Olympics 2024: Controversy Surrounds Opening Ceremony in Paris | Is Christianity Being Mocked?
The Paris Olympics opening ceremony has ignited global controversy with a provocative act featuring drag queens recreating Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper.

Critics argue that the scene mocks Christianity, while organizers claim it was intended to highlight the absurdity of violence.
Discover the details of this highly debated event and the reactions it has sparked around the world.

Between 2010 and 2020, the world’s population grew—and so did most major religious groups. Christianity remains the largest religion at 2.3 billion, but its global share fell to 28.8% as more people left the faith, especially in Western nations. Islam experienced the fastest growth, adding 347 million to reach 2 billion globally, fueled by high fertility rates and youthful populations. Meanwhile, the religiously unaffiliated rose to 24.2%, driven by secular trends in countries like China, the U.S., and Japan. Demographic shifts suggest Islam could match Christianity by mid-century.
