The new "Lone Ranger" film has been a critical and box office disappointment, but the fact that the Indian character "Tonto" is not a Christian has upset some Christian conservatives.

Dr. Ted Baehr of the Christian Film and Television Coalition is also upset that the U.S. is also upset that the U.S. government is portrayed as "bad" and the army is shown killing Indians, which is historically accurate. http://newsok.com/christians-angry-that-tonto-is-pagan-in-lone-ranger-

Idiots. Baehr came out with both fists swinging, angry that The Lone Ranger dared to show white people killing Native Americans, that businessmen are ruthless, and that natives were, as he termed it, “pagans.”

Now, the native belief system is many things, but it is absolutely not “pagan.” In the movie, Tonto is portrayed as a member of the Comanche, by Comanche tribesman Johnny Depp. While the portrayal is not a Christian faith, nor is it pagan.

It's entitled "'Lone Ranger' Film 'Pagan,' 'Anti-Christian,' Betrayal of Hero's Character, Say Reviewers", but that's a lie, as only one "reviewer," Baehr, called it "pagan". The other one mentioned (also from a Christian source, "Focus on the Family") "hesitated to call the film "pagan." Noting the prominence of Tanto's perspective, he said, "you see a great deal more spiritism, animism, magic, and portent in everything he sees and does. Spiritism is not an unusual thing to see in movies these days – magical elements that don't exactly jive with Christianity," he argued.

From what I've seen of the reviews, there are negatives mentioned with regard to many aspects of it. But trust the ultra-religious to try and complain about it being something it's not.
