As you may know...

The christians are all fussing about the newest adventure movie hitting theaters everywhere in a few weeks...yep, you guessed it...the golden compass.

But I find it extremely interesting that none of them realize that by stirring up trouble, they made me so interested that I went out and got the book, and fully intend on seeing the movie, to see what all the fuss is about. Originally, I didn't really have any intention of seeing the movie...thought it looked a bit cheesy (even thought Daniel Craig is in it) but now that all the religious fanatics are buzzing around trying to get me NOT to see it, all I want to do is be the first one in line at the ticket counter.

And what I really love about them all is that they are so closed minded in their religious beliefs, that they cant take a simple work of FICTION as just that...fiction. If your belief in the immortal god is so strong, why would you be bothered by some little kids killing a fictional MORTAL god, who seems (according to your definition) not to fit into your description of who god really is...


just a thought.



So I'm off to start reading...hope it's as good as they say it is...
