“Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?”
But the weak and tremulous Pilate, friend of Caesar, had no authority over the living human being.
Lyin’ Ted. Holds the bible high. Puts it down. Lies.
.@SenTedCruz (R-TX) criticizes U.S. Senate candidate Adam Hamilton (D-KS) over his comments on Muslims going to heaven: "Interesting idea, we show up there at heaven, first thing you see is Osama Bin Laden."
However chaotic or unfair things may have been at school I got home and there was Captain Picard helming the Enterprise with authority and gentleness. Whatever happened, however crazy things could get, he’d set it right. May Patrick’s memory be a blessing.

BOURDAIN: Once you’ve had acorn salad and damson cordial at Redwall Abbey you’ll never stop wanting to crush Cluny the Scourge with a bell.

A lot of horror contains Christian themes, that’s true. But we also need to guard our hearts so we are not overly fascinated with evil and violence.
I'd actually argue that horror is the most Christian genre of film. Obviously that's not true of the torture porn stuff -- films in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre tradition -- but supernatural horror is often subtly Christian and sometimes very explicitly Christian. It's the only category of film where the supernatural, demons, spirits, exorcisms, the Church, etc, are consistently taken seriously. The only genre where the priest might actually be the good guy. Horror has deep roots in Christian thought and tradition.

The miracle of some local families being spared when they fled the fire and sought shelter at the local chapel led to the first approved Marian apparition in the U.S.
Sorkin’s THE SOCIAL RECKONING is one of the most insipid, ugly, flat films of the year — an insufferably sanctimonious fantasia of blue-state Boomers that traps Jeremy Strong in a man-child performance that unintentionally echoes Martin Short in CLIFFORD. theglobeandmail.com/culture/…
Humanity isn’t ready for the radical (ontological?) implications of disclosure. It needs to first be piloted by the Joe Rogan Experience.
The pub being called the Eagle and Child is a good sign.

Every artist is entitled to their own creative direction and this could be very good on its merits. But if there’s a minor quake in Oxford it’s probably because Greta Gerwig added rock music to Narnia and had a woman voice Aslan.
EXCLUSIVE 🪩
Greta Gerwig’s Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew is a rock inspired fantasy nodding to David Bowie and The Who.
“Narnia is literally a world made out of music,” she tells Empire. “Rock’n’roll to me felt like a world made out of music.”
