Here I am still procrastinating. mile:
So I may as well ask the ultimate philosophical/intellectual question:
For its original theatrical run, would it have been wrong to see Passion of the Christ and simultaneously purchase/consume a bag of popcorn?
Let me just say that I do not attend church, am not overly religious in any sense, I consider myself spiritual blah blah yahoo yahoo that whole speech. : ) I'm bringing my thoughts essentially as an observer.
However, I have consistently found myself baffled by this question. Popcorn + Passion of the Christ? Perhaps it's because I see popcorn as something you consume when you are about to see something you WANT to see, like a movie, etc. I don't go to many horror thrillers so I don't have that aspect to bring to this question, but somehow I think a hardcore Christian might need to look themselves over again before they eat popcorn while simultaneously watching Passion of the Christ. I am sure everyone understands the significance of this deeply philosophical/intellectual question (perhaps even meta-physical..mile, and I'm sure everyone will consider their conclusion carefully. I think it would be wrong to eat popcorn while watching your savior lord savior person etc die a horrible and painful death. Your thoughts!
