The left-wing apologists have come out of the woodwork to excuse away the hyper-sexualized woke trans Paris Olympics opening ceremony by claiming to rely on historical analysis to explain the debacle. Still, they are often garbling and mixing up history in the process.“The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics sparked outrage for the so-called blasphemous depiction of the Last Supper, but a new theory has emerged about what the bizarre performance was really about.
The webpage explaining the Greek traditions of the Olympic Games properly mentions Zeus, Hera, Athena, and Apollo. However, Dionysus is not mentioned because that particular God was not part of the group of Gods that the Games were originally created to honor.that the opening ceremony is not an attack on Christianity because it is a depiction of the “ancient Greek Bacchanalia festivals.”
Bacchus was the Roman god of agriculture, wine, and fertility. He was the “equivalent” to Dionysus, but not the same as Dionysus.cult was influenced by the Greeks and their God, Dionysus, it mainly was a Roman tradition, not a Greek one. Bacchus was undoubtedly influenced by the Greek’s Dionysus, but the festivals the Greeks had differed from that the Romans later created
Not only is Bacchanal a Roman term, but historians think that the original Bacchanalia ceremonies were only open to female participants. It was also not associated initially with sexual indulgence but was a celebration of music, wine, and drunkenness. It is not exactly clear if sexual orgies were ever a part of the Bacchanal rites in Rome. Still, Roman critics of the cult’s activities portrayed them as libidinous, and later eras of history often depicted them in such a manner.
