Why all the talk of Prince? Well partially because I am very excited about his new album but more so becuase the last speaker, Rod Parsley, just took control of the Blue Room at Omni Shorum and shook it like only the artist formerly known as (insert symbol here) can do. Rod banged the pulpit, shouted to high heaven, made huge sweeping gestures, raised the bible in triumph, and broke into prayer mid sentence. People were screaming their amens and hallalujas to the proposed Christian revolution, the elderly woman behind me look slightly terrified, and Rod pleaded for a "new Martin, for you white folks here thats Luther King". Everyone giggled. I held my laughter in hopes that Rod would realize he is white and that he just made a fool of himself but alas, Rod is like the white guy in Boise Idaho who is driving around in an Escelade listening to Ludacris.

I had to take off early from Rowdy Rod's rant for coffee because, well, nothing highlights sleep deprivation quite like the earlier panel titled "Hollywood: Christians Through A Distorted Lense". The greatness of this panel was split between Don Feder's "I never exagerate" annalysis of V for Vendetta and Ted Baehr making a complete ass of himself.

Feder started his speech by saying it would be short and bitter. Again, the people here got the honesty bit of the bible down pretty well. Its the love thy nieghbor as thyself part they missed. And the let he without sin cast the first stone. And... sorry, Im rambeling. Feder said that the new movie V for Vendetta is proof hollywood hates christians. But he asked people not to go see the film-- because its bad m- kay-- but simply to take his word for it becuase he never exagerates. The rest of his speech was an orgy of exageration.

I could go on. if you would like to add to my list of movies depicting Islam as evil, please feel free in the comments section. maybe we can email them to Feder.

Ted Baehr's shining moment came when panelist Robert knight said baehr was the go to guy on all things hollywood. later in his address he asked Baehr what year American Beuaty came out. American Beuaty came out in 1999. Bahers answer? 1991. What expertise!

Sorry for the typo's and lack of links. These bastards are relentless and I need to get back and learn about why news media hates god. More to come...

The fundies you're dealing with would probably say "They're not real Christians" or something like that.

Think they'd go the "pseudo-papist" route, or just whine about liberalism within the Episcopal/Anglican community?

As for "V for Vendetta," you gotta love that the symbol of the Norsefire party is a 'double cross.'
