I've never been impressed with Cameron's movies, anyway ... they tend to get hyped, people tell me I'm going to love them, then I endure "True Lies" or "Terminator." Bah! (I couldn't make it through "Titanic.") But, seriously ... why would we want to support him? Well said. I’m glad I’m not the only one who remembers this.

We have nothing to fear by documentaries like Cameron's, (Truth is a Living Person - He's alive!) so why not bless him instead? Build friendships that give a foundation for a dialogue. As for Avatar, I think the real culprit was greed and imperialism (in this film expressed as 'we can take what we want') which is a passion that is at the core of the sinful heart. (lust of the eyes, pride of heart, etc.) I have no problem with him making *that* the bad guy. The enemy in the film is not presented to be technology as much as technology that is used to dominate another race, and is used to destroy creation. As it has been said, how one handles something says a lot about what they think of its creator. How does one love an enemy or bless those who persecute?
