it's fine enough that the god-man turns the other cheek. that's only responsible (i'm thinking more of superman to make his analogy work; jesus isn't really all that powerful from what we see in the gospels), but he can't tell us to do the same thing! we're vulnerable humans! there's a difference between being a bully and defending yourself or your friends. there's more than just two choices.

this offends me both as an atheist and as an animation enthusiast.

@taffysaur If Jesus were ONLY as powerful as Superman, turning the other cheek would be something, but he is much more powerful. He created the world. When He came to earth, He limited his power and became one of us, occasionally performing miracles so the world would know who He is. Jesus is not a bully, but God. He doesn't have to defend Himself. Instead He chose to take our place and die for of our sins, and one day He will either defend us, or condemn us. The choice is yours.

[taffysaur]

then my point becomes all the more stronger.

if he's all-powerful, it's no problem to turn the other cheek.

i'm not all powerful. + i have to defend myself if i can.

@taffysaur my freind, i beg to differ, jesus is all powerfull. you have simply been confused.

The film was enjoyable all the same. Some critique. Probably you've moved way passed them already and I understand this was likely done on a tight budget. For the modeling, the square legs and static wrinkles dont look good. For the deformation, the bone weighting or joint compensation could certainly have used more tweaking here and there. Animation looked good at times. Especially how the short fat guy lands his feet exiting the trick. Was that and all the walking mocap?

Believe what you want if it makes you act kindly to others. As long as people follow the golden rule (which is understood by most already at a young age) everything is ok. It does seem some (selfish and egocentric) people need a refresher every know and then, so reading it in a holy book (whichever works;it's just to add credibility) is ok. Or just stick to your core principles always.

"Jesus created the universe". I never understood Christian Jesus/Mary or Icon worship. What part of Abrahams classes did you miss? No icon worships! Don't worship anyone but God! Jesus was not God. God is not a man, he cannot die on a cross. If Jesus was God then God died on the cross. And if you say he did not die, then Jesus is a trickster. Sorry but you cannot mix the Jesus thing with the Old Testament. They are incompatible.

@mehja1 Oh, and "working on the sabbath" is the one commandment that was done away with. (Romans 14:5)

"Man was not created for the sabbath, but the sabbath for man."

-Jesus Christ.

[tripletrules]

@mehja1 He revealed Himself by literally changing my entire worldview overnight while I was alone in my dorm room at college, and then convicting my heart of my sins (which never happened before), and causing me to see my own wickedness in the light of His holiness, which overwhelmed me to such an extent that I fell to my knees and wept in humiliation.

No other god did that for me. No other god woke me up from my slumber.

I never heard a voice or saw a vision. It was purely spiritual.

[tripletrules]

@mehja1 Jesus hated religion, and He came to abolish it. Religion is what killed Jesus actually. Religion is trying to please God with your own holiness. Jesus said "apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5)

God is just in slaughtering the wicked because God does not take pleasure in it (Ezekiel 18:23) and therefore we can assume that God would much rather the wicked turn to Him and repent.

Oh you will see fire rain...just not right now. (And murder is illegal for Christians. John 16:2-3)

[mehja1]

@tripletrules Are you a better person just because you are religious?

(If not it would beg the question: what is the point, except you getting a big reward?)

.

Are you following the ten commandment, e.g. to holy the sabbath?

If I am a doctor and also work on the sabbath I am evil, right?

In my experience religious people don't care about their own laws (if they even know them) but when they sin it is OK - I am not perfect but my God is. He forgives me so I am better than you.

Double standards?
