Of course there are,but this guy wanted to serve but not to kill,he had the courage to stick by his principles and go into harms way without a weapon.
If the film portrays the others as idiots because they wanted to serve to save their country then you have a point.
I don’t know what the military policy was at the time,obviously the people involved looked at it as a way to avoid service, which Doss did not,he went into horrific battle weapon free,who among you criticizing would go to Iraq,Syria or anywhere else without a weapon?
Now if every person in the country felt the same way,we would be in a world of hurt,this world is ruled by the aggressive use of force,but accommodation can be made for people such as this

My opinion was on why Hollywood liked this movie.

Go ahead and tell everyone why you think Hollywood likes this movie.

Otherwise, save your sanctimonious scrawl for someone else.

There are a group of people on Free Republic who really want to show everyone how righteous they are and they aren’t the least afraid to make up words for other people.
