excie--I used to live in hell, also known as soCal. I have lived back up in NoCal, my native land for 4 years now. edison field is not visited by life-long Giants fans such as myself, after last fall's debacle and melt-down. Sorry--maybe mike could head over and check it out....or whyteduv, she's not far away....

Rafael pucker up Tom want's a kiss.

Exie that's an interesting article on "The Passion" I can't help but being reminded of "The Apostle" with Robert Duvall. It took him years to get that movie out, after putting up 4 million dollars of his own money, but WHAT an excellent movie.

In fact my little signature above my rottie angel is from that movie (it's a song) it was so inspiring.

I think my favorite line from that movie though is after he bashes that youth pastor with the baseball bat (for breaking up his family)he tells his friend "I think I just sent him on the road to Glaw-ry" Classic!

Here is an example of Aramaic, transliterated for your reading enjoyment:

The numbers at the end of each line are verse numbers. This is Acts, chapter one. Pretty exciting, huh?

QQ,

That's like a non-Italian speaker reading an untranslated script of La Boheme and saying, "Beautiful, huh?"

The beauty is in the music and the performances, not merely in the language.

The Passion seeks to transcend our inability to understand the words being spoken, communicating its message through powerful images and a story with which we are all familiar.

You strike me as the kind of guy who would b-and moan about the script to a silent movie.

Fascinating, huh?

Your analogy is incorrect. You are comparing apples to horses of a different color, pal.

The point, Rafael, is that dialog adds something. I like the idea of the Aramaic, and I might like to see it first without subtitles. But I would also like to know what is being said. Words without meaning are very much like meaningless words, Rafael. You should know that, being a journalist, sort of.

You strike me as the kind of guy who would call somebody else the kind of guy who would b- and moan, without the faintest understanding of what he is TALKING ABOUT!

And thanks for the lecture on beauty. I'll file it under "P" for profound thoughts to ponder, when I run out of my own.

Where'd you get that?

EVERYONE knows "qltsad" is spelled "qltsOd"!

You need a better source.

Yo' Mama!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Of course dialogue adds something. But when the artist makes a decision to pull dialogue from the understanding of the audience, it doesn't mean something's been taken away. It means he's appealing to other faculties of your mind.

Your mind does have other faculties, doesn't it? Or do you need everything spelled out for you?

Hey, I don't think those guys with the hammers and nails are terribly fond of that Y'shua character.

First, the fact that you don't know the meaning of certain words does not make those words meaningless. It makes you unaware of their meaning.

Second, what's with the personal attack, dummy?

now i haven't seen the movie "the passion"

i posted the one pic i could find

i'm leery about seeing it because i think it's going to be very graphic and sad.... and it might make me feel guilty for what happened to jesus

i just want to say, i did not do anything to him, i wasn't there, i did not mean for anything bad to happen to him, so if mr. gibson wants me to feel like crap, then i don't like that. if it helps people, fine..... that remains to be seen......

see, i know about these catholics and their guilt trips.... icon_wink.gif;)-->

plus if anyone is to blame, it's God.... he set the whoooooooooole thing up, did he not ?

now let me tell you something, my friend chwester, i was foreordained to sin...... that is not a choice

however, i believe in jesus christ as my lord and savior....

and another thing..... i am so tired of the guilt thing...

you know what ? you talk to God and i'll talk to God..... let HIM decide

but i don't need a movie to make me feel like sheet

**

someone (not directed at anyone) tell ME the difference between being MOVED by something and being made to feel the BLAME about something

okay ?

tanks

and i'm not laying any blame on mel gibson... not yet anyway, in fact, his heart might be in the right place (wayword wayword boing boing boing)
