Sexual and gender diversity have taken on great relevance around the world, however, not everyone agrees with this.
The position of many is determined by the religion they practice and they do not accept that a man or woman have a romantic and/or sexual relationship with another person of the same gender.
This situation has generated global controversy and reverberated in different industries, one of them is film.
Netflix premieres controversial production
Recently Netflix released a production Chile Mobile Number List showing Jesus Christ as a homosexual man. The film has generated great controversy on the part of various religious groups, who have already expressed their opinion about it.
The first temptation of Christ , a comedy film directed by Martin Scorsese, mocks the original production in which the religious character is discussed.
The film has caused such controversy that religious conservatives have launched a petition through the Change.org site for Netflix to remove it. So far the request exceeds 2 million signatures.
Following the religious group's request, Judge Benedicto Abicair also asked that content that shows Jesus as homosexual be removed.
Netflix ordered to remove film that portrays Jesus as gay
According to information from The Washington Post , Judge Benedicto Abicair filed a legal complaint. So far it is stated that the ruling is temporary until a higher court issues a final ruling.
The consequences of the dissemination and exhibition of 'artistic production'... are more likely to cause more serious and irreparable damage than its suspension.
Judge Benedicto Abicair
"It seems to me more appropriate and beneficial, not only for the Christian community, but for Brazilian society, mostly Christian, until the merit of the appeal is judged, to resort to caution to calm things down."
The judicial measure, according to a statement from the Court, was granted at the request of the Don Bosco Center for Faith and Culture Association.
However, it is not specified if this can be appealed and if it would only affect Netflix users in Brazil. For its part, the digital platform said in a statement:
We strongly support artistic expression and will fight to defend this important principle that gets to the heart of great storytelling.
According to the international media, the company did not receive official notification of the order, but filed a complaint with the Supreme Court of Brazil based on the right to freedom of expression.

In the satire, upon his return from the desert, the messiah arrives home with a special friend with whom he shares a season in the desert.
Reactions
One day before Christmas, the Rio de Janeiro Police reported an attack against the headquarters of the production company that had released the film: Porta dos Fundos.
The release of the film sparked outrage in various sectors of Brazil, a country that is home to the largest Catholic population in the world.
Porta dos Fundos co-founder Fábio Porchat called the protests “homophobic” in statements to Variety magazine , and last month in a statement sent to CNN they stated:
We firmly believe that freedom of expression not only concerns artistic freedom, but is essential for a country with a flourishing democracy.
This film in which they show Jesus as gay is incredibly stupid and incoherent, painful performances, unfunny jokes, absolute ridiculousness with a regrettable production. I don't understand how they thought of uploading this resounding failure to Netflix
I really appreciate if you are offended by the Netflix website where Jesus is Gay? In the name of God they do horrible things like priests who rape, drug traffickers who persecute themselves (or however they are spelled) before going to settle a pending account or Islamic terrorists who kill for their beliefs.
