If this movie had prayer and bible readings, there wouldn't be one person hollering about indoctrinating children. But that's exactly what that is... pushing a religious agenda on kids is, by definition, indoctrination. If you happen to be Christian, a film with a little black magic shouldn't threaten your belief system. Just like seeing a person smoking doesn't automatically make your child pick up a pack of cigs and a lighter to start smoking.
The fact is, there are many religions in the world. And no single religion threatens the existence of the others. Except in the case of Christians... they seem to think that their religion is better or more important than the others and can't exist in a world that embraces freedom of religion.
This movie was fun. Yes, there were some annoying parts... personally, I thought the kid was annoying and screamed entirely too often. But overall, my kids enjoyed it immensely. And surprise, surprise, none of them needed a therapist or exorcism after the credits rolled.
So everyone just calm down. Seeing this movie is not going to make children start wearing all black and yelling hail Lucifer. SMH
