Johnson decries Olympic opener for mocking christianity

[Hoosierhawkeye]

I didn't see the performance and was unaware of anything regarding it until reading it on here. I also felt no need to go through 5 pages of partisan bickering only to be reminded that the speaker of the House is a devout Christian Nationalist who will take every opportunity to whine about how oppressed and targeted Christians are in this world. It's embarrassing.

I don't think it was only Johnson who was upset. I think a lot of people were and Johnson just jumped on that train. The Catholic church who's HQ is in Rome also found it offensive.

Looking at the pictures initially it looked like a mocking of Da Vinchi's painting. Now after hearing their explanation I can take that at face value but I would also feel as though if they really had no intention of insulting anyone's religion as they claim they did why no one there had the foresight to think that this far less famous painting could easily be confused for The Last Supper. I mean if all the people on here were as well educated and knowledgeable about art history as they pretend to be they would know that The Last Supper inspired Le Festin des Dieux and the two have very clear similarities.

This really isn't a black and white thing IMO. I really reject the whole "they are out to get us" mantra that many Christians have taken on. And I can see were they were trying to re-create Le Festin des Dieux. I can also look at it and say that it takes a certain level of incompetence to not consider how it might be interpreted by others.

And Le Festin des Dieux is not a super famous painting. If it was it would be in the Louvre. I doubt many if any people on here were aware of it's existence until this happened but as soon as they read about it ran and started calling Christians uneducated for having the same ignorance of it.

Notice how con pissants such @RicoSuave102954 and @KFsdisciple turn to personal bullying because their arguments don’t hold water. What they don’t understand is that they are in the minority and we are ready to let them know who has the real power.

If you think you have any real power. I would like to see you try and take my land, money and other assets. Just try it and see what happens to you and your Marxist buddies.

Karma is not going to be kind to the snowflakes who felt it was fine to have a bunch of fags reenact the last supper.

What does it actually take to get banned on this f***ing board? Go play in traffic, asshole.

Why would what he said be a reason to ban someone? He didn't call anyone on here that, unless we have a HBOTer in the ceremony we/he didn't know about.

[HawkNester]

I didn't start out that way. I've just reciprocated the treatment I've received. Golden rule... I'm no victim. Even in this thread the worst thing I said was Torbee was being a snotty elitist and pointed out this his profession has a low approval rating (factual) Trust in the media is currently quite low in the United States. According to a recent Gallup poll, only 7% of Americans have “a great deal” of trust in the media.

He responded with GFY and glue eating. I don't see you calling him out though. Hypocrite birds of a feather and all.

I could explain the difference. Hopefully you and others with similar mindsets come to realize that.

This coming from a guy who has never spent anytime in the real world. Your self-esteem is low because you can’t prove for yourself. You’re a useless shut in who spends all day on the internet beating off to Aaron Rupar articles. You always think you’re the smartest person in the room when in reality you’re just an insufferable dipshit.

I'll let you in on a little secret, words only have the power you give them. Perhaps you could provide the rest of us the words we can't say on HBOT so others can feel safe and unoffended.

So if you had a child come home and they had been called any number of slurs or other awful things, your answer would be "STFU, they're just words." And if your children started using those words, because you clearly are cool with that from what I can tell by your defense, and someone questioned it, your answer would be "STFU, they're just words."

Maybe I'm just a radical Marxist, but I expect more from people than to defend that kind of language being tossed around.

No, my answer wouldn't be STFU... my response would be, why does it bother you? If someone called one of my daughters friends a redskin...and that somehow upset them, first I'd ask what do you know about the history of the use of the word? Was your friend upset? If yes, I hope you asked them why, and learned why that was upsetting to them, if they weren't upset then you don't need to be either, just be smart enough not say it either.

So my question is, who in the display do you know was upset that a guy on a message board called them that? If you assume they all would be upset by it, then my question would be why does it bother you, the phrase wasn't directed toward you. Do you listen to rap music are you offended by bitches, hoes, and n*99@s in song?

Maybe in the US but this has caused controversy outside of the US.

If we take it at face value it was a major blunder to not recognize how a painting inspired by The Last Supper could be confused for it given that The Last Supper is far more famous.

If one is more cynical than you might think that this less famous painting was used as cover to purposefully create the controversy and to try to then imply people are stupid for not being aware of this random painting that is stuck in a relatively unknown art museum in Dijon.

When I first learned of the painting I really thought maybe I really was just ignorant of this paintings place in art history. But I read the very short Wikipedia article on it and how it was not in Paris in the largest most famous art museum in the world but instead in Dijon it kind of pissed me off how many people rushed to call anyone who was offended ignorant as though they totally know about this painting til it was cited by the media.

That quite frankly is more insulting than the controversy.

They don't have the guts to, just ask the German Army

To be fair Charlie Hebdo insulted Islam and was violently attacked.

I have come to believe that respecting other people's religious beliefs is not considered a value in France. Because I thought the insults Charlie Hebdo did against Muslims was pretty douchey. They certainly didn't deserve violence for it but still.

For sure some of the Islamic world reacts much too strongly over portrayals of Mohammed. Do you think the Christian community should adopt a similar approach?

Artists and others have been tweaking organized religion for centuries.

I also think it's a douche move to needlessly insult someone's faith.

Sorry if this derails the conversation, but I'm honestly curious and understand you might not want to get further into this. Do you find Monty Python's religion themed skits and films to be offensive?
