I have received some e-mails from our members warning about a children’s movie called The Golden Compass with an anti-Christian theme that’s being released December 7. I try to be diligent about checking things that are circulated on the internet, as many unfounded rumors are perpetuated this way. I use www.snopes.com routinely to debunk these “urban myths.” A similar website is http://www.truthorfiction.com. Both of these websites confirm the nature of this movie, which could also be viewed as an indictment of religious oppression in the institutionalized church. Adults can make up their own minds, but because children are impressionable, I would not recommend taking them to this movie. For further information, consult http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/compass.asp or http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/g/golden-compass.htm.
