Indeed. There's a risk that I'll be misunderstood when I say, "Yes, and?" It's not dismissive on my part. Rather, I'm not surprised by this, and I've watched even worse things transpire in this world. Others here have as well. 

I decided to investigate this and what I found only affirms what I knew: what was done is attributed to how things are done in Paris. This was from the mouths of those who did it. They're right, but it's not limited to Paris. It's all over the place, and I suppose where I may differ from many of you has to do with my understanding that it's nothing new under the sun. They mocked our Lord before His death on the cross. 

I know it did not come out of nowhere, but I was shocked at how in your face it was. It was truly glorifying filth. My husband went ballistic over the drag queen last supper. I didnt recognize it until he explained it. I was also offended at the depiction of marie antoinette, sans head, but I am sensitive to violence.

I haven't watched it, sister. I was first exposed to drag queens in the city of Atlanta during the early 1980s. There was quite a "community" of drag queens in certain areas of the city proper. I'm not desensitized to the depravity of mankind. No... I'm moved to sorrow for their sake. Drag queens are precisely the sort of person I will visit with and serve. Their vile misconduct doesn't move me nor shake me from what I do. That's what they expect to do to us after all... when this doesn't work, they drop their grotesque facade. That's when the pain comes out and I weep for their sake.

This perversion is disgusting and hurtful, as intended. Ever wonder why they do not mock Buddha, Brahma, Shiva, Allah or Muhammad, only Jesus?

John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

The presence of those scoffers, mockers, and jeers, functions as one evidence of many that His coming is near.

2 Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

We witness this everywhere: opening up a session of Congress praying to Brahma, closing the pagan prayer with A Man and A Woman, lighting up the White House in gay pride colors, government officials naming Christians a basket of deplorables, special protection and rights for perverts, antisemitism, to name a few, and it is globally.

One need only read 2 Timothy 3:1-5 and compare that to politicians, globalists, liberals, Hollywood, sports, and the left of today with the climate and culture at large.

We are to occupy until He comes, and…

Matthew 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

I genuinely believe our redemption draweth near.

That presentation, from the pictures I saw of it, was an abomination.  The Olympics is a form of entertainment for the rest of us.  Filth has been seeping into entertainment for years.  Remember Bugs Bunny?  He would dress in drag and kiss people to insult them.  My parents knew that was unwholesome to watch and would turn it off.  Daffy Duck would talk to a dummy duck about showing it 'his etchings' a euphemism for sex.

I didn't watch it live but I have seen parts of it on a couple of podcasts I frequent.   I am expecting the Lord to deal with it.  Problem I have is I don't have a clue who set it up and/or approved it.  I do firmly hope the Lord will deal with it himself.

After I heard about it, I did watch YouTube videos showing it...with Christian commentators.

In the comments under the videos even some atheists, agnostics and non-Christians were offended by it.   One atheist said he was crying out for God's mercy.

One video showed the "creator" of the blasphemous scene.   He is a Woke, gay guy.   He said he wanted everyone to feel inclusive.    I guess everyone but Christians!

The Olympics are now scrubbing all of the videos....I guess they didn't expect so much backlash!   One advertiser pulled out from the Olympics so far.

In case anyone is interested, this briefly shows who created the blasphemy.

The Christian commentator gives a lot of other information.

P.S.  I always understood we can post a link to videos that are already approved.

HYPOCRISY ??

 

EXODUS 20:4  thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above or that is in the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth

 

ROMANS 15:4  for whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope 

 

LOVING  THE  LORD  JESUS  CHRIST

Whether summer or winter,  Olympics is a  contrivance  at best.  BUT let me know when we finally do get Rollerball, then I'm all in.

The powers of darkness behind the world will just keep at it, and they knew Christians will cause small set-backs in their agenda to corrupt mankind exceedingly and flaunt it all in the face of God.  I think it's a "boil the frog slowly" type of thing, hoping people will slowly tolerate it, then become part of it.  But the Spirit in us will never get used to this sort of thing at all, and recognizes it for what it really is. 

As @Marathoner points out, we just must remember that we do not fight against our fellow man, but against the spiritual rulers of wickedness.  We are Christ's boots on the ground, and God will crush Satan's head under our feet shortly!

I'm at one other site.   A lady there knows two teachers that had to quit their jobs because of what teachers are forced to do or teach that promotes the brainwashing of children to the transgender, gay agenda.

The above is why parents and even the rest of us need to speak up against this brainwashing.   Children's minds are being corrupted.
