I did not see the movie, so I can't really comment on whether or not your synopsis if valid or not, but it really a moot point.Sure.
Aronofsy (sp?) is an atheist.
The movies is not about scripture, it is about the horrible humans who pollute mother earth.
All of the bad humans must die to save the earth from pollution, not sin. Extreme environmentalism professes the extirmination of humanity. Commit suicide, save the planet.

The director is not an arbiter for Atheism. The only thing that a all atheist have in common is the lack of belief in god. The label has nothing to do to views of genocide, any particular political views, or agenda.
Aronofsy, the director of the film, may very well have his own agenda, but I think it is a bit irresponsible to lump all Atheist in with a single person.
Maybe what you meant to say is: The director, who happens to be an atheist, is using God's Word to support his extreme environmental agenda, which in reality seeks the extinction of undesirable humans.
Sorry sir, "undersirable humans" were your words not mine. I wrote "bad humans". In today's world, "undesirable humans" actually refers to many individuals, including the unborn, the elderly, the terminally ill, and the poor.ss1088 wrote:Those are your words, but the people of Walmart comes to mind when you ask me.
I wasn't seeing any of "our reviews" on this thread...I was seeing a whole lot of "I will not see this because..." posts.philip964 wrote:http://www.chron.com/entertainment/arti ... 381532.php
Banned in most Muslim countries for showing a prophet. Viewership dropped 65%. I expected more.
Wasn't someone here going to ignore our reviews and see it. We are waiting on the new review.
Has not made a profit yet.

The worst thing about these movies that are supposedly from the Bible, is that there is so much meaning and detail that you don't get unless you are really studying it. We usually think of the popular stories of the Bible as the way we remember learning them as a child, but upon studying them using a study Bible, we see a much bigger view of God's infallible character. I haven't seen the movie, but if imagine Hollywood adding the part of Noah's sons covering his nakedness was simply a way to try and discredit the scriptures and Noah's character. They don't understand the big picture of the meaning and effect this event had. It's important to read the Bible and see the whole picture. As I've been reading through it amazes me how the great men of the Old Testament that we see as righteous struggled with sin then just as we do today, yet God still blessed them and counted them as righteous.philip964 wrote:mamabearCali wrote:
Ok, sorry I there was three more things like the bible. There was plenty of pitch on the wood. Fountains did spring up around the ark. They did send out birds to see if there was land. Ok fourth thing. Noah got drunk and his sons covered his nakedness (Hollywood was not going to pass up on that one)
When I was an atheist, one of the things that struck me about Scripture was its candor. Even the heroes, or especially the heroes, are shown thorns and all. It was also amazing to me how the things I "knew" about the Bible and Christianity as an atheist crumbled simply by reading it.asbandr wrote:<SNIP> They don't understand the big picture of the meaning and effect this event had.
