I can't wait to see The End of the Spear. It's a fascinating story, regardless of an actor's off-screen life.

As for protesting Chad Allen, this author better be consistent. He must never, ever see a Christian film that features actors who drink too much, have premarital or extramarital sex, lie, steal, or cheat on their taxes. In other words, he must never, ever see another "Christian film" again.

You are missing the point. If an actor is activily using his role in a movie as a platform to normalize drinking, premarital sex, lying, cheating on taxes within the Christian church then this would be cause for concern. Plus we are talking about an actor in a Christian movie.

Chad Allen is the poster boy of the gay activist movement to normalize homosexuality in our society.

As for 'End of the Spear', there are two issues that bother me.

Number one, what self-respecting Christian father would risk depriving his children of one the two most prized posessions of their youth? If this aspect of the movie is supposed to impress me of Christian values, it will fail miserably.

Number two, this movie is going to play right into the hands of the left who will champion it's message for their twisted purposes. It's their claim already that we should not stike out against terrorists as this multiplies terrorism, their claim not mine.

To fail to strike out against terrorists would be suicide. None the less the Steven Spielbergs of the world think movies like Munich tell us what we should know.

The end of 'End of the Spear' may be worth the journey. I do see some glaring problems with the flick.

That's quite a stretch. A reasonable person could see the difference between a person who sins and a person that promotes sinning. We're all sinners, but we don't all brag about our defects like it's God who's wrong.
