Am I the only DUer who doesn't care about THE PASSIONS one way or...

[NightTrain]

the other?

[Endangered Specie]

1. Im right with you (for what its worth)

[ArwenJade]

2. I don't care

Everyone was talking to me about it at work today since I'm one of the few Catholics there, but I honestly don't really care. I'm much more liberal than Mel, as are most Catholics, but I say let him make his movie. I probably wont see it. No one is forcing anyone to see it.

[bluestateguy]

3. It's kind of a Red State thing

I may see it when all the fuss dies down--I don't like crowded movie theaters--or on video.

[DS1]

4. I thought there was only one Jesus, is there a sequel I don't know about?

reLENTless? *grin*

[LibertyorDeath]

5. Couldn't give a flying fuck he's been dead 2000 years or so

Let it be already. Hey look he's still dead.

Now don't get me wrong Jesus was one cool dude but all the shit that's been built up around him over the centuries is just so human
it's sickening. To me Jesus = Love above all else this is what he taught and when I look around at America I see a whole bunch of supposedly Christian people and they hate anyone and anything that does not conform to their rigid belief system.

The fundies can circle jerk to this flick all they want it won't change the fact they are some of the most myopic and intolerant people in America.

Jesus is not amused.

6. Frankly I'm more interested in whose farts smell worst!

(which see)

[sventvkg]

7. It's fundamentalist B@#$ SHI&

Give me a break. Planet X will be here by September anyway then we are over...Have fun until then.

[nickgutierrez]

8. Nope, I couldn't care less

White actors, Mel Gibson. All I really needed to know.

[pfitz59]

9. religious ecstasy.......

i've sen 'em frothing at the mouth before. no need to relive the experience.

[elperromagico]

10. Not interested. I read the book.

[grannylib]

24. Excellent answer! Although I appreciate the notion that Christians should

be mindful of Christ's death and resurrection, we should also be mindful of his life and the call in our lives if we are to be followers...all too often that is the message that gets lost.

[Piperay]

11. Sick to death

of it, I couldn't give a f*ck about it (the movie that is). I have nothing against Jesus in-fact I think he was a real cool guy, a pacifist, the original hippie.:hippie:

[VOX]

12. Nope. It's a fundie sadomasochistic orgy...

So why participate in that?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

13. It's my least favourite Beach Boys album.

[ConcernedCanuk]

14. It's a movie, so I'll watch it when it hits the tube

.
.
.

People should be getting a daily dose of the REAL death and carnage going on in Iraq,

I just can't get excited over a movie with actors covered in ketchup . .

But I CAN get upset over the apathy of the world as innocent people are massacred in the name of "freedom"

now THAT is sick . . .

[commander bunnypants]

15. I dont care

whatever, I heard an article about the movie on NPR. One lady was crying because she was so overcome. :wtf:

I got more important things to worry about!!

[Blue-Jay]

16. I don't give a rat's ass either

I've been wondering what all the fuss was about. Not wondering enough to see the movie, as I'm completely uninterested in a Jebus flick.

[radwriter0555]

17. I can't get worked up about cult fairy tales....

fascinating to watch the true believers getting all wound up though, defending their gods.

[NoPasaran]

18. It's a movie, right?

Also didn't care about those hobbit movies that had everybody worked up a little while ago.

[BigMcLargehuge]

19. in honor of this landmark Christian film I am taking my 2 year old son...

to a Three Stooges Marathon at a local art house.

[Blue-Jay]

20. You're a good dad.

Everyone loves the Stooges.

[BigMcLargehuge]

21. thanks :)

I like to think so. Ian doesn't know much of Barney... but he knows all the Toho giant monsters :)

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree :hi:

[grannylib]

25. Rock on *lol*

[BigMcLargehuge]

26. you also rock on

:hi:

[Zero Gravitas]

22. Not interested

The furor over this movie is silly. Its seems that people who are already Christians generally love it as they bring with them a context for what they are seeing. For others its just over the top violence. Its not going to convert anyone but it might bolster the faith of the already faithful.

Gibson is either a paranoid nut or a marketing genius for the way he has promoted this movie.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

23. In about a week, we'll put a poll up and try and find

one non-christian DUer who genuinely thought it was an excellent work.
Who knows?

[terrya]

27. I care more about the final episode of "Friends" than I do about Passions

And I REALLY don't care about "Friends"...
