Boston University will be showing the the late Terrence McNally’s blasphemous play, Corpus Christi, at the its College of Fine Arts between Thursday, April 10 to Sunday, April 13. This film is a sacrilegious reinterpretation the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ, portraying Him and the Apostles as homosexuals!
According to press reports Corpus Christi is a twisted retelling of the Gospel narrative into a homosexual story. It centers around a homosexual “Christ-like” figure (named Joshua) in Corpus Christi, Texas, who has homosexual relations with his “Apostles!” The play is full of disgusting and false portrayals of Our Lord’s character. For example:
- Joshua (i.e. “Jesus”) is depicted passionately kissing the “Apostles.”
- He also officiates a “marriage” two homosexual “apostles” after which the “couple” kiss to seal the covenant.
- He viciously strikes a female character.
- Our Lord’s “love” and “compassion” are warped to refer to approval of unnatural vice
The New York Post reported that Corpus Christi also uses Gospel passages in a contrived way. For example, McNally’s Pontius Pilate asks Joshua (“Jesus”): ” ‘Art Thou King of the queers? [i.e., homosexuals]’ ‘Thou sayest [i.e. yes],’ Joshua answers.”
The above description is just a few of many, many more such abuses. To show Our Lord and His apostles as homosexuals is an abomination that must not go unchallenged.
Please defend Jesus’ honor by peacefully and prayerfully protesting against this outrageous blasphemy. Send your message to the Boston University, and demand that this performance be cancelled at once.
