A good job for apologetics Read some of the reviews from both Christians and non and am frankly quite surprised at the very negative reactions. What happened to the American open mind? A dying art? The young student, I thought, gave solid arguments and credible evidence in the presentation of his belief in God. And yes, I agree that although not all atheists, agnostics or non religious folk hate God, there are those who do--as the professor depicted in this film. I have friends like him who because God did not answer their prayers for a terminally ill loved one, have turned against their Creator and, yes, even hate God. So it is not at all far fetched that this professor could have the same reaction to the death and loss of his mother to cancer when he was a young boy. The fact that the young uni student took a great risk in deciding to defend his faith because he felt convicted that God was leading him to do this made one consider the depth of their own commitment. He could so easily have ditched the class or complied with the instructor's request. But like Daniel of old when he faced the Lions Den for worshiping and praying to his God openly, as was his custom, so this young man took the risk to his academic future. Despite family and friends urging him to take the easy way out, he stood firm for his faith with heartening results. Cheesy? I will concede that I did think the scenes with the professor's girlfriend were rather over the top. But the rest of the movie I certainly consider thought provoking and well done.
