I don't know if this has been posted on DU as my computer has been down for 2 days. This came via e-mail today -

'A Movie To Avoid'

"I did check this out on snopes. I hadn't heard any press about this movie - on snopes it is certainly disturbing. I'm not mentioning it to my kids - I want to see what / when they hear about it.

“We need to get the word out about this movie - Nicole Kidman stars in it. It is coming out in December - an atheist produced it and it is marketed for children. Based on a trilogy of books - at the end of the third book, they kill God.

“Send this to everyone you know.”

1. I think you may be conflating neocons and the religiously insane

The neocons could care less about god. Not to say necons, as individuals, don't care about god, but religion isn't a significant part of necon-ism.

7. It's common to conflate your political enemies.

Liberals often believe the religious right are neocons and vice versa, just as right-wingers often believe that environmentalists and socialists and terrorists are all the same thing.

2. but neocons use the religious for their nepharious porposes and other

fishy tails.

the same can't be said for the religious right.

4. I love communication, and think of the ability to do so as a religion!

Does that make me a neocoM?;)

5. A terrorist, by far. Neocons aren't particularly religious. nt

10. They're likely not actual neocons,

but rather simple Republicans.
