I went and saw this with my family and I have to admit...this was the best movie I have ever seen. I say that, because it made me very thankful for the things that I have in my life. So many times we take things for granted, wanting everything, but we fail to realize that Christ sacrifised His son, so that we could experience life. We all need to take a moment and be thankful for this life, even though at times it seems bitter and cold. Wake up every morning and thank God for the sunshine, the flowers, the birds and for the simple fact that we are loved.....Loved by Him, even though we fail at times. Love your neighbor, your enemies, but most of all...LOVE YOURSELF!!! God Bless |

Why do you ask? |
We're all going to be judged one way or another. |
So when anyone says that they've watched the Passion, loved it, and accepted it's message I immediately ask them if they support the war. How could anyone who fully accepts the teachings of Jesus, especially those shown in the Passion, support the war? |
do about it, cause it's going to happen whether I want it to, or not. I just go about my life loving all that is around me, even if I don't get that love in return. I treat people the way that I want to be treated and that's in LOVE. |
I think we're tested all the time, but it's up to us to get it right. No one said life was easy...that's for sure! |

This is why i thought the Passion was so dull. |
|
It's not the same thing, but we all go through some kind of torture in our lives, and we still manage to go on. I've gone through some horrible things in my day, and yet, I still remain positive and strong....for my son. Is that because I have Christ in my life...YES! Let's see if Wisper has anything negative to say about that!? |

If christ is divine, then his message doesn't have that much weight. So he was calm while being tortured. Big deal. He had the reward of being resurrected later. But if he's not divine, then his acts have meaning. Being "christlike" without the reward and assurance of divinity is much more impressive. |
Good for you. I only think you should stop selling yourself and your own strengths short by attributing these things to Christ and his supposed love for you. It's a placebo. It's like Dumbo and his magic feather. You did it all by yourself. I also agree with anti. |
If not, that's okay, cause it's your choice. I'm not getting on anyone here, just stating my opinions and thoughts. I know when I was going through some rough times in my life, there was no positive feedback from many people. I always just heard the words.."Oh, get over it!" Well, it would of been easier, had I had something different. I do try to live a good life and I try to look at the positive and not the negative, but that's just me. I'm not perfect, but I just want a better way of living. I certainly didn't want to get anyone mad at me. I'm really not annoying...really! I'm just a simple person with simple needs. |
Okay I'm mean I'm kidding.... kidding on the square. |

Wisper - the Dumbo analogy was fantastic. You're my short duration personal saviour for the moment. Jesus is a good guy. I've never met him, but he does a fine job of running the Church offices down in Austin. He's sure got the Faith In "Bob"(or F.I.B) going! |
