Why the General Public Hates Christians, Yoda Breaks His Silence: “Fiction was Star Wars. Happen It Did Not.”

Why the General Public Hates Christians, Yoda Breaks His Silence: “Fiction was Star Wars. Happen It Did Not.”

A long ago time in a galaxy far, far from here

God went to the movies.

He knew the ending, so He decided other forms of entertainment like babies and platypuses would suit Him better.

And I agree with Him.  I have never seen The Titanic. Why would I pay $8.00 for popcorn when I know (spoiler alert) IT SINKS?!?!?!

Y’all calm the freak down!!!!!

I am not going to see The Shack for these reasons:

  1. Life is hard and sad enough.
  2. No.
  3. I know Jesus, if something as horrific as the murder of my child were to occur all I could do is fall into His arms.

BUT IT IS JUST A MOVIE!!!

And everyone who is taking offense to it is once again making a mockery of us.

Someone get me a cup of Starbucks!!!

Sweet Jesus, HE’s JESUS!  LET HIM BE JESUS.

He is not any more shocked or offended that God is being portrayed by a black woman than He was that (spoiler alert) Darth Varder was Luke’s father.  FYI:  In German Darth Vader means dark father so… some humans saw that one coming.

The day the Good Lord knit together Morgan Freeman in his mother’s womb He already knew, “This guy’s voice overs of me will be legend.”

The day Jim Carey broke through the mysterious waters of in utero and breathed his first breath God knew, “This guy will be obnoxious… and do a poor depiction of me in Bruce Almighty.

That wasn’t REALLY the Holy Grail in Monty Python.

George Burns, OB1, Aslan – A TALKING LION… all not real characters.

The most embarrassing part of the evangelical elite is that when we want it to look like God stepped up and broke through the barriers of the red curtain of Hollywood cinema we stick our bare butts out there and call it ordained!

“THE LORD WAS ALL OVER THAT!  AND I CAN SEE HOW THE TRINITY WAS SLAYING THAT FIGHT SCENE WITH TRUTH! AMEN! PRAISE JESUS! HE WAS ALLOWED IN THAT MOVIE!”

Please. Sit. Down.

Jim Caviezel wasn’t really Jesus.

Mel Gibson is still a lunatic.  I believe He loves Jesus, so do I… yet sometimes I am still a butthead.

Dear Christians, you can let Jesus be Jesus.  I find it hard to believe that anyone who goes to see The Shack will burn in hell because they take on the assumption God is a black woman. Also, if they see a glimpse of a loving Father… He will gladly take them to the finish line of Truth.  Cause He’s THE LORD.

I stand by this because the real Jesus is… the real Jesus.  He knew about The Shack when He breathed His last and His last words were, “It is finished…” NOT: “CUT!!!  WAIT! I WAS GOING TO DIE FOR HUMANITY BUT NOT IF THEY ARE GOING TO MISREPRESENT ME IN CINEMA!!! AND I AM GETTING DOWN FROM HERE IF AMERICA ALLOWS HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE! OH! AND I WANT A CHRISTMAS TREE ON MY STARBUCKS CUP! SOMEONE CALL MY AGENT!”

Now then, let us all go back to our happy place.

The Shack is fiction.

I am happy to be a fool for the Gospel… The Shack isn’t the Gospel so you can love it or hate it and not be a fool.

Santa Claus is not real, Satan is.  He’d be happy to use you and your high horse to make non-believers think we are morons.

[Tweet “Santa Claus is not real, Satan is. He’d be happy to use you and your high horse to make non-believers think we are morons.”]

Star Wars is better than Star Trek.

They will know we are Christians by our love… and hopefully our sanity.

Let Jesus be Jesus and may the force be with you.

May your floors be sticky and your movies have happy endings. Love, Jami

    Wait just a minute. Did you say Star Wars is better than Star Trek?!? lol Loved your article!

    • jami_amerine on March 4, 2017 at 9:21 am

      I stand by it!

        Star Wars is better than Star Trek? Oh wow, now I am going to have to re-evaluate our friendship. 🙂

        • jami_amerine on March 7, 2017 at 6:18 am

          Sorry…

  3. denise on March 4, 2017 at 9:29 am

    Thank you for this post!!! Way too much time wasted on judgment and condemnation for things that aren’t that important. God has got this.

  4. Kathryn on March 4, 2017 at 9:53 am

    I take great offense to your article… Star Trek is WAY better… Lol! Excellent article and perfect points. I feel the same way, The Shack is not the gospel. Thanks for writing!

    • jami_amerine on March 4, 2017 at 9:54 am

      LOL

  5. Lorraine Reep on March 4, 2017 at 10:26 am

    Fiction it is…the trouble with us is so many of us don’t seem to know it. People, please don’t tell me that my dead mother “got her wings” or my sister died young because “God needed another angel”.

    In the meantime, I’ll keep seeing a recurring theme in many movies…the fact that there is a villian, that we need him to save us…and that there is nothing we could do to earn or repay him for our rescue. That’s “Jesus in the movies” to me. ❤️

      Amen. #stuffiwishyoudquitsaying

    “Santa Clause is not real, Satan is. He’d be happy to use you and your high horse to make non-believers think we are morons.”

    LOVE.
    Yes indeed Satan is enjoying all the opportunities for division over this …and Beauty and the Beast… I might add…

    • jami_amerine on March 4, 2017 at 10:50 am

      No. Is that true?!! I haven’t heard about this.

  7. Kathie R Waters on March 4, 2017 at 10:50 am

    I agree with everything in this, EXCEPT that Star Wars is better than Star Trek. No way. Now I gotta go share this… Love your blog!

    • jami_amerine on March 4, 2017 at 10:51 am

      LOL

  8. Rebecca on March 4, 2017 at 10:57 am

    I’m so out of the loop, I’ve never even heard of this movie.. but it doesn’t matter … if there’s popcorn, I won’t go LOL

  9. Jacqui on March 4, 2017 at 12:39 pm

    I read the book. I will see the movie with my tribe. Yes it is fiction. No more no less. Love you Pap

  10. Brandi on March 4, 2017 at 5:42 pm

    I would love to hear you thoughts on all the hubbub and talk from Christians about the new Beauty and the Beast movie and a gay character. A lot of Christians are saying they won’t be giving $ towards this movie because that would be supporting this lifestyle…

    • jami_amerine on March 4, 2017 at 5:43 pm

      I can’t even.

  11. Snow Kelly on March 4, 2017 at 7:06 pm

    Jami, I do love The Shack. My copy is tabbed, underscored, highlighted, etc. And I do love this blog! But then, I LOVE almost all of your blogs. They are relevant to the “real” world –but so is The Shack. All of this from a very old gal: soon to be eighty-two! You keep writing, girl! And I’ll keep reading! Sending baskets of hugs your way….very much looking forward to your Stolen Jesus. I’ll definitely be a buyer and a reader and a sharer!

  13. Tandalyn Szczurek on March 5, 2017 at 1:13 pm

    Amen! Thank you for your words. SO true they are. Bless you, I love your posts.

    • jami_amerine on March 5, 2017 at 2:46 pm

      That made me lol!

  14. Kathy on March 6, 2017 at 9:19 am

    WOW! Thank you, thank you! I love Jesus AND I have an open mind.

    There are actually plenty of particulars like that to take into consideration. That may be a nice level to deliver up. I supply the ideas above as basic inspiration however clearly there are questions like the one you convey up the place the most important factor will likely be working in trustworthy good faith. I don?t know if greatest practices have emerged round issues like that, however I’m sure that your job is clearly recognized as a fair game. Each boys and girls feel the affect of only a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

    Ich entschuldige mich, aber meiner Meinung nach lassen Sie den Fehler zu. Ich kann die Position verteidigen. Schreiben Sie mir in PM, wir werden reden.
