Almost two million people have signed a petition calling for Netflix' "gay Jesus" Christmas special to be removed from the streaming service.
The Brazilian dark comedy titled The First Temptation of Christ has sparked outrage after it depicted Jesus Christ as gay.
The petition is also asking for Porta dos Fundos (Back Door), the group behind the special to "be held responsible for the crime of villainous faith".
Until recently, works by the group had been posted on their YouTube channel, until Netflix bought their production and distribution rights.
The programme is described on Netflix as "Jesus, who's hitting the big 3-0, brings a surprise guest to meet the family.
Another petition with over 350,000 signatures described the film as a "brutal attack on religious freedom."
