I always ask myself about what happened with christians that made them let go the beauty of religion or faith to the hands of hollywood directors . Why do they accept such things?


thanks for the hard work and sacrifice of some jealous muslims we didn't come to the level to watch our prophets in a sex comedy or what ever movie they are fabricating. Even the religious areas like the ka'ba or mosques are not used as a party scene in some stupid american dumb humor movie.


Why do christians allow movies like (dogma) in it you see a funny sculpted statue of jesus giving the dude attitude ! .....


(The last temptations of christ) shows how jesus was in a ***** house watching men taking turns over magdalena the whole movie is repulsive.

(Saved) i hope that kids are not watching this movie its all about teenagers . Maybe hollywood made the rating on that one a Pg13 , you will see how kids are making fun of jesus in a weird way .

(The monty python: life of brian) lol the three wise men lost their way and ended up at brian's house thinking he is jesus ,(the monty python and the holy grail) you know you can add anything made by the pythons.


And many other movies i have a long list. So Whats going on with christians how can they accept all this nonsense ? They are 2.7 billion and No one have the guts to do anything.

I know that they are jealous of how muslims are still maintaining the morals up. I don't want my religion to be used as a script for a hollywood disgusting movie who the hell they think the are .anyway Its over my dead body only. and the 1.5 billion will never allow that to happened.
 
what do you expect people to do when they dont take their own beliefs seriously and who (some of them) are malicious and envious of those whose deen (:shade:) has remained untainted? what do you expect of people who have their book and leaders corrupted and tampered with? from where will the sincerity come?

i'd say more, but i think i'll get in trouble :hiding:
 
Well, in christianity, as long as you love jesus, anything else goes.

If their popes and priests and pastors and nuns and ministers etc who are supposedly to be in communion with god and holy spirit committed unspeakable crimes (in the past and recent times) and got away with it, what can you expect from laymen christians?
 
The last temptation of Christ movie was released 22 years ago, .... at 1988 !

It based on the novel that written by a Greek novelist, Nikos Kazantzakis. The novel itself is banned.

This movie became a controversial movie and got many protests from Christian people. In 1988, some French Catholic threw 'molotov cocktail' to a cinema in Paris as a protest for this movie, several people were injured.

Maybe it's because we're... not offended? Call me cocky, but I believe that my religion is the path of truth: people can think and mock what they like, is it going to 'offend' me? Of course not, the words of men are needless and not offensive when you know the truth. OK, put it another way: say someone insulted you to your face, say they called you fat when you were actually thin- would it offend you? Of course not, because you know the truth, and nobody can change that truth.

I can see where you're coming from, but Christianity isn't a religion that goes into a defensive shell whenever an insult is thrown its way. The words of men are nothing more than hot air, especially when we believe God will reward us for our calmness and 'turn the other cheek' attitude.
 
So what would you expect them to do? Not reacting in public doesn't mean agree with it, does it?
 
I remember asking a Christian about publishing "The Manga Bible" and whether its okay for them to get all holy characters in their religion -including their god- in this book pictured like that...the Christian guy said that its okay!
 
I guess not all the christian people would say the same... you can have the progressives and the conseravatives, like I call them. Progressives usually want more change, a more open view and such. Conservatives rather keep the traditions. Most of the people are in between, of course. Now I think the guy you mentioned will have been a little more progressive. However I don't think it would be a very bad idea to make a manga of the Bible. It depends on how it's made: it must tell the truth, and can't make fun of holy people of course. But if it's done well, I think that it might be able to find a better way to spread the Message.

You should watch the movie (the last temptations of christ) before you put on your shoulder the answer "WE are not offended"

My questions is what happened for christians that made them let go the beauty and prestige of religion into the hands of the low lifes of hollywood which in return hollywood is really contributing in lowering the society . Why did they allow that to happened . Is there a benefit out of this nonsense?

I'm sorry, but that is purely erroneous. How on Earth did you conclude that Christianity lost its beauty because a few Hollywood films were made mocking some Christian beliefs? Every religion has its beauty, and that beauty is not taken away or lost because some Hollywood fatcats want to chase the Yankee dollar.

Also, they allowed it happen because as I previously said, Christians in general do not get offended by trivial matters.

i have an idea about the american constitution , ive seen how the constitution deals with religion in the movie (the people vs larry flynt) which is based on a true story!

i like what u said that to answer the topic you need to dig in the past , it takes more than a post to figure it all out , but liberals always amazes me ;D
 
I think most Christians will say that reacting violently against these Hollywood jerks is much more disgusting than anything they can put in their movies. The best thing to do is pray that they will see the light.
 
I think it's up to Christians if they are so tolerant. May be they think their religion will be better if they accept these films or pictures about their Sanctities. I respect their tolerance, I mean they know about their religion more than muslims, and we are not supposed to tell them to behave like we do.
