The people who made God's Not Dead made another movie full of lies? What?

Given that the Supreme Court made up facts about this (the ruling said it was just a moment of quiet reflection when in reality it was on the fifty yard line, with literal tv cameras, and pressure for the kids to participate or they might not play. I don’t think it is surprising that movie writers would.

I believe it was the lawyers who made up the facts and the SCOTUS justices who accepted them without skepticism. Not that it makes it any better.

Average Joe is not on Wikipedia or IMDB, so it's either waaaay early, or the film community isn't taking it seriously. I can't find a production company (Typically Pure Flix for Evangelical Christian propaganda flims like the GND series). There's a book on Amazon, and I assume it's related.

It might be worth seeing the case that SCOTUS decided this based on false facts, and the lack of due diligence during discovery is conspicuous. But by now we know the Federalist Society is about securing autocracy with theocratic and corporatist features here in the US.
