Have you read the books or are familiar with the His Dark Materials trilogy or the author? Redacted, or Lions for Lambs don't bother me so much because they are movies targeted towards adults. Same with Farenheit 9/11. If this were a movie trying to teach the values of atheism and how Christianity were evil in a mature adult context, I wouldn't care either. But it's a children's movie. I'm not a Christian either!

A book series that aims to indoctrinate kids into thinking physical pleasures of the flesh are more important than spirituality, that the Christian religion is a fraud, that homosexual angels are the 'good guys', etc... is not something I have any interest in my children seeing.

I also think its of value to inform our other FRiends who may have children who think the movie is another Narnia, or Harry Potter, that it's not what they think it is.

You have a problem with any of that? :-)

No, I don't read fiction. I also don't feel I can properly inform people about books and movies I haven't read or seen.

Then don't take them to see it.
