Speaking strictly for myself, the opening ceremony of the Olympics did not insult me.

Bingo! Also, they are OUTRAGED as Xtianity possibly being mocked, but they mock other religions with no guilty consciences.
I thought it had some wonderfully creative elements. Some not so much but, hey....they could never please everyone. (Marie Antoinette's head singing? LOVED IT.)

I didn't see the whole thing! I don't have a TV and looked at a YouTube clip.
@pamagain I ❤️❤️❤️ that part, one of my favorite metal bands Gojira!!!
I saw nothing offensive and believe it was a reference to Baccus, the Greek god of wine and debauchery /fertility. Davinci painting was not historically accurate, so even if it was satire, it deserved it.

One of FB friends also said that it wasn't a Xtian parody, but based on Greek myth.
@Gwen_Wanderer The Olympics are Greek, so that makes more sense than the Christian reference.
