Called an instant classic by some, a fake movie trailer shown on “Saturday Night Live” depicts “one woman [fighting] to prove, once and for all, that God is straight.”
As Raw Story summarizes, “Despite being told by a co-worker that ‘gays are the most powerful force in America,’ she refuses and what ensues is a court case following a meeting with a Jewish lawyer from the ACLU who tells her all her legal problems will go away if only she’ll say: ‘God is gay.’
“We have to do something,” a legislative aide pleads to a governor before Bayer walks in and explains, “I want to deny basic goods and services to gay people.”
“Everybody out,” the governor instructs his staff. “This is the priority now.”
Other reactions:
Vulture.com noted: “Vanessa Bayer is part of that most persecuted group in American: Doe-eyed Christian bakers who are being forced by gay couples to deny their faith. No, no, trust me. This is happens all the time. Have you seen ‘God’s Not Dead’ or ‘God’s Not Dead 2’? You should brush up on the classics of American propaganda cinema. Then you’ll really appreciate ‘God Is a Boob Man.'”
One commenter on YouTube added: “And Allah is an ankle guy.”
We crazy, liberal, sinful, progressive Mississippians know to laugh to keep from crying. That’s why there’s SNL. https://t.co/rBtC9PLrpB

This might be my favorite thing SNL has done in the past year. https://t.co/MCKzpwsNAg

This goes out to anyone whose greatest fear is gay people paying you to do what you chose to do for a living.https://t.co/zGpycdTZ8x

Leftists controlling network TV mock God and those who worship Him and keep His commandments. No more SNL for me. https://t.co/O1pwS72RGl
