    • Goofs
      It is implied in the movie that atheists are as they are because they 'hate god/gods' due to some personal tragedy. But by definition atheists have no belief in any gods so would harbour no such hatred towards an imaginary entity.

    A step backward for Christian films...
    I'm a Christ follower who has watched many Christian films. After several years of low-budget and low quality religious films being made they recently started to get much better but, 'Let There Be Light' just took 2 steps backward. The acting, script and direction were all subpar but, worse than that, the message and delivery were awful. Most Christians won't learn anything new nor enjoy the over-the-top, corny, presentation and non Christians/atheists will be turned off, maybe even offended, at the way atheists are portrayed. Such a let down and waste of a chance to bring an authentic message of Christ to others, In My Humble Opinion!
