, 13:14, June 27, 2016→Star Wars: "Not fit for human consumption"?
I don't know if any of you have seen it, but should Gods and Generals be on this list? It's a hard movie to find (after release, it was "censored" by a number of companies, which means few people know much about it) but it shows loyalty to God, country, and beliefs. It takes place during the Civil War, I believe, though it's been a long time since I've seen it. --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 13:04, 13 May 2016 (EDT)

==Star Wars==
While it is clear that Star Wars is, as this page speaks of, about good vs. evil, I question whether it should really be labelled as a "Greatest Conservative Movie." I find a number of things concerning, including:
*The teaching of a universal force, ''which is neither good nor evil'' (There is no such thing as a neutral God-like power)
*The general idea there there is no God and Satin, but just a neutral power that can be used by men (and aliens) for God-like or Satan-like purposes
*The teaching of "trust your feelings" and that what is needed can be found withing you (see Jeremiah 17:9, and others)
*The trance-like state which is required to learn from and use the force (demon possession, anyone?)
*The "worship" of "the force." (They do call it a Jedi ''temple'', after all)
*And while I'm making points against this series: almost all Sci-Fi fiction implies if not states that there is not God. Life of many different kinds simply appeared or evolved on many different planets, and there are many life-supporting planets on which there being live.
Need I go on? I could, but I think I've made my point. If everyone wants to keep this on the list, I will not argue about it, but I would not have put this movie here. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 09:14, 27 June 2016 (EDT)
