Hollywood has once again produced another bigoted movie that mocks the
Christian faith. Hopefully, Christians will wake up and finally get the picture
that by attending Hollywood movies, they are only supporting and
encouraging Hollywood to produce more of the same:

New film mocks Christianity
by WorldNetDaily.com
A noted movie critic says the new film "Saved!" is a sad, bigoted, anti-
Christian movie that mocks the Christian faith.
Ted Baehr, the founder of the Christian Film & Television Commissionâ„¢
ministry has come out swinging against the MGM movie, according to
Assist News Service. The film was released May 28.
"'SAVED!' is a hateful, politically correct movie," Baehr declared. "It is
being heavily marketed to the community it mocks to lead Christian youth
astray and make them resent their own faith."
The movie, which stars Mandy Moore and Macaulay Culkin, tells the story
about self-righteous Christian youths in an uptight Christian school. Baehr
urges religious leaders, including Jews and Muslms, to warn their
constituents about the movie.
"The one character who tries to preach the Gospel in the movie is actually
the villain," Baehr noted. "The heroine Mary, played by Jena Malone, has a
vision that Jesus tells her to fornicate with the school hunk in order to save
him from homosexuality. At the end, Mary learns that her only true friends
are Cassandra, an irreverent Jewish girl who claims to have been a stripper,
and the villain's brother, who denies being a Christian and lusts after the
stripper."
The movie's website includes phrases alternately shown on the homepage,
including: "Got passion? Get Saved! 5:28," a Scripture-like reference to the
film's release date. Other phrases are "Let's kick it Jesus style," and "Prayer
works, it's been medically proven."
Baehr added: "Cassandra is the real heroine who turns Mary away from the
uptight Christian students who believe in faith, values and the power of
prayer. Imagine if this movie were set in an Orthodox Jewish school with
faithful Jewish children cast as the villains and a Christian girl shows how
legalistic the Jewish girls are. Or, what if it were set in an Islamic school
with faithful Muslims cast as the villains and a Christian or Jewish girl
exposes how legalistic the Muslims are? The outcry in the press would be
tremendous! Not to mention the righteous outcry from Jews or Muslims!
"Looking at it from the point of view of other faiths highlights how bigoted
the movie 'SAVED!' is and reveals how MGM is marketing it to Christian
children to try to divorce them from their faith!"
Brief audio snippets from the film featured on the website include one
female character angrily shouting at another: "I'm filled with Christ's love!"

Take a look at most of the movies today:
Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers,
Rom 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors
of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural
affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit
such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in
them that do them.
