Olympic Games opening ceremony accused of being Satanic ritual

It featured a headless woman singing from a window.

Unlike previous opening ceremonies, last night's show in Paris took place on the banks of the River Seine.

While most viewers were delighted by performances from pop icons Lady Gaga and Celine Dion, some were offended and disturbed by elements that have been deemed 'anti-Christian' and 'satanic'.

A US-based Catholic Bishop, who described himself as someone who "loves the Olympics", slammed the portrayal of The Last Supper during last night’s opening ceremony in Paris as a “gross mockery”.

The scene depicted a postmodern reenactment of the biblical event, using drag queens instead Jesus and his disciples.

Bishop Robert Barron, described the moment as a "gross, sort of flippant mockery," and added: "France, whose culture is grounded very much in Christianity, felt the right thing to do was to mock the Christian faith."

Others on social media took their criticisms one step further than the senior Christian minister, and labelled the performance as 'satanic'.

The comments were referencing the inclusion of heavy metal band Gojira to the bill, whose performance depicted a rather terrifying-looking lady in red who was holding her own head in her hands.

One X user wrote: "The opening ceremony of the Olympics is not even hiding the satanic rituals anymore.

"There is no longer anything hidden in plain sight. These are the demonic dark forces of Satan who want to eclipse the light."

Another wrote: "Dear Normies, You’re probably sat at home, watching the French Olympics thinking what the actual **** is this.

"Well it’s just another a conspiracy playing out in front of your very eyes."

They added: "The one where we tell you - the World is run by satanic globalists who control everything. These people do very strange sick things & openly worship Satan or a brand of.

"They love showing this fact off. Do you see it yet? They’re not even hiding it."

Even highly-controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate got in on the act.

Satanists control the west and they show you that they worship the devil.

It’s not a conspiracy theory.

They literally show you.

Are you blind?

He shared a clip of the performance, along with the caption: "Satanists control the west and they show you that they worship the devil.

"It’s not a conspiracy theory. They literally show you. Are you blind?"

Those who were more historically informed picked up the references to the French Revolution in the performance, and recognised the headless singing woman as being that oif Marie Antoinette - an Austrian princess and the wife of France's King Louis XVI.

Marie-Antoinette was guillotined in 1793 after the Revolutionary Tribunal found her guilty of crimes against the state.
