Absolutely! Every floundering Hollywood type should exploit Christianity to advance themselves. The Bible is full of tragedy and sacrifice so there should be no shortage of projects. Maybe Tom Cruise and John Travolta can team up for a Scientologist view of the resurection -- that would rock! :up:
You're not squeamish because you're too busy handing out your business cards to the victims! BTW, I've not seen the movie as it was sold out all day last Saturday & Sunday. Everyone I know who has seen it has told me the same thing- the movie is beautifully made, and that they're not "over it" yet. Many of you who won't see it because you are not believers won't read the Bible either. The Passion may well become the biggest movie in history. FWIW, the Bible is the best-selling book in history. Not another book even comes close. The way I figure it, there must be something to it if so many folks have read it and dedicated their lives to it.
Hey Rodger, speaking of squeemish, were you there when your kids were born? With my son it looked like someone cleaned a deer in there...
Yeah, but the average man that pushes his daughter out of the way of a bus, knowing he'll get killed merits an article in the middle of the local paper. With this guy, he gets to have a whole religion start up over it all....... ...but yes, I agree with you at the end of the day.
I was there but very light headed!! Had to sit down a lot and made sure that my view of the ugly stuff was obstructed. Its weird, but bloody emegencies don't get to me - it must be the adrenilin (SP?).
You know, last night I was thinking what you said about any one of us dying for our loved ones and it occured to me that Jesus died for those that hated him too. Not only that, but forgave them during the process. I can't say I if I would be willing to do that. Even if I did, I would NOT want a religion started over me!
Roger, this is the Passion thread. Gay Marriage is one thread down. Please be a little more attentive in the future.
Apologies to all re the above. I got confused and posted something that belongs on the German Porn BBS. Once again, especially to Mr. Mood, his family and his dates, I utterly and profoundly apolgize.
And I can win Daytona with a 30-lap head start. Give Harry Potter another 2000 years, and let's have this conversation again.
