A Fine Member of Mel Gibson's Target Audience
"A man suspected of setting up a video camera in a women's restroom and taping little girls getting undressed has been arrested in Bossier City.
Jose Maria Ardon, 34, is wanted in Titus County, Texas on suspicion of improper photography or visual recording. Authorities said the camera was found in a restroom of the radio station where Ardon worked.
Titus authorities told Bossier City police they thought Ardon had moved to Bossier after he was questioned about the hidden camera. He was arrested Tuesday night after being spotted riding in a church van. Congregation members were going to see the movie "The Passion of the Christ." "

1. Lets not play this game
Yes some bad people believe in god and will go see Mel's movie. This is an invalid criteria to critique either the religion or the movie through. It is a logical fallacy called unrepresentitive sample. It really does not serve the dialog.

2. Thank
you, as a member of a church I am sickened when someone does something like this. People will take things like this a paint the church community with it.

5. Many Bad People Hide Behind Their Religion
I know several women who were molested as young girls by elders in their churches. And let's not forget such "good Christians" as Jimmy Swaggart and Jim & Tammy Bakker.

Yes, there are good people in the Christian faith. But you also have to acknowledge that there are bad people as well.
