...saw the first of the previews on this the other night, and I was a little worried.

It really, really, really is aimed at children. How many kids out there are going to be begging Mommy and Daddy to take them to see this movie this year? It's disturbing.

There's going to be video games, trading cards, toys, spin-off books, coloring books. Paper party plates, party napkins, Valentine's cards. Candy.

Kids' minds are like playdough. Whatever you push into it, that dough is going to dry out later on leaving a permanent impression.

These kids will get the impression that it's cool to kill God.

Keep praying, guys! This world is spinning way out of control...

I saw an intrview with George Clooney last night. He said he was tired of hearing all that Jesus is always right stuff. This must be Hollywood's attempt at expressing that.

God is still on the throne!

We should not be surprised at movies like this. There will be even more in the near future.

All we need to do is to be more active as christians. The missionfields are not thousands of miles away, but right on our doorsteps, in the classrooms, on the playing fields, in our workplaces.

The world is quickly forgetting God and seeking its own desires, but make no mistake God will not be forgotten. The gift of Jesus Christ will not be wasted on this generation. Satans plans are no match for the awesome power of God and His Church.

We need to pray and seek Gods will in this generation. We need to be ready to do His will. Amazing things can happen when the Holy Spirit moves.

Stay strong in faith and be vigilent for oportunities. God is not finished yet!

While I am sadened by this pervasive anti-christ spirit that comes from Hollywood I am never surprised by that God hating crowd.
They build their lives around earhtly wealth and fame, on the surface they have it all. In truth they are empty and miserable.

What saddens me, is that the world accepts and approves of what they are doing.

Watch all the awards this movie will collect. The world will praise the movie and put it in the collectors pile.

Sadder still is the way lost sheep equate movies with reality. I cannot count the wisemen who told me they knew just what happened to JFK the next week after a movie came out.

Do people know what it stands for? My friend brought some DVDs by last night and we started to watch them. I was making popcorn and the previews for this movie came on, so I went in and grabbed the remote and pushed NEXT. "Not in my house!" I told my friend.

He asked me what was up, and I told him. He had no clue.

Most would not know what it was about. That would include me if I had not read about it here.
