Default "The Passion of the Christ"


"Nexis" wrote in message

The movie was gratuitous in it's use of gore, there's no question about

it.
In attempting to drive home the suffering, Mr. Gibson went too far and

made
the whole thing overwhelming and the result is that one ends up numbed in
the process. It would have served the purpose better to have less graphic
violence and blood,



So Christ was not beaten as much? He did not bleed that much? If that was
typical of the violence that took place, it is accurate and should be there.
People were truly barbaric and truly did things like that. Why does our
society soften real facts but let our kids blow the heads off of characters
in a video game?

Too often we are changing the names of things just so they don't sound so
harsh. Do you know who can parking the Handicapped Parking places? Crippled
people. There, I said crippled because that is what most of them are. I'm
not full figured, I'm fat. I know it and so do people that look at me. I'm
also not hirsute challenged, I'm going bald. No fancy names needed.

Where I work, we don't have associates or human resources, we have workers.
They get paid as much as associates in other companies. They don't want
fancy names, they want a paycheck.
