The opening ceremonies in Paris brought with them an uproar. Some Christians were beyond upset over an artistic rendition on a foot bridge over the Seine that they thought was the Last Supper. They thought France was mocking God. Well, it wasn't the Last Supper but a depiction of Dionysus, the Greek God of wine. It was a party scene and many American Christians were offended.
They called for people to boycot the Olympics and when the power went out they commented that God would not be mocked. I don't think God was mocked and I think we need to think about the lens through which we view the world. Many hold a puritanical belief in America and the French do not.
I wonder if we can let art be art and understand that we all like different types of art and that is okay. So go enjoy the rest of the Olympics and watch athletes compete in the sports they love and celebrate the things that are right and good as nations come together to compete.
