Well I have yet to see a moral government put Disney out of business in this country...
I mean to me shouldn't a Higher Authority padlock these places so to speak. Even when you had the Church making sure films weren't raunchy in the 40's and 50's they were still filthy. In fact I don't even think "For Greater Glory" showed at my theatre. I just choose not to hide from these things, since they are a part of living in modern society. Besides I hear the same exact things at my job by my co-workers, in fact even worse. And yes I can watch those morally degenerate films but I know my views on things will stay the same. And if you are so annoyed by an anonymous poster on a forum that shouldn't even matter much, please go outside and take a run and get away from the computer.

He never said that. He said it was a reminder of all that Christ had to suffer for his sake. What's wrong with that? Lots of things can remind us of His suffering and dying on the Cross for our sakes, and if a movie is one of those things, then that must be a good thing. Just because YOU weren't moved by the movie doesn't mean the rest of us are wrong for being moved to a deep sorrow for our sins from it. Actually, the only negative thing I can say about the movie was that the scenes on the Cross at the end of the movie were far too short. It seemed like they just rushed through the Crucifixion in order to cut the movie down to two hours. It should have been 2h30m at least.

lefebvre fan, read his posts to get his drift. Trad didn't have a problem with that part of my statement. I never said that the Passion was bad either. It just didn't move ME. If you liked it, fine with me.
