Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker has spoken out about what he deemed an offensive part of the Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony. Butker is referring to the segment where drag queens appear to simulate Leonardo da Vinci's painting of Jesus's Last Supper.
On his Instagram story, he posted a screenshot of the controversial scene and wrote: "This is crazy." Butker went on to insert a Biblical quote from Galatians 6:7: "Be not deceived, God is not mocked."
The Paris Olympics are under fire for their blasphemous rendition of The Last Supper. A child could be seen joining the drag queens during the performance. Outrageous and disrespectful doesn’t begin to cover it. pic.twitter.com/uEzJB0uIKE
