Fox Airs Show Blaspheming Christ

Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

The parent company of Fox News Channel and Fox Entertainment Group is coming under fire for airing a program on Fox Television Sunday night that blasphemed Christ.

The show “Family Guy” created an episode called “The 2,000 Year Old Virgin” in what the show was considering their “Christmas episode.”

The cartoon has Peter Griffin, the father of the show’s central family, finding out that Jesus is a virgin and then in a parody of the movie “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” seeks out to arrange for Jesus to lose his virginity.

“After running into Jesus at the Quahog Mall, Peter is stunned to discover that the Son of God is still a virgin,” a description of the episode outlines. “So, he enlists Quagmire and Cleveland to help him throw Jesus the best birthday ever by finding a way to help him become a man.”

The show then has the Jesus character admit he lies to men about being a virgin so he can sleep with their wives.  At the end of the show when Peter and Lois thank Jesus for teaching them a lesson about resisting temptation, Jesus says he’s fake.

“Who cares? I’m not even real. Merry Christmas,” he says.

The show’s creator, Seth McFarlane, has spoken before of his bigotry toward Christians.

“I consider myself a critical thinker, and it fascinates me that in the 21st century most people still believe in, as George Carlin puts it, ‘the invisible man living in the sky,” he said.

  1. Unfortunately they have been showing these “cartoons” that are outrageous and mean spirited, and ugly trash for years! I did not know it until we watched some, I was shocked. Avoid these and so many programs that are supposed to be “funny”! Keep wondering about the news too!

  2. It amazes me how people who really don’t have a clue@ Christianity seem to yap about it, like they think their ignorant ‘opinions’ somehow mean something. Seth clearly needs to engage in critical thinking, and stop saying he does, when he obviously does NOT.

  3. My brother briefly watched The Family Guy when it first came out several years ago, but stopped after another blasphemous show in which God the Father was seen in bed with a hooker!!! In short, blasphemy is not new territory for The Family Guy. With that in mind, I avoid Fox on Sunday night. In fact, if it isn’t airing a sporting event or American Idol, I avoid anything but Fox News. And sometimes I wonder about Fox News!!!
