Philosophies on Theology?

That is one way to look at it.

Religion is fun to talk about but most people get shy when it comes to this topic.
Not sure why. But that is what I see.

I think it's about what history has teached us. Many thought about "righteous" doings and killed millions. Some even killed a deity or two.
Most issues still exist today and that is still killing people, perhaps not where you live. But it is 1000 m. away.
And say you were this total stranger and you see a man walk by in strange clothing, wouldn't you say: "he looks weird" or "What's his religion?"

but how many people in the world will really go up to someone and ask 'what is your religion?'
I have had that happen to me once and it was funnier than hades. He asked me 'do I believe in god?' and I said that I was jedi and that I believe what I want, waved my hand infront of his face (trying the mid trick, didn't work) and walked away. He shouted (in the middle of a crowded place) YOU WILL BURN IN THE FIRES OF HELL! I turned back around and told him that I believe what I believe and that he should rethink what it is that he is saying and walked away once more. That time he left me alone.
I think that religion is something that the masses should not decide, but what every single person should find out for themselves. It should not be pushed on another person. If they want to be like you, then let them follow. If they want to stop you, gladly step to the side.

I had the chance to watch it with my friends but unfortuneately I had no time due to school. I heard it was great though from my friends. What makes it more interesting is that I can understand Arimaic(at least some of it). Me and my friends are all Coptic Orthodox(main group of christianity in Egypt) and so we all know how to speak in Arabic. And interestingly enough Arabic and Aremaic have similar origins so many of the words are the same. Too bad I didnt see it though. I will probably see it though once its on DVD.
Another interesting note is how the media said the movie would failed. Guess that didnt happen. That movie just made millions of dollars, most of which goes to Mel Gibson instead of movie makers because they thought it would be contraversial.
What does every1 else think about the movie?

I think that most people went to see it because they were curious about it. You know. I know i was. I didn't like it though. Some of the stuff, they put wasn't even in the bible. There was a monster in the movie, it was only there for a couple of seconds, but come on. It's the first time I see a movie about Jesus that's rated "R".
