How dare hollywood! It's OK to make fun of christians but woe to those who poke fun of muslims and islam. I am tired of hollywood. Biggest bunch of hypocrites I've ever seen. I am boycotting them from now on. Is this satan's revenge for the great success of Mel's Passion for the Christ? I'm sure there are many more movies like this to follow. Get ready for it! Da Vinci's code is next. (sp?) I pray that these movies are a complete failure and that God will somehow use these pieces of trash against them. May their arrogance be destroyed. Christians must stand up for their faith. We must speak out. Shame on hollywood and the big budget film industry.

this movie is simply one that tries to generalize the stereotype of hypocritical christians. while there are hypocritical christians, they are generally few and far between. besides, the movie unfairly takes shots at young christians who usually have not truly learned the way yet.

Nope. It isn't accurate from what I've read and heard about how they portray Christians. Not gonna' waste my time on more Hollywood garbage.

I've only seen a few previews. But the preview where Christians are "jokingly" stereotyped to be terrorists who bomb abortion clinics was enough to turn me off.

i saw this thread and I couldn't help but respond. First off to
aiki storm : hollywood makes fun of everyone. Ever seen van wilder? blazing saddles?
sinksf : i want to know what bubble you live in where there are no hypocritical christians. In my church there are many hypocrites. Not everyone is perfect, people make mistakes. I'm sure you have made mistakes and then told others to do differently. That makes you a hypocrite also.
++blood bought++ : have you or any others blasting this film actually seen it? it is accurate in it's portrayal of some christians. I've been to christian schools all my life, I've been in church all my life. This film made me uncomfortable at some points it was so accurate. I've known friends and family to act in the same "holier than thou" attitude that Mandy Moore's character portrays. I could go on and on with example of that.
jitc : it's an exaggeration. there are some militant christians that give the others a bad name. If someone professes Jesus and then bombs places that will be noticed. That joke is a stereotype of the militant christians.
msguidedangel : How is it not ok to poke fun at christians? did some of these ideas from the film hit too close to home for comfort? Is it not ok, because there is truth in these jokes. There are a lot of christians that act that way.

Sometimes it's hard to face the truth, this is how some christians are perceived. It's up to those who don't act like that to change the view. Lead by actions, not by blasting a movie that makes a ton of good points.

You do that you'll have to get another TV. Grin

No, I will not be seeing the movie at all. I get tired of my faith being ridicued. The perfect example of being ridicued is Michael Moores, Fahrenheit 9/11. Where he twists facts to what he wants to show. But in defence of Michael Moore, he is anti-american. Grin
