“We believe the Bible,” Burnett said. “However, on this project, there’s only one way to approach this. You have to take the Bible as a fact.”

“We have run into people that have thought, believe it or not, that Joan of Arc was Noah’s wife, or that Sodom and Gomorrah lived happily ever after,” Downey said. “And [we] thought, if nothing else, just to set the record straight.”

How they’re doing on that setting the record straight, from one reviewer:

In the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, (yes, I know it’s the same scene I wrote about yesterday) when Lot confronts the mob clamoring to “know” his guests, he offers them his daughters instead saying “Let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them whatever you wish”; behavior which would not win him a Father of the Year award. I would say this sounds awful out of the context of the time, but I’m not sure it could ever sound good. The Bible (film) deals with this uncomfortable bit of scripture by leaving it out.
