Hope this wins people to Christ
Hope this film wins many to Christ
shareUnfortunately most Christian films turn viewers off of Christianity--thinking that Christians must be artistically stunted. And unfortunately that's the case for most evangelicals I've encountered who either produce or watch films of this nature. They usually don't know what constitutes good story-telling or good acting or good directing. This is why I usually ignore Christian movie reviews of nonChristian movies: the Christian reviewers typically don't grasp the point of the story but instead focus on how many swear words there are, acts of violence, or what-have-you.
shareWell because u can only push a lie so far, and since movies are fake, they only highlight the hidden or obvious motive, religion. Also a grown person won't switch to religions. U have to have a driving reason, something very traumatizing, problems, being insane, unusual stuff, a common trait most religious ppl have.
The increase in human knowledge is the cause of the decline of religions.

You can differ from the other poster but it is very true. A movie will not win over christians. People to turn to religion when they are going through a tough time and are weak. As a secular humanist I will never believe in your or any religion following a fantasy. You can believe in the bible all you want, but there are many many many people who simply cannot swallow such a huge and obvious lie. Luckily humanity is waking up. The smartest people in the world are ahteists and those who are religious have a very smart way of interpreting the bible and don't believe in a God in the way you do.

Amen
shareAnd i hope it turns many people atheist, but hey, we´re all different, and can´t all agree, Merry X-Mas :-)
shareI'm guessing the majority of mankind will never watch this (especially with such a crappy low rating), so it's safe to say that everyone will stay the same.
And a 'Happy New Year' to you also!
Im not a devout person, but atheists are morons.
shareAtheists are amazing people when compared to Christians. Christians give spirituality a terrible reputation and you won't find me letting my kids anywhere near one. Dirty, irrational, dogmatic fundamentalists. They should all be shot with rusty spoons.

Asking me to disprove Christianity is ridiculous. At any rate I never said that what I was saying about atheists was proof against Christianity. In fact I would not call myself an atheist but I do think it is ridiculous to believe in Christianity. If you really think an all powerful god who created the world in 6 days is sitting up in heaven and looking down at Humanity and its thousands of religions and favours Christians out of all of them then it is you that needs to offer proof.
That fact that most Christians are jerks, idiots, child abusers, unrepentant sinners,etc. may not disprove the validity of Christianity but it proves to me at least that Christianity as a system of morality simply does not work.
My religion is nature. I go into the forest and see the world in its natural state and I can't help think there is some great and powerful force behind it, but it is a long, long, long way from there to a religion based on a historically dubious book that has no internal validity, and the concept of an omnipotent, omnipresent god who used to like slavery and infanticide and child rape and genocide but has now turned his hand to more peaceful pursuits.
Historians can't even categorically prove the existence of Jesus let alone God so I think the burden of proof lies in your feeble hands buddy.

I take great offence to you calling me a moron. How very 'Christian' of you to be judgmental of a group of people you clearly know nothing about. Absolutely disgusting.
shareI'm saved - soon as I saw that heading about winning people to Christ I decided not to bother with the movie - that's all I need another stupid bloody movie about religion - the curse of mankind
shareAlthough there are a couple of mentions about being thankful to God, this movie has nothing to do with Christianity.
shareLMAO well said!

What about atheistic b.s.? Such as the beliefs in--
- something from nothing (or conversely: eternal matter)
- order from disorder
- morality from amorality
- mind from mindlessness
- personhood from impersonal nature
- the descent of all creatures from an original common ancestor, despite the fact that actual empirical observation consistently demonstrates impassable boundaries between types of creatures
'Atheistic bs'
The ONLY thing atheists agree on is whether or not a God a exists. To which the answer is no. That's it, nothing else.
All those things you've listed as 'atheistic bs' it's completely up to the individual and is not a trait of an atheist that's just absolutely and completely wrong.
I honestly didn't realize this was a Christian movie until I came to this board, I remember one reference to God that was very casual, but nothing else to suggest it was meant to be Christian.
Same thing we do every night try to take over the world
