nadinesalakovv Movie Plot: After she is taught the theory of evolution in her biology class at university, a young Christian woman begins to drift away from her faith.Review: As a strong in faith Christian i really enjoyed this movie. It is realistic and focuses on the evolution vs creationism debate. The acting is decent and the film tackles the realism of being weak in faith, bitterness, lack of knowledge and faith. "A Matter of Faith" is a movie that hardcore Christians, evolutionists and hardcore atheists will enjoy.
joematlockauthor Clearly a film made by believers for those of faith. Since the majority of reviews here are from those who do not understand or knows God's love - I can see this story will not resonate with them. So, for those who have discover God's love and, hopefully, your love for Him then this be above science. My undergrad degree is chemistry so there is some that I disagree with, like time/evolution presentation. For those seeking an evangelistic tool "Risen" or God's Not Dead" would be better... The first is a "what if" scenario and the latter presents facts. If you are witnessing to a literary person, I recommend the novel: "The Other Side Of Courage." Oddly, an atheist friend taunted me into watching "A Matter Of Faith" and I recommend it to only those seeking inspirational entertainment. Non-believers clearly can't see or 'forgive' the concept of the story. I would have thought the film's title alone would discourage Humanists, hence minimizing the review slams presented here.
kgibbons-24243 It beats me that films like this can get made in this day and age. Completely groundless propaganda by spacers who want to make up their own answers to the big questions. The bible is a book, like any other, and not necessarily true. "The Odyssey" predates the bible: should we believe that too? How are people intelligent enough to produce films able to come up with this drivel? Absolute hammy muck!
chandlerklebs Possible spoiler alert if you haven't seen the movie yet.I watched this movie and it felt like what happened near the end was a sermon instead of a debate. The creationist guy who finished the debate for the other guy was basically saying that we should believe in creationism not because it's true but because we need a god to have rules and to be accountable to.If you believe in an all powerful god who can create the world in six days, then let him fight his battles. When you try to defend him, you imply that he is too weak to do it himself.To be clear, I am not all that well versed in evolution. I was raised in Christianity with creationism as the only thing I knew. However, something tells me that this movie is not at all an accurate representation of evolution. I have read some books and watched videos about evolution. If I understand correctly, evolution is not an explanation of the origin of life but how life has evolved over time.But more importantly. One could theoretically still accept evolution and believe in a god. Similarly, one could be a creationist and believe in a god that is NOT the same one as the Christian god. The world is full of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, atheists, and agnostics. There is no such dichotomy of Evolution vs Creationism for the simple reason that there are infinite different types of creationism and/or theories for how life began. Indeed, one need not believe life had an origin at all.While I don't particularly like this movie all that much, I do think it is valuable because movies like this represent what Christians believe. It is for this reason that atheists like me still sometimes like to watch Christian movies. I may disagree with everything about Christianity but I would hate to misrepresent them. My main complaint though is that Christians nearly always misrepresent non-Christians. This can't be helped however because they simply often don't know what the rest of the world believes.
