Look, just because I have strong beliefs, doesn't mean Im a troll.



I was watching this film the other day, and it really struck me how committed and brave this young couple is. It is not everyday that Hollywood sends a Pro marriage message.



This is a bout a couple who resist divorce. Part of the reason I believe why divorces are so high, is that so many people dont have strong morals, and have values and role models that come from MTV, "Sex in the City" and "Entourage" among other places.



So many young people have the ideas influenced by the sexual revolution which are destructive.

so start ONE christian movie thread. or ONE Kurt Cameron thread, and post in there. We don't need a new thread every time you want to sell us on something.

There's a reason why the bible belt visits porn sites more than anyplace else in America.... fundamentalists are the biggest hypocrites anywhere.... the psychotic delusions that accompany Christian fundamentalism --when put into film-- are so incredibly awful that they tend to have the opposite affect... kind of like what happens when one actually reads the bible.... they tend to become Atheists

Kirk Cameron needs psychiatric help.... This movie reminds me of Ted Haggard bragging about how great Christian marital sex was.... before he was blowing his meth dealer...

Lol, source please? Pornography is a struggle for quite a bit of people, but some find prayer helpful in overcoming that.

In all seriousness, while I liked the films message, I thought the film was very poorly executed. It was also quite patronizing to the female, "little wife" character. The film did not depict a fighting couple, cooperating together to try and overcome their relationship issues.

Instead it was Kirk Cameron being a brave "manly man" and making darned sure his wife knows he is nice to her, while she, basically does nothing. By placing the burden on the husband to save the marriage, its somewhat demeaning to and patronizing of the wife, saying she is just this poor,silly little creature, who is too frazzled to have a mature/meaningful conversations about their problems. Not a great message overall.
