The 2024 Paris Olympics kicked off Friday with the opening ceremony taking place in Paris, France. During part of the ceremony, it appears performers attempted to reenact Leonardo DaVinci’s Last Supper, which for Christians, represents Jesus’ last meal with his twelve apostles. The scene that played out during that ceremony sparked widespread criticism from Christians and Conservatives alike.
