A Special Christmas Message from the Compass Editor . . .

Letter from the Editor
Volume 1 Issue 3 December 2006

Fellow Trailblazers,

Some of you may have read the two different reviews of Apocalypto I placed in the previous issue of the Compass. (For those of you who haven't they will be in this issue.) I myself, will not see the movie. The R rating it received seems a little harsh for me. For a girl who sobbed her way through the Passion, I can see no logical reason for me to see Apocalypto. However, while watching the trailer, I noticed something familiar. There is a scene that shows one of the Mayan priests standing on top one of their pyramids. As I watched, I was reminded of the Aztec pyramids Trailblazers visited when they went to Mexico. There are many similarities between the Aztec and Mayan cultures. For those of you who do decide to see Apocalypto, try to see this comparison. Just think, that some of you actually walked the same path walked by the prisoners who where to be sacrificed. It may be hard, it may be easy, but if you are able to see the comparison, you will be able to see with your own eyes what horrible sins took place on those pyramids. Just a thought I wanted to share with you.

God Bless You And Those Near To You This New Year!!
