The Golden Compass((12))

personal, i do not think this movie attacks christianity. but looking on mrs.pullman's interview with a few people, he says that it is about a "church that acquaired great power." also looking back on the movie after reading this and hearing a few students state their opinions i think that the "one lil cut" is something they say to get rid of the original sin that happened to their world. so therefore, i think this movie attacks christianity. I believe the writer is arguing that far back in the past humans made a terrible sin. Something that the church would never approve of. so later on in life, people are trying to make things right or rather the church is trying to make right. That is what i believe the writer is arguing. "Sometimes people think that if something is done in the name of faith or religion, it must be good. Unfortunately, that isn’t true; some things done in the name of religion are very bad. That was what I was trying to describe in my story."

when i am watching movies like these. i dont really jump to think one thing. i kind of sit back and just watch the movie. sure, authors have certain reasons to why they made movies, but i am not the type to really analyze these kinds of things. what i wrote is how i saw the movie after reading a few things and trying to attempt to analyze the movie.
