Candace Cameron Bure is heartbroken over the Olympics opener

“It felt too important not to [speak up] and I love the Olympic Games, I love them. My husband [Val Bure] is a two-time Olympic medalist, so is my brother-in-law, and my father-in-law is a three-time Olympic medalist,” Cameron Bure, 48, said in a Sunday, July 28, Instagram video. “I have many friends that have competed in Games over the years and it’s something as a kid I have always loved … the Olympic Games have always brought me so much joy.”

She continued, “It’s the best of the best athletes in the world competing for the title, so to watch such an incredible event that’s going to take place over the next two weeks and see the opening ceremonies complexly blasphemed and mock the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper was disgusting.”

For Cameron Bure, she was disheartened to see the dancers allegedly “mock” her religion.

“It made me so sad and someone said, ‘You shouldn’t be sad. You should be mad about it,’” the Full House alum added. “I’m like, ‘Trust me, it makes me mad, but I’m more sad because I’m sad for souls.’ I pray for my heart to break over what breaks God’s heart and I just think about all the people that have rejected the gospel of Jesus Christ or don’t know the gospel of Jesus Christ. In the Bible, in Galatians, it says, ‘God is not mocked for whatever a person sows he will also reap because the one who sows … will reap destruction from the flesh.’”

Why does anyone take into account the irrelevant opinions of a fifth rate actress who doesn't have any knowledge on theology or history, makes silly sitcoms and Z-grade films and is about as exciting as watching paint dry? The opening ceremony was just badly organized and haphazardly performed, so they added a few elements that would get people to talk about it as if it had been great. It was a stupid gimmick and we should see it for what it is: nothing of substance.

Personally, I don't understand why they added that lame re-enactment of The Last Supper, when it has nothing to do with France at all (the painting is in Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan and was commissioned in 1495 by Ludovico Sforza), and it's not in any way related to the Olympic games. It was just a tacky attempt at provocation to compensate for how shitty almost everything else was, and while it has worked in our current Offended By Everything culture (in which, as we can see, conservatives engage as enthusiastically as liberals), it doesn't have any deeper meaning.

In short, much ado about nothing - and by this I refer to the dismally bad job that the French organization did, as well as Candace's ignorant, dumb opinion.

I looked her up on YouTube as I had a vague recollection of her, but didn't remember details.

I came across two interviews: one where she's being interviewed by her brother Kirk about how 'awful' she found being the lone conservative voice on The View, but that she did it with God's help and she loves being friendly and talking to people regardless of their views, because that's the Christian way. Then another interview where Kirk was talking to Megyn Kelly about the Hallmark channel thing and how his sister is the loveliest, sweetest person.

And it got me thinking that truly nice people don't need interviews telling people they're nice (or get their brother to do it for them). I bet she's a nightmare behind closed doors. Those 'super sweet' types with the painted on smiles always are.

A few others pointed out that Candace would be pushing the "no sex before marriage" mantra and maybe that's why he was so quick to get married early. It could be that, but it could also be that she was applying pressure on him getting married soon as the eldest son. After all, she married young and probably sees it as the "right" thing to do.

I also noticed her usually cutesy smiley demeanour doesn't exist in the video. Instead she has a sneer on her face because she's clearly pissed off by the "blasphemers" and hence can't contain her disdain. My earlier comment about her likely being a nightmare behind closed doors definitely feels accurate after watching that weird display.

I just saw this on a friend’s Facebook feed and thought it would be worth posting.

“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

Candace is most likely a closeted Bull Dyke Lesbian. That's the only reason people like her turn to religion so ferociously. It's the only thing keeping her from thinking about having a big snatch in her face to eat all day.

[quote] My take on the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony. Since posting, many have tried to correct me saying it wasn’t about an interpretation of DaVinci’s The Last Supper, but a Greek god and the festival of Dionysus; who is a god of lust, insanity, religious ecstasy, ritual madnes etc. I still don’t see how that relates to unifying the world through competitive sports and acceptable for children to watch. In any case, I’m not buying it.

Shut up you fucking cunt.

[quote]Jodie and the actress who played Kimmy, Andrea Barber, are very close (they host a podcast together). I get the sense that’s always been the case and Candace was always sort of her own entity.

Actually, I saw something where they've spoken about this before and Andrea and Candace were always close, and Jodie was on the outskrits, like a kid sister, mirroring the show. I don't think Jodie kept up with Andrea and Candace that frequently in the years following the show. It seems at some point, guessing around the reboot, Andrea and Jodie became closer and distance started to grow with Candace. I'm assuming it was probably because Candace increasingly became a problematic, hateful, cunt.

I've recently seen a lot of interviews of and about Jodie Sweetin and she seems like a solid person. I found it interesting that on more than one occassion people praised her as a kid for having phenomenal comedic timing. Both Dave Coulier and John Stamos tell stories about how when they first did the table read for Full House, they were worried both worried about Jodie because she was so good. After the read, Stamos pulled Coulier aside and tried to plot a way to get Jodie off the show, because he was worried she was going to upstage them.

I didn't really watch Full House, but from the little Ive seen, she didn't impress me that much. Anyone else watch it and think she was a comedic genius?

No, it’s not Andrea who has the faith podcast, R148. Candace does. Andrea cohosts a podcast with Jodie, and both seem very liberal.

I’ve also heard the stories about everyone thinking Jodie was going to be the breakout star. Apparently she was precociously bright, an early reader, and had perfect comic timing even in that first year, when I believe she was like four or maybe five.

R163 Indeed. She strikes me as the type who hates it when people don't think she's sweet or kind. She truly believes she's the most virtuous person that ever lived because of her undying devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ and she plays the victim when someone calls her out. See her spat with Jojo Siwa as an example. I can't stand Siwa either to be honest, but when she called Candace out, she said something like "it really hurts me when people think I would ever want to cause offence, because I'm so nice and friendly, I love everyone, how could anyone ever think badly of sweet lil me? :( :( ".

My mother is a practising Catholic but she's not a fundie, so she keeps her faith to private prayer and going to church once a week. She doesn't reference God or her faith at any other time. It's when people make religion part of everything that it comes across as crazy. Examples being quoting Bible verses in social media profiles, or constantly referencing God in everything - eg if they do something good, it's always labelled as "I did this because of the strength the Lord gave me. He sent me on this path to test me, but he knew I could prevail with His strength". They just sound odd and totally brainwashed.

There absolutely hasn't been backlash "all over the world" R5. The only whining and complaining has specifically come from American Christians. All of this "backlash" has been purposely created, curated and amplified by the hard right-wing media such as Murdoch media, News Max etc. Real people in other countries don't give a flying fuck about this and look down on American Christians hatred of everything and everybody else with disgust and embarrassment.
