A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

This movie was good. Nothing wrong with a good natured family film.I see many atheists are bum-hurt over the movie message about belief and miracles. What I have come to realize is atheists are the most intolerant folks on the planet. They especially hate Christians but some reason love Islam.This movie had a message of hope and has a family theme. It has the familiar TV characters and if you do not like a Christian family movie, avoid it. It's funny that atheists preach tolerance but if anyone dares oppose their view, their proverbial fangs and character fault shows.Good movie for what it is 7 out of 10. This movie shows the follies of non-believers and why hope is better than none.

Most offensive piece of crap I've ever seen. Why didn't they just cast the Palin family and call it a day. Some of My favorite lines..."what we have to include all religions now! A menorah and whatever symbol Kwanzaa has.." and "98% of America is Christian so I will continue to say merry Christmas"I loved Baldwin's character and couldn't agree with his viewpoints more...turns out he is the scrooge character because he does not want to be MADE to celebrate Christmas. This movie makes an ass out of itself, the actors in the film, and Christians in general. Terrible acting...terrible story...and terribly offensive.

This film is so disgusting and disturbing on so many levels I refused to let my niece watch it. I want her to know that our faith is about love and that means having utmost humility and respect for the beliefs of others. What strikes me as most sad is the "us against them" viewpoint that has become all to prevalent in today's churches along with The idea that being a Christian puts you automatically at war with anyone who doesn't believe as we do. this film has a confrontational, angry tone that is based an a fantasy that America belongs to us and us alone, and our faith has no room for anyone who is not a fundamentalist Christian, I am disturbed that it paints us as angry, hard hearted people. Christmas with a capital C is nothing more than paranoid masturbation and has no place in my home.

Having been a pastor in Alaska for 15 years, I can tell you that this state is the most un-religious state in the union. This movie portrays it as Texas-North. Sorry Brad Stein and the rest of the cast, but the reality is that you do not re-write reality for the sake of a screenplay. Yes, there is the conflict between church and state. But nowhere is that more evident than in Alaska.My experience was far different from that of the scriptwriters. The reality is that the Christians were fighting to get the creche on to public land. We learned to put it on church property, and ask the public officials to come to the dedication. In return, we would give an invocation at the community Christmas tree lighting. And yes, we use inclusive language, since we have Christians, Jews, B'hais and atheists in attendance. In towns of 4000, or 3000, you know who believes what. And you can choose to respect that, enter into dialogue and work on long-term evangelism, or shout at them in the local cafe, and go backward for the next 20 years. In a small town, there are long memories. And the stupid tirade of a pastor at the funeral of tragic death of a family, or the histrionics of a Brad Stein-character are remembered far longer than the loving grace freely given in a time of tragedy or crisis.The conflict between church and state portrayed in this film is a Texas or lower 48 phenomenon. The norms are reversed, to fit the screenwriters' ideology, not the reality of Alaska.Contrary to the characters' wishes, the First Amendment is still the First Amendment. Because Alaska is part of the United States of America. And we abide by the Constitution of the United States of America. In Alaska and the lower 48. Do you? Rev. Dr. James R. Berger Fort Myers, FL
