FortuneCookie 03/14/23 9:30:38 PM #22:	Preface, I'm a Christian. Some people unfortunately make no distinction between "Christian" and "conservative," "bigot," "Trump supporter," etc. Even taking that association out of the equation, there are those who feel that the world should see things as they do. If science lessons won't make an atheist out of a person, perhaps ridicule or vilification will shame them into seeing the light. To say that there is a universal Hollywood agenda against Christianity is overreaching. Some studios will allow pro-Christian content in one movie or show and anti-Christian content in another. Some studios like to secularize as much as possible to reach a maximum audience without worrying about the divisiveness of religion. And others may earnestly have a producer or two with a stick up their butt when it comes to the subject of religion. Or Christianity in particular. I couldn't say definitively that HBO has any sort of agenda against Christianity. But they have borrowed from multiple anti-Christian works (His Dark Materials, The Plot Against America), platformed antireligious individuals (Bill Maher), and haven't offered a counterargument or platform to the other side that I've seen. Though not promoted, they do have some religious films available for viewing in their HBO Max library. <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:972178135] in Rainn Wils...

FortuneCookie 03/14/23 9:31:37 PM #23:	I haven't actually seen HBO's Plot Against America, but I have read the book in college. There is one page in particular where the protagonist looks at the image of Christ on a church and blames him for the rise of antisemitism in Germany and America. It's meant to be from the innocent perspective of a young Jewish boy facing persecution after Nazi sympathizer Charles Lindbergh becomes President of the United States, but the author's disdain seemed evident to me. It also came out of left field considering that, for a political novel about Republicans electing a Nazi, the book absolutely bent over backwards to avoid vilifying Republicans as a party. I wouldn't be surprised if HBO kept the scene in question. I wouldn't be surprised if they left it out. I certainly don't imagine the series works quite as hard to be evenhanded on the political front as the novel did. <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:972178151] in Rainn Wils...

Tom_Joad 03/15/23 7:09:13 AM #38:	Proselytizing religions are inherently harmful to people. For they, by definition, dismiss a person's current beliefs as wrong and immoral. Then demand the person change their beliefs or be damned for their refusal. And in most cases, ensure unequal treatment under law against those that do hold onto their original beliefs. In some cases, that means state-sponsored torture and death. --- "History shows again and again that nature points out the folly of man. Go go Godzilla!"

So you think that they can continue to push their gay hate, trans hate, and should be left entirely alone for exactly what they are bitching about other people doing right back to them?

cuttin_in_farm 03/15/23 7:55:21 AM #50:	[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yea. Imagine if that were true! MabusIncarnate posted... So you think that they can continue to push their gay hate, trans hate, and should be left entirely alone for exactly what they are bitching about other people doing right back to them? Okay, Gotta love that mentality lol. You seem upset at someone. Dunno who, but I hope you find them. However, please keep in mind that doing blanket generalizations never makes you logical nor on the moral high ground. Not all Christians are homophobic. And honestly, it always bugs me how much folks hate Christianity but will turn around and claim to support minorities, namely black people. I wonder what religion a large portion of Americas black population follows But continue being angry at Christians. I guess. --- A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm. <cite>cuttin_in_farm posted [p:972184145] in Rainn Wils...
