Christmastime each year means, among other things, lame,\u00a0predictable attacks\u00a0on Christianity from leftists who wouldn\u2019t dare make fun of Muslims or Jews.<\/span><\/p>\n

The latest salvo in the\u00a0never-ending\u00a0war on Christmas comes in the form of a profoundly offensive \u201cChristmas special\u201d about Jesus Christ.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe First Temptation of Christ\u201d is a 46-minute film depicting Our Lord and Savior as a homosexual involved in a same-sex relationship with a man named Orlando.<\/span><\/p>\n

It also portrays Mary, Jesus\u2019 mother, as a pot-smoking adulterer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Released Dec. 3 on Netflix, the disgraceful attempt at humor was produced by a five-person Brazilian \u201ccomedy\u201d troupe called Porta dos Fundos, which translates to \u201cBack Door.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe First Temptation of Christ\u201d isn\u2019t the first time the group, which has 16.2 million subscribers on\u00a0YouTube<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, has targeted Christianity.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2018, it released \u201cThe Last Hangover\u201d on Netflix.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn this biblical \u2018Hangover\u2019 spoof, the apostles awaken to find Jesus is missing and must piece together events of the previous night\u2019s wild Last Supper,\u201d the movie\u2019s blurb\u00a0reads<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The absurd, downright blasphemous premise of \u201cThe First Temptation of Christ\u201d has earned it the ire of millions of people from a variety of religious persuasions across the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

More than 1.7 million people added their names to a Change.org\u00a0petition<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0calling on Netflix to remove the movie from its catalog.<\/span><\/p>\n

The petition, written in Portuguese, also demands that the group apologize for having \u201cseriously offended Christians.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Brazilian Catholic Bishop Dom Henrique Soares da Costa has\u00a0rebuked<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0the film as well, calling it \u201cextremely disrespectful.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn the midst of preparing for the Lord\u2019s Nativity, Netflix has slapped the face of all Christians; spat in our faces, mocking our faith,\u201d he wrote, urging Christians to cancel their subscriptions.<\/span><\/p>\n

The movie surprisingly has caused many non-Christians to also speak out.<\/span><\/p>\n

Church Militant, a U.S.-based Catholic news website,\u00a0reported<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0that the National Association of Islamic Jurists announced its intention to sue Netflix and Porta dos Fundos,\u00a0expressing<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u201csolidarity with our Christian brothers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
