Dude’s got a mote in his eye. Big mote. Nah, that’s no mote. That’s a beam.

I saw it. Was hoping it would be better. The plot is pretty minimal, time-line jumps around a lot, there are historical errors, and it was just generally less compelling than I had hoped it would be, given the subject matter.

The writer is affiliated with Mark Wingfield. A total leftist nut

Wife and I saw it yesterday. I caught more than a whiff of “Hitler was just like Trump.”

He lost me when he pontificated about Trump. And I don’t plan to see the movie.

I did experience a great resonance with the movie version of Bonhoeffer’s decision to join the conspiracy against Hitler.”

I found it impossible not to draw comparisons to Donald Trump as the movie told its story. Here my own depiction of Trump as “evil” crosses path with Bonhoeffer’s conclusion about the father of lies.

“I found it impossible not to draw comparisons to Donald Trump as the movie told its story. Here my own depiction of Trump as “evil” crosses path with Bonhoeffer’s conclusion about the father of lies.”

And there it is.

“In my book Good and Evil in the Garden of Democracy, I argue Trump is a son of Satan merely based on the incredible way he has built his own power base on lies. John 8:44 is never far from my lips: “You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.””

And yet this dude probably worships at the demonrat altar of Zero/Brandon/Kommiela/Pelousy/Soros- all of whom tell the truth all the time, and advocate for the killing of babies as a sport.

“Another powerful line sees Bonhoeffer condemn church leaders, telling them the church should be a place of refuge, not a place of power. He accuses them of “choosing full pews over the truth.”
Sound familiar, American megachurches?”

What power do American megachurches have? The church in the United States has falling attendance.

All I can say is, “FU author, whoever you are. Nobody cares what you have to say because it’s all BS”.

And I didn’t even know there was a new Bonhoffer movie being released.

Did the film include Bonhoeffer’s comment on the leftwing nondenominational Riverside Church (which is much worse today) where he said it “preaches everything except Christ?”

I know the left, which long ago claimed him for their own (without most of his theology) really hated that being in the book.

Riverside’s faux Christianity is why he instead went to visit and was impressed by the faith of those in the black church.

Film makers routinely lie about real people in order to sell more tickets. The worst lie I have personally seen is the depiction of Jenny Lind in “The Greatest Showman”.

Fred Astaire knew about this, and put a clause in his will that no film should ever be made about his own life.

It’s not like they put a phaser in hand and beamed him onto a Bird of Prey

The Germans choice was Hitler or Communists not socialists. Not sure there was any difference.

It seems to me a pastor should not get in a plot to kill his country’s leader.

Regarding lying, which leader hasn’t told multiple lies? Biden, Harris, Clinton?

Though I am one who can be prolix, I have to say this writer is hardly concise.
