well... there’s nothing in the bible that would command the hero of the movie to act the way he did (not be alone with any strange woman under any circumstance for any reason), but it is a device that creates a drama. sometimes we pile things on the bible and then it is that which the secular world hates.

“Flee sexual temptation.”

“Don’t give the appearance of evil.”

I’ve heard many Christian men say that the best way to avoid falling into temptation is to keep away from it.

“Flee sexual immorality,” it should have read.

A few generations ago, it wouldn’t have been unusual at all for people to refuse to be alone with members of the opposite sex—the name of the movie is Old-Fashioned, after all. Lol

As for the hate of the world—it doesn’t take anything beyond the Word. The world hates God and anything to do with Him, his Son, or His people.
