Have any of you seen the documentary "For The Bible Tells Me So"? It's about the way the fundies twist the verses in the Bible to support their homophobic stance. I ordered it from Netflix, watched it this weekend, and can't stop thinking about it. If you haven't, you must see it.

The quote I like the best is this: "Having a 5th grade understanding of the Bible is perfectly acceptable -- if you're a 5th grader."

I watched it over the weekend. Though it did not provide much more insight to issues of which I was already aware, I loved it. I just hope the people who need to see it will watch it. Otherwise, it's mostly just preaching to the choir. But it is wonderful.

Careful, Dollypop. We all know what "knows" means in the Bible.

I agree that hopefully it will get to the people who truly need it, but sometimes the choir needs it desperately as well.

Excellent documentary. The message isn't new but the hope it reverberates is refreshing.
