The themes of Christianity -- religion in general -- are not easily captured on film. How do you translate the sublime love of a Father for His children into anything other than maudlin schlock (If you're Hollywood, that is)?

To truly explore the Christian experience, you have to have experienced that explosive dimension of the Creator's love. How many people in Hollywood do you think have ever known that feeling?

So it's hard for them to interpret Christianity in the context of anything but a price tag.

Well, in that case, they were completely off base on the profitability of the movie too, to the tune of hundreds of millions.
