Post by: Sikotic™ on April 29, 2010, 05:31:41 PM

Personally, I love Western movies, and in recent years the Deadwood series.. the outlaw survival of the fittest culture is very fascinating, imo..

THe story of jesus christ wasn't too impressive to begin with.

So many women claim to be virgin when they turn out to be pregnant it just means you're a lying slut.
And wasn't the entire crowd already wasted when jesus allegedly turned water into wine?
David Blane can probally pull of a resurrection as well
