  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Am I the only Christian here that was disturbed by all the blasphemy? Cry??? I didn't shed a tear or even come close, and I cry at TV commercials. While the film was well made and the special effects were top notch, why oh why does Hollywood insist on making films that take the Lord's name multiple times? I think the only thing Adrien Brody ever said was "Christ". He had no lines to memorize!

Sorry, but I can't give my stamp of approval to a film that uses my savior's name as a cuss word, I don't care if it's a 3 hour epic like Kong. :sigh: :cry:

I just watched "King Kong' and although I loved the movie I have to agree with you, I was very offended too when they used the Lord's name like that, I actually screamed at my TV screen.

Someone mentioned that God was awesome and his name should be used in awe or something like that, but this was outright blasphemy. In one particular scene the actor used 'Christ' as a cuss word. A common cuss word to express his disgust.

In the scene where they were climbing out of the pit from the insects I think (the quality of the DVD was poor so I may have mis-heard it) one of the guys said: "Thank God!" and another guy said, "Don't thank God (or did he say Carl) thank the captain. He's the one that told us to form a search party."

Another member said that if you were Christ-filled you'd understand why we feel this way. That is the ONLY way anyone would understand how we feel. :(

I don't want to get deeper into this but I'll just say the movie was great, it had a bit of everything. I cried, I laughed and I cheered on Kong in the fight scenes. I also thought the natives were a bit too freaky. I was also amazed; amazed that Jimmy shot at that guy with a machine gun and didn't hit him. I was also amazed that the black guy didn't die first. :o
