Looks like these Olympics are worth ignoring.

I look back on that opening ceremony from London, then watch that monstrosity in Paris, and ponder on what the hell is wrong with the French.

But the problem with the French is the issue with much of Western Civilization in general: a lust for evil and a hatred for truth.

---

I don't see how is the athletes fault that the French did a ridiculous opening ceremony. If you enjoy some of the sports, it shouldn't matter.

---

If they mocked Islam all the Islamic states would pull out and Paris would be burning. Christians are feckless and that's why this keeps progressing. At some point, Christians need to put their foot down.

Then it needs to be French Christians.

I hear what you're saying, I do, but the only power we as consumers have is to not buy the product. Watching the Olympics is buying the product.

---

Don't care. I love the Olympics and I'm not going to let some goofy French nonsense derail that.

---

I don't find it simply "goofy" the west keeps diving down deeper and deeper into depravity. This isn't just a problem in France. We're having drag queen story hour here at home in public schools.

For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written,

"I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart."

Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

I Corinthians 1:18-25

Don't be surprised when a world which has contempt for Christ demonstrates it for everyone on the public stage.

If anyone is curious....these are the four states with no residents on the 2024 Team USA Olympic team.

Arkansas
North Dakota
West Virginia
Wyoming

Texas' 38 athletes representing Team USA is more Olympians than countries such as Ethiopia (32), Venezuela (32), Indonesia (29) and Slovakia (28).

They put in a "pale horse" just in case you weren't sure that this was all intentional. Straight out of revelations. Wtf is happeningpic.twitter.com/jIcgI3gpCq

A golden calf and a pale horse along with a mockery of the last supper. Yeah real subtle messaging here.

---

I was told that the pale horse and rider are actually some spirit of the Seine River. Not Biblical.

This is what France wanted......attention. Everyone loves to talk about controversy.
I'll say this about the NBC broadcast from last night.....they did a great job of not showing the more controversial scenes from the runway show.

France is hosting the freaking Olympics. Can't get much more attention than that.

Viva Tejas!

Parts of Paris now without power and in blackout

You aren't weird for being disgusted by a grown dude hangin' brain next to a child on global television.

It's only taken a few decades to eradicate the natural disgust reflex in portions of the population.

Problem is that it matters to me.

I enjoy the Winter Olympics much more, with hockey, bobsledding, speed skating and even curling being much more to my liking.

But if the opening ceremonies take a considerable amount of time to mock my faith, then I will refuse watching those as well.

These games should always be used as a time to unite the world's population in support of peaceful competition.

Using them to target a segment of the population based upon outright bigotry and hostility doesn't fit in at all with the Olympic concept.

I wish our athletes the best. But I will not be watching.

definitely celebrate the USA men 4 X 100 3rd consecutive gold....

And don't celebrate Ledecky, a man competing against women and winning bronze in the 400 free.....complete joke and sucks for a woman who should have gotten a medal....

This. I bet at some future date, when this trans insanity is seen for what it is, that games that allowed bio males to compete against women will be thrown out of the record books. So easy to see this coming when sane people are again in charge.

Just turned on beach volleyball. Uniforms have changed. Now they wear yoga pants.

The Simpsons did a spoof on the Last Supper. Where was the outrage about that? There have been many other spoofs on it too. I guess it takes a drag queen to trigger some folks.

Celebrating godless degeneracy is not surprising from this poster.

Also, your side invented the term trigger. You should learn what it means.

Hopefully a meteor hit it.

Then it needs to be French Christians.

Isn't Christ's kingdom not of this world but in the hearts of men? So what does a Christian "putting his foot down" look like?

That was disappointing for sure...

But I saw someone mention it's more to do with the weather. It rained earlier today (evidence by the cycling events) and I don't think the high got out of the 70s.

ALSO... The hot air balloon cauldron were LEDs???

The Nutsack Olympics is a disaster. https://t.co/G1mKoPBdxy

Ledecky is not a man. Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

wow big mistake on my part...100% agree and very sorry for the confusion....I read that and immediately thought of Lia Thomas for some reason.....

I fall on my idiot sword in Seppeku and ask for a second to take my internet head......

Divers Sarah Bacon, formerly of the University of Minnesota, and Kassidy Cook have won the United States' first medal of the Paris Olympics.

Bacon and Cook took home the silver in the 3-meter synchronized springboard competition, held at the Aquatics Center in Saint-Denis, north of Paris. This is the first time the U.S. has medaled in the event since 2012

Texan Kassidy Cook from The Woodlands (Outside of Houston) brought home the Silver Medal in Synchronized Diving!

Christians are not "feckless."

And when it is all said and done?
