Jodie Sweetin Seemingly Responded To Candace Cameron Bure's Mistaken Rant About The Olympics Depicting The Last Supper

In case you missed it, the Olympics Opening Ceremony sparked widespread backlash from Christians and conservatives around the world.

A fashion show at the ceremony included a clip of drag queens and dancers that many Christians mistakenly assumed was a depiction of "The Last Supper." The famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci portrays Jesus Christ at his last meal with his apostles before his crucifixion.

Outrage flooded social media as Christians clutched their pearls and condemned the Olympics for — in their mind — mocking their religion.

Mind you, the official Olympics account tweeted that it was actually an interpretation of the Greek God, Dionysus. Olympics artistic director Thomas Jolly said the intention was "to have a grand pagan festival connected to the gods of Olympus." He continued, "It was pretty clear, [it was] Dionysus who arrives at the table. Why is he there? Because Dionysus is the Greek god of festivities and wine, and is the father of Sequana, the goddess of the Seine river."

But that didn't stop celebrities from joining in, with Candace Cameron Bure making a several-minute-long Instagram video. The Full House actor said that seeing "the opening ceremonies completely blaspheme and mock the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper was disgusting. It made me so sad."

In an Instagram story, Jodie shared a video making fun of people who misunderstood the ceremony and used it as an excuse to hate on drag queens. She wrote, "Tell me you don’t know about art or history without TELLING me you don’t know about art or history."

According to Entertainment Weekly, she shared a second post that detailed the history of the feast of Dionysus. "The drag queens of the Olympics were re-creating the feast of Dionysus, not the last supper," the post explained. "And even if you thought it was a Christian reference — what's the harm? Why is it a 'parody' and not a tribute? Can drag queens not be Christian too?"

Candace later edited the caption of her video. She wrote, "Since posting, many have tried to correct me saying it wasn’t about an interpretation of DaVinci’s The Last Supper, but a Greek god and the festival of Dionysus; who is a god of lust, insanity, religious ecstasy, ritual madnes etc. I still don’t see how that relates to unifying the world through competitive sports and acceptable for children to watch. In any case, I’m not buying it."

She concluded the caption by telling her followers to pray for the "Christian athletes" at the Olympics.
