So every year, my cousins and I go out to see a movie after our family reunion. Bear in mind, my family is crazy religious. This is an excerpt from a rant about "The Golden Compass" on my cousins facebook:
The moive based on the book premiers this month. Both the book and movie introduce atheism to children. The story ends with Adam and Eve killing God. Written by Phillip Pullman. Pullman is a militant atheist and secular humanist. Pullmans main objective is to bash Christianity and promate atheism. Pullman said in a interview in 2003 " my books are about killing God" also stated the he wants "to kill God in the minds of children"
please boycott the movie and books. As Christians God gave us the responsibility to raise our children in the way they should go we are their spiritual eyes.
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
(Ephesians 4:2-3)
Anyway, this is what a group of us want to see, and this is obviously being shunned by the other half of the group.
Does anyone have suggestions on
1. what movie to see that wont piss off/offend anyone/that wont suck
2. how to avoid the religious argument that is sure to spark from this
3. keep us all together and merry on christmas
P.S. I am not saying that this is causing an issue, I am just being cautious and planning a way to avoid it becoming an issue. I personally could care less what movie we see. |

| come out of the closet as either a muslim or an atheist. Their reactions alone will beat any movie |

The best movie about religion I've ever seen is Carl Theodor Dreyer's Ordet (The Word).
If you want to avoid the topic I recommend The Straight Story by David Lynch. I imagine that would be the perfect movie for christmas. |

there's nothing about killing god in the film so you'll be safe
the fact it's ing awful should be the reason not to see it |
