Judge orders Netflix to remove Gay Jesus Film
Netflix has been ordered by a Brazilian judge to stop displaying a film showing Jesus as a gay man.
The ruling by Rio de Janeiro judge, Benedicto Abicair, on Wednesday responded to a petition by a Brazilian Catholic organization that argued the honor of millions of Catholics was hurt by the film which prompted a gasoline bomb attack on the satirists behind the film.
The special was produced by Rio-based film company, Porta dos Fundos, whose headquarters was targeted in the Christmas Eve attack.
Judge Abicair said the program’s withdrawal is beneficial not only to the Christian community but to Brazilian society which is mostly Christian.
