Sadly this world is Satan’s domain- and those that participated in that movie are Satan’s little tools doing His bidding- Equally sad is the fact that many will fall for the deceit
...”I understand that companies like Hulu and Netflix have to cater to a broad audience to make a profit. I am not going to agree, enjoy or approve of every video they produce or show but that book is so flawed, so hateful and so filled with demonstrably false presumptions U refuse to even consider Hulu as an option for streaming video.”...
I began to read “The Handmaid’s Tale,” because my high school sophomore Granddaughter was forced to read it. I was appalled and did not finish the book. However, I did make clear to my child what the writer was trying to accomplish politically through the writing of this horrible piece of fiction. That the hedonistic movie makers have aggrandized such a piece of work is not surprising, is it? We have Netflix but have largely abandoned it. We now look for older TV shows, such as “Everybody Loves Raymond, and Frasier,” to help us relax after a busy day. The pollution of young minds is increasing in this society and a saturation point is not far into the future. How hard it is to find wisdom and truth in such an environment as this?
i do. I don’t hate God, it’s interesting to me. The book was good too. I read lots of stuff that would not be approved of here. But here i am. There might be 1 or 2 more. Smoke us out.
The Handmaids Tale is about islam, period, whether or not the author actually REALIZES or will admit it is of no consequence.
I would also point out, as I am a published author of fiction and trying to publish more, that the defense “It’s just fiction” doesn’t wash. All authors, every one wants to influence their audience in some way. It may be to just entertain them but “The Handmaiden’s Tale” is not an entertaining novel. It is dark, hard to read and disturbing. The author is clearly trying to influence the way people think.
At the risk of being overly self-promoting.
