A new film starring Paris Jackson as Jesus Christ is not sitting well with some people.
The 22-year-old model, actor and daughter of the late pop star Michael Jackson is set to star in the film Habit, opposite Bella Thorne and musician Gavin Rossdale.
According to a press release, Thorne plays a “street smart, party girl with a Jesus fettish who gets mixed up in a violent drug deal and finds a possible way out by masquerading as a nun.”
Jackson, who plays Jesus, appears to her several times throughout the film dressed as in a traditional robe, with tousled waves and a nose ring.
Uhh so are we just gonna ignore the fact that Paris Jackson might be playing A LESBIAN JESUS in the new upcoming film, “The Habit”???

The film has been denounced as “Christianophobic garbage” in a petition to prevent its release, which has gained over 260,000 signatures so far.
The Change.org petition started by Vivien N had targeted Warner Bros and Lionsgate and claims that the film Habit portrays Jesus as a “lesbian woman.”
“A new blasphemous Hollywood film is predicted to come out soon depicting Jesus as a lesbian woman,” it says.
“Distributors haven’t picked it up as of yet, so let’s please spread awareness and wake people up to the Christianophobic garbage that is spread nowadays, but is somehow accepted and praised by society.”
