Catholic League boycotts Nicole Kidman film The Golden Compass
Added On:11/28/2007 3:52:01 AM

The Catholic League are calling for a boycott on Nicole Kidman’s new film ‘The Golden Compass.’ The political activists believe that film will teach children atheism. The movie is based on books by atheist author Phillip Pullman.

 

‘The Golden Compass’ is based on ‘His Dark Materials’ trilogy which is believed to be about a girl on a mission to kill God.

 

The Catholic League believes the film will prompt children to read the books. “Parents might be inclined to say, ‘Hey, our kid really enjoyed the movie, why don’t we buy him His Dark Materials for Christmas?’ (It) introduces the kid to atheism. (It’s) a stealth campaign,” says Catholic League president William Donohue.
