    Harrison Butker Warns 'God Is Not Mocked' Over Drag Queens At Olympic Ceremony

    Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker may have just begun training camp , but he’s already in peak form as a far-right critic.

    Butker took issue with a segment of the Paris Olympics ’ opening ceremony Friday that appeared to feature drag queens and others supposedly reenacting “The Last Supper” ― Leonardo da Vinci’s imagining of Jesus Christ’s final meal with his apostles before being crucified.

    “Be not deceived, God is not mocked,” Butker wrote on social media, quoting a Bible verse. He also shared a video clip of the act, one of many that pushed boundaries in the ceremony along the Seine River. Another interlude artistically depicted a ménage à trois .

    “For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap,” Butker continued in his quote. “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.”

    Butker commented on the segment in his Instagram stories as well, writing, “ This is crazy .”

    Tesla CEO Elon Musk was among other prominent right-wingers to voice their objections.

    Butker’s reaction probably shouldn’t surprise anyone familiar with his speech at the Benedictine College commencement in May. He ripped abortion rights , the LGBTQ+ community and diversity initiatives while also suggesting that female graduates should be far more eager to become homemakers than to pursue success in the workplace.

    At that moment, Butker became a household name for Americans on the right and left who were unaware of his exploits for his Super Bowl-winning football team.
