But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him,
saying,
We will not have this man to reign over us.
Luke 19:14
"AMC's show Preacher has set a new record for irreverence, making Jesus Christ out to be an adulterer and mentally handicapped.
Yet on Sunday, the show managed to become even more offensive. In one episode, the character portraying Jesus smokes a joint and imagines himself robbing a bank. Next episode, he will negotiate with Adolf Hitler regarding the apocalypse.
Early in the episode, Tyson Ritter — whose character is listed as "Humperdoo, Jesus Christ, Jesus" on IMDB — smokes a joint with Ruth Negga, playing Tulip O'Hare. He reminisces about having sex with a married woman in the Garden of Gethsemane on the night before his crucifixion — originally shown in an episode in 2017, as Newsbusters reported. In that original episode, Jesus was introduced as "Humperdoo" and portrayed as an inbred simpleton."
