Brazilian Netflix film The First Temptation of Christ has took the attention of actress Ai-Ai delas Alas as the movie was unpleasantly surprised her after depicting Jesus Christ as a gay man.
The movie features some very non-traditional scenes that you'll never see it in the bible, including a smoking Mary and what seems to be a gay Jesus. Out of her disappointment to the movie, the actress took on her social media account and call on for offended Christian viewers to sign in a petition to remove the movie on Netflix.
“Patawarin mo po sila LORD [clasp hands emoji].. sign the petition to stop showing this sa NETFLIX ---[frowning emoticons] sino man ang gumawa nito masusunog kayo sa impyerno.. #sacrilege #blasphemy,” Ai-Ai said.

According to the film's synopsis, the story follows Jesus as he turns 30 and brings a surprise guest to meet the family, the person seemingly to be his boyfriend Orlando.
"A Christmas 'special' portraying Jesus as secretly gay and in love with a guy friend is being streamed on Netflix. The title is "The First Temptation of Christ". This is outrightly an attack not just on our faith but blasphemy against our Lord. This is being done to us because we've been silent and everyone who does this thinks we won't push back. We, Christians, cannot be silent. It's time to raise our voices by signing this petition," the petition said.
The petition now has garnered more than 148K signatures and counting.
