the Rosicruscians have an interesting take on what things jesus had exposed himself to in various lands during the missing years that the NT doesnt account for, there is a book titled, THE MYSTICAL LIFE OF JESUS which ironically enough has nothing to do with anything mystical, in fact it focuses mostly on the human side of jesus which is usually not really discussed . . . . . . .btw thanks for the link leolala, interesting reading on that page

All Scripture Inspired?
by Carmel inlet's assume you believe that jesus was the "son of god" had a direct link to all knowledge, okay?
would it be fair to conclude that he was "informed" of the other greater and older civilizations around the world as he trudged from nazareth to jerusalem?
would he not also be aware of zoroaster, relatively next door, chrisna and buddha further to the east?

PASSION of the Christ
by myownsaviorthankyoumuch inwondering if anyone has seen it yet, and what the general consensus was around here.
i saw it a week ago this coming monday, overall i liked it, and didnt really see what the controvesy was, thought that the aramaic w/ english subtitles was a nice touch, cinematography was great, watching mary's griefmoved me a whole lot more than watching jesus get tortured, satan rocked visually, i especially enjoyed the fact that he was portrayed by a female, [that was not a comment to instigate the femenists on the board] though he had one too many hollywood moments, i really like the fact that jesus actually came across as arrogant, not the weakling he is always portrayed as during the easter season, he actually had some nads, and had something to say, that was cool, made him a lot more real in my eyes, after walking out of the theater though, i could only keep thinking to myself this was such a tragedy in the likes of homer, a hero bound for disaster, a legend told through the centuries, much like king arthur became a legend based on the events of a real man, im thinking the same must have happened with him, 80 flogs with bamboo into it i was thinking endorphines and adrenaline, yet it kept going into a second round, how he was able to walk after that and carry a cross, seemed a bit ludicrous, comments??

six, im gonna have to agree with you on that, no loving god would put anyone through all that, much less his own "blood", im sure someone who designed galaxies would have a more intellectual approach to saving humanity,--- if indeed it was necessary to do so --- than putting his "only begotten" through so much pain so that we would be saved from our so called "sins", seems like a whole lot of mythology to me,

what is it with you people who cant grip that satan was PORTRAYED by a female actress???? geez, no need to read into it that deeply . . . .on the baby being carried by satan, it was a taunt on satan's behalf, im not getting how that isnt clear, granted that it wasnt a passage in the bible, or for that matter in any of the "accepted" gospels, that scene just played on the idea that satan taunted jesus throughout his life, for crying out loud i havent touched a bible in almost a decade and i still remember that jesus was tempted several times while in the dessert, Mr. Gibson used his directing power to insinuate that the devil was constantly taunting jesus throughout the years that he was on earth doing god's will, right up until the moment of his death, and he failed miserably, thus the cry of despair in the next to final scene after jesus' death, the fact that it was a child in his arms, again was a taunt, jesus seemed to be energized whenever he saw his mary, by carying a child it was like "look i have a child, and look its safe in my arms, and look at how your mother is suffering watching you suffer," c'mon people its the devil here, not a nice person supposedly, he was kicking him when he was down so to speak and was doing all in his power to make jesus slip and not carry out his "duty"

Berten, of which satanists do you refer to when you say "they love to see people suffer", Anton LaVey's or Jerry Springer's??? what i did find strange was how the PhD who wrote the article in your link made the connection of the masonic eye to jesus' one shut eye, a bit of a reach i think, i do have to say though, that while watching, i could imagine how in between takes the joking that usually goes on could have reached some incredible heights of offensiveness for some, i am a fan of south park and off colored jokes, so personally i would not have been too affected, but i can only imagine

Lyineyes, i am one of those movie goers that sits through the credits if i like the movie, or if something catches my attention and i want to know who was responsible for what i liked, in this particular case, i stayed for the credits cuz i thought satan was beautiful, and in all reality it makes sense, cuz wasnt Lucifer the most beautiful angel ever created? before i digress i have a fascination for the grotesque, i was intrigued by the character and i wanted to know who the actor was, turns out when i read the credits it was a woman's name next to satan, thus all the reference to satan being a woman in this film
