Disney, Netflix in Talks with Richard "Papa" Ostler Regarding Series About Book of Mormon Characters
by Kerleiehghigh Stevens
Both Disney and Netflix, known for reimagining classic stories with unnecessary racial and sexual changes, were delighted to discover Richard "Papa" Ostler's takes on Latter-day Saint beliefs.
Ostler has, for some time, imagined that one of the three Nephites was gay, despite zero evidence or indication of this in the scriptures, the words of prophets, or church leaders. Entertainment giants Disney and Netflix approached him regarding some ideas for portraying Book of Mormon stories.
"Our goal is to challenge the norms," said Disney executive Windy Blossum. "I know a lot of people think the entertainment business needs to entertain and earn business, but as long as I can make religious folks uncomfortable with garbage woke content, I'll do it even if we lose millions of dollars!"
"What if, instead of Ammon cutting off arms of Lamanites, he chases after them in drag?" asked Netflix producer Sasha Kumiah.
"And of course instead of this title of liberty it's a trans-inclusive pride flag that Captain Moroni holds up!" suggested Ms. Blossum.
"I mean, I know they actually hate members of my church, our leaders, our doctrine, our scriptures, and everything we hold sacred," admitted Ostler. "But helping them attack and tear down my faith seems like the nice thing to do... Plus, what if Alma and Amulek were gay?"
Mr. Ostler abruptly ended our conversation when we pointed out that they had separate families with wives and children, claiming he "didn't have time to talk to people who actually believe that hateful book..."
