the golden compass

this is an excerpt from an email i received from my mother....


There will be a new children's movie out in December called "The Golden Compass." The movie has been described as "atheism for kids" and is based on the first
book of a trilogy entitled "His Dark Materials" written by Phillip Pullman.
Pullman is a militant atheist and secular humanist who despises C. S. Lewis and the "Chronicles of Narnia.." His motivation for writing this trilogy was specifically to counteract Lewis' symbolisms of Christ portrayed in the Narnia series.

Clearly, Pullman 's main objective is to bash Christianity and promote
atheism. Pullman left little doubt about his intentions when he said in a
2003 interview, "my books are about killing God." He has even stated that he
wants "to kill God in the minds of children." It has been said of Pullman
that he is "the writer the atheists would be praying for, if atheists
prayed"

While "The Golden Compass" movie itself may seem mild and innocent, the
books are a much different story. In the trilogy, a young streetwise girl
becomes enmeshed in an epic struggle to ultimately defeat the oppressive
forces of a senile God. Another character, an ex-nun, describes Christianity
as "a very powerful and convincing mistake." In the final book, characters
representing Adam and Eve eventually kill God, who at times is called
YAHWEH. Each book in the trilogy gets progressively worse regarding
Pullman 's hatred of Jesus Christ.

"The Golden Compass" is set to premier December 7, during the Christmas
season and will probably be heavily advertised. Promoters hope that
unsuspecting parents will take their children to see the movie, that they
will enjoy the movie, and that the children will want the books for
Christmas. Please boycott the movie and the books. Also, pass this
information along to everyone you know. This will help to educate parents,
so that they will know the agenda of the movie.

now.... i don't have near enough time to go into a theological rant about how certain people in our world are going to hell....
