.

[jonathanmuldrow]

I ain't even a religious person but that was some cheese 🧀

[Kanan]

Glad somebody called out CTG for capping! Dude be acting like he ain’t seen or heard nothing when it comes to the Higher Ups!

[shinji....]

charlamagne’s response to this situation is exactly why no one takes him seriously anymore 🤡 he loves faking like he lives under a rock 😒 to avoid giving his take on something

[orcktlf]

Sexualizing with kids around is just wrong and disgusting!!

[blueshinobi]

They knew exactly what they were doing!!!! 😠 they knew and did it don't fall for this piece of garbage apology.

[sidneyaugustin]

Why do they apologize, they damn sure know what the "F" they where doing... They keep taking this shit to far, I mean wtf is this suppose to be 🤯😩😈

[RideWithMe_xo]

It’s crazy that Jess reports on the news with no context whatsoever to what’s really happening.

[That_guy_antony_ware]

They were not recreating the last supper. That is what they were accused of. The painting they were recreating was Greek based and very explicit. No one gets stories right on this show

[Son]

I don’t get the mainstreaming of drag queens. It’s cool in a niche setting (VH1, NYC club), but does it need to in the opening of an Olympics ceremony?

[_theycallmenate]

Folks gotta start reading more.... Its Greek Mythology.... The Olympics started in Greece 🤦🏿‍♂️.

[vidaarinwine]

Dearest Gentle Reader,

I’m about to step on some toes in regard to the Opening Ceremony at the Paris Olympics.

The headless woman was Marie Antoinette. She ruled over France and was found guilty of treason, conspiracy, and stealing from the country.

Sound familiar?

Also, it was not the Last Supper. It was a depiction of an ancient Greek Bacchanal… because, you know, the Olympics are ancient and Greek. Surprise!

And if you didn’t know, a Bacchanalia is an uncontrollably promiscuous, extravagant, and loud party. The parties often spanned several days which honored the god of wine, Bacchus (the blue guy covered in grape vine). He is also known as Dionysus, the Greek god of fertility, later known as the god of wine and pleasure.

And finally, it was not Death on a pale horse. It was Sequana, Goddess of the Seine, the River in which the boat precession took place. She was meant to be the representation of the Olympic spirit and of Sequana.

If some of you weren’t so busy trying to end the Dept. of Education, you might know this.

Loosen the clutch on your pearls.

Yours truly,
Lady Francis

I never thought my post, or views on what I had researched for myself, would go viral.

I hope that if you’re reading this, that you do your own research. You do not have to agree with me. What a boring world this would be if we all thought the same! In America, we have the freedom to share our views and opinions- but they are not without consequences. All I ask, is that you’re kind to one another.

Yeah nbc need to be heavily and I mean HEAVILY fined for allowing that. An areola got Janet 50k in fines, he should get at least double. That’s crazy

[shevey]

The French has always been open about nudity and sex, so why are people acting surprised? I am a Christian in the last 8 years that word has been damaged because of politics! People continue to have selective outrage and it's a joke. People need to learn how to respect people's cultures as well as understanding that not everyone follows the same belief system as your own. Get Over It!

[bruceharrison]

I need to see some corrections to this story across all media. It's called Feast of Dionysus which is a painting in France.

[manzei]

Crazy how an unmarried man (Dr Umar) has so much to say about other people's marriages

[MaryDoe-wrmu]

It’s not last supper. It’s the Greek god 🤦‍♀️

[annzeeg]

A lot of people didn't see the opening ceremony

[nitmare]

This is why they will never be treated equal. They embarrass themselves and they tend to be very disrespectful to everyone that's not like / have the same beliefs like them.

[philwin]

Double standard for the ABC’s. “It’s cool when they do it, it’s a problem when I do it!” *Finesse2tymes voice
