If my children wanted to read that I would allow them to because I hope they would know fantasy from reality. Harry Potter is fake. I'm Christian and I believe in God and Heaven, but I've always liked reading up on other religions. Not because I wanted to convert, but I think it's interesting. I had friends of all religions or even no religion at all. I had straight friends and non straight friends and we all got along great. Even though I wanted to drag them all to church with me on Sunday, I always found their beliefs interesting. I wouldn't be upset if my children had a diverse group of friends either. All of my friends were welcome in my parents home. So to get back on topic here, I don't think this movie is going to turn my kids against God. If that was the authors point with the book, it wont work. If the child is going to be turned against God by a movie, they could be turned against Him in numerous other ways. It must not of taken much to change their minds. I don't appreciate a movie like this made, it wont be allowed in my home. Not because I think it will turn my kids atheist, but I just think it sounds tasteless. Sorry for the vent.....LOL

You sound like an amazing mom! Good for you!
