OK, I'm unclear about this movie... is this supposed to be a humbling movie for christians, or a farce on christianity that is supposed to portray its stupidity.

I'm totally missing the message here... Is it a spoof on Christianity or a kick in the pants for all the holier-than-thou types?

Post your comments here.

BTW, I know next to nothing about this movie, I only found out about it like 15 minutes ago... and only because it has Mandy Moore (who describes her character in this movie as 'The Evil Christian'..."

Hmm, who was it 'created' by? Are they Christian? Are they Catholic?

Meh. It seems to just another lame teen-comedy movie that happens to have to have Christianity as a gimmic. If you're looking for deep controversial messages, you'll probably have to look elsewhere.

What does the trailer talk about? i get the synopsis... chick finds out her boyfriend is gay, tries to save him by having sex or something, winds up pregnant, and becomes an outcast... but what is the message? Or do we have to wait and find out?

Looks more like standard high school angst movie with bad humor and a Jesus punch line.

Looks more like standard high school angst movie with bad humor and a Jesus punch line.That could hit a good chunk of people the wrong way... I don't know if that would be smart... is it really a christian-basher movie, or just a popular-girl-basher movie?

Couldn't tell you any more than what I have. The clip does not give much info...It is based in a christian school, and there was some joke about the idiots thinking Jesus was white (I mean really, Jesus...white? No way )

Can't it be both? :lol:

It's just a situation comedy like any other, nothing to be taken seriously. If anything, I think it has some cliché moral like "true faith is in your heart" or some such.
