Probably because the ones making the movies are artists, and therfore, liberals, and therefor probably hate religion. Which makes perfect sense!Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-91104770871007360442010-09-15T15:59:20.967-04:002010-09-15T15:59:20.967-04:00I know it isn't Jesus, but really it wasn'...I know it isn't Jesus, but really it wasn't defaced?

I think it was just affected by the evil forces stalking George C. Scott (and who among us hasn't stalked George C. Scott from time to time?).lazlo azavaarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08947137317385572671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-58308392444926860572010-09-15T12:15:47.031-04:002010-09-15T12:15:47.031-04:00The Version You've REALLY NEver Seen is, I ass...The Version You've REALLY NEver Seen is, I assume, 35 added minutes of poop, plus another 5 where Regan pees a little more on the rug (she had some water in the middle of the night).deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-3341653415303352292010-09-15T07:53:36.074-04:002010-09-15T07:53:36.074-04:00I AM currently reading the Exorcist Emily.

It's so very macabre. Plus Jesus was almost always so darn skinny.<br /><br />Have you read The Exorcist? I remember you mentioned it a while back. The book goes into a whole lot more detail about the Black Masses and defiled religious statues. Like, A LOT.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-78581490622654517292010-09-15T00:43:41.313-04:002010-09-15T00:43:41.313-04:00Damn!

I ...Damn! Now Jesus scares me too. Thanks a lot!<br /><br />I feel your pain regarding church and the blah-blah. Until I moved out on my own (which was as soon as humanly possible), I was forced to attend Church 2 hours on Sunday morning, 1 hour on Sunday night, and another hour on Wednesday. Not to mention the 1-2 hour bible studies on Thursday, the monthly "Mens Club" meetings, etc. It's no wonder I got burned out on the whole scene.<br /><br />Anyway...Great post!<br />--J/MetroAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706937351903658758.post-35612475619907931892010-09-14T23:56:03.943-04:002010-09-14T23:56:03.943-04:00Religion in general scares me and those creepy pic...Religion in general scares me and those creepy pictures of Jesus don't help. :DJenny Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00380254017784609692noreply@blogger.com
