Pat Boone has ripped into Saturday Night Live after they mocked his film God's Not Dead 2 in a parody sketch titled "God is a Boob Man."
In an interview on Monday, Boone, 81, accused the "diabolical" skit of being "anti-Christian," "anti-Semitic" and "outright sacrilege."

The sketch in question aired on SNL over the weekend and is a parody trailer that focuses on a baker, who refuses to prepare a cake for a gay couple as a result of her Christian faith.
The woman is then harassed by the couple's Jewish lawyer and a judge, who force her to proclaim that "God is gay," but she insists that God is a heterosexual.
"God has a sense of humor. Why else would he invent the porcupine and the giraffe?" Boone told THR on Monday. "Something can be devilishly funny, but this skit is diabolical. God has only one real enemy - Satan. Satan ridicules faith, and they're taking Satan's side.
"They're also ridiculing me and the film, telling impressionable young people not to see it because it's ridiculous," he continued. "Then they throw in that the lawyer is Jewish to make the Christian look even worse, but it's just anti-Semitic."
The actor/singer's film God's Not Dead 2, which stars Melissa Joan Hart and Jesse Metcalfe, revolves around a public school teacher, who faces criticism after answering a student's question in class about Jesus.
Boone said that he was a fan of the NBC show but they crossed a line with the skit. "I won't waste my breath demanding an apology. They don't answer to me. They answer to the one they defame, and there are consequences," he said.
"This skit was outright sacrilege," he added. "They know if they did this to Muslims they'd have to be put into the witness protection program. There's nothing sacred at SNL - except maybe the words 'Mohammad' or 'Allah.' They'd never take those names in vain, but when they called God a 'boob man,' they took his name in vain."
