How will we protect our grandchildren? Look at what this world is coming to...

Forward this Email to a Friend The Week | Cancelled Netflix Dear Friends, A little over a week ago my wife, Debra, told me about a new movie on Netflix called Cuties. She was disgusted by it, and asked me, "How will we protect our grandchildren? Look at what this world is coming to!" We immediately decided to cancel our subscription to the streaming service.  A few days later, I spoke to my team about launching a petition against Netflix in order to encourage people to stop supporting them as long as they promote the sexual exploitation of young girls. "How will we protect our grandchildren? Look at what this world is coming to!" We launched the petition site, www.PetitionAgainstNetflix.com, and the initial response has been overwhelming. Of course, I have received lots of messages. Most of the messages have been in support of what we stand for in this petition, and some not so much. Here are the three top criticisms and questions; I want to address them here.  Why did we use the image from the poster on the petition site? Some people took offense to the image that we used, and I can understand why. It should make people upset to see what the movie Cuties is presenting. I am sorry if the image offended some on our email list, but we need our friends to be upset enough to take action.   Did I watch the movie? No. I did not watch the movie, and I will not be watching it. I did watch the trailer, however. And, one of our team leaders, a mom concerned about what her teenage sons could see on the platform, skimmed through it, and she too removed Netflix from their home. It is a totally inappropriate display of pre-adolescent sexuality, and I don't need to watch it in its entirety to know that.  Isn't Cuties advocating against the sexualization that is happening among young girls (age 11)? I do not buy this. To depict a stripper-like dance by 11-year-olds—what some would consider soft-core pornography—and then take a stance at the end of the movie that your intention was against this kind of sexualization is wrong. Period.  We knew that by launching this petition, we would be inviting many viewpoints. One simply cannot take a stand today without facing opposition. However, lots of people have written to us and said they were cancelling Netflix, and we couldn't be happier.  On our petition site we have also given an alternative to Netflix. We have partnered with RedeemTV, a Christ-centered SVOD platform, that not only carries films we can be proud of, they are also a donor-based solution (as we are). This means it is free to watch the content they provide, and you can make donations as God leads. I applaud their efforts, and am proud to partner with them. You can sign up at www.RedeemTV.com. We are working on additional partnerships as well to continue to bring you alternatives to Netflix. A few months ago, I read that Netflix had come out with a film that portrayed Jesus as a homosexual. I asked myself at that time, "Why isn't there a movement to do something about this? Why are we so complacent in our support for Netflix?"  Then, when my wife showed me the trailer to Cuties, it was the last straw. Enough is enough! I decided to speak out. I know a lot of other groups have as well. The time is right (and maybe over-due) to stop giving our time and money to such an organization.  "The time is right (and maybe over-due) to stop giving our time and money to such an organization." I appreciate your support of RevelationMedia. Perhaps we will not always agree 100%, but our commitment is to continue providing quality Christian content for America, and to the global mission's community. We are looking at a number of films now that will be made available for free online in the coming months. I also want to remind you of our special offer to receive two free Pilgrim's DVDs and/or our Torchlighters Gift Set, which includes 16 episodes of Heroes of the Faith, when you support RevelationMedia. These are great content to share with others as well. Also remember, if you cannot afford to donate, but believe this content would bless your family or organization, please write to us and explain your situation. We will send the DVDs to you.  Please pray for us as we continue to take a stand against what Netflix is doing in airing shows and movies like Cuties. The content that they offer is likely only going to get worse. We cannot close our eyes to this reality. Satan is at work, and sexual perversion is at the top of his list. Please share the petition site on social media, and with your friends and families. You can forward this email as well to spread the word about the petition. I would love to see 100,000 signatures before we present the petition to Netflix.  Have a blessed Sunday!
