God's Not Dead: In God We Trust

Disgusting, Anti-American propaganda. We live in a country with a separation of church and state so no NO religion gets to decide the lives of others. We sadly those who make this film want their own equivalent of Myslim Sharia law.

You're free to worship as you like, just not to force others to worship as you like. To think otherwise is a slap in the face of America's founding fathers.

Now to the actual movie, poorly written, trite and hysterical. Lackluster performances from nearly everyone. Where did the budget go? Not to the sets. Not to the actors. Not to a competent director. I'm assuming into the producers pockets, like so many other hucksters that couch their scams in a religious cloak. A waste of time, money, and film space.

A money grab from the simple-minded viewers who the makers of this series of film know how to play like a fiddle.

We are in times when people who claim they are Christian and hold themselves up as the compass of how Christians should behave, have become completely confusing. This movie totally fails to show characters engaging the needed Self examination to restore the left leaning Who seem to align with Christian values more clearly in our culture wars and this leaves the right lacking the self-examination that faith requires. This means the movie is another failure and does not create dialogue or communication it just preaches. It is a dismal project.

Unable to be redeemed from this issue it makes no contribution whatsoever and is a waste of time.

In this misguided film, the narrative attempts to fuse religion with politics, presenting faith as a necessary moral compass for governance. While the cinematography is commendable, the underlying premise is problematic. The script relies heavily on emotional manipulation, glossing over the complexities of secular governance. It oversimplifies the debate, painting skeptics as antagonists to virtue, when in reality, many advocate for ethics grounded in reason and humanity. By failing to engage with the realities of a pluralistic society, the film risks alienating viewers who value rational discourse. Ultimately, it leaves one questioning its intentions rather than fostering meaningful dialogue.

This was definitely worth watching. It was as hilarious as that podcast made it seem. Let's start with the villain: a man who wants to govern the country with.....science and reason. Literally. That's actually the villain's big, evil plan. Meanwhile, David A. R White complains that everything nonbelievers don't like, they label Christian nationalism in a movie that repeatedly (and I mean, repeatedly) claims America is, was, and has only ever been, a Christian nation.

This movie simultaneously boasts that there are more ministers in Congress now than ever while ALSO complaining that there's not enough religion in politics and being a proud Christian makes it hard to get elected. This movie complains about the government not giving enough money to David's favorite women's shelter while ALSO claiming the government shouldn't spend money on healthcare. This movie claims that separation of church and state means that government should say out of church, but church should totally be in government while ALSO claiming that it's not promoting Christian nationalism.

It's hysterical and as the movie it is, a comedy, it gets a 10. But for the movie it thinks it in-an effective, well-made film harmlessly presenting the benefits of Christian nationalism-it gets a 0. But that's not an option on IMDb.

So 9 minutes into watching I had to press the pause button, because I could not refrain myself from making a contribution. So, not having watched the whole move, yet, I decided to post a comment.

This is the fifth installment of the God's Not Dead franchise I believe. Now the first two installments I found extremely interesting and as I am a Christian I thoroughly enjoyed them.

But from then on I have noticed the franchise has gotten more political in its narrative.

Now I am a moderate conservative, and I dislike a lot of the new far left ideologies and views, especially on encouraging children in schools to express themselves what gender they are, and gender transitioning and the use of school bathrooms and locker rooms, all of which I vehemently disagree on.

But to me this government conspiracy to erradicate religion theme that the franchise has adopted makes me really uncomfortable.

I am going back to watching the rest of the movie which I already dislike after watching only 9 minutes.
