Leftists criticize ‘Sound of Freedom’ for revealing uncomfortable truths about moral boundaries.
The Film That’s Taking the Box Office by Storm
The film “Sound of Freedom,” which opened on the Fourth of July, has been gaining popularity and has already earned an impressive $85 million at the box office. Despite some theaters causing trouble for filmgoers, more and more theaters are now showing the film due to its growing demand.
While some claim that “Sound of Freedom” is a faith-based film, it is actually a tense thriller based on the real-life exploits of Tim Ballard, a former federal agent and the founder of Operation Underground Railroad. Not only is it an entertaining film, but it also sheds light on the global issue of child sex trafficking and the United States’ role as the top consumer of these crimes.
Despite its important message, the film has faced criticism and resistance from certain critics and media outlets. Some have attacked the film due to alleged connections to conspiracy theories, even though none of these theories are mentioned or implied in the film.
The Message That Needs to Be Heard
One reason for the backlash against “Sound of Freedom” is the uncomfortable subject matter it tackles. It forces viewers to confront the harsh reality of child sex trafficking, a problem that is happening right now. Some people prefer to turn a blind eye to these issues, as it allows them to avoid any moral responsibility.
The Meaning and Truth at the Heart of the Film
Another reason for the criticism is the spiritual aspect of the film. In an interview, Jim Caviezel, one of the film’s stars, referenced a line from the gospel of Matthew that he ad-libbed during filming. This line highlights the severe punishment that should befall those who harm children. It is a reminder of the perverse delight that exists in our culture, which is filled with debauchery and disorder.
However, acknowledging the wrongness of child sex trafficking would also mean questioning certain sexual preferences and activities that have been deemed acceptable. This threatens the sexual and social freedoms that have been fought for over the years. By addressing the horrors of child sex trafficking, we inadvertently challenge the current narrative and open the door to reestablishing traditional moral standards.
“Sound of Freedom” reminds us of the importance of protecting innocence and allowing children to be kids. It exposes the moral compromise that some are willing to make in order to pursue their own desires. This film serves as a powerful reminder that such compromises are never worth it.
It’s time to start the right conversation and reclaim our culture. Watch ”Sound of Freedom” and spread the word about this important film.
