17th Angel, your a cruel and spiteful man (lol). Saw Apocalypto last night-it was damn good to (could be called Mel Gibson Attached To Historically Accurate Movie That Doesn't Take A Pop At The English- but Apocalypto's snappier i think). Does show how advanced the Aztecs were and just what a...

maybe off topic but its an interesting (and vaugly related) story- I had been aware of it before just didn't mention it because it wasn't 'vampy' enough. Just one quick question, is there a book (or collection of books) that relate tales such as Longinus and the other storys that have sprung up...

Because I disagree with you I'm obviously ignorant? (Ignorant meaning unaware of any relevent infomation or unknowlegable rather than stupid). Yes I have read the Bible, thankyou, yes I was brought up a Christian too. I was mearly pointing out that the Christian viewpoint (which is only ever...

Actually that a good question, mainly cos I only partly explaind my self. Don't think it would stop war (just make us a little more honest as to why we're going to war...). The main reason why I think we'd be better off not knowing about or beliving in God is; with out the promise of an...

No, not a 'Carry On' fan- only that one which I find funny. (oh, and 'Carry On Screaming'). The last time I heard of any one running screaming from a cinema- it was a while back-Aracnphobia was the film and it (very nearly) was me- I'm terrified of spiders (and clowns- I fear the day when Giant...

As I understan it... I'm going home now, bye... Being serious my view is this; complexity comes from simplicity (this is constantly shown to us by evoultion, the big bang, computer programming... they all result in complex forms from simple beginings). God is something so simple the...

Hi Thomas,Might I also point out that the Church was a great supporter of the sciences throughout the Middle Ages, a patron of the Arts ... some of the greatest philosopphers were Christian, and some of them in Orders ... so hardly 'stamped on' ... of course, that's another 'view' that is...

Hi thomas,

What about the original 'The Exorcist'- I have been informed that this isn't actually a comedy but I was in fits of giggles all the way through. (I have been called a sick S.O.B. for that...) Blazing saddles- absolute classsic, one of the funniest films ever. Carry On Up The...

Near Dark, great vampire flik with some good ideas and stunning images- bit of a lame ending tho... Serenity, the film continuation/conclusion to Firefly (not that you need to have seen the short lived series)-full of laugths, action, twists, turns and a few nasty surprises Recomended. The...

Hi Thomas, Putting it in a nutshell she describes the Gnostics as a kind of 'Christian Mystery religion'... Indeed she does, but she also implies that 'orthodoxy' ceased to be just that. I'd dispute the point that 'orthadox' modern Christianity is in any way a true 'mystery religion'-on...

Even the Biblical Jesus is open to interpritation and the Christian version isn't the only one with merit. As a quick example there have been some interesting works recently that would suggest he was more of a political actavist who played on Jewish expectations of a messiah-he wouldn't have...

Don't know much about this but I do remember seeing a documentry on TV (I think it was presented by Graham Handcock) were he showed that the Sphyinx definatly predates the pyraminds by a good long time- it shows distinct signs of water erosion so must have been built at a time when Giza was...

Ug! I'd heard the Lilith link before and a variation on the Nephilim one as well, then there's Wes Cravens take on Dracula- were he's Judas (intriging idea that one) I'd also heard that the first vampire was the Roman spearman who pierced Christs side on the cross, then there's the folk lore...

Just to answer a few points- and hello again Thomas, by the way-& pop over to my post on the Nephilim Race... I recomended the Elain Pagels book simply because it offers a different interpritation to the Gnostic movement and Gospels than the one currently held by the majority of people and, far...

I'll just answer a few points that have been raised re my original posting and the elaine pagels book.Ok- E P may have had an 'agenda' with her work- sorry, but who doesn't? was Dan Brown completely unbiased when he wrote the Da Vinci Code? (before I get it in the neck- yes D B was writing...

I stated that teh Nicean Creed was not just used or created by the Roman Catholic Church although I admit the way I've phrased that whole point is sloppy at best. But I was pretty clear about it being different 'sects' of Christianity- an accurate discription of what was around at the time, even...

I like to thank Silas for proving one of my points. If you'd bothered to check what you believe instead of just believing what you are told to by you church leaders, you'd have found out that Islam does 'have Jesus...'
