Damn you people and your ability to see this film before I do. I think it opens Thursday here, but I probably won't see it until a day or so later.
Eh, I guess I'm going to see this movie. I'll have to wait until next week though. Possibly Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. Then I'll see Madagascar 3 to even out the sleepless nights!
1) the edict against false gods predates Christianity, and is present in even pantheistic religions (where false gods are any from another pantheon).
2) Christianity didn't become a political power until the 4th century, so even if it was a reaction to the edict against false gods, they jumped the gun a bit.
I - don't think pre-Christian religions considered other gods 'false'. They did have a habit of demonizing them; or, that is the present belief in many -ology sciences (Near Eastern, Egyptian, Asian, European, etc.)
For instance, the Titans weren't considered false, they were considered outdated, wrong and enemies towards what the younger gods believed. It's like how kids go 'eww' when they're parents like something, be it music, sex, etc.
