    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    They're obviously waiting to see how the "Muppets" movie fares at the box office. I think Muppet Show edge is what Weinstein was shooting for, but that's not quite the Fraggle brand of humor. Make no mistake, if the Muppets do well the Fraggles will follow. It's just a bit spineless of...

    Disney Dreams Muppet Plush

    Gonzo has worn a daredevil outfit in plush, but the design here, from tights and sneakers to the yellow top with the bedazzled pattern is a direct creation from Palisades series two and never existed before that time.

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I'm glad to have given you something to think about. We don't have to personally agree with one another. I admire your being forthright. It is my feeling that if you heard an Atheist saying, "I just don't know what to think about Christians and whether or not they should be allowed to baptize...

    Disney Dreams Muppet Plush

    When did these come out? I'm seeing them on Amazon for the first time. Apparently they're poseable and come in different sizes. The Kermit, Gonzo and Animal are decent while the Piggy and Fozzie need improvement. :o:mad: I'm thinking that this isn't part of the new push. I'm just tickled how...

    One of the goodies on my Facebook. :)

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I don't believe any thinking person considers the Westboro Church people anything other than poisonous, self-promoting loony birds. However, their message is that permitting gays and other groups equal rights that fall outside of their myopic view of God's law will cause wrath upon the United...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Studying the texts was once fun for me. I used to consider Genesis as a parable; like the 6 days of creation being modeled after lengthy periods of evolution that took place over millions of years. That's why fish and foul came first and the mammals came later. I viewed Eve being made out of...

    Is It Normal For A Diz Film To Have No Hype?

    The Arthur Christmas Teaser looks like an interesting departure, but you never can tell where holiday films are going to go. I initially thought Hop would be a flop, but now I believe it's going to be a smash hit no matter how good or bad it may be. Hugo Cabret doesn't have a trailer yet, but it...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Sorry I got heated too. I don't endorse any religion and all ancient texts seem equally as creepy to me. I was just pointing out the one that corresponds to this thread and that's the one I know most about too. I will admit this little tidbit of truth as an interesting admission and not a...

    Of friggin' course not! We were having a great discussion and then here you go again shoving odd words in my mouth that make me appear to have said something foolish under the guise of a misunderstanding. Let's stop that right now, go back and I'll pretend you didn't just do something completely...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Agreed. But those cultures don't make excuses for it or pretend that it stems from anything but ignorance and fear, particularly of the opposite sex. It's so transparent. They were out doing lady things. Isn't that what y'all do? Kidding. Yeah, you've got me there. Leaving out women in any...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    You're right, but I still feel like the attempt when addressing it is to justify the unjustifiable. I don't care how rotten someone's wife or child behaves or whether it occurred before or after Jesus walked among us - - there is no justification for stoning them. It's Old Testament so I am...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Could it be this particular shade of aggressive evangelism that gives some particular Christians the notion that it's okay to not just share but to enforce their beliefs on others? There's a lot of crazy sounding stuff in the Bible. It amuses me that Christians quickly inform me that they...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Walking in someone else's shoes prevents stepping on toes...and rights! I understand exactly what you're saying. This has already been covered territory, but you're merely stating your beliefs and that's not offensive to me. I also thank you for clarifying that this is your view at the end of...

    Is It Normal For A Diz Film To Have No Hype?

    May 24th will mark exactly 6 months before the premiere. 6 months! That's a long time. Sure, we could talk about teasers and what happened 10 years ago and what's happening with the Smurf blitz and this and that, but this is not that. It's too soon. The film business has changed. I'm not...

    Thanks for saying that and I certainly do trust that's where you're coming from. And believe it or not, I'm just about the same as you are on this but with the other configuration. ;) I think it should be noted that over 90% of Americans identify as Christians while statistically around 10%...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Not true! This is about reaching across the isle specifically with gays and Christians to reach a greater understanding. Gay people's civil rights are being oppressed in this country. Sure, there are other groups oppressing one another here and abroad, but this is about "The Bible, Love and...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Did you watch the YouTube clip? The froggin' thread's about how Christians can show love to non-believers without enforcing their moral views on them socially or politically. I didn't come up with the mission statement here, I'm just upholding it and things keep getting way off the topic...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Not at all! Believe me, I have much to say about the fanatical fringe all religions and causes. Much! Not a fan of fanaticism of anything of the non-Muppety variety. Incidentally, my second bf was kicked out of Queer Nation and Act Up a couple decades ago for being too obnoxiously militant! I've...
