Point to ponder: Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?
Now that I've got you wheels turning I'm gonna shift gears. (Man, I'm a metaphorical genious. . .) I know we've all heard the buzz concerning Mel Gibson's The passion. With all the controversy it's caused I can't help but be excited about it! Afterall, if it wasn't controversial it'd probably be a watered down,candy coated version of the gospel that so many today are suffice to nibble on. The fact that it is making people angry, excited, scared and utterly remorseful reminds me of the ruckus Christ stirred up 2000 years ago. Those same emotions still run rampant today - afterall, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
There are countless articles and news stories describing the religious fervor thousands of Christians have about this movie. In the end, that's all this is: a movie - some actors, directors, large paychecks, film, popcorn and audiences. But, just look at it's effects! Imagine how Christians could totally transform the face of the nation, continent and world if we were half as impassioned for Jesus Christ as we are for this movie.
