The Source: Movie Reviews "Saved"

"I have faith. It only becomes cultish when people start to think that their way is the only way. I feel bad for Hilary Faye her whole identity is her relationship with Jesus. (Mandy Moore, Teen Vogue, May 2004, p. 118.)"

This is the core belief of the "pop culture Jesus". I'm not saying we should all protest the movie or anything insane, it just saddens me that any person who professes to "have faith" would ever think that the goal of thier life should be anything less. I know she's responding to the hypocrisy displayed by her character, but it reveals a much larger heart issue.
