Kevin Sorbo has been making the promo rounds lately talking to evangelical or fundie media outlets and of course has been saying kevin sorbo-like things:

Which are either him expressing his actual sentiments or desperately trying to mention as many tribal shibboleths as possible to market to his target demo

WOMAN: You really should go see mom. She's not doing well.

Dementia, from the Latin demens, meaning "not doing well for years".

Against the backdrop of the debates, a series of peripherally related subplots develop. Radisson dates Mina (Cory Oliver), a Christian whom he often belittles in front of his fellow atheist colleagues. Her brother Mark (Dean Cain), a successful businessman and atheist, refuses to visit their mother, who suffers from dementia. Mark's girlfriend, Amy (Trisha LaFache), is a left-wing blogger who writes articles critical of Duck Dynasty. When she is diagnosed with cancer, Mark dumps her. A Muslim student named Ayisha (Hadeel Sittu) secretly converts to Christianity and is disowned by her father when he finds out.

Mark at last visits his mother, only to taunt her; she responds that all of his financial success was given to him by Satan.
So Mark doesn't get hit by any cars at all?

And so he stands on a dock and points his hands in the direction of the Pacific Ocean, defying the setting sun, focusing all his desire on one point in the distance, until…
Well, it has to be seen to be believed, frankly. Giving the title a whole new meaning, one that World War II buffs should have no trouble guessing, the moment is almost too tasteless for words.
