My friend and I were planning on going to Band Wars in Toronto. Her and I just got our tickets today, and when she got home she called saying she doesn't want to go anymore. I hope I find someone to go with. Damn friends.
I don't wanna call my Dad.....stupid family.....gah.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.
I kind of want to see Passion of Christ for all of the controversy, but Cain doesn't want me to see it because I'm Jewish and he doesnt want me offended. I don't really think I would be.

^^You wont be if you go in with an open mind. Every character besides the Romans in that movie is a Jew. Some are bad but of course some are very good. Jesus of course was a Jew as well as his followers. That and the romans are the ones shown as the cruel ones, not the Jews. Honestly i dont get what the big deal is. So what if theres an "angry Jewish mob." That in no way means that all Jews are like that. Just like the Germans in Shindlers List doesnt represent every German out there.

I'm Jewish too, and in no way should that stop you. If you end up being offended, it won't be because of bible misinterpretations. It will be the violence.
People take this a little seriously. One movie is not going to turn the world on the jews. Gibson did turn some quotes and stuff around, and it sure doesn't benefit us, but it's not the end of the world. If we get agitated, that's when the world notices us and hates us. We should just let this slide since it won't do anything.

im jewish(ish) too. and i think its incredibly stupid that people are taking gibson's artistic view on something as reality. i dont especcially want to see it though...don't get what's so great about it. i've seen movies about jesus's life, what makes this one different?
they spit on and degrade him big time. what other movie are you going to see Jesus getting spit on? and what an ass kicking he took. when they put him on the cross this time, it was nasty, he didn't look human.
i don't see anything in that movie that would offended anyone.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown
