It’s strange seeing the number of Freepers who see nothing wrong with the popular media disparaging Christianity.
It’s as if they’ve surrendered, like the battle was too much and they adopted the attitude of “Oh well, so they slur God and Christians...that doesn’t bother me any,” rather than fighting for our common culture and beliefs, which were, to this point at least, Christian.
As for me, I wouldn’t go see The Golden Compass, whose author is a virulent anti-Christian, if they gave me $1,000.00.

You know, there is nothing I admire about Islam.
Except that their people have the courage and passion to protect their faith. I dont agree with their methods but it would be nice if some Christians developed courage and protected what they believe.
It doesn't bother me. No movie, book or TV show can affect my faith. I'm not that weak. God is not that weak, either.
God is God. God does not require that I protect Him against slurs. I would be an idiot if I thought I could protect God. If I could, God wouldn't be what He is. He does not need my help.
The gods of some faiths are weak and human-like, needing constant defense. People following those gods spend their entire lives overwrought, threatening to kill everyone who insults their god.
Christians should take care not to be those people, removing divinity from God and replacing Him with an insecure shadow of what He is.
