PG Rating for Christian Theme

from Capital Resourse Institute:

The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) has decided that the movie Facing the Giants, produced by a Baptist church in Atlanta and scheduled to be released nationwide in theaters this fall, should be rated PG for being “too religious.”

In Facing the Giants a losing football team is turned around after the coach turns to God. There is no sex, violence, or raw language in the movie, which would typically warrant a PG rating. Instead, the movie is rated PG because of its Christian message – the Gospel is mentioned and the coach has several conversations about Christ.
