Five Days and Counting!

Five days and counting until the Utah Premier of Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Intolerance, a documentary shining the bright light of day on the religious bigotry still prevalent in America today. Bryan Hall, the director, went coast to coast interviewing both religious bigots and proponents of religious freedom, many of whom have graced your t.v. screens on the news. If you’re LDS, then you know what religious bigotry is all about. But did you know that Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy also suffered this same bigotry when they ran for president?

 Today, we are faced with it once again as the fevered pitch continues to rise around Mitt Romney’s candidacy. Divided We Stand helps all to look in the mirror and realize that America is teetering economically, politically and the divide is growing wider because of religious prejudice. This 57 minute documentary is literally something everyone should see and share with all they know.

You’re invited to the premier in the nation of Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Intolerance in South Jordan, UT (Megaplex 20 at The District) on Tuesday, August 7, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. Tickets may be purchased at www.dividededwestandmovie.com and includes a DVD copy of Divided We Stand and an opportunity to win a raffle prize that night.

Utah Premier of Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Intolerance

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

6:00 AM (MDT) 29 July 2012

Utah Premier of “Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Tolerance” in South Jordan 

Film Addresses Mitt Romney’s Mormon Faith and Presidential Bid

Salt Lake City, UT – July 29, 2012: DWS Productions announces the Utah premier of the documentary film, Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Intolerance, at The District Megaplex in South Jordan, UT at 6:00 p.m. on August 7, 2012. The film, by director Brian Hall, addresses the current issue many Judeo-Christian Americans face with presumptive Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney and his Mormon faith. Hall uses history to show this same mistrust was shared by the American public during Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and John F. Kennedy’s presidential campaigns. All of them, becoming presidents of great accomplishment and strength. 

The issue of religious bigotry, as it relates to the White House and its presidential occupant, has existed in America since the early 18th century. DWS Productions traveled coast to coast interviewing members of several Christian sects who firmly believe Mitt Romney shouldn’t become president due to his membership in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Still, other citizens, citing Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, were just as adamant in defending Romney’s rights guaranteed under the Constitution, wherein it clearly states there will be no religious test for the highest office in the land. 

Interviews with Pastor Robert Jeffers, Dr. Richard Land, FoxNews contributor and columnist, Hugh Hewitt, as well as Judge Roy Moore are featured in the documentary. Each premier attendee will receive a Divided We Stand DVD with their ticket purchase. Noted community activist, author, and talk show host, Candace Salima, will be speaking briefly on religious intolerance in America before the premier showing. 

Tickets for the premier, which includes a DVD copy of Divided We Stand, Rising Above Religious Intolerance, may be purchased online at www.dividedwestandmovie.com.
