There will be a new children's movie out in December called the Golden Compass. The movie has been described as "Atheism for Kids" and is based on the firstbook of a trilogy entitled "His Dark Materials" that was written by Phillip Pullman. Pullman is a militant atheist and secular humanist who despises C.S. Lewis and the "Chronicles of Narnia". His motivational for writing this trilogy was specifically to counteract Lewis' symbolism of Christ that are portryaed in the Narnia series.
Claerly, Pullman's main objective is to bash Christianity and promote atheism. Pullman left little doubt about his intentions when he said in a 2003 interview that "my books are about killing God." He has even stated that he wants to "kill God in the minds of children." It has been said of Pullman that he is 'the writer the atheist would be praying for, if atheist prayed."
While "the Golden compass" movie itself may seem mild and innocent, the books are a much different story. in the trilogy, a young streetwise girl becomes enmeshed in an epic struggle to ultimately defeat the oppressive forces of a senile God. Another character, an ex-nun, describes Christianity as " a very powerful and convincing mistake." in the final book, characters representing Adam and Eve eventually kill God, who at times is called YAHWEH. Each book in the trilogy gets progressively worse regarding Pullman's hatred of Jesus Christ.
"The Golden Compass" is set to premier on Dec 7, during the Christmas season (starring Nicole Kidman), and will probabaly be heavily advertised. Promoters hope that unsuspecting parents will take their children to see the movie, that they will enjoy the movie, and that the children will want the books for Christmas.
Please Pass this information along to everone you know. This will help educate parents, so that they will know the agenda of the movie. I am sending this to those of you who have kids or friends with kids, grandkids or have influence with kids. So many things today are darkness concealed in what appears to be innocent. So let us be united as one body with one Head to pray and work together for God's glory...
