Rob Reiner’s ‘God & Country: The Rise Of Christian Nationalism’ has concluded its theatrical run and to the surprise of all progressives and no conservatives, it absolutely bombed, bringing in a mere $38,415 over an extended four-day weekend, and $60,464 in the seven days it was in theaters.
The film opened in 85 theaters, averaging $451 a theater over four days, which is incredibly low. Assuming it had at least one showing each day (and likely it had several), it brought in around 112 dollars a day, or ten people a day spread across however many showings.
In comparison, John MacArthur’s The Essential Church made over $412,000 during its run and Greg Locke’s film about deliverance ministers and demons made over $2.5M.
We’ve written before about the film, featuring the who’s who of bad faith liberals, such as Jemar Tisby, David French, Kristin Kobes Du Mez, Phil Vischer, Skye Jethani, William Barber, Russell Moore, and which alleges that politically active conservative Christians (all lumped together under the label “Christian Nationalism”) don’t understand True Christianity and have let politics subsume their faith.
The truth however if you take a look at who is delivering this message, it becomes clear this is a case of DARVO (an acronym for “deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender”).
To a person, the film’s talking heads all display eye-socket logs of theological compromise in service of politics. In this series of articles, we showed how “experts” of “God And Country” are either firmly outside Christianity in theology and practice or deeply compromised on basic Christian ethics. Two examples of the former:
Meet ‘God + Country’ Talking Head Simone Campbell: A Queer-Affirming Zen Mystic Who Denies Jesus’s Miracles Meet “God + Country” Talking Head Anthea Butler: Christian In Name Only, Quite Literally
Despite these folks shilling for their terrible movie, no one cared about it it, which is great because it had nothing valuable to say.
Reiner demonizes Christians who vote for Trump. Rural rage is more of the same. Before that deplorables and bitter clingers. Obama began the tactic of treating the opposition like sub humans. It gives the left an unwarranted sense of superiority. Ya know, like the master race.
Can’t find the cost on this turd. If it was $59k, totally worth it.
‘Think he’ll learn?’ Rob Reiner’s Christian-bashing documentary ‘God & Country’ a box office disaster
He is the meathead.
Watch out. The Democrats might try to install Rob as the new Treasury Secretary.
Meatheads gotta be meatheads.
Because fascist, racist and xenophobe have lost their potency.
He ain’t his daddy when it comes to producing films. Not even his fellow leftards were interested.
Almost as unpopular as Jlo’s latest album.
Let’s accurately depict the so-called ‘Christian Nationalist’. They’re definitely not the pre-WW2 Nazi Socialists of Germany who were propagandized to despise and blame Jews. The Americans of true Christian faith want a normal nation based on Judaeo-Christian principles and a limited, less intrusive government that adheres to its Constitutional principles. A nation with a strong military, responsible leaders and a love for God and hatred of evil and its perversions. A nation that has a vast amount of these like minded citizens would be blessed indeed.
F U meathead
bttt
If only this guy knew how wrong he is about just about everything. The only way he could come to his conclusions is if underlying it all he is prejudiced against Christians and he carries the incredibly stupid, elitist, and misinformed view that all wisdom and intelligence is concentrated in college educated urban dwellers.
I know many people like this, and they are blind to their own prejudices, elitism, and ignorance.

He is talented and capable, but his heart has hardened and a dark soul seeks others in misery (Russell Moor, Phil V, others).
