Golden Compass: The Church weighs in

12:21 PM Thu, Dec 06, 2007 |  | 
Stephen Becker   E-mail   News tips

For those of you who may be concerned about an anti-religion message in The Golden Compass, it might make you feel better to read this review from the Catholic News Service. The most telling passage of the review:
Most moviegoers with no foreknowledge of the books or Pullman's personal belief system will scarcely be aware of religious connotations, and can approach the movie as a pure fantasy-adventure. This is not the blatant real-world anti-Catholicism of, say, the recent "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" or "The Da Vinci Code." Religious elements, as such, are practically nil.
