This is really getting to the nitpicking, but hey, it's what the fans do so...
1) Why isn't Serendipity(sp?) allowed to drink alcohol? She isn't a human, but, she isn't going back to heaven either. I though only Angels and the like were prohibited from consuming alcohol.
2) Why doesn't Bethany get that tingle in her bottom from Serendipity? Serendipity has been in God's presence, yet, Rufus only notes that Bartelby and Loki should give off that feeling.
3) In the standard film, we are supposed to feel for Bethany because she can't have children. While no reason is given, I thought it to be a genetic problem. As the cut footage shows though, it was her choice to abort the baby and thus come in contact with unclean surgical instruments. What I mean to say is that how can she hold God accountable for her own choice to about her child. Also, why would she be so bitter twords her ex husband if she knew that her choice would lead to thier divorce, not to mention the years of lying about the miscarriage.
This was a main point of the plot, Bethany's reluctance to do God's will because she was angry at God for taking away her chance to have children. God had nothing to do with it, it was her own choice that lead to her problem.
