Resist Unreasonable Authority

Not that I'm an anarchist or anything, but let's hear it for those who resist authority.

Moviegoers Ignore Vatican

  1. The best way to motivate me is to tell me, "You can't do that."

    Pooks, I often have the same reaction. I think it's my left over 60s problem with authority.

    Todd, it's certainly not the smartest move on their part.

  4. It's smart in that it will keep the true believers away -- those who believe they don't dare ignore the Vatican, which is millions. Ya gotta protect the sheep from heretics, ya know.

    American Catholics are notoriously independent, but I suppose there are some who will comply. When I was a kid, the local parish used to post a list of movies Catholics weren't supposed to see on the door of the church.

    There's a line from an old Jimmy Buffet song --

    "Religion's in the hands of some crazy-ass people."

    Yep.
