"Oh, I just noticed your tagline. I guess you won't bother seeing Mel Gibson's "The Passion"."

Why would you guess that? Religion has played an enormous part in history. I plan on seeing the film on opening day, as I have done with many films featuring religious themes.

Do not mistake atheism for ignorance. Most atheists, you will find, have a very firm grounding in various religions. It's a mistake to believe that an atheist does not know your religion's scriptures.

The Passion of Christ is a theme that has been explored in art for hundreds of years. How could someone interested in the effects of religion on society fail to see this film?

Yes. For even the Devil can quote scripture, as it is written when Satan used the Word to try to tempt Christ. You are familiar with that, aren't you? Think hard before replying.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  No....you didn't THINK about what I said. Take a minute and reread it, before moving to the next post.
