The Gospel of Will Smith

Right on. You made me laugh

They are just being snobs. They think they are smarter than everybody else. Ignore them.

Rob,
This is why we as Americans can choose to support or not to support their views by either supporting their work or not to support. I think it is great someone can stand on their principles or not, instead of blindly following like sheep, like many of Americans. While I like Will Smith, (one of the best role models still today), someone like Tom Cruise I don't and don't support him or see his movies. The right to chose. So let people have their opinion and telling them to stop is ridiculous. If more people stood on their beliefs and principles then we wouldn't continue to elect all the idiots that we continue to do...

Executive pay and celebrity salaries are set by the market. If a qualified executive gets a better offer, he goes somewhere else. Companies have to pay good executives enough that they won't lose them to other companies. Union pay is set by something akin to extortion - pay up or we are going to shut you down. This might be acceptable when an industry is in control of the market. It is unacceptable when this drives a company into the ground and makes it beg everyone else to buy its cars and give them other people's tax money to keep them afloat with the same old outdated ways of doing business.

This is what Christ says "don't throw your peals before swine, lest they trample them under their feet,and turn and tear you to pieces." But then He commisioned us to go into the world and bring good news. And the good news is, Christ came, died and rose again. That whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. Plain and simple. But man rather create other ways and gymnastics called religion to come to God. "Whoever has the Son has life..." and guess what the oppposite of that is. That's the exclusiveness of Christianity that sits it apart from other man-made religion. And why a lot of people don't like it. Because it ahs to be their way. But I'm afraid ultimately we don't call the shot. Yes, a true believer of Christ will not shrink back from announcing that good news. We are under the King's commission. And who would not share that good news? So, "sheeshing" a Christian will only inflame their passion. And millions were martyred and continue to be prosecuted for that bel ief. Because we have the "faith", a conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old gained approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible."Heb. 11. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes..."Romans1:16. What then, to me there are only two kinds of people- the believer and the nonbeliever in Christ. The big question is, which one are you? Will Smith is not going to answer that for you when He comes. All of these- Hollywood, our freedom, our country, your career, whatever it might be that stands in a way between you and God will go into smoke. What will be left standing is your soul that has only two distinations- heaven or hell. Not a very popular word now a days. But does that mean it does not exist? Not talking about sensitive matters like God or Christ does not make Him not to exist. Just because a topic about God or Christ or religion is seldom a very peaceful discussion and we don't want to talk about it doesn't make the question go away. Will Smith in this movie opens up a lot angst in the human heart. The existence of God has been poked with holes by those that has no merit or has little understanding of Him according to His word. And they have the audacity call themselves experts. This is nothing new. He's always been the winner. Philosophy and other religion come and go. But He remains sitting on His throne still waiting for man to come through His own Sacrifice.
