The Olympics last supper parody was a sacrilege and mockery of the Catholic faith and I am grateful to the Catholic priests, Bishops and Cardinals who have responded to defend the Holy Eucharist.

The Paris Olympics opening ceremony took a controversial turn with a drag-inspired tableau, sparking an intense online debate. Was it a perversion of “The Last Supper” or a reference to “The Feast of Dionysus”? Regardless, it felt like a deliberate attempt to provoke—and then dismiss—Christians on the world stage.

As a Catholic, I believe this wasn't just an artistic choice; it was a blatant mockery of the Last Supper, the Eucharist, and the Catholic faith held by 1.4 billion people. This incident highlights a troubling cultural trend where "tolerance" often means disrespecting traditional values. However, in moments like these, it's vital that we defend our Catholic faith without succumbing to reactionary intolerance.

Holy See response to the olympics last supper
In a brief statement emailed to journalists in French, the Holy See said it “was saddened by certain scenes at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games and cannot but join the voices raised in recent days to deplore the offense done to many Christians and believers of other religions.”

Cardinal Burke’s response to the last supper being mocked at the opening ceremonies in Paris.
“It is difficult to imagine anything more debased and blasphemous. That such an act could take place shows us, in a most painful way, how what was once a Christian culture has become the theatre of Satan and those who cooperate with his thoroughly evil plans, the plans of ‘a murderer from the beginning’ who ‘has nothing to do with the truth’, the plans of ‘a liar and the father of lies’ (Jn 8, 44).
“Our disgust and anger about what happened at the Summer Olympics awakens anew our consciousness of so many other manifestations of the open rebellion against God and His plan for our salvation in the world in which we live: attacks on human life and its cradle in the family created by the marriage of a man and a woman, and attacks on religion itself and its free exercise.”

Open letter response (3 cardinals, 24 bishops):
“With shock the world watched as the summer Olympics in Paris opened with a grotesque and blasphemous depiction of the Last Supper. It is hard to understand how the faith of over 2 billion people can be so casually and intentionally blasphemed…… While it is hard to believe that such an intentionally hateful mockery of any other religion would be displayed on the world stage, this despicable action nonetheless threatens people of all faiths and of none, as it opens the door to those with power doing whatever they wish to people they do not like.”
