Has Anyone Watched CNN's Special " God's Warriors " Parts 1 and 2 ?

Question

What's your opinion as to how it's being presented ?


I've watched Parts 1 and 2 to learn and to see if it would contain bias . It most certainly is biased but I wonder how many people noticed ?

Part 1 was about Jews. . . Part 2 was about Muslims(very biased on Amampour's behalf). . . Part 3 is about Christians and that one is on tonight .

Amampour said that there are "only a few" , "a couple" , "Very small minority". . of radical islamists . Which is factually incorrect. . . she knows it . . . we know it. . . and that is a total lie . Then she seemed to focus on the muslims who are rational , while focusing on radical Jews in part 1 .
FYI people , all muslim research shows that 10-15% of them support the 'Radical Islamists' / Terrorists . And 10-15% of 1.3 Billion Muslims is not 'A few' , 'a couple' , or a 'very small minority' . It's over 150 Million and worse yet , another 25-40% of the other Muslims sympathize and are willing to help Radical Islamists . Attempting to diminish the threat is not only a lie , it's dangerous .

Answer 1

I didn't watch them however if these were on fox news you would have said there were not biased you know you would have.

I just like causing trouble.

Answer 2

Well it was funny they talked like only one girl was stoned to death, in Iran for adultry, didn't mention burying homosexuals alive or executing women in Saudia Arabia for being witches last year. Who doesn't want a religion like that taking over their country? A religion deserves the same tolerance it shows for others, and Amampour's favorite has been trying to destroy all others and either destroy or ursurp the holy sites of others, and of course, rule the world. Religions that kill peope are nothing more than stone age cults, period.

Answer 3

It seems most are missing the basic point of this series. What Amampour is trying to say is that the fundamentalist sects of all three religions have closed minded tendencies rooted in violence. Those who think that she is biased for or against anything is using their own bias to make that judgment.

"Let he who is without sin..."

Answer 4

Yes I taped while watching the 1&2 last night, will do the same tonight for the real goodie....Christians.

I thought 1&2 were quite good and learned a lot of things, and will save the tapes for posterity.

Answer 5

I watched and enjoyed both of them and I hoping to watch the last episode tonight when I get home from work. I did not perceive any sort of bias with both episodes. I think Amampour presented both sides brilliantly. What struck a chord with me is the justification of violence in the name of God. This warped point of view should be a wake up call to everyone.

Answer 6

Father God Almighty, It is with love and grace that we humbly approach the Altar of God in the Name of Jesus. Father we ask that You will bless EyeLoveJesus with a healing from the sickness of pneumonia which attacks her body as we speak. Father we say Thank You in advance for the Miracles that You will do and already have started in the Mercifully Awesome Name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

Answer 7

I did my best to watch it. Part 1 and Part 2.

Her bias was over the top.

I would recommend the film for a class on media bias to have the students point out the comments she made.

I am not looking forward tonight and sitting watch it.

I am going to because I want to see what she puts out about Christianity.

Answer 8

heres the analysis:
jews = bad
christians = bad
mooselemms= good
you just know thats what it will be coming from cnn
I loved the part about " the magic imam "
who is supposed to pop up like the pillsbury doughboy when the west disolves
what a pagan bunch of bozos...

Answer 9

I saw the Muslim edition last night.

I agree that it did seem kind of biased.

Off camera, I bet that it's a different story.

But, none of them seemed bent on world domination. Most just wanted Western influence out of their lives. Can you blame them?

They view Western influence in much the same way that Americans view illegal immigrants from Mexico.

Answer 10

The common pursuit of all humans is the pursuit of power, the desire to possess the ability to control one's circumstances and destiny. While this may shock you and cause you to go into denial, the reality is that the basic desire in every human heart is power.

The term power here, does not refer to the tyrannical,oppressive,dictatorial control of people, but rather the ability to control one's own circumstances and environment. It is this lack of control over our daily lives,situations, and circumstances that makes us feel so helpless and live as victims of life. For most of us life is simply a daily struggle as we try to stay afloat in a sea of uncertainty and pressure so all sorts. At the same time we wrestle with a sense of dignified slavery to the institutions of our societies.

The program "God's Warriors" presented by Christiane Amanpour so far has revealed these deep desire in the heart of both Jews and Muslims. And I believe by the time she finishes off with the Christian Warriors, you can well see that the Christians also seek this very power to control their circumstances.

Over the past 6,000 years mankind has tried and continues to try to control and tame the environment through the inventions of primitive and modern instruments. Yet no matter how far man thinks he has progressed, the ability to achieve dominion and power over life and death on earth still eludes him. In fact, in light of all the uncontrollable social ills, health epidemics, military conflicts,political unrest, economic uncertainties, religious clashes,and destruction of the environment, it seems as if man's advancement is an evolution, backward in time.

This human failure to achieve control and mastery over his environment and circumstances has left him with a deep desire for a brand new world. The human spirit longs for a world he can control where circumstances are at the mercy of his will. This is the greatest human desire. This is also the source and motivation of religious and spiritual development and practice. In every religion we discover the component that promises power to control circumstances and even death itself. This explains why the deep dark secret practices of witchcraft and spirit ism are so attractive to millions; they promise power over people and circumstances.

To human spirit is possessed by this desire to dominate,rule and control the personal private world and the environment. To understand this desire for power, it is necessary to understand the original purpose and design of mankind and the assignment for which he was created.

Come read day after day to find out how you can access this power from your Creator.
