Some Christians are just much too intense. I heard about this issue as well, but I don't know if I'm necessarily against the series. I guess I'm not really crazy about the idea of the final book being about killing God, but I'm not going to have a f.cking temper tantrum like the rest of the Christian community. If Christians keep on acting like immature 8 year old kids who get pissed every time they don't get their way or run into a different world view, then how is that going to portray us?

From an outside perspective, it sounds like propaganda aimed towards youth.
Think "The Poison Mushroom" circa 1938 Germany.

Allah is YWH, jesus (being god in human form, and the son of god, etc) = YWH. These are indisputable facts. Do you really know so little about your own religion, and the other major religions of this world?
Oh good point, I never thought of it that way but I never got into Islamic theology so I just based it on my own assumptions which i thought were correct.
But reading the Koran online for 5 minutes is enough for anyone to say @#$@$ that can't be the same God.

Theres talking animals, flying witches, and a magical compass, however I can see how if you believe in burning bushes that talk, that you could believe this movie as well. Your right, polars talk and wear armor, and they also have a great kingdom in the north pole, where they wage wars against the evil penguins. Do you really think this is propoganda? Given the biased way it is explained by almost every christian website, I could actually view it as propoganda, but when you disect the movie for what it really is and actually take a look at the story, any retard can tell that no one is actually going to convert to atheism from this movie.

Yeah this is complete bullsh.t, religious bible humpers need to boycott everything these days that disagrees with their religion. I'm going to checkout my movie theatre on friday and see if there is any people boycotting it outside and go f..k with them..

These kind of f.gs piss me off, and is why public religion is stupid.

In the book I talked about, there's talking Jewish mushrooms, so thanks for proving my point.
It's aimed towards youth.

Well being Muslim for all of my life is enough for me to say you're a f..king idiot.

Listen, you made some idiotic point about what would happen if someone wrote a story about Killing Allah, and we told you that Allah and God are the same, in fact Allah just means God in Arabic. Muslims believe in the same God that Christians and Jews believe in. Therefore the Allah thing would make no difference.

But you decided to be an idiot and base your opinion off reading the Koran on the internet for 5 minutes (and I think that's bullsh.t too), I guess that makes you an expert doesn't it?! Well congratulations! Here's your f..king diploma!

I already knew it was aimed towards youth. The point I made was that, no matter what book you are talking about, I'm sure the subliminal message in it was HATE JEWS, or something to that affect. That is of course an assumption, correct me if Im wrong. The point I was trying to make was, the only way this could be made to be propoganda for children is if every child on the earth had little gods in glass bottles, and could open the glass bottles, therefore unintentionally killing god. I can see how a biased view of the book could make it out to be propoganda, but it really is not.
