Does anyone remember the opening ceremony for the 2012 Olympics in London, that predicted covid 19 ?

View attachment 352376

We have to look at these opening ceremony's as predictions that these Satanic cults have planned for humanity in the future.

Join the dots, and you will be forewarned which is to be forearmed.

Blessings :praying:
Because there’s no such things as coincidences?
Riiiight.

Yeah. I am young. Will be 25 in the fall of this year. I had flat screen TV, bro, and a CRT TV in the spare room at my old house (well, my parents own them, and got rid of the CRT TV in 2016 or so when we moved to Wisconsin). In December 2022, I bought my own TV for the first time, an LG 43UN700T-B model. It is technically a 43 inch monitor, cos monitors have better colors compared to TVs, but is hooked up to a Roku streaming stick and a DVD player on my TV stand. :) I can watch classic DVDs on it.

You have DVDs still? How primitive ^_^

Many people may be unaware that the general format of the Last Supper pre-existed before Christianity. The idea of having ritual meals was present all over the Mediterranean. The Greeks called it the Sumposion, where we get the term symposium, and it was present in many mystery religions as a central rite.
I already know all of that. I've studied the Mystery Religions.
So Jesus didn't invent anything new in sitting down at a common table, taking bread and wine and sharing them with his disciples. What he did that was unique was the significance he assigned to them.

I know that too. But regardless, what was presented in the Olympic opening ceremony seemed out of place to me, even if it wasn't depicting the DaVinci Last Supper. And I'll say this even though I know that the idea of the Olympiad originated as a piece of ancient Greek culture.


... the thing is, while I'm not particularly fond of the idea of Fundamentalist Christians politically taking over anywhere at anytime, neither am I fond of the idea of bringing back the old Grecian, Paganized outlook on life either, Dionysian in nature or otherwise ... ... and I'm not just saying this as if I've written sex off as a load of sour grapes. I haven't.

Christians want Jesus respected.
OK, then respect him as believers.

French society is not especially religious or even Christian so why not have some respect for the French as well?
Apparently there were other dark symbolisms as well.
Oooh!

Again, it is France - Paris actually. Parisians have a perfect right to do what they want in their own city. The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games has for many years offered an opportunity to showcase what the host city regards as the best of themselves. If people are put off the remedy is simple and cheap.

Don't go there.

He revealed that to mankind thousands of years ago. Also, it was revealed that in the end times the world would again sink into darkness even deeper than ever before.
True, these prophecies might unfold pretty soon.

Wow, you really cannot imagine that any of that never existed for us, back then, can you? (Not that’s that’s a “fault”, but all we had was rumor and “some kid in Florida…”. Invention and innovation are always all around us, but back then it might take a week to a year for a “trend” to develop.

I, myself, awaken nearly everyday before 6AM HST*, here in the Steel City, and take great pride that I still have the discipline necessary to accomplish this.

*Honolulu Standard Time
Honolulu is 4650 miles (7490 km) from Pittsburgh (Steel City), so one might want to wake up to the Eastern Time zone. :)

And yes, innovation has a curve. YouTube was introduced in 2005, but did not take off until a few years later. Nowadays, it seems when a platform is introduced, people jump on to it.

Not to get off topic. But the best performance I've seen so far is Celine Dion singing Hymne a' l'amour (Hymn to Love) in the opening ceremony. It was originally done by the legendary Edith Piaf, and it's her signature song. Edith had a hard life, and died in 1963 at age 47. Here's a video of her rendition:


Celine has also had difficulties. She has Stiff Person Syndrome. It's a neurological disorder--more common in women--causing intense muscle spasms in the arms and legs. It's thought to be an autoimmune problem, and can be triggered by stress. More info in the link. And check out the videos of her Olympics performance on YouTube. Celine has a top-notch voice, and it was great to hear her singing. She deserves a gold medal.

Not sure why you seem to be trying to justify public open blasphemy? That has nothing to do with believers themselves respecting God. (except that we are to hate evil and confess Him before men etc)
French society is not especially religious or even Christian so why not have some respect for the French as well?
Not if you claim 'the french' are filthy blasphemers. I disagree.
Oooh!

Again, it is France - Paris actually. Parisians have a perfect right to do what they want in their own city.
No one has a right to blaspheme God and disrespect a selected minority. They (and you may think they do) Y'all will find out soon what is really going on though
The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games has for many years offered an opportunity to showcase what the host city regards as the best of themselves. If people are put off the remedy is simple and cheap.
If Satanic blasphemy and evil perversion and dark ritualistic symbolism is 'the best of themselves' then they of course can go to hell.

I thought she was good also, I love that song.

Both Lady Ga Ga & Celine Dion are ardent supporters of LGBT, no wonder they were chosen to perform.

Most internationally popular artists and performers in North America and Europe are "supporters" of LGBT, so I don't see how that's particularly relevant.

God is a supporter of male and female creation. If a worldly singer warms up an audience to Satanic messages and a manifested show of blasphemy against God, that is relevant. If the 'love' they sing about is actually depravity and evil or is applied to it as in this case, then they are partners in crime

When you take it as far as a Celine Dion does, it's relevant enough.

You know that many of us do not share this view of the world.

Blasphemy was a crime when the clerics were in charge. In France as in much of the developed world their grip on society has been loosened. The clerics are irrelevant to the law. Blasphemy is no longer punishable in law.

I understand that you must avoid blasphemy but you cannot impose your religious customs on others. I did not much enjoy the evening but the Parisian authorities can organise it as they like.

Of course and visa verso. Never the twain shall meet.
Blasphemy was a crime when the clerics were in charge.
No. Maybe some 'clerics' realized it was evil. The crime part comes because God says so
In France as in much of the developed world their grip on society has been loosened.
In other words most rejected the truth. No news there.
The clerics are irrelevant to the law. Blasphemy is no longer punishable in law.
They always were. As for the laws of Sodom and Gomorrah, who cares??
I understand that you must avoid blasphemy but you cannot impose your religious customs on others.
Nor they their vile Satanic preferences on us.
I did not much enjoy the evening but the Parisian authorities can organise it as they like.
As they did. Commenting on how they raised hell is fair game.

What's a headless Marie Antoinette got to with anything ? Could it be related to this passage in the Bible;

King James Bible
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus,
