But with the Muslim love interest, either they're going to take a fluffy pluralistic approach, or she'll be dramatically forced to choose between her love and her faith, and make the hard choice to stick with her faith.<BR/><BR/>I didn't think about their being nudity in this film, but that is a possibility. It's likely that her "redemption" in becoming a pastor will center around her helping the community, ala Sister Act, and have very little to do with a relationship with Christ.crackers and cheesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15903450123621135348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21082552.post-16778674183376128262008-04-23T12:54:00.000-06:002008-04-23T12:54:00.000-06:00Knee jerk reaction is that this won't include the ...Knee jerk reaction is that this won't include the gospel at all.
