Why is Christianity allowed to be disrespected?

Drag Queens recreating The Last Supper at the Olympics opening. This would never be allowed with another religion.

A taste of its own medicine?

Because it’s created by the people who are part of that religion. The fact that we can make fun of our own (western) religion without fear of being put to death is a good thing.

by Anonymousreply 2July 27, 2024 1:51 AM

Also we all “make light of” ancient religion all the time. Greek mythology is considered a fairy tale now but people once took it as seriously as some people take Christianity now

by Anonymousreply 3July 27, 2024 1:53 AM

What do drag queens have to do with the Olympics let alone The Last Supper? Totally unnecessary .

If you choose to be offended by this, I feel sorry for you. Who really cares.

Sports are the opiate of the masses. Religion is the last refuge of the mentally ill.

Allowed? By whom? Christianity is an idea, as such it must be able to be viewed, discerned, contemplated, and enacted in whatever way(s) people choose. Any person, body, or government that claims to own or control an idea, or tries to use it to control people, is wrong no matter what they argue.

It’s way more a French thing than an American thing. Actually, it’s pretty much non American, as Americans have a very difficult time laughing at themselves.

Not the French! They can laugh at themselves AND Americans, all at once.

Also, fuck what some asshole on X thinks. The Olympic Gamers are international, & the host country and THEIR sensibilities are to be humored, NOT that of Americans or Christians, for that matter.

Games, not gamers. 😂

Yeah yeah yeah wake me the fuck up when they lampoon Islam that makes Christians look like an Act Up chapter from San Francisco in the 90's.

I am a protestant Christian, Episcopalian. I'm not offended. Religious stories and biblical events have been depicted a lot of different ways through the ages. This is one more. A living controversial tableau from French creatives teams. Les provocateurs, those French..

R25 did you just post a Charlie Hebdo cover....what was it...9 murdered over that cartoon? Doesn't that just kinda prove my point?

by Anonymousreply 32July 27, 2024 2:49 AM

That said. It definitely would not be allowed for any other world religion.

Maybe not Islam but Eastern Religious can and do make fun of their iconography all the time.

I posted the cover to make the point that the French do, in fact, mock other religions-- famously so.

Because we aren't theocratic nazis OP? Besides, who cares?

Wtf does this have to do with the Olympics. I’m mad confused. Is NBC that tone death. Pride month was in June so unless those are Olympic athletes why the fuck would they recreate an iconic Bible passage with trans people. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

I’m sorry, what did you say?

I was watching the “Wicked” cast, Kelly Clarkson and Snoop Dog at the Eiffel Tower.

What are these Olympics to which you’re referring?

I think it's a position of privilege to get this was light hearted and whatever. It's France! I'm glad the French aren't burdened by warped American morality! The things people get worked up about. 5 minutes of TV with people in outfits. Who the f cares?

It's entertainment, morons. Were the athletes going to dress up and dance?
