		<description>Toch
your church and family are lying to you pal.

why the hell would anyone be jealous of your directing prowess? you put a couple non-good actors in bedsheets and you call that directing? 

we make negative comments because we &quot;know nothing about the art of (shitty) filmmaking &quot;</description>

		<description>Yep, I pretty much think the same. The people who doesn&#039;t acknowledge my genius and my natural superiority, and of course my handsome looks, are either silly, blind, or obviously jealous</description>

		<description>No, I&#039;m not weak. Weak is not being able to get away from the cult that has brainwashed you. Check the history - all of it - of the cult to which you belong. You won&#039;t of course, if you&#039;re at the point where you&#039;re eager to make a fool of yourself in public by producing films depicting ridiculous fairytales as fact, then you&#039;re probably not really interested in questioning these beliefs.  I know nothing of film-making and make no comment on this, only the content which has proved to be daft fairytales devised to control the weak minded (oh and while the churches make this crap up, destroy the lives of millions, start wars with people who believe equally stupid but slightly different crap, and make lots of money from it, they want tax breaks and charitable status). If there is indeed a hell, I can assure you it won&#039;t be atheists going there.</description>

		<description>I wrote and directed this piece and I have received nothing but positive feedback from my church group and family. The people who speak of weak production values know nothing about the art of filmmaking and are obviouisly jealous of my directing prowess. Why make negative comments? Because you are weak.</description>

		<description>&quot;There is a battle raging over your soul.  Well... not really a &lt;em&gt;battle&lt;/em&gt; so much as a violent... hrm, well, actually, a very civil chess match.&quot;

And, just like Christians, God refuses to play by the rules.  He waits until you have him cornered, then kicks the board over and declares victory.</description>

		<description>Not only did the Angel play chess badly, he was such a poor loser he cheated. But rather than dirty his own hands, he took advantage of a deranged girl to ruin the game for him. But he wasn&#039;t satisfied just scattering the pieces and storming away like a six year old. Despite most of the pieces lying on the floor and the position not even being legal (the black king was in check, but it was white&#039;s move), he decided to &quot;finish&quot; it. He further forced the lunatic to move one of his pieces for him. Specifically, she placed the king in an impossible double-check, which the poor girl, barely able to contain herself in her manic state, incorrectly referred to as &quot;checkmate.&quot;

It is no wonder the director stopped filming after that. I shudder to think what may have followed.</description>

		<description>I won my best friend&#039;s soul in a game of Madden 6 years ago.  I then wagered his soul 3 more times to accumulate 3 other friend&#039;s souls.

Two of them have since realized that they never had souls to begin with...kudos to them...the other two still try to get their soul back.</description>

		<description>Yes, wonder bread is exactly what you need when your family is starving. So, they were suddenly not broke anymore and never again hungry after that?
It&#039;s not like one of them would maybe have stolen the bread from the supermarket and not told the others?</description>

		<description>well yeah (duh) :)
&#039;Here I am, having created all that exists (except myself), being all-powerful. But sadly (and this really makes me, the ever unchanging and never self-contradicting one, very sad) I&#039;ll have to let you go to hell, a place that was never intended for humans which I knew when I created it, to be tortured forever (which I have decreed in my absolutely perfect state of moral goodness), because I&#039;ve made this law (knowing exactly what it would lead to) and it can&#039;t change because I&#039;m so intelligent and can do everything. Except think of anything else but to send a version of myself to a region of Earth populated by mostly illiterate and violent people to have it sacrificed to myself to replace the sacrifice you would otherwise have been because I noticed this little loophole in my perfect law. See, in all my perfection there&#039;s got to be sacrifice made to me because I need nothing and love you.&#039;</description>
