For Those of You on Your Way to Church This Morning...

[jhale667]

You really ARE a know-nothing douche sometimes...

Scripture may be a lot of things, but "logical" isn't one of them.

No he's not, and Jesus has nothing to do with catholicism...

Even as a recovering Catholic I'm going on record as saying you're an ignorant asshat for saying that. Did your church tell you that before or after the snake-handling, btw?

And you call yourself a "Christian".

Making films is expensive. If he doesn't make money he can't make any more films.

Everything I have seen and read is that his latest movie is great.

Well Sesh, word on the street is that the "dedicated servant" has a few euros left over after his filming expenses.

Moore has his faults, in the past he has over egged stuff in my opinion unnecessarily which gives ammo to his critics. I think he's doing that less now though and the bottom line is that he creates something entertaining and usually informative with his films whereas the hundreds of millionaire hedge fund gamblers earn ten times more creating nothing.

Moore's biggest problem is that he oversells his line. The best documentary makers let things speak for themselves. Of course, were Moore to do that he wouldn't sell half as many DVDs/cinema tickets because the films would be as entertaining without his little quips.....

The great irony is America is a country where the majority of the people worship a Marxist.

I have to say, that is the quote of the month!

If we're going to go after Michael Moore for being a rich filmmaker, then we have to go after every other director for making millions of dollars. Lucas, Spielberg, Tarentino, Bay, Smith, whoever. Otherwise it's unfair to the other filmmakers who make money from making entertaining films.

But once we do that...uh oh! Here comes socialism!

:D

[Seshmeister]

I'll happily go after Michael Bay.

Give me a corrupt derivatives dealer over that guy any day. He produces more ass gravy than Calcutta in a dysentery epidemic.

Hmmm I find a good part of it to be contradictive, misleading, nebulous and in many cases just plain jibberish. Nothing against the authors... it's the interpretors and bizzare sense of symbolism used as a communication form from those primitive cultures.

Odds are pretty good if there were a way to go back and correctly decipher the language, correctly interpret the context and then apply the mythical belief system at play... little of it would make much sense or find any application in today's world.

A large part of it was just a cultural value systems in it's infancy... I can only guess the mysticism and magic made it more appealing than other forms predating and following it... like buddism, greek and roman god things or many of the earth based belief systems outside of the middle east region.

Odds are pretty good that this post is BS!

Dude, you're making it up as you go along...

Fuck The Church!! I go with my Catholic wife only when she goes once in a blue moon. fortunately she's a PhD in Biology so we never argue Creationism vs. Evolution.

[ELVIS]

What church are you speaking of ??

[FORD]

What church are you speaking of ??

Maybe it's YOUR church?

[ELVIS]

He doesn't know the church I belong to and he has no idea who Jesus Christ is...

[ELVIS]

The Church of Elvis, eh ??

That's scary!

None of those others have said that capitalism, which they participate in so richly, is inherently bad and in some ways morally wrong, while not ceasing that activity. Nor have they criticized others professions as morally wrong. Which makes the rest of them ok and not huge hypocrites like Moore.
