Yeah, yeah, lies everywhere except The Chosen, Inc. Your line of argument is too ridiculous to even keep responding to.
'The Chosen' is full of lies?...wasn't it you who in another Thread tried to shake down well-known Preachers and then when asked couldn't name one you listen to. You and your team 'anti-Chosen' are in the wee minority of viewers and when I think it through, who would have interest in slamming what will be the most watched series on Jesus ever, obviously.....the deceiver. Btw it's God's Word I posted you disagree with, not mine.

I welcome gay people into my life but not militant radicals. IMO the individual who brought that flag was too busy proselytizing their views on sexuality to receive the Gospel.
"Militant radical"? I don't recall anyone complaining about the person's behaviour. If he/she had come on set complaining that Christians are bigoted gay haters, you would have a point. According to the report I read, there was no such disruption. We need to remember that judging unbelievers is God's business, not ours. As a young man, I was in the military and I had to put up with the homosexuals who got through the net. (Homosexuals were not permitted to serve in those days). There were also adulterers, thieves and other sinners that I had to work and live with. Sin is sin. God is judge. As to the individual case with "The Chosen" set, I'd need to know a lot more before making a judgement.

Like you, I served my country in the military and did so honorably. Let me ask you, were you the only one in your military who didn’t sin because it seems you’re implying that?

Now back to the subject at hand. In today’s political climate, if you don’t believe a gay individual setting up rainbow flags on a Christian set isn’t radical then what is it? And stating someone is radical is not judging their standing with God, it’s strictly an observation. How does it feel to misjudge someone?

We are entitled to our opinions and observations and I read your post as being more about discernment.
The flag and all the rainbow personal paraphernalia is a symbol of militancy.
The nuance of the situation seems to escape people including Candace Owens.
It is not about the person it is about the symbol on the set, we have been conditioned to see it a benign emblem but it is not.

100% correct. But we’re the bad guys for being observant, all the while somewhere along the way it was conveniently forgotten that I stated quite clearly I welcome gay people into my life. And the sheep say, bahahahahaha. 🐑

Are you saying the one small flag is a threat to the majority Christian population on the production? I guess your team will never imagine or pray that the influence of the Gospel Truth may just reach this person. Christians shouldn't back down or be intimidated by these flags but rather be vessels of the Holy Spirit of Truth that can change hearts. Where does it say in the Bible to condemn sinners and not try to reach them??? Only those, like SOME of the Jewish leaders back then, were the unreachable ones. They were dressed in opulent clothing and sitting in judgmental positions and were blind to the Savior/Messiah/Lord Jesus Christ sent from God's love.
Unbelievable to hear the critics here compared to the thousands of supporters and I'm guessing none have watched this series through.

Cracks me up.
As a hardcore sinner being as belligerent as I could be, with a Queer Brother and Husband and friends with queers, most harsh I ever really said to them was...silly fa..ots, .icks are for chicks...
...but I get on a Christian Site, and you can feel the real hate for them.
I mean yeah, I hate the demons inside them.
but the hate on many Christians Sites are hate for the whole package like can't we get them to Hell any faster than this, God???

Did I say that? No I didn’t. I don’t care about the production, I’m looking at the bigger picture. That flag is a middle finger to Christendom but for some reason you support it.

Do you think that guy would display that flag on a Muslim set? You know full well he wouldn’t because that would be correctly deemed an insult to all of Islam.

I find it pretty incredible that Jenkins is whining about a YouTube thumbnail being
deceptive when the "authentic Jesus" he claims to present is fiction from start to finish.
This looks like another false statement from you. Jesus is presented as Jew. Is that a fictional Jesus?
Or true to Biblical fact? Jesus is depicted as the son of Mary, fiction, or non-fiction? Jesus calls His
disciples to follow Him, fiction, or non-fiction? Just a few examples... So odd to see people whine
and complain about lack of accuracy when they bend so many facts far from reality them selves.

More of your exaggerations. You really would be a better (and more effective) witness without them.
Why don't you focus on the exaggerations of the perverts? That would be far more productive. They have made a virtue out of their vices, but I have yet to see you point that out. You have failed to see what a serious threat the LBGTQ agenda is to everyone, particularly children.

This just looks like another false accusation from you along the same lines as
many you have made before, some right in this thread. Like this one:

And since Magenta did not actually refer to the article and what it said, she was indeed siding with the perverts.
You said that after I gave facts from the article which you pointed us to. I also mentioned that every comment I saw on the actual yt video was against the production, but somehow in your twisted mind you take that as an endorsement from me. You make an outrageous false accusation which is also a logical fallacy, repeatedly exaggerate to the point of being completely dishonest, and then want me to follow in your footsteps? No thanks. I don't even expect an apology from you because your conscience is seared on this matter.

You all are in the minority of people who disdain the show, as The Chosen just won fan based awards and got a slot in the world wide Christian Network TBN, which I don't doubt some here may be critics of also. Also, on the latest 2+hr vid the 20,000 viewers, at one point were, from the fast scrolling, 100 for it to maybe 10 against. This can easily be seen by reviewing the video.
We don't live in a Muslim country, would you want to and display a Cross?
Also, now who's a false accuser claiming now I support the flag? That's an outright lie. Now it's hard to believe anything from anybody on here who has resorted to insults and lies to make a point, esp against well known members here.

There are also legal factors to consider. Since The Chosen is a for-profit business and not a church, it's illegal for it to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation, particularly for a low-level, functional positions like camera operators. It would also be illegal for it fire the man because he displayed small gay pride flag. The show would get sued. And that's a good thing. The same laws that protect a man from getting fired for wearing a gay pride pin also protects Christians working in secular organizations from getting fired for wearing the cross. We live in a free society where you can't just fire people because they think or live differently than you do.

This is comparing apples to oranges again (as another did and then asked why do people do this? LOL), and
you also underplay the reason why most would not display such a thing on a Muslim set, let alone that the
likelihood of him being hired in the first place is about nil. More likely they would just throw him off a roof.

Stop with your incorrect projections already. I don’t distain anything; I’ve never seen the show; not one season, not one episode, not one minute, not one second. As for the rest of your blathering diatribe I didn’t even bother reading it. Life’s too short.
