was only attributed to the Pope. The policy from the Vatican is that the Pope does not comment on films.

Funny, historically ,the current Pope has had a history that was notible for his liberal,artistic views....
Do you care to give an example?? I don't know if there is one liberal bone in his body.

Personally, I find it an intersting artistic representation.

By the way, I was informed that the Pope does not review movies or plays. His statement about Mel Gibson's movie could be considered a rave review. As far as Jesus Christ Superstar goes, if you were told this by a nun, she may have been blowing smoke up your privates. Back in the 70's there were 'people of the cloth' with their own agendas, teaching their form of rogue Catholicism. Remember when your parents said, "Don't believe everything your told." ? They were right.

You know how everyone always has a 'pollock' joke ready? How The entire nationality get's the short end? Know where it came from?
in wwII, the polish clavary charged hitler's panzers on horse back with lances. To me, this is not an act of stupidity, this is an act of supreme love for one's country. something to think about.

Polak jokes are a thing of the early 20th century when swarms of Polish immigrants came to the states. The jokes became quite popular but are generally limited to the US. You won't hear them anywhere else in the world.
There was a Polish cavalry in WW2, but a charge against Panthers is a myth. I've read where the myth started but it slips my mind now. Horses were a better means of transportation over the terrain than vehicles, especially since many tanks were destroyed in the Blitzkrieg. Other armies, particularly Russian but German as well used horses for transportation in WW2. Lance charges are a thing of the 16th-17th century.

If he was alive today and began to teach, we would crucify our LORD all over again. I grew up with a very firm picture of the last days of Christ. Thew realism I expect to find in this movie, I also expect to be dejevu. A repeat of that suffering all the days of our sinfull lives.
Risk nothing, and stand still. You'll be one of the first to be eaten.
