A few more things about the GSUS movie and then I'm done with it

• A lady came in this afternoon under the impression that the library was giving away free tickets. I have no idea where she got this.



• Aaron says

  Take a deep breath, people. You're squabbling about the details of an event that may or may not have taken place 2,000 years ago, and a film whose script was based on accounts (the Gospels) written 40-50 years after the event itself, by people who were not eyewitnesses. There's no way to know if the Romans or the Jews were the ones really responsible for Jesus' death, whether he was really the Son of God or just an extraordinarily gifted political leader, or even if he ever really existed. So get a freakin' grip, will you.

  This is infinitely saner than anything I've read on the subject to date.



• Leave it to the wingnuts who are flocking (literally) to church screenings of this film to notice the mark of the beast on their ticket stubs. Of course, who am I to judge these people. I also tend to find manifestations of the satanic in film-related events. This film, for example, could not have possibly emanated from anywhere but the studios of the ninth circle.
