@@thecianinator Sorry, it's been too long since I've seen it to remember many specifics, but it starts with the idea that God's very existence is threatened by the logical trap contained in some Catholic dogma. God taking time off to play skeeball in a New Jersey arcade is just frosting on the cake.

[@TrulyMadlyShallowly]

@@jimlewis3306 The dogma itself - angels going against the word of God causing the end of Earth, because the word of God is truth - is just so. Catholic. The rules and beliefs of Catholicism can be really awkward, partly because they can be declared by leaders of the faith and are then considered Truth. The history of Limbo is a good example. Need a way out of the unfairness of unbaptized kids not going to heaven (a consequence of beliefs around baptism)? Hey pronto, invent Limbo. The dilemma that necessitated Limbo is a direct result of Catholic dogma and similar to the one presented in this film.

SirBlot 2 angels are thrown out of heaven and go on a quest to find a loophole to get back into heaven. That loophole would have the side effect of destroying the world. Jay and Silent Bob are mostly just along for the ride, the hero of the story is a blood decedent of Jesus who has to find a way to stop them. Aside from some mild language there's nothing anti-religious about the film and it was kind of silly for any religious group to be protesting it. In the end it's fairly clear that there's actually a bit of a pro-christian, or at least pro-god vibe to the entire film that basically just says "hey there's nothing wrong with choosing god as long as you aren't using it as an excuse to hurt other people". But for some reason people took offense to the jokey nature of the presentation, I know some people were highly offended by the image of "buddy christ" which was just a friendly modern version of a Jesus statue where he's pointing at you and giving a thumbs up. Some people will take offense to anything, even if you are just implying that God has a sense of humor.
