"I hope and pray that you weren't trying to make an excuse for the amoral scum that run Hollyweird."

No. I was pointing out that your ridiculous assertion that the filmmakers chose the vocation based upon some intent to slam Christianity was based upon your decision to elevate your desire to fabricate some 'charge' over any factual basis for your claim. It was based upon a short story. They herded sheep in the short story.

Gremlins aren't hard to find when you spend your entire existence working for them.

The target of my comment (i.e. filmmakers) was, perhaps, the only inaccurate part of my comment. The artsy-fartsy writer that wrote the story was, I'm certain, aware of the allusion to the Good Sheperd and the mockery that 2 gay sheperds might have for a Christian.

And, don't kid yourself, I am certain that the filmmakers "got it" too.

If you tell me, all the filmmakers did was completely recreate the short story, fine.

If you tell me, that no one involved didn't happen to think "let's write a story about 2 gay sheperds" and not notice/be aware of the historical reference of Christ as the "Good Sheperd", then your dumber than you already sound.
