Telecommunications company C Spire, the 6th largest telecommunications company in the United States, announced that they will be pulling all ads from NBC’s Paris Olympics coverage after the opening ceremony trashed Christianity with a drag-themed mockery of the Last Supper.

In a mockery of the last supper — when Jesus broke bread with his disciples for the final time just days before he was crucified — the opening ceremony featured a number of drag queens and transgender individuals in a reenactment of one of the most sacred symbols of Christianity. A number of children were also sprinkled in amongst the anti-Christian display.

The opening ceremony also featured a naked man painted in blue and a “woman” with a beard, in addition to another biblical mockery. A pyrotechnics display featured a rider on a white horse in a depiction of the fourth horseman of the apocalypse, with the rider signifying death.

Less than 24 hours after the ceremony generated worldwide outrage, C Spire issued a statement through an X post.

“We were shocked by the mockery of the Last Supper during the opening ceremonies of the Paris Olympics. C Spire will be pulling our advertising from the Olympics,” the company wrote.

C Spire — a telecommunications company and internet service provider that primarily serves customers in the American south — joined faith leaders from around the world in condemning the anti-Christian display.

“I think, folks, what’s interesting here is this deeply secularist, post-modern society knows who its enemy is. They’re naming it. And we should believe them. They’re telling us who they are. We should believe them. But furthermore, we Christians, we Catholics, should not be sheepish. We should resist, we should make our voices heard,” said Bishop Robert Barron of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester.

Barron noted that France has long been a center of Christianity and is home to more than 40 million Christians.

A group of French Bishops echoed Barron’s statement in a press release of their own. The statement expressed outrage over “scenes of derision and mockery of Christianity, which we deeply deplore.”

“We thank the members of other religious denominations who have expressed their solidarity,” the statement continued. “This morning, we think of all Christians on all continents who have been hurt by the outrage and provocation of certain scenes.”

A number of prominent athletes have condemned the display as well. Boxing superstar Ryan Garcia called for a boycott of the Olympics, while Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker quoted Galatians 6:7-8 in an X post.

“Be not deceived, God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. For he that soweth in his flesh, of the flesh also shall reap corruption. But he that soweth in the spirit, of the spirit shall reap life everlasting,” reads the verse.

UFC pound-for-pound king Islam Makhachev — a devout Muslim — condemned the opening ceremony as a “shame and dark stain” on the storied games.
