Christian retailer pulls DVDs of 'Blind Side' over profanity, slur

Christian retailer pulls DVDs of 'Blind Side' over profanity, slur


"The Blind Side" was removed from the shelves of one of the nation’s leading Christian retail chains after a pastor complained of profanity and a racial slur used in the film, and the decision has sparked debate within the community.

Christian author Eric Metaxas, who has written scripts for "Veggie Tales," wrote this month that he was “kind of upset” at LifeWay.

“I think it’s insane,” he wrote. “For outsiders looking in, the moral of the story is that ‘there is no pleasing Christians. They always seem to be looking for something to be mad about.’”
