Ok so i'm sure you've all heard of The golden Compass[Idk why you shouldn't if you didn't becausethey've been advetsing it like hell.].
And some beleivers are boycotting this movie because they think it sells kids to Atheism.
So my question is, from what you've seen in the previews, do you think that this movie does sell atheism to kids.

From what i've seen, no.
I mean I don't really no the story or anything but it doesn't look so bad to me. IT looks like a fantasy, kind of like narnia but you know, written by an atheist.

So what do you think?

I don't see how it was Aethist.

I'm a Christian, and I had no quarrels when I watched it.

It was a bad movie none the less, I wouldn't waste money to watch it.

Go for Hitman 47 instead.
