Dumbest take I've ever seen was somebody calling the Prince of Egypt movie "religious propaganda" - which sure is a funny way to spell "animated adaptation of one of the most important and well known stories of our civilization."
What part of the movie could even REMOTELY be considered propaganda? Seriously. Is the definition of propaganda 'anything presenting something I personally disaprove of under a positive light'? Is it "religious propaganda" because the story operates under the assumption that God is real (which, and it might come as a shock, is a belief shared by hundreds of millions of people)??
"Religious propaganda" smh. The goal of propaganda is to promote an ideology. The goal of Prince of Egypt is not to push religion onto non religious people - they're even not the target audience! Prince of Egypt exists to retell a beautiful story beloved by millions of people to those same people who love it, and their children. Also, Prince of Egypt doesn't deal with religion, it deals with faith, and those two concepts are distinct. They brought in Jewish, Christian and Muslims scholars to get the film right btw - which of those three very separate religions is the film being propaganda for exactly?
