AceShowbiz - Sarah Silverman may have received backlashes from making fun of Jesus on his birthday but she is not retracting her statement. She also made an explanation behind her original tweet which caused outrage among the conservatives.
Silverman wrote on Twitter on Friday, December 25, "MERRY CHRISTMAS! Jesus was gender fluid!" The 45-year-old comedienne was quickly bombarded with disapproval from her followers who did not agree with her opinion. One user wrote, "Have some respect. Not even funny." Another wrote, "You're real brave and funny now. We'll see whose laughing when you meet him."
One took a jab at her failed relationship with Jimmy Kimmel, writing, "No wonder Jimmy dumped u, then married someone else. U have become a bitter unfunny hack like @Rosie @JoyVBehar @billmaher." One followers even suggested her to repent, tweeting, "The offer of salvation in Jesus Christ, the King of the Jews, is still open to you. Check a local church tomorrow. #grace."
Silverman, who is now dating actor Michael Sheen, said in a tweet on Tuesday, "I prefer not to respond to nonsense but here (re Jesus being gender fluid tweet, which I still love)." The tweet was accompanied by a screen shot of a short message about how she came up with "gender fluid."
