Noah Film Reportedly Liberal Hatchet Job

Russell Crowe Playing Noah

Even though some Christians are acting like we should be thankful to Hollywood for spending the
time of day on an alleged Christian theme, it appears director Darren Aronofsky couldn't resist totally ignoring the actual Biblical story, and instead has turned it into what Al Gore would consider a dream film: one that focuses on environmentalism and overpopulation.

One reviewer said, the film depicts Noah "as a 'crazy, irrational, religious nut who is fixated on modern-day problems like overpopulation and environmental degradation.'"

The idea that God destroyed the earth for environmental reasons, or that overpopulation was an issue, is an outright lie and corruption of the story.

But since Aronofsky said his goal from the beginning was to "make a Noah for everyone," it was already doomed to failure in regard to Christian audiences.

Unfortunately, Hillsong head of film and television, Ben Field, doesn't mind the unbiblical content and focus of the story. "If you're expecting it to be word for word from the Bible, you're in for a shock. There can be an opportunity for Christians to take offense. [But] we were pretty excited that a studio like Paramount would invest in a Bible-themed movie."

No, Mr. Field, we're not a bunch of beggars hoping for Hollywood to develop a movie that uses the Biblical story to promote its liberal agenda. 

Aronofsky said this about the film: "For people who are very literal-minded, it would be great to communicate that the themes of the film are very much in line with the themes of the Bible -- ideas about hope, second chances and family. If they allow that, they're going to have an incredible experience with the movie. If they don't allow it, it's theirs to lose."

It's ours to lose then Aronofsky, as I have no desire and won't go and see this piece of liberal garbage masquerading as being based upon the Bible.

What Hollywood needs to learn is if it's going to make films based upon the Bible, it needs to be accurate or don't bother. Most Christians don't mind filling in the blanks as far as a story needing to be filled in, but to change the story outright and make into another liberal narrative, is an outrage that hopefully will result in people staying home.

Will Hollywood Corrupt "Biblical" Stories?

Hollywood is of course primarily interested in making money, so when it looks to Christian
audiences as a source of income, they tend to go to the Bible for source material.

That creates a potential problem, as the upcoming story of Noah reveals, as after a couple of screenings - one to Christians in Arizona, and another to Jews in New York - it was found it to be a use of Biblical material to portray the flood as the result of climate change. I'm not kidding you. That is the reported theme of the ark and flood story from test screenings.

Instead of sin and rebellion against God, it is the "disrespect" of the environment that caused God to flood the earth.  

The director of the film, Darren Aronofsky, even identified Noah as the "first environmentalist."

If Hollywood attempts to go the route of lying about what the Bible actually says, and layers its liberal lies onto the narrative, Christians must and will totally oppose the film, and not only stay away in droves, but blast the fictional Hollywood account of the story as an outrage against them.

It would be better for Hollywood to not make these films than to make them and be perceived as a slap in the face to believers in Jesus Christ.

Christians aren't beggars that are just thankful to get the notice of Hollywood. If it wants to make movies based upon the Bible, than it needs to remain true to the Scriptures, not recreate them in their own image.

This is the usual strategy of Satan, to use the scriptures in a perverted way to confuse the ignorant and unlearned. We need to be vigilant and respond accordingly if they attempt to use the Bible to distort God and confuse weaker believers.

If the early responses to the Noah film are accurate, Hollywood is already making a huge mistake; hopefully one it will pay for through huge losses.

It even makes me wonder if it is purposefully done in order to keep the demand for Christian films under wraps in order to keep good stories from being told. That would be done by making a film Hollywood knows would be negative to Christians, giving it the appearance they aren't a legitimate market to cater to.
