Candace Cameron Bure Criticizes Olympics Ceremony

Candace Cameron Bure expressed her disapproval of the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, particularly criticizing a drag performance that she interpreted as mocking the Christian faith through a depiction of The Last Supper. In her Instagram video, Bure described the performance as 'disgusting' and stated that it made her 'sad for souls,' emphasizing her belief that many people have rejected the gospel of Jesus Christ. She reiterated her views despite others suggesting the performance celebrated the festival of Dionysus, arguing that it was inappropriate for children and not aligned with the spirit of the Olympics. Paris 2024 president Tony Estanguet defended the ceremony, stating that it was designed to provoke thought and reflect values. Bure's comments have sparked both support and criticism, with responses from various public figures highlighting the divisive nature of the event. In the wake of the backlash, Bure encouraged her followers to continue sharing the gospel and stay steadfast in their faith.
