Reply #18: Couldn't have said it better...

I find it maddening to see someone cry crocodile tears over a man being beaten in a movie, but turn a blind eye
to a child lying crumpled in a ditch with their bowels turned inside out in Iraq, which is actually happening as we
speak, and turn a blind eye to a soldier who is arriving home in a coffin in the dead of night whose body is so
mangled he cant even be shown to the family, which is happening as we speak.

Absolutely, Mari.

It's a film only, and a film about events that allegedly took place 2000 years ago. Not enough is said about ending the suffering that is going on right this minute. It's too late to make a difference in what happened to Christ, but it's not too late to make a difference in what is happening now. Seems that these devout Christians don't want to be bothered with Iraqi suffering.

The more I see of some people, the more I like my dogs! ;-)
