"And "The Wizard of Oz"?? I guess we know what that's inspired..."

Gay people should not be allowed to make lists.
I'm not sure why Christianity Today had a story that falls all over it's self for Lord of the Rings. This movie is very short on religion of any kind and full of evil, witchcraft and demons.

As for the list;

Rocky?? has anyone watched it lately?? It's a B movie at best.

Anything with Tom Hanks?? Who wants to start crying in front of a crowd?

Saving Private Ryan?? Any episode of Combat is better. Stalag 17 is much better and inspiring.

Down the list at #17 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest??? I saw this when it first came out. I did not leave the theater inspired that night. The guy who was trying to inspire everyone ended up getting a lobotomy then was suffocated and it took place in a mental ward.

There was definitely allot of emanate lisping going on when this list was put together.

I don't understand the connection between Wizard of Oz and gay people. Am I missing something??

LOTR is very moral story about good and evil. You can't show good without showing evil. The trilogy should have been in the top ten.

Thelma and Louise? Puh-leeze Loo-uise.

There is no witchcraft in LOTR, though there is evil and there are demonic forces. LOTR does not glorify those things, and shows the stuggle to defeat them, while showing that some succumb to the evil. Doesn't the Bible teach us how to struggle against evil, but also show that some will not be able to fight evil, but will give over to it?

Well now, the story of The Guy who inspired a lot of people and got beat up and nailed to a tree for His efforts seems to have stood the test of time...

Are you a Yooper as in Iron Mountain and all that, by the way?
