It's been a month or more since I blogged last, but now that I've finally gotten my hands on a wireless router, the doors aare open again for me to vent my enlarged spleen in html format.
So... what all should I rant about today?
Oooh, here's a nice series of letters to the Philadelphia Daily News, all about Mel Gibson's magnum opus, "The Jesus Movie".

I love the first letter:
OP-ED writer Stephan Rosenfeld admits he frequently drags the name of Jesus into the gutter by blaspheming him and then profanes the Scriptures as "fiction."

Despite the fact that without evangelical Christian support, Israel would hardly have a friend in the world [EXCEPT FOR THE UNITED STATES, THE MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD -ed.], and despite the fact that many true Christians suffered and died at the hands of Hitler as well (some like Corrie ten Boom for sheltering Jews), and despite the fact that true Christians revere the Jews as God's chosen people, Mr. Rosenfeld claims to fear anti-Semitism. I have seen NONE as a result of this film.

You also have to really appreciate the leap of logic made by writer Rick Bauer, who claims not only is Mel's fil not anti-semitic (and I have to admit, i haven't seen the film and don't plan to: I think Mel Gibson sucks as an actor and his historical dramas are weak shadows on the really over the top MGM epics), but rather Jews are anti-Christian. The comparison between Spielberg's proposal to do a film on the Inquisition (which will no doubt be deadly serious, deadlier tedious and blatantly prey on the audience's emotions a la "Schindler's List, a movie I have NEVER been able tos it through) and Mel Brooks' screwball comedy "History of the World Part One" is not only intellectually dishonest (and deliberately so), it's ludicrous.
So there's some spleen. More to come as I sit here unemployed and looking at internet porn.
