God's Gang is an interfaith children's YouTube series, created by Nimrod-Avraham May. It focuses on a team of four theologically-themed superheroes, Chris Cross, Ninjew, Sumuslim, and Taekwonhindu, putting their differences aside and using the harmonized powers of their respective religions to defend the world from evil.God's Gang had picked up a pretty split controversy upon the release of its pilot, due to its strange nature. While some criticized the show for being potentially offensive to certain faiths by being rather sacrilegious in that all of these signifiers of people's religions are going around, beating people up, utilizing mild stereotypes note (like having Ninjew being nerdy or having Sumuslim using bombs as weapons), and having characters of their own faith fraternize with people of the faiths they disagree with, others praised the show for teaching kids religious tolerance at such a young age, especially in such a fun, adventurous, and heartwarming way.At first glance, the show can be stigmatized as an innocently insensitive show made by a team of mostly white writers. However, the team working on God's Gang is very diverse, both religiously and culturally, even including an "Interfaith Council" on the writing team, consisting of high clerics of their religions, note (Priest Brandon Jones, Rabbi Shlomo Chayen, Imam Abed Mawasi, and a Hindu specialist, Sanya Tyagi) all serving as cultural consultants, making sure the characters of their respective faiths are being portrayed accurately and respectfully, suggesting that despite any unfortunate implications the show may let on, God's Gang is made in good faith. | |

Furry Confusion: Although such characters as Dogma and Le Dove can speak, other animals such as the whales in Episode 1 are normal animals, who can only communicate in whale sounds, giving Taekwonhindu's superpowers purpose. | |

Punny Name: All of the characters have names that are puns on their religions and fighting techniques; Chris Cross - The Karate fighting Christian. Ninjew - The Ju-Jitsu fighting Jew. Sumuslim - The Sumo fighting Muslim. Taekwonhindu - The Taekwondo fighting Hindu. There's also "Dogma", who's a holy dog in Heaven, who gives God's Gang their missions. "Le Dove" is supposedly a pun on "Love", a feature of all four religions, the show is primarily focused on promoting. | |
