Oh, this irritates me. Hi all!
Well, I have finally decided that enough is enough. I honestly don't know when the name of Jesus became the worlds' most favourite swear
word.
My husband and I went to see a movie last Saturday (13 March 2010). It was generally a good movie, with really good actors. The disappointing part came when they used the name of Jesus Christ to swear. That was not the end. We took out two dvd's earlier that week and was unable to finish watching either of them, due to the blasphemy.
I've decided that I'm tired of waisting money on movies and DVDs that we're unable to enjoy or to finish because of my convictions and my
love for Christ. I know that if the situation was different and they used the name of Allah, or Mohammed, or any other god or holy figure to swear in movies, we would be faced with a war.
Why should we as Christians sit back and accept this? What does it Say about our convictions and our love for our Saviour when we turn a
blind eye to His dignity and glory? I know that many have attempted to make their voices heard in this regard. I am not saying that my voice is so much louder than others, but this is my small attempt to stand up for what I believe. It is my attempt to stand up not only for my right as a consumer, but for my God as well.
I want to insist that, just as there is an N for nudity, a PG for parental guidance, V for violence, S for sex etc, at the bottom of movie posters, warning movie goers of what they are choosing to see, there should be a B included, warning Christians of Blasphemy in the movie.
I trust that I am not the only one upset and tired of this. I trust that those of you who share my convictions, will send this petition on to get as many names as possible, so that we can make the correct authorities aware and to insist on an answer and solution.
PLEASE REMOVE THE SENDER’S EMAIL ADDRESS BEFORE FORWARDING THIS LETTER. At every hundred names reached, please cc me on e-scholtz@hotmail.com ( mailto:e-scholtz@hotmail.com) and I will make sure that your voice is heard.
Thanks so much and love to all.

How about..........we make up a new vocabulary of swear words!!!!
|
It'll be no use their putting their heads down and saying "Come up again, dear!" I shall only look up and say "Who am I then? Tell me that first, and then, if I like being that person, I'll come up: if not, I'll stay down here till I'm somebody else"

So.... can I just post for the sake of posting just because I want to post and have another post in this forum so that it will be another post added to my post count so I can have more posts?
I want to be legendary.

It's more fun (and active, and honorable) to get it up legitimately... |

Yes, but that was my first spamish comment, ever. I wanted to try it. |
