"Wonder how long it'll take for the Righteous to show up?"

I'm sure they are on their way.....

[I still care]

I am an evangelical Christian and have thoroughly enjoyed all the potter books.

If people can get beyond the surface "fantasy magic", they will find that the deep themes are strongly Christian.

"Exactly, Harry! It is not our abilities that show what we truly are, it is our choices!"

[Sam Cree]

Hey! That's nice to hear.

[Xenalyte]

Sinners, the whole LOT of you!

[CSXT]

Have a good time trashing Christians... one day you'll get a chance to answer to God for such talk.

"You are the handmaiden of Satan, a succubus from the pit of Hell." Any chance I could get that on a bumper sticker?

I think Bill has that posted over Hillary's desk in her Senate office.

Good luck, I think the fake Moody taught him the cruciatus
curse.. 'sposed to hurt like bloody heck before it offs you.

That's witchcraft, dontchaknow. (shudder)

It's a myth. Not there. Same with the wristwatch (which is acredited to both 10 Commandments and Ben Hur). Pick up the DVD you can watch the chariot race over and over, with Heston's commentary in which he addresses the various urban legends about Ben Hur.

[Corin Stormhands]

ecurbh & OT, thought you guys "saw" the car in Ben Hur?

[vin-one]

what?
where did I trash Christians.,

By the way a priest pointed that out to me,
The Bible is full of parables,
in other words stories to make a point
you my friend need to chill out.

Wonder how long it'll take for the Righteous to show up?

It might be a while, most of them are at the Intelligent Design Vs Evolution
foodfight.

But don't you worry, they'll come a runnin' soon.

The urban legend on the car is that you can see it outside the arena, but you can't see outside the arena it's fully encircled.

[Corin Stormhands]

Okey-doke. I haven't seen it (not have I looked for it). Thot the guys I pinged have.

[ColdSteelTalon]

If magic is potrayed as fun in any way. It is Satanic. All magic whether used for Good or evil purposes is from the same source.

The use of potions is a form of sorcery. For example.

A hillary campaign bumper sticker? It would read better if it said:

"I am the handmaiden of Satan, a succubus from the pit of Hell

"one day you'll get a chance to answer to God for such talk."

You too, you know.

[ecurbh]

Nope, never seen it, no matter how hard I look for it. But I did see the car in the cornfield scene in The Fellowship of the Ring. Only in the theatrical version, though. They removed it from the Extended Edition.

[Servant of the Nine]

Thanks to repeated viewings of The Ten Commandments, I'm trying to figure out if Moses did indeed wear a wristwatch.

Yeah, a gold Rolex "Patriarch"
