Oh god. I remember when that movie came out. I was still a fundie then. Everyone pushed me to see it. I told them that the last thing I wanted to see was some guy get the crap beat out of him. It mattered not that this guy was (at the time) my lord and savior. I didn't want to sit through all that. Some people looked at me like I was weird, others thought I was less of a Christian.
When that horrible book "The Shack" came out I didn't join that bandwagon either even though my Sunday School class studied it for several months.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
