: : : : Kevin, I'm rather confused about you. I don't know you, so I really
: : can't
: : : : make any sort of judgments about what kind of person you are,
but
: : I
: : : : don't understand how someone who is a devout Catholic can
: : : : produce movies so full of vulgarity and obscenities. Do you really
: : feel
: : : : that God is pleased with this sort of thing? I have seen all your
: : : : movies except the latest, so far, and there are parts that I do
enjoy.
: : : : You certainly have an ear for good dialogue, but my enjoyment
has
: : : : been hampered by the constant cursing and sexual crudeness. I
: : : : really am digging your Green Arrow series, which proves that you
: : can
: : : : spin a good yarn without the profanities, so why chock your films
so
: : : : full of them? I see all the zombies out there (especially at the
: : : : Chicago Con) who try to act and talk just like your movie
characters,
: : : : and it brings me down. I know you don't owe me any sort of
: : : : explanation, but I'd really like to know who the real Kevin Smith is
: : and
: : : : if there's some secret justification for all this that I'm just too
dense
: : to
: : : : grasp. I know the Bible says to not use coarse or crude
language
: : : : and humor (Ephesians 5: 4 "There should not be among you any
: : : : obscenity, foolish talk or coarse jesting, which are out of place...",
: : : : Colossians 3: 8 "You should rid yourselves of all such things as
: : : : these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your
: : : : lips.") , but you obviously interpret that differently than it reads.
Clue
: : : : me in, here. Obviously I don't think all movies should be bereft of
: : any
: : : : foul language as it adds authenticity and conveys intensity, but
no
: : : : movie ever needs the level of foul language that some of yours
: : : : contain, especially when it's used strictly for cheap laughs and
: : shock
: : : : value. I'm not singling you out, others do the same, I'm just
using
: : this
: : : : forum to try to understand you.
: : : : So, if you've got the time, please respond. If not, I'm sure one of
: : your
: : : : devoted followers will be sure to step in and put me in my place
: : with
: : : : some of that clever language they like to use to put down those
: : with
: : : : opinions that differ from theirs.
: : : : Thanks!

: : : HE SAID IT BEFORE
: : : GOD AS A SENSE OF HUMOR

: : Oh, and God's sense of humor is just like Kevin's, huh? That must
: : be why we find so many FUCK's in the Bible, huh professor?

: WE ARE CREATED IN GOD'S IMAGE
: P.S. I TEACH RELIGION FOR A LIVING

Meaning we are made as spritual being capable of a relationship
with God. Just cuz you're a teacher, don't make you an expert on the
Bible. The Bible ain't about religion, man, it's about faith and a
relationship with God. Religion is for the birds.
