****Has anyone ever said that Tarentino was nuts?**** To my knowledge -- only his Psychiatrist. Don't get me wrong, I love his movies. From Reservoir Dogs to Kill Bill I & II. Heck I must have seen both Kill Bill's 20 times each. And Pulp Fiction a 'gazillion' times. IMO the guy is a near genius, but I don't think his elevator goes all the way up. ;-)

=======================

While I agree with you, my point was that Mel is under attack at all times, though some of it was admittedly self inflicted, I have never seen Tarentino under such attacks even though the choice of genres are comparable, but one is given a pass and the other is not.

The difference? Mel is a Christian.

Those of us who call ourselves Christians should not fall for this double standard.

He's not just a Christian, he is a Roman Catholic which also makes him a target from a few bigots.

BINGO!

Remember all shiite threw at him by the 'jewish community' before Passion Of The Christ was even released or a trailer shown (maybe even while still in production, can't recall that part.) That was outright religious BIGOTRY, PREJUDICE and HATE.

Unfortunately Christians (and Catholics) don't have any storm trooper org like the ADL scrounging around for every perceived slight and then to attack in high dudgeon with bullshit accusations on every news show they can get their puss on to play their role as perpetual victim. (run on sentence rant - off)
