MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., March 27, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- Noah is told by God to build an Ark in order to save his family from a global flood. Not a difficult story to decipher. Why is Hollywood unable to? Many of today's films have supernatural/disaster themes (Jupiter Ascending, The Avengers: Age of Ultron – May 2015), why can't Hollywood employ the same rationale to the Bible? Are movie studio executives and television networks unable to re-create Noah's story (unlikely), do they have a desire to reinterpret Genesis or a personal hostility towards God and the Bible? You be the judge…

What do you believe about Noah's Ark? Have you ever studied the Gilgamesh Epic, non-biblical rabbinical writings or the beliefs of those who create "supposed" Bible films? Have you researched how Bible characters are portrayed in films/television programs (Muppets from Space, Family Guy etc.) and how they may affect your family's beliefs? Knowledge of these materials is essential in defending the Christian faith, stated Rick Dack of Defending the Bible International (www.defendingthebible.com).
