Mel Gibson's "Passion" vs. Portarait of Mary with Elephant Dung
8/27/03 | Self

Posted on 08/27/2003 5:58:41 PM PDT by salbam

Has anyone noticed how the Liberals are getting themselves into a frenzy to censure Mel gibson's move "Passion?" Correct me I'm wrong, but isn't this the same group who savaged Giulani for trying to remove the painting of Mary with elephant dung on her at the Brooklyn Art museum? Where are they now defending the artists right to be free from censure? I guess that right is only worth protecting when Chrisitians are being put down.

You were expecting consistency from lefties?

Many of them are getting in their last licks before the angels throw them in the Lake of Fire. I'm sure some of the ignorant ones will repent, but others have already made their choice.

Matthew 13
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

On second thought, maybe your spelling was on purpose.

Yes they are perfectly consistent. They hate Jesus Christ.

C'mon...didn't they teach you this in college freshman year? You're showing your age. Synopsis: Offending Christians is ok, Christians are not allowed to offend anyone, which they do just by speaking about their religion.

Talk like that will get you branded a hater, in our society.

Don't forget the ever popular piss Christ. Wasn't the dung one done at taxpayers expense? What I wouldn't give to see babs S. floating in offal.

O'Reilly cited a guy who said that just the mention of the word God/god, regardless of whether it references any particular religion, offends him.

No it doesn't. But jumping on a poster for minor spelling errors makes you look like a jerk.

I just sent an e-mail to Hugh Hewitt in which I opined that the Courts have deemed the Ten Commandments unsuited to the court building in Alabama.

But I bet the same commie-left wing radical crackpot judge would welcome a depiction of Mary giving a Monica to Joseph.

What a country!

There was also the infamous "Yo Mamma's Last Supper" which depicts Jesus Christ as a nude black woman.
