That movie is one giant, fallacious, stereotypical Christian joke and not a particularly funny one either. The fact that you found it "very moving" says a lot about you.
Did you see it?

Fundies have to believe that Adam and Eve really were the first humans, that they really committed the "original sin" that got them kicked out of the Garden of Eden, that all subsequent humans inherited this propensity to sin, and that only Jesus can clear us of this sin trait (if only we believe, confess our sins, and repent) and thereby enable us to avoid Hell and go to Heaven.
Without the illness (original sin), there's no need for a cure (Jesus!!!!) and the whole religion falls apart.
But all have sinned. Even before we sinned, it appears that Adam and Eve were enjoying their fellowship with the Creator.

So he floods the world, killing everything, then see that we r up to no good again and Decides to kill someone ( or himself)(however the fuck it goes).. to solve this problem..
Why such anger?

I'm sure no one here is surprised that you found a movie that is full of strawmen arguments and poorly written pseudo-atheists that speak in ways that atheists only speak inside the sheltered minds of Christians.
Seriously, just watching the preview of the movie was enough to that it was just misinformed religious propaganda meant to stir up the faithful and empty their pockets. Christians are nortiously easy to separate from their money, and they drool at thought of pleasing their savior by giving money to the people that produce these movies. The fact that this movie has grossed 35 million just goes to show how eager you all are to induldge yourself in enternainment that reinforces your religious bubble by having no resemblence to realtiy.
I find it interesting how atheists are quick to judge the Bible but few have read it objectively from cover to cover. Christian movies the same. If you really don't want to believe something, Jesus appearing before you may not convince you.
