Honestly, I believe the reason it felt so much more disgusting in Scamilton is becuase the basis of the 'story' is real life. Dramatised, sure but it's depicting real people's lives nonetheless. Having The Beast become Christian isn't having a huge amount of disrespect. Making Hamilton convert to christianity and blaming him for his son's death is. He was a real man, and him and his family truly did suffer from the loss of their child.

He loved going out hunting with his friends and his dogs. One day he told his wife about this very beautiful deer he saw and how he wanted to hunt it. She asked him not to do it. He did and when he shot his arrow into the deer she turned into his wife and the sky changed and with a voice of thunder the god of nature spoke of the deer as his young daughter and how he has to punish the king for it, so he turned the king into a beast.

God is cupid confirmed.

I thought Christian Beauty and the Beast would have Beast accept the rose, do a tango with it in his mouth and present it to Lumier. (That's the reason Sodom was destroyed, you know.) And Belle would be uninterested in any book that wasn't the Bible. As for the grey stuff, in the time and place, it was likely a liver pate. However, if you go to a restaurant in Disney Land and order "The Grey Stuff", you'll get vanilla pudding mixed with crushed Oreos.

Lol I didn't know what to expect but weirdly it's not nearly as bad as their Hamilton. I heard about trying the grey stuff at Disney. Maybe someday I will. 🙂

I mean...in some ways it's definitely better than Scamilton (in terms of singing, acting, overall energy levels in the cast, not having to censor lyrics/cut songs halfway through), but in some ways it's worse since at least Scamilton never once let you forget it's an illegal piece of religious propaganda. With this, you can actually genuinely start getting into the performance and story of the thing for quite long stretches of time and then suddenly BOOM! You're hit with an incredibly forced prayer scene and you're just there like "oh yeah...this is just trying to convert me to their brand of Christianity...". Like, this seems as though it could have been a genuinely good amateur production if only they'd paid for the license and not forced in the religious angle and in some ways, that makes this hurt more than Scamilton (excluding the homophobic sermon at the end of that one) since that was kind of obviously doomed from the very beginning... And it's not as if good and popular religious themed musicals aren't already a thing: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat was literally written for primary school-aged kids (7-11) to be able to perform so it's hardly complicated or inappropriate (barring the scene with Potiphar's Wife but even that can be staged so that it's not obvious what's actually going on), Godspell tells multiple stories and parables from the New Testament and even directly quotes the Bible in many scenes and does it all in a fun way that actively encourages the cast to show off their various talents, Jesus Christ Superstar...actually, they probably wouldn't want to do that one... But the point still stands.

Haven't watched the entire video yet, but you mentioned that Gaston is quite violent in this, with the slapstick humour, and I don't know if you've seen the stage version, but there's a lot of that in there as well. (Including a scene with Lefou spitting out teeth after being punched.) Also, the whole "the staff taking part of the blame" thing is at least in the stage version as well. (And the slowly turning more into objects thing, like in the live action movie.) It is strange to watch this and not have the songs from the stage version in there as well, because I'm like. A, Beauty and the Beast on stage. Must be the musical, with those songs. EDIT: Evermore is *not* from the stage play. The stage play has If I Can't Love Her, which is amazing. It's the finale of the first act, after Belle runs away. Then, where the live action movie has "Evermore", the stage version has a reprise of If I Can't Love Her. If I can't Love Her is an amazing song and I love it so much. EDIT 2: The townsfolk getting their happily ever after was not in the stage version, no.
