Since the James Cameron and his Apprentice, Jacobovici decided to make a documentary proclaming to find the Jesus’ family, and last year Da Vinci Code, do you think the media has increased its attack against core fundmental Christian belief who Christ truly is?

I need opinions. I think they have. I was disappointed in Jacobovici since I know him in his Exodus DeCode, which was very convincing proof of the Exodus and that Moses exist…
 
It’s the start of the Easter/Lenten season - what do you expect? Prime time to launch things like this.

Christianity is an inconvenience to many, and seen as the prime obstacle to gay rights, abortion, fetal stem cell research, expanded contraception, a sexualized culture, and so on. Over on less Christian forums, there are people cheering in hope that the Cameron documentary kills Christianity and causes people to lose their faith (I notice that their concern with the accuracy of Cameron’s assertions is secondary to non-existent.) You can count on the strongest political attacks on the faith to occur during the days when people would normally be most reflective and focused on said faith.

Ah well. One more pain to endure, right?
 
Shouldn’t all Christians especially Apologists make case to counter this attack like they did the Da Vinci Code? I do think there are some Christians who will lose faith if they watch the documentary if their faith is weak.

Someone like us in CAF who are amateur apologist won’t be convince. I’m was almost convince but I did more research on the documentary and many archeologists disagree with the documentary itself… citing that there were many Jews with the name of Jesus, Mary, etc…

I think we should act before we see people leaving because of this.

Well, the documentary isn’t out yet, but already people are taking a look at the film’s claims (the information that has been released) and are taking it apart. I have a feeling that after Sunday (when this film comes out), the response will only heighten.

Though it isn’t just left to Christians to defend against this. Archaeologists, historians, etc are also going to have their say - already some have mentioned that what they see is sketchy to say the least.

Not just christianity, but I’ve noticed an increased attack on Judaism, Hindism and moderate Islamics.

They attack Moderate Islamics most, trying to make every muslim look like Osama Bin Laden, or other extremists. The fact is although as catholics we do not agree with Islam, The CCC says this “Muslims worship the same god, but do not have the right interpretation”, therefore by inference we must defend these moderate Islamics from atheists and show them compassion so perhaps they will one day consider the bible instead of the Koran.

Judaism is attacked as a closely related religion to Christianity. But they do not attack the fundamentals, they attack it politically and portray Israel the country itself as “the states attack dog in the Middle east” thus making it’s religion look “Zionist”, which is an indirect attack on “fundamentalist” Christians too. It is no longer in media looked upon as the victim of a terrible annilation,. the reason it was pulled back into existence, but is now painted as the “abused child, abusing others”. This occurred gigantically during last year of cause when Hesbollah kidnaped those soldiers and israel decided to stop hezbollah’s evil intimidation game by cutting it down.

Hinduism is attacked spiritually, it is looked upon as being “hermit like” and anti-social in the media.

While Christianity is not attacked on it’s tenents, but on it’s Archeology and also specifically the Catholic faithful which is consistently attacked in media. Luckily people like Mel Gibson, Jim Cavezel and the directors who made “The Exorcism of Emily Rose” and “The Nativity Story” have managed to keep putting out Catholic(or the closely related SSPX) opinions against the tidal wave of atheism. Matthew 16:18 is once again brought to our minds.

The fact is all religions must combine to defend the fact that we all believe in something greater than this existence, We are all under attack from Athiesm and Satanism. We must take the example of Mr Caveziel, working in the secular realm as a devout Catholic presenting his opinion to atheists, not just by playing Jesus, but by constantly talking about Jesus.

You bet Manny, I’m with you 100%.
If enough Christians would send a letter of protest to the Discovery Channel, I believe we could make a difference as to what comes out of Hollywood. Please read this
Christian (not Catholic) website
afa.net/tombofjesus.htm
& if you agree with it, then at the bottom you can add your email letter to the protest. You might be surprised how many people out there who believe this trash. My 49 year old son bite into the “Judas Gospel”.:mad:
