: Has anyone at View Askew seen the CAPalert review of Dogma? It cracks me up, the guy sat through 38 minutes and deemed it evil from that. Among the sins listed:
: 52 uses of the most foul of the foul words
: facial piercing
: adult in underwear
: gaping mouth and licking kissing
: You'd almosst think it was a joke...
: M@$E$
LOL! I read it. For one thing, the critic's a moron. He mentions that the scene with the Metatron (aka "Alan the Dickless Wonder" according to the image archive) that God removed his genitalia. How can something be removed that was never there in the first place? Obviously, he just wanted to play "Count the blasphemies" games with the movie, sprinkled liberally with out of context Bible quotes, (which works well with the misrepresented, out of context movie quotes) and not actually give an intellectual review. Why? Because that would be too much work, and I'm sure his meager handful of brain cells were hurting just with having to think enough to write even one paragraph. If he watched the whole thing, his head would explode too!
And he's complaining why Christians are lamblasted for their views? If they were all as anally retentive as Ye Old Thumper Boy, it be a wonder it doesn't happen more often! As a former Catholic myself, I thought the movie was funny, and I for one, did catch the whole pro-faith theme.
