Movie Update:

I got distracted by the real world and forgot to post something that I have been thinking about since Saturday.

Go and see Saved! Find a theater that has it, and then get your worthless butt there.

Sure, plenty of people are crying about how rude it is. How it insult christianity. No offense, but it isn't hard to take a valid and intellectual shot at christianity. Besides, if they actually sat through the movie they would realize it was less a shot on christianity and more a shot on people that blindly follow something without questioning it. (Any person serious about their religion will tell you that he/she questions it. That is after all part of faith, the decision to believe.)

The movie portrays a young girl who is horridly confused and has no real world experience. She believes something unflinchingly and when that fails her she turns and starts walking in the other direction. It also shows some of the most common christian, and generalized, religious hypocrisies. From a pastor that would sooner cheat on his wife than divorce her, to a girl so uninformed that she believes gay people can be cured...not to mention the kid that thought you could get pregnant the first time you had sex.

A little explanation. It is hypocritical to say you love someone and then try to 'cure' them, thus changing them from what they are naturally to what is unnatural for them. It is hypocritical to say you keep your children fully informed, when they are in truth ignorant to the basics of something as important as sex. Don't you dare try telling me sex isn't important. If it weren't for sex, I know at least seven girls and three guys that would not be able to pay for college. Besides, it is how you got here. Unless you are a freak of nature. FREAK!!! I can cure you, come sleep with me!!!

Yeah it is a little hot out and I am losing it. Anyhow, see Saved! because it rocks.
