Why?

I find myself asking this question constantly lately in context with a certain group of people. "Christians". Why do they insist on doing what they do.

Why is a Christian Lifestyle needed in order to have a christian lifestyle?
Are they that scared to just talk to people?

Why do they feel the need to "make" their own culture and not just "live" their own culture?
Are actions really that obsolete now?

Why do they need their own clothing lines, their own novelty accessories, their own food companies, their own @#%&!$ commercial market?
Are they so bored with their money they can't be more constructive with it?

Why does a shirt and a pair of jeans have to be what makes you not of this world?
Is taking the time to have a relationship with someone in order to share your beliefs so time consuming?

Why do they make their own industry apart from all others?
Are the rest of world's companies run by robots and don't have any employees in need of love?

Why do they fill the world with more commercialism, possessions, materials?
Isn't their job hard enough as it is?

Why?

Why does real truth, life & love need a catchy slogan and screen printed material in order to be heard?

The Mimzies Have Eyes

Movie Mistake: Families Get Horror Film

Email this Story

Apr 7, 6:59 AM (ET)

HOLTSVILLE, N.Y. (AP) - An audience expecting to watch a family film was stunned to get an glimpse of a horror movie, which left some parents shaken and the theater chain apologizing for the movie mix-up.

The moviegoers were expecting to see "The Last Mimzy," the PG-rated tale of a brother and sister who discover a mysterious box of toys and become endowed with superhuman powers to help preserve humanity's future.

Instead, the crowd saw the opening scene of "The Hills Have Eyes 2," the R-rated sequel to a recent remake of a 1977 horror classic by the genre's renowned director, Wes Craven. The film centers on National Guard troops who stumble on a clan of mutant cannibals and starts with a chained woman giving birth to a mutant.

"There were kids that were crying, there were people trying to cover the kids' eyes, they were caught off guard," said Anthony Rasco, who was in the audience when the scene was unexpectedly shown Thursday in one of the theaters at the Island 16 multiplex.

Another patron said the episode had left his 3-year-old son with lingering, and unsettling, questions.

"My wife is eight months pregnant, and he's been asking, 'Is that what mommy's going to have?'" said Frank Doll, 31, of Mastic.

Theater staffers soon stopped the movie, gave the patrons free ticket vouchers, and started "The Last Mimzy" about a half-hour late, according to parents.

National Amusements Inc., which operates the Island 16 and about 1,500 other movie screens in the United States and elsewhere, expressed "deepest apologies" in a statement Friday.

"We are working with our theater's managers to correct this situation and ensure that it does not happen again," said the statement from the company, based in Dedham, Mass.

Sir Paul Hewson



Bono was knighted last week. I like what he said about what to call him:

"You have permission to call me anything you want — except sir, all right? Lord of lords, your demigodness, that'll do,"

Didn't know you could be knighted even if you aren't a citizen of England. Read the full article if you want.
