"For the Bible Tells Me So"
Review of "For The Bible Tells Me So" Documentary;
(written directly after seeing it)
Truly one of the most intensly compeling documentery I have seen in a very long time. I set out to dislike it, sensing I would be hit by a barrage of negative/hateful spite towards Gays, instead what I was met with was an extremly balanced, researched and fact based documentary.
Each side was allowed a voice. There a wonderful mix of scientist/pshycologists/famous faces all giving their thoughts on the matter. Yet what really draws you in are the very real, relatable, human, moving family stories. Of parents who's strict religious believes condtradicted their unconditional love for their children. Some were further down the road of acceptance, yet everyone's journey counted.
I was in awe of these people who commited their lives to this documentary and opened not just their homes but their hearts too. Facinating documentary that *everyone* should watch, today. If I could give it more then 5 stars (out of 5) I would.
