Toy Story
Disney’s not-so-secret woke agenda is corrupting families. Toy Story’s latest story, Lightyear, is a prequel movie showing the origin of Buzz Lightyear. In the movie, however, a romantic relationship is shown as normal between two women, including a kiss between them.
Whether they included the kiss scene or not is inconsequential. Disney is actively working to break down the biblical values of manhood, womanhood, family, and the home, and they’ve been working at it for decades. We’re just reaping the result of years of sowing, and we’re almost to a critical mass in our society that believes it’s wrong to speak against the sin of sodomy.
This is a big deal.
And it starts with what you think. What you think is determined by what you listen to. What you listen to is, obviously, what you put in front of yourself.
Disney is no friend to your family, and good ol’ fashioned discernment is crucial for believers today. It may come to good ol’ fashioned boycotting, but, then, consistency becomes difficult. With all the conglomeration of super-giant businesses, you can’t buy anything without supporting something evil, either directly or indirectly.
So what do we do?
Ephesians 5:8-17 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
I was never allowed to watch Sleeping Beauty or Harry Potter because of the overt witchcraft, and we threw out cable and airwave TV altogether just to avoid the mess. I never grew up going to the theaters for lack of control over what we’d see, and we always watched movies together as a family rather than individually in our rooms.
Now, with on-demand everything, some of the particulars might have changed, but I’m still ultra-wary of this evil world and what it’s trying to do to me and my kids. I hate that the devil has more control over this generation than the Scriptures do, and I hate that his tools are so, so alluring.
Sometimes these are calls for drastic measures. I know a young pastor who personally has a no-Hollywood stance. Meaning, he doesn’t even know who Woody and Buzz Lightyear are, and couldn’t tell the difference between Iron Man and Superman. It’s a zero-attention policy.
And I respect that.
Even if I allow my own kids to watch a few shows and movies, I totally understand the parents who don’t. And, maybe that’s the wisest choice, and something we’ll all have to do one day.
Each family has the right to decide.
But in the meantime, I’d recommend staying away from overt sodomy, expressly included to undermine your biblical stances.
The voice of Lightyear, Chris Evans (also the actor for Captain America) said of those opposing the gay scene in Lightyear, “The real truth is those people are idiots… There’s always going to be people who are afraid and unaware and trying to hold on to what was before. But those people die off like dinosaurs… I think the goal is to pay them no mind, march forward and embrace the growth that makes us human.”
Well, we dinosaurs have believed this a whole lot longer than the past five minutes since this society has gone mad. For thousands of years now, civilizations have been built on the family dynamic of a man and woman, and every time we veer from God’s design, there’s trouble. Sodomy, polygamy, adultery, and fornication are all perversions of God’s good design, and none of these sins have benefited any society embracing them.
God’s design is right and good. Let’s uphold that.
