Was Christ a true Christian in your eyes ?
Matthew 4:1-11 King James Version (KJV)
4 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

You can't speak for ALL "Gay's" and Christ was CHRIST he was the Son of God, he was able to do that because of who he is and we are only able to do that with and thru his help. We are not supposed to judge, we don't know what others trials are. With God's help they can overcome them eventually.

John 9:1-4 King James Version (KJV)
9 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
Just because someone is tempted to do something does not mean they are willfully doing it or "sinning"
I believe God loves all his children and wants them to find happiness.

I always find it funny people throwing their toys in the air because the lead in the new stars movies is female! The Horror! How dare they feminist Nazis!
Seriously feel free to criticise the films for being unoriginal and derivative, having the worlds slowest ship chase, what another bloomin Death Star
But complaining because the leads the female, get a life.

No. But they apparently treat their employees so badly that many of them, even those who have worked for the company for many years, are barely able to scrape by.
Does Disney discourage or work against faith? No.
Is the Disney corporation evil? Possibly.

I feel some people forget the prequel trilogy. Lucas seemed pretty intent on drilling his franchise into the grave.
The new movies may not have the same charm as the original trilogy, but these are hardly bad movies. I loved Force Awakens, and I thought Last Jedi was really good. Rogue One is, in my opinion, arguably the best Star Wars movie to date. Still haven't seen the Han Solo movie yet.
I don't get the hate for the new movies. I can understand some criticisms, such as having yet another death star in Force Awakens, but on the whole the movies are quite good, or at the very least they are quite good in comparison to the prequel trilogy.
Disney, if anything, has rescued the movie franchise.

Is Rey the source of the Star Wars hate? If so that would be unbelievably petty and ridiculous. The character of Rey is fantastic, and Daisy Ridley is great in that role.
If the criticism honestly boils down to "girls are icky and they can't come into my clubhouse" then that is unbelievably sad.

*ahem* The title of the movie is "The Force Awakens," not "Star Wars: Hey, Hey, make way for Rey!"
So, don't read too much into it, Inky!

TFA was okay, but TLJ basically broke the series. I think a good way to understand why a lot of people dislike the movie, even if they wouldn't put it in so many words, is to realize that Lucas' approach to the SW universe was very much in line with Tolkien's thoughts in his essay On Fairy Stories. TLJ violates and abandons these sort of principles or thought process, and moves the universe more towards a post-modern, Game of Thrones-lite, direction. To do this, it destroys the Eucatastrophe (as Tolkien calls it) of the previous films. That's why some people hate it.

Are we referring to the death/passing of Luke? He’ll be back for the next film.
He had to pass on in last Jedi, since can you imagine the situation if Mark Hamill was to Ill for the third one? The death of Carrie fisher ensured that the second film would see the death/passing of Luke.

No, I mean the complete destruction of his character. Every single OT character has been basically destroyed by the ST. Luke dying wasn't a problem, him dying a complete and utter failure was. Also, no, Carrie Fisher's death had nothing to do with Luke dying. They actually planned on her being the central OT character in IX, and so had to completely rewrite the script following her death.

Remember in the Star Wars universe death is no necessarily the end. They were mirroring obi won kenobis death.

I'm sure they happy that you aren't thereWalt Disney was always into the magical... but his properties didn't really go down hill until his death.
I really try to avoid being there when it's Gay Days in the parks.
