If you haven't seen the movie, I can't really recommend the whole movie because it has some very questionable sections. However, there is an interesting dialogue about using Brawndo (think Gatorade) on plants. Here is the YouTube of that section. It is reminiscent of talking with SDAs about the Sabbath, where you only here the same couple responses, no matter how many times or how well you address those responses. You know, "if you love me, keep my commandments", "why would only 9 of the 10 commandments apply" and "Sabbath was made for man" Bskillet Registered user Username: Bskillet Post Number: 1041 Registered: 8-2008 Posted on Saturday, November 23, 2013 - 7:30 am:        One of my favorite movies. And yes, it is just like SDA's Sabbath arguments.
