Capitalizing on the pendulum swing towards faith in America, Disney just released its first animated Christian character in 20 years, but the series was modified from another trans acceptance story and leaves many questioning: Is this Christian?
“Win or Lose” from the Pixar department features Laura who prays and pleases God on her dad’s baseball team. It originally was a story about Kai who comes out as trans to his/her dad, but Disney scrapped the LGBTQ agenda and turned it into a Christian plot.
Neither Christians nor LGBTQ seem pleased with refurbished cartoon series – LGBTQ because they lost a propaganda piece. But why are Christians not terribly happy?
“Don’t get too excited,” Taylor Alesia says on her channel. “If we use our discernment and we use our common sense, we can ask ourselves: When has Disney ever been a fan of Jesus?”
In episode 1, Laura’s mother consults Tarot cards. While Laura smartly disavows her mother’s occultism, Disney is sticking with a mainstay: magic. Indirectly, Disney is still stirring up curiosity among audiences to experiment with New Age, Alesia says.
Even more concerning, the last episode appears to show a homosexual love interest, she says. “The very first episode was a Christian episode, and the very last one is the complete opposite of the Bible,” she says. “This has been Satan’s bait.”
At best, “Win or Lose” is a weird hybrid. Disney is not cleaning up its act; it’s cashing in where the money is just like when Beyonce dropped a country album. A 2022 poll revealed that 70% of Americans now eschew anything Disney related because the company pushes sexual perversion on children.
But if you think Alesia is blowing things out of proportion, listen to what far-left propagandists say. LGBTQ Nation linked Disney’s decision to protagonize a Christian to Trump and Republicans who “ terrorize the [transgender] community and use Christianity as justification, all the while claiming that Christians are being persecuted by diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.”
Yup, kid movie = domestic terrorism.
The last time Disney portrayed a praying person was 1996 when the Hunchback of Notre Dame with a song, “God, help the outcast,” according to CBN.
Now, Laura – who echoes back to anxiety-ridden Riley from Inside Out – prays to do good on her dad’s middle school baseball team: “Dear Heavenly Father, please give me strength. I just want to catch a ball or get a hit.”
If you do watch the series, talk with your kids and teach them to discerning viewers of Disney movies. It’s generally true that Disney has progressed from subliminal to overt anti-Christian messages. The television series premiered on Disney+ in February after delaying its original release and version in 2023.
