Fallen Angel (religion lovers beware) - Grinning - Page 2

Logical · 11:22 PM

I was at the movies today and saw a preview for a new TV series that I believe it said will be called something like "Fallen Angel"

I deeply hope it is a storyline based on the evils of organized religion. That would be truly sweet and I bet would have both a huge following and the RRWNJs writing letters and emails till their fingers fell off.

Anybody seen this preview and know the exact name and what network it will be on?

I am imagining a story with a fallen angel who lead different organized religious groups over the ages in horrors perpetrated by organized religions against mankind. Present day Muslim terrorists, Irish Republican Catholics, Catholic Priests against young boys, Nuns over the ages against victimized orphans and students, the Crusades. Well you get the idea. There would be a set of characters who are reincarnated in the different times to fight and eventually the defeat the evils of organized religion.

Bah, there's no such thing as a conservative republican anymore...the party's moved too far to the "moderate" zone.

There is such a thing, just for some reason none of them seen to be running things.

Eh, they are there--they've just been "marginalized"--as they should be. The Republicans are just smart enough to placate their fringe with rhetoric, and no action....while my party seems hell-bent on self-destruction by eschewing 'electability' for sticking to their (LWNJ) 'principles.'

good = Jesus
Jesus = right
right = conservativism
Jesus = conservative
conservatives = good

No reason for the Republicans to leave the conservative values that they're supposed to have.

The intersection of politics and values is difficult and treacherous to navigate; one must tread carefully...

Thanks Robb, my German is only good enough to break down the component words. This must have a special meaning when coupled.

No prob. Same as English words, when combined, take on new meanings.

Just out of curiosity, what is it about organized religion that you have something against? Is it that it doesn't encourage thinking on their own?

Just curious, not looking for an argument.

Moooo

That is a huge part of it.

Not to shit on your thread, Jim, but shit happens anytime you get a group of people united under one epistemological belief. Not just religion, but anti-religion as well, including fascism of ALL types, not just nazism. And let's not forget the Stalinist USSR. These were far from theocracies, but as far as argument is concerned, their uniting beliefs did as much, if not more damage than many cases of religious terror throughout history. They may as well have been an extremist theocracy
