Moses Was "Barbaric" and "Schizophrenic" Says Christian Bale, Star of New "Exodus" Movie

Mark Andrews : Oct 29, 2014  Charisma News

"To be so extreme as to call him one of the most barbaric people in history—that sounds like [Bale's] going out of his way to distance himself from the very people you'd think he wants to appeal to. It tells me that he's worried about Hollywood peer approval while looking down on the public, because he certainly doesn't want to be associated with the religious..." -Brian Godawa

(Hollywood, CA)—Actor Christian Bale may have shot himself in the foot—along with dampening public enthusiasm for the upcoming film in which he stars, "Exodus: Gods and Kings"—by saying that he considers Moses "barbaric" and "likely schizophrenic." (Photo via Charisma News)

Bale, who gained plaudits for his portrayal of Batman in three films, made the comments in front of a group of international reporters last month at the Four Seasons hotel in Los Angeles.

"I think the man was likely schizophrenic and was one of the most barbaric individuals that I ever read about in my life," Bale said about Moses.

Bloggers and others, many of whom had been cautiously enthusiastic about the movie, have been digesting them ever since, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"It's accurate to portray Moses as an imperfect hero, so Christians won't take issue with that," said Christian writer Brian Godawa. "But to be so extreme as to call him one of the most barbaric people in history—that sounds like he's going out of his way to distance himself from the very people you'd think he wants to appeal to. It tells me that he's worried about Hollywood peer approval while looking down on the public, because he certainly doesn't want to be associated with the religious or the far right."
