Description:

"THE GOLDEN COMPASS, a new movie targeted at children, will be releasedDecember 7, 2007. This movie is based on a the first book of a trilogyby atheist Philip Pullman. In the final book a boy and girl kill God so they can do as they please. Pullman left little doubt about his intentions when he said in a 2003 interview that "My books are about killing God."The movie is a watered down version of the first book and is designedt o be very attractive in the hope unsuspecting parents will take their children to see the the movie and that the children will want thebooks for Christmas.The movie has a well known cast, including Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig,and Sam Elliott. It will probably be advertised extensively, so it iscrucial that we get the word out to warn people to avoid this movie."

I can't believe this rubbish. It makes me really angry that people think one of my favorite stories of all time is evil. Certainly, it can challenge something you strongly beleive in, but isn't that a good thing? If your faith is strong enough, adversity will only make it stronger. I should really hope that a story about a girl, witches, talking polar bears, magic, etc. wouldn't sway anyone.
