Luthien Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 [quote name='Theoketos' date='Mar 26 2005, 09:07 PM'] This is not to mention that the swear words in the movie infects the soul like a small but puss filled wound from a tiny splinter. Enough of these and one may die. [/quote] Ill agree on the swearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IXpenguin21 Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 ok, i think we all agree that the swearing isn't our favorite part, as no one has included a swear in their favorite quotes, i.e. what this thread was origionally created to discuss.

IXpenguin21 Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 if you want to argue the ethics of this good argument, please start your own thread. as i've said before, this is not a thread for judgments and everyone to be everyone else's gardian angel.

Theoketos Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 For those of you who consider your self innocent please do not read the following... While I have not seen the movie in a few years... the most memorable parts of the Movie... When the non Irish dude fondled the girl's breast. When the Mobster they killed was watching porn and masterbatting When the sweet old man from fragal rock let loose a string of cuse words. When they recieved a vision from God that told them to kill people. (Sounds familiar to the Islam's Jihad) When the lead detective woke up from bed with another man. [sarcasm] Yeah sounds like a movie that the Church faithful should be encouraged to watch. [/sarcasm And honestly, that it associates the holy mother Church with it makes me puke. And the worst part is that is shows the Church condoning villigilante Justice. Lord Have Mercy on Us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IXpenguin21 Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 thank you once again for preaching to the choir. all things posess a good in proper order under the highest good. no one is taking the message of this movie as the higher good, or even out of proper order. the movie is art, and ment to leave an impression on its audience. granted, this may be a bad thing. but do not make the judgment that people whom you do not know have fallen to that poor image of the church ([b]which is never identified as the Catholic church[/b]). this thread isn't about the movie as a whole, but simply the quotes that some of us may have found entertaining, inpsirational, or something in the middle. NOT for criticising the Chatholicism of the movie. if an inspirational quote was found in the book of mormon or the koran, it may serve as a good though the colective work may not be good at all. both of those documents aim at a good for their audience so elements of good can be found in them. they, like the movie [i]The Boondock Saints[/i], are imperfect, so aren't 100% good, as no one here is claiming them to be.

Theoketos Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 If the choir is watching an intrisically disordered movie and celebrating the fact that it exists then maybe some one needs to take the cotton out of thier ears. [quote]all things posess a good in proper order under the highest good. no one is taking the message of this movie as the higher good, or even out of proper order.[/quote] The goods that this "art" posess are disordered. That is to say that they do not lead in this particular case to the highest good. If you are arguing for the art is worthy of consideration for the sake of the art and so that a message is communicated, the I ask that you take a look at what message is being communicated. God tells people to kill. This is not a good message. [quote]this thread isn't about the movie as a whole, but simply the quotes that some of us may have found entertaining, inpsirational, or something in the middle. NOT for criticising the Chatholicism of the movie.[/quote] I am making this thread or hijacking it so it is about the movie as a whole. While I am no judge of your soul, promoting this movie is scandalous. It is in most cases a sin to watch it, the gravity or culpability of the sin depends on your part. I am sure that it was a sin for me to watch it, and I vow never to watch it again, and I want to prevent other brothers and sisters from falling into the same trap. I am not only critiquing then the Catholicism in the movie, but the movie it self. Even if the Catholic Church had nothing to do with the Movie, which it obviously does, the movie would still be a scandal. [quote]if an inspirational quote was found in the book of mormon or the koran, it may serve as a good though the colective work may not be good at all. both of those documents aim at a good for their audience so elements of good can be found in them. they, like the movie The Boondock Saints, are imperfect, so aren't 100% good, as no one here is claiming them to be.[/quote] The book of mormon et etc does not have nudity or swearing and does not claim to speak for the Catholic Church. But I would say that these documents are still dangerous to read for a young or gullable faithful. And thus they should be read with some one who knows enough to give a fair argument for the Church on these matters. Though It would not be a sin to read those things. But if some one were to come on here and exhonerate these books, I would be quick to point out that they are not the fullness of the Truth, while agreeing with good I would point out the falseness. So in a way I do support the good that is in movie and those documents. But the Movie has so much more bad than good, and way more dangerous to the youth on this board, that it would be really awesome for this thread to never have been started. But since it has, it is my duty to warn the youth. The good that is in the movie are also bad... I would assert that the pleasure (which is a good) that the movie trys to communicate is geared toweard idle laughter at best, and at worst it arouses the passions over the will.

You seem to just want to list quotes which would seem to be appropriate in the 'open mic' area as opposed to the 'debate table' which is generally used for, well, debate.
