This Disney Fails To Delight

** When you buy products through the links on our site, we may earn a commission that supports NRA's mission to protect, preserve and defend the Second Amendment. **

Another film foray comes out with the Disney name attached, but will likely have none of the timeless charms you’d associate with the Magic Kingdom. Instead, it appears to be an anti-gun finger-wag from a multi-millionaire: Grandniece Abigail Disney brings us Pastor Rob Schenck in her documentary The Armor of Light

Ms. Disney’s own description of the project pretty much says it all: “I’ve spent most of the past two years making a documentary about a leading evangelical Christian minister who is strongly questioning the close ties between his religion and the NRA. (The film) shows how Rob Schenck, who operates an influential ministry on Capitol Hill in Washington, has begun asking whether pro-life Christians can also be pro-gun.”  

Who is Ms. Disney, Reuters or even Reverend Schenck to say “Jesus wouldn’t join the NRA?” This is perilously close to a non-trivial thing called blasphemy if you read the rest of your Bible.
