I have no doubt that those who control financing of movies make sure that the Lord's name is used in vain. Call me paranoid but I honestly think they withhold financing for a movie until a certain amount of defamation of God get's put into the script. Have you ever watched a great movie and all of a sudden there it is, somebody mutters it. It seems so out of place. It is very calculating and very intentional.

Gheys in McDonalds, seperation of church and state, unwed mothers, atheists running rough-shod all over the constitution, and now this ?
Truly 'tis the end times. (unlike all those other "end-times")
"I honestly think they withhold financing for a movie until a certain amount of defamation of God get's put into the script."
And you think this . . . why? Did your pastor tell you? Or some TV evangelist? Or did you simply make it up? Or is it that that you are completely and utterly mad? (As well as paranoid, like every fundie, it goes without saying).
fergus
When is the last time you heard "YHWH" used in a movie? I am fairly sure the commandment supposedly written in stone by some burning bush said something about using the name of god in vein not some generic word that could mean any god.
I guess god damn sounds better than YHWH damn, oh well.
I'm quite sure that those same movie content controllers are at work inserting such blasphemy into construction workers' conversations, taxi drivers' speech, Gawd! even the internet.
They are everywhere, watch out!
"Call me paranoid"
Done.
"I honestly think they withhold financing for a movie until a certain amount of defamation of God get's put into the script...It seems so out of place. It is very calculating and very intentional."
It is not defamation of God, it is how people GODDAMNED TALK!!
It's been shown that the line, "let's get outta here" was used in 84 percent of Hollywood movies between 1938 and 1974.
Presumably that was some sort of conspiracy too?
Oh, Jesus Herbert Christ, if Paul seems to feel there's a lot of goddamned cocksucking, mother fucking, pissy, go-to-hell gratuitous swearing by the shitty assholes in the damned movies, it's his dumb-ass opinion. By god's great balls, I don't fucking see it, myself. Up yours, Pauly.
Explain how a movie like Wall-E, with next to no dialogue (and certainly no swears), gets a $180,000,000 budget, then?
Maybe it slides because it everybody calls it a "damn good movie."
Mr Smith and Poisoned Rationality, I like YooHooWooHoo myself.
Blame the Hebrews for being stingy with vowels. Anything to confuse the issue further, eh?
Call me paranoid...
Most delusional paranoiacs aren't this self-aware. Congratulations.
You know, I used to think that my DVD set of "Bottom" was sending me messages through the graffiti on the bathroom walls in the Lamb and Flag.
I got over it with the help of my medication.
It's simple- Hollywood has to try and avoid offending anyone, because a high rating means less profits.
But they've figured out that it's impossible to avoid offending Christians because you ****tards are offended by everything, mainly due to your uncanny ability to see homosexual implications in every single story ever written (look up 'projection', BTW).
So since you're inevitably going to boycott the film, you essentially become 'damage done' and there's no point holding back the stuff that might actually be offensive to you.
Persecution complex much? Seriously, what could they possibly gain from something like that? Maybe, instead of coming up with a bunch of bullshit about satanically controlled film companies, you could get out of your little god-bubble and realize that some people actually talk that way .
Then only time I have ever heard your deity's name taken "in vain" is on House. Every other time I hear people complain about it, someone just used the generic word god. I'd tell you to stop being delusional, but you're probably too far gone.
I know. I was appalled at how many times WALL*E said "sweet shitlicking christ!" and how during Iron Man Robert Downey, Jr., looked right out at the audience and said, "Your god is a lie..."
It's all a conspiracy, man.
Mel Gibson : Okay, so here's my idea. We do a movie about the life of Jesus. We follow the man around as he teaches about unconditional love and forgiveness and brings hope to all mankind.
Investors: Hmmmmmm, we're not sure we want to get behind that. We'll happily give you the money but there's a few changes you're gonna have to make.
--- 3 hours later ---
Mel Gibson : ... okay ... so ... Jesus gets tied to a stake, whipped and beaten to a bloody pulp for a few hours then he gets nailed to a tree while everyone stands around laughing and mocking him.
Investors: Works for us, here's the money. Go shoot that motherfucker. Hail Satan !!
"I have no doubt that those who control financing of movies make sure that the Lord's name is used in vain"
I have no doubt that people who believe this is REALLY the chief goal of movie financiers are mentally delusional. Probably this guy doesn't believe it himself, he just wants to sound impressive with his anti-christian conspiracy theories.
'Call me paranoid but I honestly think they withhold financing for a movie until a certain amount of defamation of God get's put into the script. '
Yup, you're paranoid, all right. Get to a psychiatrist & get your head shrunk, or wait a second, your brain's already atrophied to the size of a pea. Damn! Paul M's off his meds again!
Lemme guess, the J00z are doing it, right? Because this literally sounds exactly like the "Jews control everyday life" conspiracy theories where the Jews always put something in there to make tr00 Aryans seem inferior.
"I have no doubt...", "I think...", "It seems..."
All of which means you're pulling whatever follows those statements out of your ass and are making that claim without any fucking evidence.
"Hey, here's a couple thou, put "God damn it" or "Christ on a cracker" in there somewhere, there's a good little heathen"
Back even in the wonderous perfect 1950s yet. The horror. Be very afraid Paul,,oh, You're already there.
“I have no doubt that those who control financing of movies make sure that the Lord's name is used in vain.”
Actually, authors go to some effort to make sure that a character comes across the screen as realistic.
The movie Venom has a bunch of mercenaries using wimpy insults and soft swears and it’s fucking stupid.
America is largely Christain, swearing Christains throw God’s name around, everyone who swears has been enculturated to use Christain swears, by and large.
However swearing is NOT taking God’s name in vain. When Trump says he’s Christain, that is. When Trump waves his bible (upside down) and can’t even fake naming his favorite scripture, that’s in vain.
That lying, swearing, racist, temper-tantrum-throwing, draft-dodging felon is about as Christain as a statue of Inanna.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
