Yeah I don't know why so many people are in a hurry to see this movie ....


I mean you know how it's going to end already ......


...... why not just stay home and wait for it to come out on DVD?




and for the record I think this movie has the potential to be VERY BAD for America

While I'm an atheist I don't have much problem with anyone's choice of worship as long as it doesn't interfere with anyone else, does no harm and isn't pushed on anyone


This movie may start a huge Christan movement in America - which could be ok until Christians start trying to dictate laws which effect me and trying to force their religion on me (which is a part of some Christianity)


on the other hand Christianity and a firm belief in God are great for some, particular those who keep it to themselves and their places of worship

Example - am old high school chum of mine(with whom I was very close in High School) looked me up in the past few year. He has been over 2 years without a drink of Alcohol (he was a raging Alcoholic which landing him in a few bad situations). His faith in a higher power coupled with his bible studies and semi-regular church going (he didn't do AA) have helped him through not drinking and particularly through trying times such as the passing of his Father this January

We occasionally talk religion (but only if I bring it up) as I find comparative religions interesting but he respects my position that religion is superstition as I respect what his beliefs are and I acknowledge what his beliefs have help him accomplish

and he has no problem with my drinking while we watch football or go out to dinner
