Um yes you can when they kill innocent people in the name of God. Crusades, jihad, whatever you wanna call it, it is bullshit.
Although I respect those who apply the morals and virtues of religion I absolutely hate those who are blinded by it, and those who would KILL in the name of God because their religious leader tells them to.
Otherwise I have no problem with religion and God, and I would consider myself somewhat religious, atleast accepting the virtues of my religion, because that helps humanity and the world. But you start pushing it, when you actually believe the Bible to be literally true, or just dismiss the idea of evolution like those parents do in this movie. They teach there kids the wrong stuff purposly. I dont care what your views are, watch this movie!
They have freaking 8 year old kids crying because they think they are sinning for listening to Britney Spears once! Seriously wtf is that. Do you all think a child at the age of 8 has the capacity to even understand what a sin is? This is called brainwashing. Sure teach a child about religion, that is a responsibility as a parent, but isnt it your responsibility to teach your child to be critical and challenge others around him/her? Why not teach evolution, or the claim that there is no God, and from that your child might develop his or her own unique view.
When I have kids I will pass down religion and values, but I will also show them the other side, because that only makes them stronger. You cant sheild and baby kids forever, and I do not want a brainwashed kid. That is the worst, because that kinda mind will take you nowhere in this world.
