I know.

But still, nobody wants their daughter, sister, aunt, wife and/or mother to be violated by a bunch of horny enemy grunts.

I'm no Theologian, nor have I read the Bible front to back, but isn't the story of Samson in Judges?
That was one of my favorites.

Understood. While I consider myself a Christian (raised Lutheran), I also am a realist.unriggable wrote:And one of the most annoying ones EVER. Bible fans take this as truth yet can't believe he story of Heracles.
Personally, I look at the Bible as a "why" things happen, not "what exactly" happened. IMHO, one cannot dismiss science, it defies logic.
That being said, I don't know why you'd consider the story of Samson "annoying". I think it has all the makings for a great movie:
Big, strong, invincable dude who kicks major ass, betrayed by a woman (go figure
I mean, c'mon, wouldn't that be cool on the big screen?

The reason I hate it is because of its clicheosity.

Samson was in the Book of Judges. So was Debra, a prophetess-general.Iz Man wrote:Boadicea. There's always the exception.Jenos Ridan wrote:Read your history Iz. Ever hear of Boudica? How 'bout that lady in the Book of Judges?

And the Ancient Celts (ie: pre-Roman) commanly sent married couples into battle, the wife fought along side the husband.

It was how her name was originally spelled, and how she was referred to by the Romans.
Who really cares?
