The studio and the director made a liberal, leftist, ‘green’, global warming and enviro-whacko PROPAGANDA HIT PIECE against the foundations of Christianity and the Bible — and instead, sneaking in their enviro-whacko IDEOLOGY as the basis of the movie!
Dennis Prager, in the following Freeper posting, explains what is going on, in our culture. This movie NOAH is a prime example of how that works.

“...Instead of hearing an audible voice, Noah mostly receives his instructions via dreams and visions ... than it would have been had there been an audible voice....”
Why do I hear Bill Cosby’s voice in my head saying “Noah! How Long Can You Tread Water?
Yes, what manner of spirits—demonic spirits.
God’s word accurately documents Noah. We discover from the Bible that the flood/ark event represents God’s miraculous provision in Jesus Christ, who will return and save and judge the earth when he ushers in his millennial kingdom. Those who would escape judgement have but to enter in through the door, through faith. (The atheistic and unbelieving left perverts marriage, and everything it touches.)
Changing the Noah account strips it of its power. Those who do this walk a very precarious path on the edge of the abyss. For many they are reprobate, beyond reaching.
“Spirituality”= hipsters trying to sound less shallow than they actually are.
I saw it on Saturday. Some observations.
1. It pretty much preserved the themes of judgement, mercy, and redemption, but got there by a pretty twisted path.
2. Visually the giant rock monsters look like they were a combination of the transformers and the Ents from Lord of the Rings.
3. They poked in a lot of stuff that is not in the Biblical account for the sake of creating dramatic conflict. It’s a movie so I understand what they did and in terms of telling an interesting story it works.
4. This is not Moses’ story. If that bothers you, I wouldn’t go see it. (If you are relying on Hollywood movies for spiritual edification you should probably reassess your strategy.)
“Spirituality” is rejecting how God defines Himself, and making up your own definition... idolatry.
Is there any connection between this Noah movie and the other Christian movie “Son of God”? Just seems weird they were released around the same time, when the last Hollywood Christian movie was what Passion of the Christ?
Some scholars have calculated that Methuselah died the year of the flood.
But, you are right, it is fiction ... and I knew that when I watched it. That does not mean there is nothing to be gleaned there.
Albert Camus — ‘Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.’ .
When I saw the rock monsters, I thought of this scene, too, Sloth.
I’ll agree with that, and the real idol is usually the image staring back from the mirror.
That’s one of the greatest deceptions ever - that you are serving yourself in your rebellion. When in actuality, you’re serving Satan when you think you’re serving yourself.
Amen.
Im fairly certain that there are levels of reward in heaven...and another sort of set levels of reward in hell
Im going to GUESS that the filmaker is going to be treated to the best....hell has to offer...
“My take is that Christians should see this film as doing more good than bad.”
Yeah, that is the foolish thinking that led me to check it out this past weekend.
This movie is to the Biblical story of Noah what The Last Temptation of Christ was to the Biblical Passion narrative.
This is no conversation starter for Biblical discussion. It would take several hours just to address the anti-Biblical aspects of the movie. It is no better than using the fact Jesus name is taken in vain so often in the movies, and making that the basis to bring up Christ to a movie patron.
Please don’t make the mistake I made and support this despicable Hollywood perversion.
No thanks. It takes more than the 51/49 good to bad ratio to make a movie worthwhile. From what I have read of it, it appears to be little more than a Greenpeace/Vegan/PETA view of the story.
Not a dime to Hollywood. It is a sin to support the ungodly who use every opportunity to mock the Almighty and His Holy Word.
Asking Christians to enrich Hollywood has to be a sin
Can you believe it?! There are actually some Freepers supporting this liberal, leftist, ‘green’ and enviro-whacko IDEOLOGY that is in this film and actually “paying” the studio that produced it, so that they can keep distributing the very IDEOLOGY that Free Republic opposes! Amazing ...
