You will find some of the Freeple on this thread would be very comfrotable in Saudi Arabia. Heck, they might even sign up to be the moral police.

As a Christian I think we fight the wrong battles - it's easy to get worked up into a moral outrage. makes you feel good. The Christin's job isn't to tell the world it is wrong but to show Gospel living and hold the Gospel out.

The NT never gets into the asking the Roman authorities to stop their entertainments because it offends Christians. the message is repent and be saved.

Lastly it should be remembered that it is not up to Ministers (like some smaller version of the Papacy) to dictate what entertainment the flock can and cannot watch, hear, see. Aesthetics are not our business. Rather we should encourage people to be alert to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. I trust God more than I do my own frail judgment.

Please be so good as to point them out to us as they pop up, ok?

I have been here over 5 years and have yet to find any on FR who would "be very comfrotable in Saudi Arabia."

I guarantee you the original poster would. The Taliban burnt or shut down all the theaters when they were running Afghanistan. Even now I don't think they allow women in the ones they reopened.

Anyway, the movie looks pretty funny. 'My two sons, Walker and Texas Ranger' heh
