quote:
A couple got in such a heated argument after seeing "The Passion of the Christ" that they were arrested for fighting.

The two left the theater debating whether God the Father in the Holy Trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit was in human form or spiritual.

When police arrived at their home, the wife had ripped her husband's shirt, and he had punched a hole in the sheet rock near the stairs.

"It was the dumbest thing we've ever done," said 34-year-old Melissa Davidson.

I saw that and thought, what a horrible thing to come to blows over.

Idiots do stupid things all the time. Gibson is no more responsible for this than Marilyn Manson was for columbine.

My friend, until a very short time ago, worked at the movie theater... she said that people stayed after seeing "Passion" and lit candles, and started praying, in the movie theater. I think she quit before it got to the fighting though. [Razz]

I heard this story in the car today. The announcer lead with, "And speaking of totally missing the point..."

The things couples don't discuss before they get married...
P.S. Though this reminds me of the fight my husband and I had when he got Robin Williams in Dead Poets Society mixed up with Kevin Kline in The Emporers Club.
