She clearly hasn't actually read the Noah story in the bible itself.

It's worth it.

But "god" is barely a character. I think there is enough doubt in the film as to what "god" actually is. Certainly there is no voice of god, only interpretations of what characters think god might mean. But whatever the "creator" is, he's a dick. And so is Noah. Though, and I would expect that this is what really pisses off the religious, the end kind of gets to "you need to make your own decisions." Which totally isn't what the religious want to see.

confirmation of their hope that the unrighteous and heathenesque will be smitten (smited? smote?), and that they, the true believers, will get to watch, gleefully and with satisfaction. Ignoring, of course, that in the literal story they so ardently cling to, only 8 folks in the whole world passed god's muster, so their chances of being inside the boat instead of outside next time ain't that great.

that in the bible god tends to only spare a few.
and when he does save a massive amount of people like the Jews from slavery, he royally screws them over for years in the desert.

I wish they would make a movie about job, only depict god as the head a casino running numbers on the good people of earth. and when they get to the part where a house collapses on Job's Children they should do it in slow motion and carefully film how all 10 children died by slowly by being crushed by a building.

And then reshoot the painful process of his wife going through labor 10 more freaking times, in a tent in the desert, all so god could win a bet

It was called "A Serious Man" and was quite good, in that weird, dark Coen way.

Didn't do so well, either. Be careful what you wish for, fundies...

how most people who actually hear from god are alone, on a mountain, in the woods, or in a field.

I think they don't like seeing the words written in the bible come to life. god killed every man women and child in the entire earth except for Noah and family, according to the flood story.
they is no way they can make that god look loving, that is what eats at them.

CONTEXT

Then I realized it was my alarm clock radio and I had to drag my ass out of bed to do the good work of keeping the books for some idiot boss.

I was disappointed.

Babylonian Gods than the OT one.

gospel."

Mmmmm baby! I'm excited now! Just when it was looking like summer would be , well, kind of balmy and nice.

....suck worse than"Noah"!

I mean, this is the summer of the poor put upon believer! Yawn.

Isn't that the pat answer from the uber-religious?

God is good, god is merciful, god is just....and anyone who doesn't agree with it is Satan's hand puppet. Gotta love it.

By the way, how is this "friend" doing with abiding by all the OT laws?

I stopped going to the Church group, I usually avoid her god rantings
But I know there was a few times she came to a church meeting with mixed fabrics
so I am pretty sure she is going to burned
