| "The Burning Hell" | | The first time I saw that movie, I was about 8 years old sitting in a Sunday School class trying out some new material for my habitual misbehaving in public school the following Monday.
I can't really recall the dialog from the movie, but I do remember that one of the leading actors literally lost his head driving his motorcycle recklessly and ended up burning in "Hell". They had everything in that movie, decapitated heads inside of motorcycle helmets, people being rapped by fire around the clock...deamons that looked like...Darth Maul![b]It was AWESOME!!![/b] And at that age, it was probably the best graphic movie I was permitted to watch besides "Carrie" and "The Exorcist". Later that evening I could not wait to tell all my heathen, neighborhood friends about how cool church was and how they let me see a gory movie in Sunday School. Now that I'm a little older and slightly more mature, I think the Christian leaders were trying to use that movie to scare us in to living a holy life. I'm not sure if they were really hoping that scary movie would stop my constant bad behavior in Sunday School class, but it was finally the kind of entertainment I enjoyed going to church... | |
| | BAN IT ALL! Let God Sort it Out... | | If you could ban one thing (that is currently legal) what would it be? If you could legalize something currently banned, what would it be?For me, I would ban cell phones and mp3/cd players in the classroom. I've heard all the arguments, but the fact is, they have no purpose being there. The only thing they do is disrupt the class or prevent the student from learning. I would legalize (or at least remove the ban) on motorcycle helmets for adults. I know how dangerous motorcycles can be, and (having been a paramedic) I've seen first hand the injuries that can result from not having a helmet. Guess what, we all know! I know the smart thing to do is to wear one, but if we are going to legislate wisdom we'll have to ban almost everything that causes injury and death.Ok, your turn, have at it! | |
