This post isn't about any movie.

A Christian lady I know recommended Will Smith's [I]Hitch[/I] as a good movie. Not knowing anything about the movie, I rented it. Not until I watched it did I learn it is a romantic comedy in which Smith plays a Love Doctor who tries to get couples together.

The movie has at least a half-dozen homosexual characters. There was the homosexual couple at a party. The homosexual doorman who wanted Smith to help him get a man. There was the black coworker of the hispanic woman who pretended to be heterosexual to entrap Smith. The was the good friend of a rich lady who one man thought for a moment would be a competitor to winning the love of the rich lady. [B]Their homosexuality is never mocked for comedic effect.[/B]

There are at least a couple of homosexual elements involving heterosexual characters. There is lip contact between the two primary men as one (Smith) is trying to teach the other how to kiss a woman. There is also a scene where the other man is mistaken for being a homosexual when he is just trying to be friendly to another man.

After I watch movies, I like to read reviews about them. On a hunch, I decided to stick to movie reviews on Christian websites. These Christian reviews like to report anything offensive, even down to counting the profanities.

First, I went to [URL=http://christiananswers.net/spotlight/movies/2005/hitch2005.html]ChristianAnswers[/URL]. The official review had not a word about the homosexual content of the movie. Out of nearly two dozen "Christian" viewer comments following the review, only one person had any objection to the homosexual content of the movie, and that was very mild and only mentioned the "gay" couple at the party.

Next I went to [URL=http://www.crosswalk.com/fun/movies/1312275.html]CrossWalk[/URL]. Here again, not a mention of homosexuality. Finally I went to [URL=http://www.pluggedinonline.com/movies/movies/a0002055.cfm]PluggedInOnline[/URL]. This review did mention Smith's kiss and the man mistaken as being "gay" and the "gay" doorman. Still, the reviewer failed to report most of the homosexual characters and did not mention anything about the agenda of using homosexuals as regular people to accustom the public to think of homosexuals as regular people. All the immoral acts and mocking was saved for the heterosexual characters.

Have mainstream "Christians" come so far from Christianity that even a movie laced with homosexuality doesn't draw any objection from them? If you follow the links and read the reviews, you see that the insipid non-Christian "Christians" are objecting to content such as a bit of cleavage, smoking in the background, a few sips of liquor, a guy (Smith) falling off a car (uninjured, but still violence), and of course, the potty words.

I won't even get into the issue of interracial dating in the movie.

[/QUOTE]LOL. that is funny in a pathetic way. Smoking, and a few sips of beer draw criticisms. How sinful! But the "abomination", that is called homsexuality that is perfectly acceptable. On the other hand if there would have been any mention of the homosexual content, then they would be intolerant homophobes.

Happy Hacker,

One would think one could a better review than that on those sites. It did not look like anything worth seeing from the TV ads I saw for it.

And on a related note:

Christianity is coming full circle back to what it was, before the Roman ruling caste made the catholic church which took into it many of the Heathen/European tradition. Each race will recreate at frist a alien religion in it's own genetic character. Despite the universal taint of christianity, but then are consumed by the taint themselves in the end.

Are you really saying that the Roman ruling caste taught early Christians to detest sodomy and not vice versa?

I didn't see Hitch. It looks like one of those silly movies where a cool, wise negro teaches a stupid white man how to "live." For me, that is reason #1 to give this piece of trash a miss. Plus, I can't stand negro Smith.

So-called Judeo-Christians don't denounce homosexualism for the simple reason that they no longer consider homosexualism a sin. In the new moral paradigm, condemnation is reserved for those who are "intolerant," "bigoted," "insensitive," etc., vis-a-vis the prevailing culture. In other words, there's nothing wrong with being a faggot, but there is something horribly evil about disapproving of faggots. You'll see the same mentality at work when it comes to interracial relationships, non-whites, & Jews.

At any rate, I wouldn't worry too much about modern Judeo-Christians. Most of them, I would say, are firmly in the camp of the enemy, whether or not they are willing to admit it.
