I know many of you have heard of the movie Avatar. Well, I recently had the privilege to see this movie. All in all the movie was pretty good. It had exciting battle scenes, yet when God's name is used in vain it affects the whole movie. The 5th commandment says,
''Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain.''
It is terrible and Christians should stand up and say we will not take part in watching these movies if God's name is abused in this manner. There might be a movie out there that you are dying to see, but if we just ignore how our Lord and Savior's name is abused, then we are being like the world. Knowing we have stood up for God in obedience is better then anything else and knowing that GOD IS GOD which means He is holy brings blessing. It says in the Bible that all earthly things will be destroyed, but God is eternal.
Warning: In the movie God's name is taken in vain and other unsuitable words are used from time to time. There is talk of smoking and a mild sexual scene is shown; kissing and stating they have mated for life.
Here is a Christian web site that talks about movies. Check it out!

Rose,
Very nice article! I give you credit for posting it. I also just recently saw it, and to tell you the truth besides being able to pretty much create the whole movie with graphic effects, I did not care for it. Swearing in movies does completely ruin them. But I also didn't really care for the whole "Greeny Earth Vibe" and pretty much implying that there could be other alien like creatures out in space. Anyways, thanks for the right up I never would have thought to post something like that =) Lindsey
I agree! While I really enjoyed the movie and thought it was very entertaining, I just couldn't get over the language! >=/
Lindsay - Thanks!
Eldarwen- I agree!

Great stuff! I know what you mean w/ people using God's name in vain on the silver screen! It happens all the time and I would think w/ so many Christians in the U.S. that SOMEONE would stand up!
