Have you guys heard about this new movie directed by Mel Gibson? It looks kind of interesting for a Jesus/Religeous film. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, but i do know "jezus christ superstar" |
||||||||
|
|

I dont know how anyone could take christianity seriously. its only 2000 years old. free masonry has existed in its root form for almost 7000 years. it speaks well to say "it has served us well, this myth of christ"... pretty much what im saying is god, christian or not probably exists, if you dont think so thats cool, but what I mean is like uh.... ya... its just a book, have faith in what you know in your heart. |

Okay, I agree with the God exist part, but I'm talking about the movie. |
||||||||
|

Labium Sweat: oh I know dood thats cool, I read about the movie actually just recently it does look interesting for sure. Id see it with an open mind defenitly. I heard it got some flak for being somewhat controversial? |
||||||||

any publicity is good publicity, the more buzz the better in the end, it's just a movie, one I won't see anyway, so yeah, talk amongst yourselves |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How come you won't see it? You think it looks that bad? |
||||||||

The Last Temptation of Christ was marvellous. I cannot see how a religious movie could top it, but I'm really looking forward to Mel's epic. I just feel the "epicness" of the movie will shine over it. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I'm very tempted to go, but I'm afraid I just wouldn't be able to contain my urges. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what urges?... sexual? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Y'know, I have that Christocentric fetish |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Urges? Whadda ya gonna do, whip it out and whack it during a religeous movie? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well Monica Belluci is in the movie ;-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah that was what he wanted to do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
True... shes the only thing I even remember about Matrix 2. Did you see her in that Italian movie Malena? Damn, she showed bush and everything in that movie. |
||||||||

Its been the subject of accusations of anti-semitism. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but not by anyone who has actually seen the movie. |
||||||||
|

Jesus did it for the chicks! |

Apparently all the dialogue is in some alien language. |

aramaic |

|
|
any movie done on the subject will be controversial. SOMEONE out there is gonna be pissed about something. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, thats true. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
This is the one the pope saw and was moved by isn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

despite my personal interest in the subject matter i'm not sure that mel gibson would be the person i'd like to see translating the story to film. then again, i can't think of who i'd like to see behind the camera... not to step on any toes here, but reflex raises some interesting points (though i'm not so sure about the validity of his statements about freemasonry). despite statements attributed to jesus in the new testament, i don't believe that he founded the christian religion, and believe also that he warned very explicitly against joining with an authoritarian worship organization, a warning which has been excised from orthodox bibles. jesus and his teachings are distinct from the doctrine of orthodox christianity. you need not be an orthodox christian to benefit from his wisdom. |

I'll probably go see it with a Catholic friend so we can have some interesting discussions and maybe come to blows! :D Seriously though, it looks like an interesting flick. I'm an atheist but the New Testament is a pretty good yarn. |

Christianity existed for only 2000 years old... If you look at it as an offshoot of Judaism, then yea. If you look at the Old Testament and the New Testament as one continuous document, then no. Christianity is just the next progression of a religion that starts at the beginning of time and the Judaisers are those who decided to get off the train and start their own track when God said this train keeps on going. |

Supposedly Gibson is a Catholic, although not Roman Catholic I think it is some sort of branch off reform movement. As far as anti-semitism in Christianity Catholocism has the worst track record. It is well documented that The RCC gave support to Hitler as well as provided shelter to Nazi war criminals after WWII. This doesn't mean that Gibson is anti-semitic and I have not seen the film although it sounds interesting either way. |

That is a somewhat popular idea among critics of Christianity, this idea that the teachings of Jesus and the teachings of Paul are not in harmony with one another. I would be interested in discussing this with you sometime. |
