    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Romans 13 to be exact We'd gotten to the verse where is listed sins we are not to practice and instead of saying sexual immorality in answer to a question about what sins were mentioned I said sexual immortality. got a good laugh from my fellow Bible Study fellowship group. I made the mistake one day in Pal talk of mentioning this in Paltalk one day and have not heard the last of it from Nick and the Teasers. I will not be telling you what my husband and I were up to the night before my Bible Study Fellowship class that is best left behind the curtain

              1. Dune
              2. Angus Dei
              3. Sexual Immortality


              I can't seem to remember the rest.

                my feelings on what happened in the last 15 minutes of the David lynch dune movie is well known and one of the Teasings I am inflicted with by a group of young twebbers who loved to tease me. Unknown Comic must be one of my teasers trying to hide his true identity.

                    The last 15 minutes is Kyle Mclaughlin riding a giant sand worm into battle with Toto playing in the background, and then Mclaughlin killing Sting with the power of his voice without a modulating device, which was totally cool.

                          yep. I tried to read it several times and couldn't get through more than a few chapters. boring.

                            There were two things that I didn't enjoy about it. I felt the world that Herbert created was just too visually mundane compared to the wacko-rich world that Lynch gave us (I seem to remember visualizing Duke Leto's digs on his homeworld looking like some sort of wealthy Texas ranch, for some reason), and I felt that Herbert had a compulsion of demystify the magic of his world through science. The Bene Gesserit weren't really prophetic witches, who had predicted the coming of a Messiah, but had instead orchestrated the whole thing millennia back. So it took all of these wonderful spiritual concepts and sort of materialized them. It was a bit of a let down. And then you find out that in later books Paul probably wasn't the Messiah figure everyone thought he was to begin with...

                            I don't know, its been a long time since I read the original novel, and I've never read the sequels. I'm a huge Lynch fan, and I desperately want to see a director's cut from him, but I know that's not going to happen. In the meantime, there are some fantastic fan edits, and really I'm happy with the theatrical version as is.

                            I'm a big fan of the surrealist director Alejandro Jodorowsky as well, and watched a recent documentary on his take on Dune. He was the one who was supposed to direct it before Lynch came on board. He was essentially done with the pre-production, including detailed storyboards and cast selection, but they couldn't find a backer for the project. Half the crew that split from that project went on to make Alien. If people thought that Lynch departed from the source material, they would have totally flipped had Jodorowsky's vision been accomplished.

                              Don't feel too bad. Several years ago while DMing a session of D&D instead of saying that there was "a huge black organism of some sort on the ceiling" I said (as you can probably guess) "a huge black orgasm of some sort on the ceiling." Yeah, I still here about that one from time to time.

                              I'm always still in trouble again
