‘Full House’ Star Is Furious After The Olympics Opening Ceremony Mocked Her Faith

Many of us recognize Candace Cameron Bure from her part on the television show Full House. In more recent years, she continues to be in the public eye and recently, she had something to say.

Candace was upset about something that took place during the opening ceremony of the Olympics. On July 26, the show featured some drag performers setting at a long table.

After the event took place, many Christian groups were saying about how blasphemous this event was. They considered it to be a mockery of Christianity, saying that it was a depiction of the Last Supper painting by Leonardo da Vinci.

Criticism only continued after Phillippe Katerine appeared on the scene as the ancient Greek god of wine, Dionysus. It was a rather unusual part of the opening ceremony.

 

There have been many people in the public eye who have spoken out against the performance. This included Donald Trump, the former president of the United States.

He said: “I thought that the opening ceremony was a disgrace… I mean, they can do certain things. I thought it was terrible.”

He then went on to say that if he was president, they would not be portraying the Last Supper in this way at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.

Trump added: “I just think… Look, I’m for everybody. I’m very open-minded — you understand, you know me better than most people know me — but I thought what they did was a disgrace.”

Now the person who played DJ Tanner on Full House, Cameron Bure has spoken out against it as well. In a passionate Instagram post, the 48-year-old opened up and said: “It felt too important not to [speak up] and I love the Olympic Games, I love them. My husband [Val Bure] is a two-time Olympic medalist, so is my brother-in-law, and my father-in-law is a three-time Olympic medalist.”

“I have many friends that have competed in Games over the years and it’s something as a kid I have always loved… the Olympic Games have always brought me so much joy.”

 

She spoke about how the Olympics allows the best athletes in the world to compete and how amazing it is to watch two weeks’ worth of sporting events. She was disgusted when the opening ceremony blasphemed and mocked the Christian faith in her opinion.

“It made me so sad and someone said, ‘You shouldn’t be sad. You should be mad about it. I’m like, ‘Trust me, it makes me mad, but I’m more sad because I’m sad for souls.’

“I pray for my heart to break over what breaks God’s heart and I just think about all the people that have rejected the gospel of Jesus Christ or don’t know the gospel of Jesus Christ.

“In the Bible, in Galatians, it says, ‘God is not mocked for whatever a person sows he will also reap because the one who sows … will reap destruction from the flesh.”

She went on to explain: “There’s Christians out there that say, ‘Well I’m a Christian, it didn’t really bother me. Those people need to hear the gospel too. It’s the ones that are lukewarm about it that may think like, ‘Ah – I don’t want to ruffle any feathers.”

“Live and let live. Let people do what they want. I’m just gonna stay in my corner and be quiet about it.”

The director for the opening ceremony refuted the claims that it mocked the Last Supper. He said that the inspiration came from the Feast of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine.

“My wish isn’t to be subversive, nor to mock or to shock. Most of all, I wanted to send a message of love, a message of inclusion and not at all to divide.”

He finished with an apology, saying: “Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. If people have taken any offense, we are of course really, really sorry.”
