"So I Came..."

The Last Temptation of Christ is the most homoerotic portrait of Jesus I have ever seen. Holy Jesus/Judas, Batman! (THEY MAKE OUT. I AM NOT KIDDING.)

And, uh, since I'm supposed to be actually watching it, here in class, I should probably get off the computer and focus. Oh, man, I'm already tired, though. It is so psychedelic and wild.

(Awww, Jesus' mother showed up at his crucifixion, even though he totally sucked and told her she wasn't his mother any more and made her cry. <3 Mary.)

(Also, blood does not really spurt that way. I happen to know it doesn't, I punctured my foot yesterday, and it drips and pools, so don't you start with me with all this SPLURT nonsense.)

I just. I don't know how to argue, because I just think it's so closed off to new things. I mean, I consider myself a fairly religious person, and I like to learn about other ways that people view Jesus. I think it's really interesting. And when I don't agree, I don't agree, you know? I don't feel the need to make a protest or anything. I don't need to tell the other person (or film or play or song) that s/he/it is wrong, because I know what I believe and I'm fine with that. And it's really purely individual what they believe.

But I also don't believe in seeking converts, so this could maybe be the root of the issue in a way.
