Mel Gibson: The Dark Side.

[wollery]

No Christian has ever explained to me why Jesus had to die in order to let everybody into heaven. Why couldn't he just do it while he was still alive?

Good point, but they still believe that he had to die for it to happen, even if they can't justify that belief.

God always demanded blood sacrifices. The ultimate sacrifice, therefore, required the ultimate blood.

Why God needs blood in the first place I've never heard an answer for. Perhaps he's a vampire?

Maybe it's the same reason he needs all that money.

The early christians did not expect him to die. So they made an excuse that it was what god wanted to redeem them.

This sort of thing often occurs when one Christian picks on another Christian in regards to the proper interpetation of their respective mythologies.

Enjoy the show!

It's like watching 2 geeks argue over who would win in a dogfight between the Enterprise and the Millennium Falcon.

Possibly. I don't remember. I'm not really a geek, but I play one online.

I'm not either--I just vaguely recall a movie and someone asking why god would need a spaceship. For some reason, Star Trek comes to mind.

The answer is: of course god needs a spaceship, cause all the other gods have spaceships and he doesn't want to be left out.

The one where Scotty walked in on Kirk and O'Hurra (sp?) shagging, the sight of which made Scotty so jealous he beamed Kirk's wang into space.

ST5 The Undiscovered Country, only it wasn't God, as Kirk pointed out, "Why does God need a spaceship?"

ps I'm not really a nerd, I just have a very good memory for useless trivia.

No, honestly.

You at the back, stop laughing!

Oh yeah, see I'm not really all that nerdy after all. Although I did know it was ST5, even if I did get the subtitle wrong.

Umm, I'm just going to shut up now.

Ah, but I don't memorize it, that would imply intent, it just comes back to me for no apparent reason.
