Another, uneducated, Hollywood film person trying to make himself more important than he really is......

Loved the book.

The movie was a ratty kids play compared to the book.

Jesus knows who He is and who His Father is. This garbage is nothing new. It is the same old antichrist hooey that was used by the (religious) enemies of Christ at the time of his death and before. You would think that in this age of mass fruitcakism on the Internet, demonized kooks could come up with something original, like a UFO scheme that reveals all humans to be reincarnated dogs from Zeta ubetcha. Their god could be a reincarnated body crab from an alternate universe.

Since mohammad only raped 6 year olds, guess he had no children and not worth a movie for this guy.

Just another leftist attack on the values and beliefs of this country. It is part of their overall plan to undermine the strengths of America in order to destroy it.

We have lionized Maya Angelou for poetry that doesn’t rhyme, and artists for art that is not art. In fact, as usual, they have conned the American people into paying for it. Rap music is not music even if it does have a beat. It is like dancing to african drums.

It is all part of the advancement of moral and intellectual relativism where nothing is right or wrong, good or bad. An anything goes society loses cohesion and is easier to destroy.

When Paul dies, the coroner should dress as a Centurion and verify his death by using a spear to pierce his......nevermind.....

I have a feeling the epilogue to Paul's biography will have him residing in an especially warm place being raped by Roman soldiers who crucified Jesus.

Let us remember, “Because, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,” (Romans 1:21-22).

Jesus was probably the son of Mary and a Roman soldier who raped her during the Jewish uprising in Galilee

I don't believe that. There's lots of evidence to the contrary. They found some writings...

Director Paul Verhoeven discusses the importance of Christ's life on film

"I ask Verhoeven if he believes in the Resurrection. "I believe in the Resurrection of the Word," he says. "I believe the disciples felt that Jesus was with them again. The [story of the] fingers in the wound I doubt, but I think the disciples felt a strong force around them, though the Church has postulated Jesus resurrected in body and came back. The Jesus Seminar has clearly stated that Jesus was buried and his body was decomposed."

Raised a Catholic, I'd been trained to believe that Jesus went to the cross in measured steps, fully aware of where he was heading. But after reading histories of the bureaucratic hot-potato game the various Judean authorities played with the case of Jesus, the Crucifixion seems more like a ghastly mistake on behalf of three parties: the Romans, the Jews, and Jesus himself.

"The Jesus Seminar describes it as 'a car accident,'" Verhoeven says. "My guess is that Jesus was a Jewish cynic, witty and sharp, but then he had a change of mind and believed that the Kingdom of God was approaching. Remember that he was crucified for being king of the Jews, as a crown pretender...

" The message of Jesus is the way he lived. That he ultimately was killed was something that just happened. By seeing it as a sacrifice we diminish the importance of what he's thinking. Putting the Cross and the Resurrection at the heart of the story has diminished the importance of Jesus's message..."

ROTFLOL! He sounds like a sophomore in high school who hasn't even read the Cliff Notes, let alone the original source.

What unspeakable terror this degenerate will experience when he kneels in front of the risen Christ on that day as judgment of eternal damnation is passed. Horrible.

Mr.Verhoeven, you’re wrong and you’re in BIG trouble unless you repent and get things right with the Lord. “Just as a man is detined to die once, and after that to face judgment,..” Hebrews 9:27

Soldier of Orange was a terrific movie. It’s the only film of his I liked.

I think Paul Verhoeven’s mind has been raped by a deceiving spirit.

He needs to find an alter quick, get on his knees and beg the Lord for forgiveness and healing.

It will do him and everyone he comes in contact with, some good.

This isn’t a terribly new theory.

Only about 2000 years old is all.

You’d think they could at least get some new material, and beyond that, to quit pretending that this idea is something new that they’ve suddenly realized.

One of the worst movies ever made.

Basic Instinct was pretty awful too.

This sounds familiar to me:

12When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, 13telling them, "You are to say, 'His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.' 14If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble." 15So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day. - Matthew 28:12-15

I believe that more lies have been told about Jesus than have been told about any other person.
