US Christian group condemns Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s story as ‘making satanism appear normal’
More than 20,000 Christians have signed a petition calling for the cancellation of Good Omens, the television series adapted from Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman’s 1990 fantasy novel – unfortunately addressing their petition to Netflix when the series is made by Amazon Prime.
The six-part series was released last month, starring David Tennant as the demon Crowley and Michael Sheen as the angel Aziraphale, who collaborate to prevent the coming of the antichrist and an imminent apocalypse. Pratchett’s last request to Gaiman before he died was that he adapt the novel they wrote together; Gaiman wrote the screenplay andworked as showrunner on the BBC/Amazon co-production, which the Radio Times called “a devilishly funny love letter to the book”.
But Christians marshalled by the Return to Order campaign, an offshoot of the US Foundation for a Christian Civilisation, disagree. More than 20,000 supporters have signed a petition in which they say that Good Omens is “another step to make satanism appear normal, light and acceptable”, and “mocks God’s wisdom”. God, they complain, is “voiced by a woman” – Frances McDormand – the antichrist is a “normal kid” and, most importantly, “this type of video makes light of Truth, Error, Good and Evil, and destroys the barriers of horror that society still has for the devil”. They are calling on Netflix to cancel the show.
Gaiman responded to the petition on Twitter, writing: “I love that they are going to write to Netflix to try and get #GoodOmens cancelled. Says it all really. This is so beautiful … Promise me you won’t tell them?”
The publisher and science fiction critic Cheryl Morgan tweeted: “Miraculously God has already done it. Don’t tell them She put it on Amazon instead.”
Return to Order is based on the writings of the author John Horvat II. It “calls upon Americans to put principles into actions by working toward what is called an organic Christian society”. Another of its petitions in April called on Walmart to “stop selling Satanic products” following a 2018 protest against a “blasphemous ice cream chain called Sweet Jesus”.
everyone knows Crowley and his plants are trauma reenactment but why does no one see the same thing with Az and books? he was guarding Eden and "failed" and then Crowley was about to tempt Eve and humans gained Knowledge and then is fretting if he did the wrong thing so he spends all of time amassing knowledge trying to prove to himself that yes knowing stuff is worth it but also he doesn't sell his books because he is still trying to protect people from knowing stuff while loving knowledge
oh FUCK. and in the tv show, he was “on apple tree duty,” meaning he was also involved with the whole thing…
he failed to guard knowledge once and he doesn’t want to fail again!
okay but hear me out
hozier literally wrote From Eden about A/C and then Crowley stole his look
I thought you were JOKING
watching spy kids: island of lost dreams aka the single most ambitious and masterful piece of modern american cinema ever created
holy shit the creature designs in this movie were NEXT FUCKING LEVEL
spy kids 2:
me, approximately age 9:
“do you think god stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he’s created?” is probably THE hardest line of dialogue ever spoken in the history of modern film and people regularly search google for its origin just to find out steve buscemi said it in a movie about adolescent spies from 2002
it amazes me how much endless entertainment i can get out of Game of Thrones despite the fact that I don’t even watch the fucking show.

Ariana Grande Fans Attacked An Asian Writer With Racist Dog Eating Jokes — And Ari Responded
A 27-year-old Toronto-based freelance writer, Roslyn Talusan, was bombarded by racist and transphobic messages and tweets from countless Ariana Grande fans after openly criticizing the singer on Twitter.
Talusan spoke with BuzzFeed News where she explained that while both Grande and herself had apologized to each other, she felt “victim-blamed and gaslit” by the singer’s response. Adding that because Grande had failed to “denounce the racist, misogynist, transphobic, and otherwise violent harassment her stans have waged in her name,” she is “implicitly condon[ing] it.”
TW for rape in that article including pretty violent language
explanation: Talusan, who also has a history of writing openly about her own experiences with sexual assault and even works on the Board of the Toronto Rape Crisis Centre/Multicultural Women Against Rape, found her past traumas being used against her.
Ariana’s response?
“They’re just reacting with similar energy to what they’ve read honestly. Your tweets were hostile. They’re upset and they’re passionate. I apologize on their behalf because I don’t love that type of behavior from anyone. They know that tho. I’ve said that to them a million times.”
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh how you say…unacceptable
marvel is disney’s forever cash cow! it appeals to children, teens, and sweaty adults! it’s all quite loud and colorful, with the same safe formula every time, but with different directors and tweaks to make it whatever the fuck memorable each time. plus the reliance on violence to push the plot will give them those dank US military checks until explosions go extinct. truly we live in horrific times but i don’t really care
thank u all for letting me know the military quit cutting checks for the MCU after Avengers because they got offended bc the fictional magic men are an alternative to the american military. i’m sorry i was misinformed but more importantly that’s really, really, really, really, really fucking funny
Just to clarify - the Pentagon pulled out of the Avengers (and thus the MCU) because it wasn’t clear whether SHIELD was a branch of the US government, and, if so, where it fell in relation to the military in terms of hierarchy. (Source)
So, it wasn’t just “magic men are unrealistic”, it was “magic men are unrealistic and we don’t know if we outrank them.”
A friendly reminder
“thor’s not a communist” then explain THIS
