Family Guy is no stranger to bashing Christianity and Sunday night’s Christmas episode, “How the Griffin Stole Christmas,” was no exception, featuring Jesus not only mocked, but KICKED at the nativity.
While the Griffin family longs to go sledding, Lois tells them to get ready so they can attend church. Peter rudely objects, proclaiming Jesus himself loved sledding, calling it his “second passion” – obviously cheapening the Passion of Christ, the period of suffering Jesus underwent leading up to His death on the Cross for our sins.
Lois: All right. You guys ready for church? Peter: Church? What are you, an idiot? It's the first snow of the season. We're going sledding. Chris: Please, can we, Mom? Lois: Well, I mean, it's Sunday, and... Peter: Come on, Lois. After all, sledding was the second passion of the Christ. Jesus: Eat this, for this is my dust!
But it didn’t stop there. Stewie crashes a corporate Christmas party, giving management some new ideas for firing employees. Consumed with guilt, he claims he ruined Christmas like the little drummer boy – cueing a nativity seen that goes wild, ending with baby Jesus getting kicked over.
Stewie: Oh, God, I've ruined Christmas. Like the Little Drummer Boy when he got really into Neil Peart. (Drumming) Drummer Boy: Our finest gifts we bring Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum. Christmas is gonna be sick!
Truly disgusting, but certainly not surprising. Not really sure where the line is anymore when it comes to Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane. We can all agree at the very least he should get coal on Christmas for this disaster
Well, a Merry Christmas to them!
Expecting Family Guy to NOT be offensive is like asking liberals to be rational.
Kinda like 2000 years ago.
And there are still people who doubt Fox is in league with Podesta and the Satanists?
There get’s to be a point when someone stops being “edgy” and starts being an a-hole.
now do it with mohammed
The spirit of AntiChrist is strong with this one.
Agreed.
Fox has very little redeeming programming. Garbage tv.
Family Guy is garbage humor - meaning juvenile and not funny. Couldn’t care less how offensive they are because like the Simpsons, they usually frame it as the guy being offensive is the moron of the show (homer).

It’s disgusting.
Family Guy should have stayed cancelled.
“I’ve ruined Christmas. Like the Little Drummer Boy when he got really into Neil Peart.”
Ok, that one is funny.
I agree, I mean I watch South Park once in a while and it’s funny because they take on everything, including liberals. But this stupic Family Guy show just isn’t funny, to me at least.
Never watched that show, the trailers for it scream adolescent atheist humor.
Looking forward to when Seth meets Jesus...
He crossed that line so long ago that he can't even see it in the rear view mirror.
There has always been a very hateful, ugly sneer barely hidden behind Seth Macfarlane’s ‘smiles’. There is a place for most any type of humor, but this attitude is far more easy to accept and imitate than a respectful or loving attitude toward Christianity. In other words, the third generation unchurched teenager feels cool and greater peer acceptance by showing zero tolerance or use for most western religion. This is a harmful trend.
