Angels and Demons

[Thoreau]

I recently watch the movie 'Angels and Demons' and toward the very end a bishop said something which made me smile.

"All religion is flawed, that is because men are flawed. And that includes me as well."

Granted, it was only a movie but it still meant something to me.

I'm not really looking for any feedback, just thought I'd share it with you.

I seen the movie, its pure rubbish.

If a neutron bomb was to explode above Vatican...forget Vatican...forget Italy...forget Europe...forget Earth...forget Solar System...

like seriously.

 

[draqon]

and a priest of God could not have said that, not because he is wrong as to saying he and others are flawed but that religion is flawed.

 

[grimace]

people are flawed so let us acknowledge this and get over it once and for all.

 

[draqon]

people are flawed so let us acknowledge this and get over it once and for all.

since people are flawed than what they say is flawed as well, since you are a person, what you just said is flawed as well, therefore we do not have to acknowledge your statement "get over it once and for all" at all.

 

[grimace]

we are not constantly flawed.

A neat quote I found:

“If you add up all the antimatter we have made in more than 30 years of antimatter physics here at CERN, and if you were very generous, you might get 10 billionths of a gram,” CERN’s Rolf Landua, told New Scientist magazine recently. “Even if that exploded on your fingertip it would be no more dangerous than lighting a match.”

 

[draqon]

we are not constantly flawed.

Does not mean that majority of the time we are not flawed.

I'm looking forward to seeing it

 

[draqon]

I'm looking forward to seeing it

its worth watching, I guess. But somehow I enjoyed seeing the "Land of the Lost" much more

 

[skaught]

I hated it. It was, as Draqon said, Rubbish!

I seen the movie, its pure rubbish.

If a neutron bomb was to explode above Vatican...forget Vatican...forget Italy...forget Europe...forget Earth...forget Solar System...

like seriously.

Come on now. Don't you think God would protect his church and city?

 

[draqon]

Come on now. Don't you think God would protect his church and city?

indeed and that is why the city will not experience such an event.

 

[Bree]

It has a very nice meaning.

I watched this movie tonight. I thought it SUCKED! It didn't keep me interested
one bit. I didn't care about what happened to the Characters and then I just kept
getting confused by all the mumbo jumbo religious talk.

Definitely would not recommend this movie or ever watch it again.

The point of a neutron bomb is that it is as non destructive as possible and releases a fatal burst of neutrons which kill / incapacitate / sterilize the effected population while not particularly damaging the infrastructure.
