Ive also heard some Christian leaders endorse this steaming pile of heretical horse manure. Im tempted to accuse them of being cowardly, dumb, or dishonest, but Ill just give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they slept through the most troubling parts -- like the part at the beginning, and the end, and all of the parts in between. Its true that it might be a bit difficult to discern the message in a film so filled with explosions (the Bad Guys have bazookas, naturally), monsters, and infanticide, but any supposed Christian leader ought to try a little harder. Pay attention a little closer. If you do, youll see a tale that entirely perverts the nature of God, while flipping sin and immorality on its head. Aside from a brief glimpse of something that appeared to be either rape or cannibalism, wickedness is portrayed as mostly a matter of eating meat and mining the earth for resources. Noah -- a righteous man in the Bible -- is stripped of his righteousness in favor of obsessiveness. God is stripped of any characteristics at all, apart from vindictiveness. Its not that Noah strays from the text -- of course it does, the actual text is only a few pages long -- its that the movie completely and utterly distorts the message and meaning of the original story. This movie is not an adaptation of anything at all. As far as I can tell, both Noah the Movie and Noah the Bible story have in common: a guy named Noah, a boat, some animals. Matt Walsh
