9:52a - in numbers too big to be ignored
i'm of the non-religious vein, if you must know. i guess. i suppose i don't really fit in any of those molds, really--i just don't really care either way. i don't know if there is/are (a) higher power(s) and i don't much feel like wasting my limited mental capacities debating an unresolvable issue.
that said, there's been a bit of a rhubarb over this mel gibson flick The Passion. it is, apparently, an ambitious (the dialogue is in various ancient languages: hebrew, aramaic, latin) and yet traditional (faithful to the new testament gospels) production that may or may not also be broadly anti-semetic. i haven't seen the film, so i can't and won't judge, but i will say this: if there is a god, mr. gibson--he wants you to shelve this movie. the other day, jim cavaziel, the actor playing jesus, and the assistant director of the film were struck by lightning during filming. they are both alive and recovering well. this is not the first, but the second time that the AD has been struck by lightning while on set. now, i'm not really up on god and violence and all that, but maybe someone else can tell me: is it still considered 'smiting' if the person doesn't die?

10:41a - he's out. you're out too. i don't think i'm in either. no gang!
okay. i'm going to stop writing here and continue writing there. is that okay with you? even though there is not quite finished, i like it better than here. and it's easier, i swear. so please, join me there. i've taken the liberty of pasting the most recent entries over there so as not to confuse. keep in mind that i'm still tweaking over there, so it's not perfect. and never will be, i'm sure.
