snoop1130 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Pixar's Onward 'banned by four Middle East countries' over gay reference Pixar / Google Pixar's latest animation Onward has been banned by several Middle Eastern countries because of a reference to lesbian parents, according to reports. The family film will not be shown in Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Hollywood media have reported. Police officer Specter, voiced by Lena Waithe, has been heralded as Disney-Pixar's first openly gay character. Her lines include: "It's not easy being a parent... my girlfriend's daughter got me pulling my hair out, OK?"

I've been watching "Supergirl" on Netflix for a couple of years now. I don't find her sister's love affair helps the story-line at all, but we must put up with the diversity. (though you won't find me watching it if a couple of guys start snooking it, swallowing each other's tongue). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some, I don't remember ever reading, but the key is the New Testament, which says, "for all have sinned". The real important part is the forgiveness part.

Do those christians have a rule now that they don't accept part of that book but another part they do accept? And if it's acceptable to support one part but not the other should muslims not be able to do the same? It seems there is a lot of violence in the bible and the koran. And it's almost funny that some people only look at the parts which they like and ignore the rest. Scrap religion and the problem is solved. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Krataiboy Posted March 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) What is really telling about this clip is the fact that nobody recognised the passages quoted as coming from the Bible. This says something about the educational system in a country where most people are supposedly Christian! The passages quoted were, of course, all taken from the Old Testament, a fanciful and ocasionally fantastical record of "historical" events leading up to the birth of Jesus Christ. It is His teachings (embodied in the New Testament), and not those of the Old Testament prophets, which form the core belief system of the world's most popular religion. Christianity has evolved and adapted over the centuries to accommodate changes in society. Islam, on the other hand, remains stubbornly rooted in the past, with the Koran regarded as the immutable and unalterable "final word" of God or Allah faithfully recorded by the prophet Muhammed. This unshakable conviction explains why Muslims, including the millions who have opted to resettle in the developed West, are unable - even if it is their secret wish - to foreswear outdated medieval attitudes (misogyny, homophobia, etc, and barbaric practices (FMG, child marrige) which stand between them and the mutally desirable objective of true integration. Sad for us all. Edited March 11, 2020 by Krataiboy 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 That'll serve Pixar for introducing characters irrelevant to the movie for entirely, IMO, purely social engineering reasons. Personally I don't care about the homosexual angle, but I'm avoiding movies with PC social engineering as they are inevitably <deleted> movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise they would love to copy those Muslims. Christians are just a lil bit worse because they don't make a majority. LIfe would be much better without religion that includes Christians.

The difference between christianity and islam is that our ancestors managed to pull the teeth out of the christian fanatics while islam is still stuck in the middle ages.
