Human is Human. Taking out the omnipotence of God, whatever one says of the other, is utter disservice to each other, for one do not know the experience of existence of the other one. Does that make human equals to God? Hmm...no one knows what is God or what is God like. Having said that, now you know what people says, are really a justification of their beliefs, and satisfying their own shortcomings. Nothing of God-nature or close to it. "All good things, have their good intentions up till the last drop - so it's not too hard to see what is divinely good" God is God. Human is Human.

"Don't touch this! Don't taste that! Don't go near this!" Do you think things that are here today and gone tomorrow are worth that kind of attention? Such things sound impressive if said in a deep enough voice. They even give the illusion of being pious and humble and ascetic. But they're just another way of showing off, making yourselves look important. i came across the following verses sometime last week and thought immediately of your current posts on “the golden compass”:

If a person is ever in doubt after watching the movie, I would think his/her faith is not strong enough and hence easily 'sesat jalan'. But why judge people in the first place? Refer Matthew 7:3 I don’t think watching the movie makes you a deviated Christian.
