Call Us Crazy, but We See a Buddy Movie Here

"What women want" was man-hating feminist propaganda with the usual obligitory SOFT PORN. It was Hollywood tripe.

Anyone who has "kinship" with Michael Moore saying he makes some "salient points" is NO conservative. Gibson and his buddy are both movie people who wallow in the leftist cesspool that is Hollywood.

I know about latin mass catholics, and have several friends who attend society of Pius X churches, including one friend who is openly pro-abort (trads can easily be as liberal as Vatican II catholics).

[SubMareener]

My take on "What Women Want", and I saw it in the theater with Mrs. Submareener, was that it was a light hearted farcical/romantic comedy that was pretty even in taking shots at the foibles of both men and women.

Message of "what women want": If men knew what liberal NYC Madison Ave. feminists thought, they wouldn't be such pigs.

Did Mrs. SubMareener enjoy the nude sex-scenes by Gibson playing a man obsessed with getting women half his age and to whom he isn't married into the sack? I bet Michael Moore did.

[SubMareener]

Be very careful. What if I told you Mrs. Submareener is half my age, and there was a time when we weren't married?

LOL... Well, at least you made an honest woman of her!

"Mel doesn't [recognize] the pope."

You've got your hat on backwards. It the Catholic Church, approved by the Chinese Communist government, that doesn't recognize the Holy See, and yet the pope recognizes them. Now that IS backasswards.

Further, it is not forbidden by the pope to attend a Tridentine ( Latin ) Holy Mass. It had been the universally approved rite of the One True Church for the past seven hundred years - until the V2 socialists turned Catholicism on it head and created the New Order Mass - which is driving the faithful out of the Church throughout the world.

Further, observing and revering pre-1962 Sacred Dogma and Traditions is an obligation for every Roman Catholic.

You may recall it was Gibson who sought and received approval from the Vatican, before the release of The Passion of The Christ. Initially, two cardinals gave it a thumbs-up, and then tried to backtrack on their comments. The pope finally saw the film making the comment "....it is as it was....".

It would be appropriate to formally withdraw your uninformed comment, but I won't hold my breath. 'I'm sorry' isn't in the lexicon of most FReepers.

" The reason they moved is because his father protested the Vietnam war."

Source?

Mel Gibson is a sedevacantist. Look it up http://www.cmri.org/sedevac.htm

He does not recognize the second Vatican Council of 1962-5. http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=927

And Mel's Father did not support Vietnam and moved his family to Australia.

Now, what was that you were saying? "I'm sorry isn't the lexicon of most Freepers?"
Well maybe you should add it to your vocabulary, because you owe me one. Nice try, but you only succeeded in making yourself look foolish. and Mean.

[Robert Drobot]

"Mel Gibson is a sedevacantist.

When did Gibson make that declaration and or when did the pope make this declaration? Lacking that fact, by what authority do you come to judge Gibson a sedevacantist?

[LauraleeBraswell]

Did you read the article?

Someone owes me a big SORRY!

[Robert Drobot]

Where in your article does it mention Mel Gibson?

[Robert Drobot]

Please respond to my Post # 29.

[LauraleeBraswell]

Post 29-
""When did Gibson make that declaration and or when did the pope make this declaration? Lacking that fact, by what authority do you come to judge Gibson a sedevacantist?""

Your Question is a Fallacy
Declaration: An explicit, formal announcement, either oral or written

The pope does NOT have to make A DECLARATION for Mel Gibson to be a sedevacantist.

Mel Gibson's actions, quotes pre the Passion of the Christ, quotes after the Passion, all constitute nothing else but Sedevangism.

Stop beating around the bush. It's all there.

Please don't try to make a fool of me again.

You owe me an apology.

[Robert Drobot]

Because Mel Gibson has not announced he "....doesn't recognize the pope" (your words), I have no need to withdraw my question to you. While you have judged him a so, doesn't make it so. Until then, my Post # 9 requires no apology.

Your generous source contributions to this thread are absent any declaration from Gibson to support your contention. It should not be necessary to remind you that it was Mel Gibson who sought and received Vatican acknowledgement of his film. Certainly, this act in itself belies any contrary suggestion about his submission to the Holy See.

[LauraleeBraswell]

Then give me some sources that state to the contrary. Give me some sources that DISPROVE that Mel Gibson is a Sedevengelist.

Gibson does not recognize the pope religiously.


My GOD, THE FACTS ARE ALL THERE! IN THE SOURCES I GAVE YOU!

Here are some of the facts JUST SOME- Gibson has Described the pope as "A Wolf in Sheep's clothing" PRE PASSION. Mel Gibson has also Described himself as a "Traditional Catholic" Traditional Catholic: a NICE term for Sedevangism.

I can only speculate that Mel Gibson's meeting with the pope most probably had to do with seeking public approval for THE PASSION.

It would be appropriate OF YOU to formally withdraw your uninformed comment.

'I'm sorry' isn't in the lexicon of most FReepers.
( It is for the polite ones ) You know what, Just don't respond. If you do I'll take two hours and write you an ESSAY complete in MLA style explaining WHY Mel Gibson is a Sedevanglist. Or you could say that your are sorry.....

Judge not, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? --- Matthew 7:1-4
