I also don't appreciate people criticising almost every thread I create here. Spyrorocks with the Harry Potter thread, and now SpyroGirl101 saying I'm anti-God.

Spyrorocks, if you read this thread, please close this. Apparently this topic is too contraversial for this community of mostly thirteeen-year-olds and under.

OK sure. Its your thread.

Just my 2 cents, it doesn't bother me when people say "Oh my god!" because they are talking about their god, whomever it might be, and I know followers of the god I worship would never use his name in vain.

Just my 0.02...

When I was younger and a young Christian, the very notion of this series of books horrified me. Now that I'm older, I find that I enjoyed the first book well enough (except for the blunt, badly re-phrased Bible passage; c'mon, Phil, you can do a better job of changing Scripture for an alternate universe!) and I am willing to read the series before I pass judgment. I disagree with Pullman mightily, but I enjoy his writing style and he knows how to tell a good story (if he'd just leave the atheist preaching out of it). What a person believes is between him and God and it is his own choice to make based on the life he leads. I may not agree with everyone who doesn't believe what I do, but it is their decision to make, not mine.

I'm not sure if I'm excited about this movie or not. The trailers make me cringe and I hate the actual pronunciations of the names and words (I had different ones and I'm quite fond of them; LIE-ra, DAY-mon, AYE-or-rik, etc). But I'll finish reading the books before judging them and then maybe I'll see the movie if Pullman hasn't made me hate them by the end (I already dislike "The Subtle Knife").

Also, the music on the site is pretty and I appreciate the narration (since it's a ****able Flash site, I can't read anything on it).

I did NOT say that.

The way we would say "dæmons" is like this: Dehh-monns"

Not respectful. At all. It's blatant criticism. And I hate that.

And it's true, this community is mostly made up of under-thirteens. Deny it if you want, but it's true.

OH, BLUE, OUCH!!!! THAT HURTS!!!!!

For everything that is said, someone will agree, and someone else will disagree. Problem is 13 year old girls [and this 15 year old boy] must voice their opioion on everthing, no matter how big or small, or how litte it effects them, they just must voice it!

And for the record, I hate when people say "OMG" too.

And Spyrogirl101, I'd suggest you get more accurate information before making accusations like that. I also don't like the way you said that. I believe in God. I am Catholic. But I like the books anyway.

In the movie, there is a prophecy which tells of God being killed and the devil takes over. This happens in the movie. If you believe in God. Tell this to everyone you know to prevent this movie from becoming successful!

Whoever told you that is wrong. There is no devil in the novels, actually. And it doesn't even get that far until The Amber Spyglass, the third book in the series.

I can see this is going to be contaversial. Here's the story.

According to the books, God is not really the creator. He the first angel, and he told all the angels that came after him that he created them. But really, the "creator" is dark matter, or "Dust". The first angel, or "the authority" actually dies, but no one kills him. Thus, when people die, they simply become part of the environment, Dust.

Please note [glow=red:4e76d598fe]I do not believe this.[/glow:4e76d598fe] But I am fine with it, seeing as it's just a book.
