That's a complete fabrication and an insult to all those dedicated movie makers in Hollywood sitting on their asses at Starbucks.

And I bet the next thing you're going to tell me is that they make second-rate American remakes of great international films...why show some dumb movie about soccer when you can have Jimmy Fallon (who can never remember his lines) and Drew Barrymore swap spit over one of the most famous stories in baseball.

I agree but having a remake of the omen on 6/6/06 is just freaking brilliant.

If you have to re-make something, that is.

This should be their last one though, nothing can top this.


Haha, I wonder if the church protesting davinci code will protest this.

Protesting apparently hasn't started on a large scale...let's hope it doesn't. It's pitiful.

Well, considering the gospel was, as yet, unwritten during Jesus' life (and for at least another 30-100 years after that, depending on the book) I believe that Jesus didn't say a word about quoting the gospel. Either way.

I'm certainly not saying that it is WRONG to quote a gospel, but only quoting it is not a lesson. And if anything it is Mark or Luke passing the lesson on.

I can pick up a Bible, but when I come to GC for my high quality religious education, I want my HIGH QUALITY!

Yes, that was my gaffe. I meant to say "scripture" but typed gospel. Anyway, I don't see anything wrong with posting that.

June 6, 2006 is coming. I am just saying.

There is debate whether or not 666 is actually the mark of the beast. Some scholars believe that translation errors and shoddy research has turned 666 into what should really be 616. I guess on thursday we'll see if the sky turns red or not.

Bad thing when it's not grounded in the context. Sola Scriptura paved the way for madness, in my opinion.

You can send Martin a thank you letter care of my boyfriend's parents.

My favorite part of that whole doctrine is the Lutherans who talk about sola scriptura but then cite Luther's works. Those sure aren't in the Bible.

I'M STILL PISSED THAT THEY WERE ON THE FIELD.

If I still was in touch with the Farrelly's, they'd so have heard from me then.

What synod is this in (ok, so you're in Wisconsin, I can take a good guess)??? I was born & raised Missouri Synod and now attend ELCA - and I've never really heard anyone talk about sola scriptura. Although I would like to point out that Luther's works were meant to help the common people understand the bible when the bible was not in the vernacular, and services were conducted in Latin. He was not writing a "seond bible" or even a companion to the bible, but more of a "ok, so I read the thing, what does it all mean?".

Fantastic guess. I don't recall ever attended a regular LCMS service (I know I've gone to weddings but those are always a little different) and I think ELCA is like Catholic-Lite. They are VERY into sola scriptura. They also think the Catholic church is a cult and the Pope is the antiChrist, so you know, not quite so mainstream as your kind of Lutheran.

Yes, ELCA is pretty mainstream, and the second most liberal (behind ALCA, I believe). Although my church tends to lean more conservative on many things. So far, the only thing ELCA that really makes my LCMS brain go is them offering grape juice as an alternative to wine. Although I can handle that because it's offered as an option, and not the only option like many reformed churches. It's a personal thing whether you take it or the wine.

One of my profs is an AA member and very active in the ELCA church - he says they do it for people like him who don't want to touch a drop of alcohol. I think that's kind of nice.

Hey, I went to school in the 616! Kalamazoo, MI!!!!

I guess some might think it a beast, but those four years sure gave me some great memories!

Though they have gotten a new area code...hmm....
