Gateway Jesus
Ground crew has too much time on their hands.

AMC's show Preacher has set a new record for irreverence, making Jesus Christ out to be an adulterer and mentally handicapped. Yet on Sunday, the show managed to become even more offensive. In one episode, the character portraying Jesus smokes a joint and imagines himself robbing a bank. Next episode, he will negotiate with Adolf Hitler regarding the apocalypse.
Early in the episode, Tyson Ritter — whose character is listed as "Humperdoo, Jesus Christ, Jesus" on IMDB — smokes a joint with Ruth Negga, playing Tulip O'Hare. He reminisces about having sex with a married woman in the Garden of Gethsemane on the night before his crucifixion — originally shown in an episode in 2017, as Newsbusters reported. In that original episode, Jesus was introduced as "Humperdoo" and portrayed as an inbred simpleton.
Yet later in his conversation with O'Hare, Jesus imagines himself robbing a bank, and the scene concludes with him shooting an innocent man. Here's the video, courtesy of NewsBusters:
In the teaser for the next episode, Jesus negotiates with Hitler. The Nazi leader disagrees with the Christian notion of salvation being open to all believers, saying, "So, by your logic, one could start a World War, try to exterminate an entire people, level Danzig, and still go to heaven if they repent at the last second."
"If they repent, yes," Jesus replies.
"Well, that is going to change," Hitler counters.
"No, it isn't."
"Yes, it is, or I am taking back the homosexuals," the Nazi dictator says.

Jesus?
Must be some Mexican guy.
Previews of coming attractions from the ever-increasing spirit of antichrist in popular culture.
I hope nobody goes to see it.
That is the only thing they understand.
The show sounds like a complete POS.
Do the same using a Mohammed Character and see what happens.
I watched a few episodes from the 1st season and quickly saw the darkness.
Not surprisingly, Seth Rogan producing this satanic piece if trash.
Lessay you emigrated, went to Israel, then dominated their airwaves with crap like this about Moses:
What would they DO to you..?
Find it hard to believe that 3 good Irish Catholic boys like Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Sam Catlin would make such a blasphemous tv show.
Gateway Jesus
Ground crew has too much time on their hands.
Just one of many nauseating series on TV these days leading society to moral decay.
I LIKED him so much before he started showing his hatred for America and his Hatred for Christianity.
Now he’s just another POS leftist
From wikipedia..
... He has described his parents, who met on kibbutz Beit Alfa in Israel, as “radical Jewish socialists.”...
There’s a shock. /s
WHY come to AMERICA if you’re a radical socialist??
Again. To take power and make everyone live like you don’t want to.
Vying for hottest spot in the lake of fire
As predicted by Jesus himself. The hatred of the world should not surprise us. Still the audacity is amazing.
Any network production dealing with Christianity is a must-miss for me. HBO now has one about a family of evangelists. I am skipping it.
I thought Rogen was Canadian by birth but came to the US for work. Have never been able to abide him, a fat little pr*ck who swallows his words.
He is.
But parents have quite an effect on what a kid turns out to be.
His parents are radical socialists.
What was he gonna be?
Garbage
FWIW; that scene with Jesus robbing the bank was a what-if daydream Jesus had. It didn’t really happen in the show. Still isn’t right but there is a difference.
The Hitler character is being used by God’s second in command; another unsavory character.
Yes; this show is clearly anti-Christian but it isn’t anti-God per se. It even has the main character (the Preacher) with a God-like power to take away free will by simply using a different voice. Free will is what defines us as living sentient beings. This is a very dangerous superpower.
Preacher is an out of the box strange/weird/different story line. I wouldn’t think of it as anything more than off the wall entertainment with no foundation in reality.
