Fair point...

I guess Christians have to up their game if they can't take a joke at their expense.

That mocking of Christ at the Last Supper wasn't a 'joke'.
For Christians it was blasphemy.
And there is a time and place for everything.
The Olympics, where people are supposed to be playing nice
and coming together ... is NOT the place to mock Christ,
or Muhammad (who was nothing more than a mass murdering
caravan thief), or Buddah or any other religion.

Too bad we don't have adherents of Greek mythology here they'd probably feel mocked and blasphemed too...

The intolerant rhetoric often coming from religious people, certainly helped people to give a # about their hurt feels...

Mocking Christ ... someone whom 1/3 of the worlds population believes is God incarnate ... is out of place at the Olympics where people are supposed to be coming together in peace and friendship. It was unnecessary and bad judgement to do so.

Yeah but my feelz are important...

Maybe they see things because Christianity is just a cheap knock off


It seems more like people who've never read the Bible, paintings of the last supper and aren't aware of Olympic history Greek Mythology/Classics getting feelz hurt and playing grief olympics over nothing.

I was raised RC, went to religious schools and colleges and while not practicing/don't think Jesus was the son of god; I still think he was an awesome guy with great teachings (unlike the old testament god) and the float is nothing like the last supper.

It was an uneccessary woke/LGBT reminder of how homosexuality/trans/bi was normal and loads of gods/greek classics/philosphers were gay or changed sexes to see men or women enjoyed sex more but nothing remotely like the catholic/christian last supper.

There's a push to normalize depravity. Always has been. The public is being groomed much the same way abusers groom their victims.

Apparently, the IOC decided to discriminate against Jews too.

They can't wear pins that represent the hostages.

Now I know a few of you know my views on the war but I still support freedom.

Unless they ban ALL symbols (which they haven't), it should have been allowed.

Just because this new ultra-left ideology isn't officially called a religion - it is one.

The IOC has chosen ONE ideology (aka as religion) and has banned/mocked others.

Question for all the males on ATS.

Is it possible to not realized one of them is totally hanging out?

I'm mean you would feel the air and lack of material, right?

Maybe if you were just unzipped but totally hanging out? I

I'm thing he could have turned, put his hand there or quickly re-tucked?

Even if you believed that it was STILL a political statement and those activities aren't allowed at the Olympics.

If a Muslim country hosts, are you going to be cool with them doing a little comedy routine about women being subservient to men or Zionism?

You are only fine with it because it fits within YOUR belief system.

What exactly is my belief system?

FACT: Olympics — Greek — ALL festivals are based on Life (crops-birth-death).

LOL — you’re trying to pigeonhole morality from 776 BC by your current concept?

You do know they participated naked — right?

If Muhammad had been mocked, there would be blood in the streets already. But they mock Christianity and Christ because they know they can get away with it. Absolutely disgusting! Mocking anyones religion has no place in the Olympics. That kind of crap is for satire pages in political magazines and newspapers.

I agree this is an insult to Christians and disgusting. I probably will not watch the Olympics very much as a result.

A lot of what I keep visualizing for those who support mockery is not suitable to be posted here so I will refrain from saying more. This was a good way to make me not watch the Olympics.
