Who decided that "Christian" entertainment had to be safe, grandmother approved, Hallmark channel slop?

The stories from the bible are raw, dangerous and violent. Mel Gibson is the only filmmaker with any huevos rancheros.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

I understand why the genre might not be someone’s cup of tea. I don’t particularly gravitate to it myself, usually. But it’s okay for Christians to tell and enjoy stories that are tense, suspenseful, even scary. There’s nothing inherently sinful about any of those feelings. And the categorical insistence on avoiding those feelings is precisely why almost all “faith based” entertainment is terrible. I would argue that bland, bad, boring “Christian entertainment” — which is almost all of it, truly — is a far greater cultural problem for Christians than any horror movie ever could be. Christians used to be the great storytellers of western civilization. That was back when they told difficult, complicated, sometimes bleak and violent stories. Not anymore. Now the stories are all very nice and pleasant, but they also suck and nobody with any taste can stand to watch them.

@cenkuygur Kamala Harris is the most empty headed, soulless candidate I’ve ever seen. Democrats should be ashamed.

@mazemoore @wildforcongress @HaleyforMI With friends like that, who needs enemies?

@spencerpratt The only question I have—is this Chardonnay or Tequila? This particular slur has a frozen margarita sound to it.

@PolitiBunny Good catch, Foo!!

@BurtMaclin_FBI @abbythelibb_ Anakin’s anger and hunger for power made him simple to manipulate. He had every chance to say no.

Selfless courage is so rare these days, especially from politicians. Haley Stevens was well aware of the consequences and made the difficult choice. She answered the question when her moment came.

[Rachael Bade @rachaelmbade]

Haley Stevens isn't dumb.

She knew before she backed Mike Rogers that she was abt to become the Democratic Party's greatest pariah this cycle. And that she'd never resurrect her political career if she did this.

If AES loses, she gets blamed. If he wins, she looks weak.

There is no political upside to what she did.

And yet she chose to do it anyway. Bc clearly she felt it was the right thing to do -- despite all the voices in her ear telling her not to.

Gutsy.

@ScottJenningsKY All women should always vote for Democrats because of abortion or trans sports or something.

[DougKBaker @DougKBaker]

@ScottJenningsKY According to Democrats, anyone disagreeing with an Islamic takeover must be certifiably insane and should be institutionalized.

[DougKBaker @DougKBaker]

@lsferguson I hope Haley Stevens has a safe house where she can lay low for a few weeks. Her new enemies mean business.

[DougKBaker @DougKBaker]

Dems aren’t sounding nearly as confident about the midterms as they were one week ago. Carville has been reduced to being a social media hit man making caustic sound bites.

[Western Lensman @WesternLensman]

Carville is having an unhinged crash out over Haley Stevens:

"If you think that these Republicans are going to treat you as anything other than what they view you as...a used condom. The Democrats don't even think you're worth a used condom."

They're coming completely unglued.

[DougKBaker @DougKBaker]

@alx Dangerous for whom? I hope they don’t mean dangerous for Haley Stevens.

[DougKBaker @DougKBaker]

@DavidAsmanfox Does Raskin know that “Inside baseball” doesn’t mean fantasy baseball?
