What Bible are you reading? it is people like you that have raped the name of Jesus to such a grotesque extent that nobody in his/her right mind would want to worship the God you claim to serve.<BR/>I can only pray that somehow only the few losers who read this blog will ever see these posts: God knows what a non-believer would think if he/she ever stumbled upon this garbage. you all should be ashamed of yourselvesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423334899663792596.post-46424294956819775152008-02-20T16:27:00.000-08:002008-02-20T16:27:00.000-08:00Interesting that you say that, Matt.

The traits you stated about Leonidas sounds a lot like Jesus to me: <BR/><I>- uncompromising in [his] values<BR/>- in the face of insurmountable odds stick with what [his] heart beats for<BR/>- refuses to compromise even unto death<BR/>- passion and commitment</I><BR/><BR/>I think you're right on, Matt. We want to be a part of something bigger. And we can.

I think that it's more that most all of us have a desire to be caught up in something that is bigger than ourselves, a cause that we can be invited into and fight for. We want to be part of a grand and epic story, rather than trudging to work every day or living a life of mediocrity or insignificance. <BR/><BR/>I also think we admire people who are uncompromising in their values, who in the face of insurmountable odds stick with what their heart beats for. I think we all wish, on some level, that we could be these kinds of people. It's difficult to do that in the real world because many situations have multiple shades of gray, or because we often have conflicting desires. We cheer for King Leonidas because he refuses to compromise even unto death, and I think we all wish we could have that kind of passion and commitment to something.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02611158496452763039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423334899663792596.post-90535664049566117712008-02-19T13:38:00.000-08:002008-02-19T13:38:00.000-08:00Hmmm... yeah, that's interesting that you also fee...Hmmm... yeah, that's interesting that you also feel "like fighting and being all tough and stuff" after watching those types of movies, but is it the same kind of <I>deep desire</I> feeling? I really don't know. It's tough to know the difference between a God-created desire and a socially created desire.Aaron Riedlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01562227504110310099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423334899663792596.post-45577878429262236262008-02-19T13:16:00.000-08:002008-02-19T13:16:00.000-08:00Whoa mama...I need to see this movie ASAP. Haha. :...Whoa mama...I need to see this movie ASAP. Haha. : )<BR/>But yeah...I know what you're saying. I actually feel like fighting and being all tough and stuff after I see movies like that, too. What does that say about me, as a woman? Maybe I'm not as aggressive as you, as a man, but I definitely have the urge to fight and attack.
