Unfortunately I saw it, wish I had read this first.

The good thing is that people were walking out.

It was unbelievably sad, in many ways.

To: roses of sharon
My buddy at work last night was mentioning this movie and asked if I had heard about it. I said no, and he told me that his wife (he and his wife are born again Christian and very devout) went with one of her friends on the weekend to see it. He said that she walked out because she found it highly offensive. When she got home she refused to talk about it, only saying that she regretted going to it at all. He and I were wondering what that was all about. I forgot about it till just now when I saw the posting hear. It's ashame that Hollywood nowadays has to hoodwink people into the theaters instead of just being upfront.

On Sunday night, I watched the president give his speech on Fox. I've never had cable T.V., just the garbage that's on the airwaves. For about the past six months, with the sole exception of DVD movies, I have not even watched T.V. After the speech, I left the T.V. on and "Family Guy" the cartoon suddenly came on next. I thought I would watch it, as I used to find it pretty funny. Within TWO OR THREE MINUTES I counted about four or five insults about Christians. Click, the T.V. went off. I cannot even get two or three minutes without being slammed or insulted. I guess the T.V. will remain off for a while.

In a way, perhaps it's a good thing. I've been doing more reading, and I think that's a much more worthwhile past time anyway.

I hope you were able to get a refund on the admission to the movie.
