Intelligent Decline

[Reverend Joe]

GAH! Give it up! You peopel insist upon turning everything into a debate back here!

Also, I personally do not want to see either "The Passion" or "March of the Penguins", but not because of any lefty-righty crap- I don't want to see them because they look HORRIBLE. They look like a snuff film and a collection of meaningless garbage, respectively.

But that joke about bringing the hammer down on Louis's ass was pretty funny.

Its fun isn't it
Anyway to push the boat out even further .
What is the messsage in the film about abortion ?
Yes thats right , a film about penguins contains messages about abortion According to some conservatine writers anyway

Strawmen indeed , where do these publication find all these dummies

Would that be an article from the 8th titled
"Penguin Parenting and the Motherhood of God" ?

If only our friends from across the blue divide would read a bit more, they would see many Christian outlets promoting the movie. Michael Medved himself said in an interview that it is 'the motion picture this summer that most passionately affirms traditional norms like monogamy, sacrifice and child rearing. (..) This is the "Passion of the Penguins".' And National Review editor Rich Lowry tells young conservatives': 'You have to check out "March of the Penguins". It is an amazing movie. And I have to say, penguins are the really ideal example of monogamy. These things - the dedication of these birds is just amazing.'

Anyway, it is the best selling documentary after Fahreneit 9-11. The remarkable thing is that this movie, which was meant by director Luc Jacquet to serve one superstition, i.e. to warn against man-made global warming, is now serving another, i.e. Intelligent Design. It seems the movie starts with the words 'For millions of years they have made their home on the darkest, driest, windiest and coldest continent on earth. And they've done so pretty much alone.'

Millions of years, eh? So much for Christian creationism.

Hum, what about that, and that, that

ROFL, that's really hilarious. Either the american translation is badly screwed up or the right wing religious fanatics are really looking for something to push their agenda.

The violence in the film is brief and mild, only depicting what truly happens in nature.

There is very much unbrief, unmild violence happens in nature!!!

This penguin must be added to the list of Smilies -- at least for formal occasions.

I couln't believe the article linking the film to abortion .
Abortion is wrong because penguins don't have abortions !!!!!!

Driving cars is wrong because penguins don't drive cars
