Good movie!

No...great movie.

(Story time...)

When I went to see it, I went with my friends Tatiana and John.

When there, we bumped into our friends Seth and Josh, who were also going to see it.

The five of us sat together in the theater, Tatiana between John and I.

We're all laughing along at the movie, Kevin Smith fans that we are, and then Tatiana leans over and whispers to me, "You realize I'm the only Catholic surrounded by a bunch of Jews?"

She and I giggled over it, and continued to enjoy the movie. It might be one of those things that you had to be there for, though.

I was thinking of clipping out the fave and making it my 'happy' pic. when I went out to see it one of my pals pointed out that I look like him. I can see the hair, but the face isn't the same. :)

Re: mythology...

[isis.livejournal.com]

Mythology and religion are two different things, which go hand in hand. The traditions and holidays are religion, surrounded in mythology. If that makes sense...

On the other hand, there is very little religion in mythology.

Re: mythology.../relig comparison-

Yes, yes. But definitions for terms like religion and mythology can and do go beyond the dictionary and into personal belief.

I think of the bible and torah as mythology, but I have friends who would glare at me for it.

Re: mythology.../relig comparison-

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

I think religion is a subset of mythology.

dogma ROCKS!
