Christian Sisters' Message and Prayer Request Board
Welcome to the Christian Sisters' Message Board. It is an enjoyable way to encourage and communicate with one another. Please tell your friends about the board and about http://www.christianmirror.com.
The following are quotes from Pullman (the author). Everytime I read anything about this movie and these books, I get so angry.
Such venom isn't the exception when it comes to Pullman's stance on all things Christian. He told the U.K.'s Daily Telegraph, "Atheism suggests a degree of certainty that I'm not quite willing to accede. I suppose technically, you'd have to put me down as an agnostic. But if there is a God, and he is as the Christians describe him, then he deserves to be put down and rebelled against. As you look back over the history of the Christian church, it's a record of terrible infamy and cruelty and persecution and tyranny. How they have the bloody nerve to go on Thought for the Day and tell us all to be good when, given the slightest chance, they'd be hanging the rest of us and flogging the homosexuals and persecuting the witches."
Pullman has said unambiguously, "My books are about killing God."
"[English poet William] Blake said that Milton was a true poet and of the Devil's party without knowing it," Pullman has said. "I am of the Devil's party and know it."
"I wanted to reach everyone," he says, "and the best way I could hope to do that was to write for children." Pullman's strategy for inculcating his beliefs involves planting these bad seeds in the minds of those who may not have the discernment to understand what he's doing.
This man is delighting in his role as assistant devil, although he probably doesn't believe in Satan, either. And, of course, the media is gleefully eating it up, because in many cases it's what they do but are afraid to come right out and say so.
These people need Christ so badly. Let's remember to pray for our enemies (and our Savior's enemies) as well as those we love.
My kids want to see this. After seeing the comercials and the trailers, I want to see this. But of course we won't. My kids were horrified to know the truth. I'm just glad it is all out in the open for people to make a choice instead of seeing the movie and not realizing what is behind it.
