I am a Jew, certainly a Christian. The Final Supper, one of the most holy images in the New Testament, was mocked during the 2024 Olympics in Paris, but I found it repulsive.

In reality, it is actually troubling to frequently read the words,” Many Christians are offended”– as if only Christians are offended by France’s and the International Olympic Committee’s ridicule of Jesus ‘ Last Supper field.
However, if only Christians were offended, there is little promise for society.
But we live in the age of stereotyping, in which only people of qualified parties are expected to become offended. To write that Christians were offended by what really transpired in Paris would be as if one were to write, “blacks were offended” by servitude, or” Jews are offended” by Islamic tries to destroy Israel, or “women are offended” by the murder of people.
On the biggest step in the world, Leonardo da Vinci’s decoration of the Last Supper would be unpleasant to moral people of all stripes.
In truth, “offensive” does n’t do justice to how we all should see what the French and the Olympics did.
What was done prior to the Paris 2024 Games was much more severe than “offensive.” In fact, the Left was the greatest threat to Western culture in the history of the West.
You do n’t have to be a Christian to understand that Christianity– more specifically, Judeo-Christian values and the Bible– made Western civilization. Without Christianity and the Bible, there would be no West. Because of this, the West associates disdain for Christianity and the Bible with ridicule. The Left and the Bible are at odds with one another in the recent civil war in Western culture.

The Los Angeles Dodgers never only permitted a party called” Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence,” a self-described “order of gay and transgender nuns” that imitates and mocks Catholic sisters, to do prior to a Dodgers activity, but also for that purpose. They were honored by the Dodgers.
It is the cause an “artwork” titled” Piss Christ”– a cross submerged in a jar of blood– visited museums throughout America.
Why is Christianity never even mentioned in the European Union Charter?  ,
Every left-wing organization in America is angry about Oklahoma’s decision to make Bible training required in public schools, as well as Louisiana’s recent determination to demand that the Ten Commandments remain posted in Louisiana rooms.
And why the president of France, Emmanuel Macron, praised his government’s opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, posting on X:
” Thanks to Thomas Jolly ( the artistic director ) and his creative genius for this grandiose ceremony. For this special and wonderful time, we thank the performers. Bless you to everyone who backed it. We’ll discuss about it again in 100 times! WE DID IT”!
And there’s more terrible news: As of this writing, the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, has said nothing about the Olympics ‘ degeneration of the Last Supper. He might have been putting together another encyclical on climate change very soon.
It is crucial to notice that the Left, whether in America or Europe, not mocks Islam. The Left might concentrate its antireligious flames on Islam, or at least conservative Islam, given that almost all religious violence in the world comes from that faith.  ,

Why does n’t it?
One explanation is that liberals fear Muslims. You will have to spend your life in secrecy if you make fun of Islam, or you could face beheaded. On the other hand, the Left has no concern of Christians. The Left assumes that not one of the two and a half billion Catholics in the world may cause harm to them, regardless of how mocked and detested Christianity is. The Catholic pope wo n’t even speak out against you, not to mention not to not throw a fatwa at you. Because he, too, is a person of the Left.
The Left’s allies in an effort to annihilate the West are a second explanation for this. The Left is associated with Islamic conservatives, who want to eject all of Israel’s Jews. In the middle of the Muslim world, Israel is perceived ( correctly ) as a remnant of Western civilization.
The Left does not love faith. It hates Christianity, Judeo-Christian beliefs and the Bible. All you need to know about the 2024 Paris Olympics ‘ entry is that.
