Dogma...Great Movie.
The Message that is put out is done very well.
Yea and the comedy part is hysterical.

The Catholic Church does alot of things that I think are shady. That is not to criticize anyone who is cause a large part of my family is. The point you brought up is one of them.

i agree with the idea of not having a 2 million dollar church b/c we were taught "wherever 2 or more gather in my name there shall i be" i agree with all that but all i have to say is that the movie Stigmata was a fiction movie loosly based on facts. Sure there is such a thing as the dead sea scrolls but like i said that movie is fiction so the way you percive it in a movie is different from the hard facts b/c they twist the truth obviously to make the movie better.
I haven't researched so i have no clue so whatever.. i have no idea either.

We actually watched Stigmata in Religion Class and Did Research About it...alot of it is fiction. When they say the Church Denies the Gospel of St. Thomas and are trying to cover it up isnt true. They just dont list it in the offical Cannon of the Bible.

Preach it brotha

I do see the truth in your words, but u have to realize that we live in a time of luxury and comfort. the need for a big air conditioned church is there because no one would go if it was in some shitty ass place. but dont get me started on the church, or religion in general.

if only the church had the numbers the tobacco industry has.

I have my reasons for staying away from religion in general. I think this quote from Dogma sums up alot of them quite nicely ( ... )
