: Sorry 'bout that one, I misread her original post and now realize that you were indeed justified for your post. I do apologize for not reading more carefully. My mistake! ::
Rot in hell. No,wait,don't rot. Boil. No wait,simmer until ready to serve. The real question is, when am I not justfied? Some Motherfucker has to be the voice of reason around here and I have nominated myself as Macaroni. All those who appose can kiss Small's ass.
: However, I do stand by my position of tolerance for the newbies---I know I appreciated it when I first came here.

: QUIET!
: : Not for nothing Mick, but it really isn't your place ot complain about the POSITIVE posts of others over a movie that obviously touched thousands. It's one thing to harp over a post that attacks another or blantently insults Kevin or View Askew, but to rip into someone for PROVING Kevin's own point is just wrong.
: : I recall Kevin stating something along the lines way back during the Catholic League controversy, that if atleast one person leaves the film with a changed attitude towards religion (a positive one that is), then he'll feel as though he succeeded. Granted, Michelle, didn't state that her attitude was changed in any way, but she did state that she shared Kevin's view on religion. And what is wrong with that.
: : All of us regular boarders who have been here long before Dogma knew that with the release of this movie, there'd be tons of new boarders. I'd like to believe that many of us can tolerate and help inform the newbies rather than rip into them. Don't attack her if she isn't as knowledged as you or me on Kevin's quotes about Dogma. Rather, applaud her for supporting Kevin and Dogma.
: : I know that I can't speak for Kevin, but I'm somewhat sure that he'd not only have no problem with her, or the dozen other posts that show that his messaged has been clearly conveyed.

: : OUT!
