Bendigo is in the goldfields - beautiful old buildings, unbelievable gardens, right into sport, really good looking place.
Very multi cultural - stong Indigenous history, huge Chinese history (museum, gardens, joss house etc etc), heaps of Karen refugess, biggest Buddhist Temple and Centre so u can see it very multi cultural
What we dont have is a mosque. What the Muslims are planning to build is a mosque.
OMG = Shame Job = people are protesting, I am so embarrassed by these people. Why these people do this? Are they ignorant or what? Or are they really truly scared these Muslims (Who live here already) are all of a sudden gonna turn into terrorists cos they have a mosque? This is very weird.................. they pray now but at the Uni, there be a prayer room, whatever thats called, they want there own place.
So I ask these people - "What exactly is the problem here?" And I get stuff like "terrorists, go home to their own country (When they say this I lift an eyebrow and stare at em but they miss it ofcourse)
Im not Muslim, I dont even know a Muslim but I dont understand one bit why we protest against people wanting a church, this embarrasses me LOL
Do you people have mosques near you? Is this a big deal?

Yep, if you click on the link to read the full article, you get the truth.
It was the way the headline was written that I didn't like.

I have accepted long ago that no movie (that I have seen) about the Bible follows the Bible with any degree of accuracy - and by the look of the reviews, this one is the worst.
Not even Passion of the Christ?
sorry for being off topic...

The point I was making about Jews being involved in the making of the film is just that - the Old Testament at least has a Jewish / Israelite basis - so if anyone should be against it, it should be the Jews - if they are true Jews....

thats right. there are too many different views to please everyone . they ought to make a zombie film instead.
at least charlton Heston is gone.

what about the musical - Jesus Christ Superstar, wasn't that real? The songs were pretty cool and Jon English played a pretty good Judas in the Australian theatre production.
