The Beast revisited

This looked pretty interesting so I posted it back in October. The Beast is a new movie that is currently in pre-production. It is due to be released on the odd (but of course controversial) date of 6/6/06. The movie is about a young girl who, following in her father’s footsteps, discovers perhaps the greatest secret in the history of organized religion (namely Christianity): Jesus Christ never existed. Find out more here: The Beast This is a responce I recieved from someone. >One comment here to think about: >Jesus is representation of the suffering there is in this world, the good that can persist through out suffering and yet I see evidence around me of people more >willing to embrace the demons, the evil in this world. It sickens me to see this world going to hell. Is this all the media's (Hollywood)doing? You know tha bible >is so much bigger than our summarized copy that we may own at home. Why not make an epic movie about that. Why is it so much easier to be bad and believe in the devil >than to be good and believe that there was a man who did exist and "obviously" left a mark in the world throuogh his teachings. There is too much written from so long ago >for it to be all a lie. Faith is in good can't be wrong. Hmmmm..... Now I am not a fan of Christianity but I will endeaver to be diplomatic. First of all. Hollywood itself is all about fantasy. A grand "what if" played out visually. Sometimes its about history and what it has taught us. But in general no movie should be taken too seriously. EVER. Now that said. There has been a great great deal of debate about whether ther was a Jesus or not. And if he really did exist then who was he really. There are so many theories and supositions that almost anyone could say was something or another. I have heard people say some really silly shit. And then I have heard some people say some really great things regarding religion. Watching a movie or being interested in watching a film, reading a book, or asking questions doesnt mean you embrace evil. On the contrary, embracing evil takes a bit more of a commitment than that. Trust me when I say, I have met evil and it doesnt like the media. While I will agree that this world is going to hell, I think it is something besides HollyWood. Personally I think these guys are responsible. After all it is they who keep Britney, Justin, and Nora on the air. Bubblegum candy crap makes me want to drive to the radio station and fuck Sam Malone up the ass with a broken GoldShlager bottle! But thats me. According to many the Bible is very big and was never printed in completeness. I honestly would love to know about the missing years of Christ. there is an Epic film about Christ. The Passion of The Christ, its one of the top grossing films of 2004. So yeah some people do want to know about it. Now then. Why is it so easy to be bad? Cause bad's fun baby. Bad is cool. Bad is sexy. I mean comeon, nobody wants to hang out with Myron cause he is clean cut and doesnt curse. Everyone wants to hang out with Chris cause he's a wild motherfucker that has no respect for man or beast. Its just human nature. We dont want whats good for us, we want what feels good to us. And yes. It can be a lie. Some of the best lies around went for years. Take the PiltDown Man another example, The Sasquach. History has proven time and again that power hungry men/women will lie, cheat, steal and kill for thier precious bit of power. Court TV is litter with them. Faith is a good thing as long as you know what you believe in. Just ask Sherry about it
