    For those who have not heard the truth, there is finally been something done about the so called self-proclaimed "King of the Jews",one Jesus, son of Joseph a carpenter from Nazareth. This Jesus has for 3 years been wandering about the Holy Land professing his blasphemous anti-Mosaic Law clatter. The man is a threat to the social order, NO MORE! He was observed closely by our wonderful priests of the temple recently in many heretical public meetings, claiming to be the Son of the true and living God! An end has finally come to all the distracting attention this man...

    Last night on TV, across the bottom of the screen was a "crawl" thread for the election in the deep south Fl. Al. etc. I noticed the "facts" as they walked by the bottom of the set. One particular thing jumped out at me .... it said... Voter turn out estimated at 20% . So here is what I deduce from all the hype' by the liberal media "elite". They say Kerry has "taken" so and so state, or Kerry "won" in California, etc. But here is the truth... Let us assume (?) the nation is split 50% & 50%...
  • Movie buffs predict Passion to hit over $43 Million by for weekend grosses

    From mid weekend predictions it appears the Passion of the Christ movie will gross over $42.663 million. Current numbers are a bit confusing, there are totals, predicted average totals and current grosses. But these figures may be close. Friday's daily totals were $22 Million in ticket sales Weekend estimate of Passion grosses is *$65.047 mill Currently it is ranked number ONE in front of "50 Dates"- which totaled $11.847 million for mid weekend sales.. From friday's numbers ,the sum of all other movie ticket sales in the USA was less than $14 million- compared to Passion's $22 plus million. *These...
  • Man Buys 6,000 "Passion" tickets

    Perhaps no one person aside from Mel Gibson himself has made a more noteworthy effort to promote "The Passion of The Christ" than a Texas couple who purchased 6,000 tickets to the film and gave them away to the community. Arch Bonnema, a member of the Dallas-area Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, happened to be invited to a preview of The Passion when a friend had to back out at the last minute. The film had such an impact on him that he wanted to share it with as many people as possible. "I have been a Christian all of...

    Internet movie data base (IMDB) ^ | 2-27-04 | Lew Irwin
    the film may have benefited from the recent controversy that was ignited when several Jewish leaders warned that it could incite anti-Semitism by blaming the Jews for Christ's death. Instead, they noted, the movie appeared to exploit a more insidious form of anti-Semitism as "the film the Jews didn't want you to see."

    I doubt if any one sets out to join themselves to a church that is publicly entrenched in child molestation. Then there is the realization that some times things happen. It's called bad luck or just fate. Yet I have to ask myself at what point do i have to cut my losses & get the hell out!

    Roy Horn, one half of the illusionist team Siegfried & Roy, was on a ventilator, heavily medicated but able to respond to voices and touch, an official with MGM Mirage Resort said, after being attacked by one of his tigers during a nightly show. Halfway into Friday night's performance, Horn appeared alone on stage with the tiger and told the crowd the animal was making its debut in the show — a claim hotel officials said was part of the act. The tiger, which weighs about 600 pounds, then lunged at Horn, who tried to beat the animal off with...
