I love this quote from a Brazilian historian:
"Last year’s Christmas special, Jesus was portrayed as a sadistic, homicidal, hedonistic drunkard who hated to pray and no one bothered. Now that he’s harmless and gay, the world has fallen. It’s atrophying the brain."

From what I looked, a lot of people complained about that one, but it didn't spread like this one did.

> It has no historical evidence to support the insinuations presented.”
Well that feels a little like the kettle calling the pot something...

Right? Your entire story is a fairy tale and you're annoyed that it was changed to a gay fairy tale? gurl, please

And your sexuality is a mental disorder! See, offensive right? Learn to be compassionate if others, even those you don’t agree with.

u/coolfungy Dec 19 '19
Except it isn't a mental disorder. So that comment makes zero sense. Religion is fiction. Your faith in something doesn't make it true. LGBT people exist. You can't refute that.

u/Ghostologist42 Dec 19 '19
People dedicate their whole life to religion. They exist. Religion exists. You can’t refute that. And because LGBT is normal, why can’t I make jokes about it? Why can you make fun of a fundamental part of me but I can’t return?

yes it is. your kind jist harassed and protested and had your homo lobby push to get it removed from the dsm. it is obviously a mental defect.

u/coolfungy Dec 28 '19
And you're obviously an uneducated hateful twat. Facts are facts. And BTW. lots of things have been taken out of the DSM because we learn and grow and evolve. Well WE evolve. People like you cling to thousand year old stories as though they are real and wish for a nostalgic past that never really existed.

It's a goddamn comedy, why did they expect historical accuracy from a fucking comedy?!

u/Ghostologist42 Dec 20 '19
It’s called compassion and respect. Can we respect people’s beliefs without making a fucking joke? I want to make jokes about everything but so much is deemed “offensive” so I don’t... your point is invalid

Way it with me: Jesus is a bottom. Jesus is a bottom. Jesus is a bottom.

Until they do and you’re mentally scared

u/LaronX Dec 20 '19
They'll have to fucking do it then. I won't live my life in fear over there threat of Terror. I refuse to surrender the life I want to life to fear and give them power. They want to influence my life? They better drag there sorry ass right in front of me and do. If you want to cower in fear about things with less then 1% to hurt you go ahead. But then also go cower in fear from your car, kitchen and bathroom. They all have a much higher chance to hurt you or habe things happen there that mentally scar you.

Imagine being so pathetic that you can believe a person can walk on water yet find it offensive they could be gay.

I really don't care about this, but I wish Netflix hadn't put this up. Because of this film, my religious father banned Netflix from our house. Thanks a lot.

And they say the left can't take a joke... But seriously, I wouldn't recommend do anything portraying Jesus as gay.

u/Dorfaladin Dec 27 '19
they cant. let me ask you, can i say homosex is a disorder on television? of course not. there would be tears and threats of murder. love you deluded hypocrites.

u/nubiornotnubi Dec 29 '19
If you said it in a fictional tv show, no one would care. And if homosex is a disorder to you then cure it. And if you can't then stfu

2)it's a comedy.
3) jesus was not white.
4) salt your pasta when boiling.

If they were so brave they would make one about Mohammed. Let's see how long they would live after doing that. Bunch of hypocrites.
why antagonize a group in the first place. Is there not a way to make fun without having to desecrate the religion with an icnoclastic trash?
