So. true. Though I still want to marry him.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
From a NY Times article with the headline "New for Conservative Christians: Film Reviews, Not Protests."
Like their secular counterparts, Christian critics are diverse in their judgments. Most laud the semi-allegorical "Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," based on the spiritually infused novels by C. S. Lewis, as well as tales of salvation like "The Shawshank Redemption," "The Last Samurai" or the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, which many pastors cite in sermons. But many also praise wholesome fluff like "Serenity" or serious fare like "2001: A Space Odyssey," which appears on the Vatican's 1995 list of 45 great films for its blend of "science fiction and metaphysical poetry."
"Wholesome fluff"?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Well, Mal did mention the Operative's Dear and Fluffy Lord.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I always like to think Conservatives Christians think raping murderers are wholesome fluff. Well, it says so in the NY Times so must be true. If only one of the Reavers had been homosexual, then it'd be less wholesome.

Good thing Inara didn't have any female clients in the movie, I guess.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'm thinking Inara's profession wasn't featured enough in the movie to ping the ultracon's paranoia about sex.

With male clients she can be a wholesome fluffer.

Isn't there near female/female kissing in a deleted scene? Damn, the outrage was a near miss.

Yes, at the Companion training center.

What is even happening?
It's the NYTimes calling it wholesome fluff, not the Christian reviewers. I've actually seen some good, Christian reviews on Serenity, and plenty of non-religious flicks.
