How come when I say, it's a BOOK, B-O-O-K, I don't get the same reaction?? :-)
Probably because George Lucas isn't anyone with eternal damnation.
As far as I know, anyway.
Possibly because most people prefer Christianity over Atheism....
That depends on which book. Just because it's bound with a cover and has pages inside doesn't mean that its content is a) fictitious and b) harmless.
Some books, like this movie, are entirely without basis in fact. Others deal with more dangerous realities.
When George Lucas gets nailed to a board, gets a stake shoved through his heart, and then walks out of his own grave, he gets to start his own religion, too.
It's a fair test...

Good point: no one has ever been burnt to death for disbelieving in the Jedi religion. Not yet anyway! :-)
I don't believe the Bible was written as pure entertainment as the Star Wars saga was. Of course I could be wrong.
Because the M-O-V-I-E was written by people who's sole purpose was to seperate you from your money, and risked a little of there own to do so.
The people who wrote the B-O-O-K did so with the sole purpose of helping you attain something much more valuable than money, and did so at the sacrifice of their own lives.
Don't confuse those who WROTE the book, with some who may have USED the book for other purposes.
Unfortunately, many people's beliefs and knowledge of the B-O-O-K, is mostly what they have been taught by those who write M-O-V-I-E-S.
