I love to see a good movie about atheists, but I am not sure a thriller is really what I want to see. I mean, okay, the preacher is in fact a creepy jealous murderer, isn't that too easy? I would rather have something like a coming of age story, maybe something like a modernized "La Nausée". Faith is in essence amoral, but not because a preacher can be a murderous cuckold, or because of Fred Phelps or whatever. It is bad enough that someone thinks that it is okay that one should be rewarded because he/she worships.
