Disney was once the gold standard for family entertainment. Today, many Christians feel the company has abandoned its founding values and is actively promoting an agenda at odds with biblical Christianity.
This has changed substantially since the mid-2000s and accelerated dramatically in the 2010s and 2020s. Disney has become one of the most prominent corporate champions of LGBT ideology, critical race theory in children's content, and the marginalization of traditional family structures. This is not inference — Disney executives have stated these goals explicitly in leaked internal communications.
Proverbs 22:6 — "train up a child in the way he should go" — is a parental responsibility that Disney content increasingly works against rather than supporting.
The question is the trajectory. Each new Disney release must be evaluated individually rather than trusted by default. The Godly Score for Disney as a company is 20/100, reflecting its recent corporate direction — but individual titles must be scored separately.
Christians are called to be in the world but not of it (John 17:14-16). Practical discernment questions: What content is being amplified and normalized? What is the cumulative effect of sustained exposure on your values and worldview? Is the content consistent with Philippians 4:8? Score: see full guide.
