He may get what he wishes here.

Only a fool says in his heart, there is no God.

"It is my goal to go after Christianity. I want God to be dead in my works. I want to undermine Christianity."

I am acquainted with some Albanian Orthodox Christians who grew up under Enver Hoxha's regime, when all religious activity was outlawed and all houses of worship closed. They are some of the most pious, observant and knowledgeable Christians I know, and they got that way while they were still living in Albania and Hoxha was still alive.

Christianity -- and God -- have faced much greater opponents than what's his name and his books and movie.

Poor sap. Part of me hopes his films do well, because unless his spiritual eyes are opened, that’s as good as it will ever get for him.

Pullman has also been quoted as saying: "It is my goal to go after Christianity. I want God to be dead in my works. I want to undermine Christianity."

Badeye, I think you were saying something on a previous thread about how you could possibly judge something without reading it. Here's your answer.

Anti-Christians propaganda will not see a single red cent from me.

He's insane. You can trace a direct line from Darwin to Nietzsche to Nazism to genocide on a scale never seen before. If God is Dead then there is no hope for mankind. And show me the tolerant, enlightened, civilization that is / was atheistic.

Maybe when it comes around onto cable TV I’ll give it a peek. At least I’m not spending any money, and I can change the channel if I don’t like it.

This is what I don't understand about these atheies and aggies. If they are so convinced that they are right and God doesn't exist or you can't ever know that He exists, why do they spend so much of their time so zealously trying to destroy belief in Him? I mean, if it doesn't exist, why bother? Just go about your business and live your life and leave others alone, whether they are mistaken (in your opinion) or not. That they spend so much time trying to tear down others' faith sends a message that they are either don't believe their own message, or they are afraid they are wrong and are desperately trying to convince themselves that they are right by ruining the faith of someone else.

Stuff like this is why I'm glad our side wins in the end.

Matt 18:5-6 “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”

The film is about a 12-year-old girl, Lyra, who hides in a wardrobe.

So it sounds like a parody of Lewis' story The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. But does the Pullman's story have any charm for children other than special effects? I guess the box office will tell.

If this little dude sets out to "kill" God, he'd better pack a big ol' lunch...

Mr. Pullman will be dead in God’s world long before God is dead in his.
