THE INVENTION OF . . (FAITH PROTECTION). .LYING

So back to a quick review of movie l am revisiting,The invention of lying stars Ricky G,it actuality funny in places,well as being honest but that not going to get you far in the faith community known as Christianity.
One review wrote this..`I wasn't expecting the sweetness in this film, its quietness and thoughtful core. It feels, in spirit, more like a fable, in the mold of mid-century
 films like It's a Wonderful Life`. 
But another review was not as humble....
`The whole biblical concept of God is painted as one big, fat lie. Of course, this is all done for the purpose of humour, but the movie’s intent is clear, to make a blatant attack on Christianity, biblical truth, religion, and morality .
Here where like more openness of the first Review.
This Film presents well, faith, has a struggle with very few answers, God does appear to be harsh and unloving,bad things happen...the rude dialogue actually funny beyond.
Some frank questions along with Pain injected into the movie is fresh.
You laugh really laugh, trouble is Christian do not like out beliefs questioned...this film does that.

We do not like God appearing unloving, perhaps life being harsh.
Literacy and Film allow for that.
It not overtly crude,sexual,nor faith destroying it decent and worth some time investing.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
