I went to church yesterday in an 800 year old rural church in a fairly remote part of England - lovely old church, a congregation of twelve including the 91 year old organist, and tea and homemade fruitcake afterwards. The tiny congregation was generally older but there were some younger ones in their 40s and one of these women was in 3” heels - a bit of a surprise I was in very sturdy hiking boots. The challenge of walking two miles along the rough, stony towpath was enough in those!

I can understand the outrage. I’ve nothing against drag queens, or having a drag performance in the opening ceremony but doing the Last Supper as drag was deliberatively provocative, insulting and utterly gratuitous. Imagine if they had done the Hejira in drag! Christians are sick of this sort of thing and I don’t blame them. Utterly unnecessary. Again, nothing against drag but why deliberately insult someone’s faith?
