Star Wars Fans in Line... at the Wrong Theater

Rollie Hawk writes "More than a month before the premiere of Revenge of the Sith, fans are already lining up. Outside Grauman's Chinese Theater, eleven diehard Star Wars fans (i.e. lifelong virgins) are waiting for tickets to go on sale. Unfortunately, it appears that the guys with girlfriends will have the last laugh as the Chinese Theater isn't even premiering the film."

    Being a virgin beats having your genitals infected with STDs, being completely pussy whipped by some fucking idiot whore, and destroying your life with obese parasitic pyschotic kids. Masturbation gives you a 10 times better orgasm and you don't feel guilty afterwards. And acne is fun to pop.

    Sounds like you may have gotten picked on in highschool. I only comment on it because you sound a bit bitter. Personally I think its hilarious that these guys are such idiots. The type of nerd I pride myself on being is not the type that would stand out side any theatre (let alone the wrong one) to wait for any of the massed produced pieces of crap we call movies to be released. See there are the smart nerds and then there are the people who really are just clueless about life. which are you?

    There is nothing in the text to indicate it is a "foreshadowing" of the messiah. Ahaz was told that he would receive a sign, and Isaiah 7:14 was that sign. That was what this section was about, not a future messiah. What does a guy born 600 years later have to do with Ahaz? Nothing.

    And as usual, christians ignore the context. Just look at verse 16:

    For, when the lad does not yet know to reject bad "and choose good, the land whose two kings you dread, shall be abandoned."

    Did this happened in JC's lifetime? Nope.

    If you actually study the history of Ahaz (the King Isaiah made the prophecy FOR), you'll learn that the two kings were Rezin and Pekah.

    Israel had been invaded by Assyria. Ahaz was king of Judah, at this crisis refused to co-operate with the kings of Israel and Syria in opposition to the Assyrians. He was attacked and defeated by Rezin of Damascus and Pekah of Samaria (2 Kings 16:5; 2 Chr. 28:5, 6).

    THIS is what Ahaz was worried about and THIS is what Isaiah's prophecy was about -- the two kings -- Rezin and Pekah.

    Not virgin births.

    Read of II Kings (16:9) and you'll see that Isaiah's prophecy in 7 is fulfilled:

    "And seized it and exiled its inhabitants to Kir, and he slew Rezin," and in that very year (ibid. 15: 30), "Hoshea the son of Elah revolted against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and he struck him and slew him... in the twentieth year of Jotham,"

    Dear Cocksucker (since I don't know your name),

    Your reply was negligent to the fact that this small amount of people WILL FAIL trying to get large corporations' attentions and are merely wasting their time. A simpleton, such as yourself, wouldn't acknowledge that fact and would rather post flamebait as "Anonymous Coward".

    I read the article, BEFORE I posted. Moron. Just because I can't buy the new PlayStation 3 at the local "Computer Hut" store doesn't mean I'm going to stand outside like an idiot, waiting to see a movie that won't ever show there. They stand a better chance of seeing it at a dollar-theatre sooner than at the Ching-chang-chong Theatre.

    What's there to back up? Do you read hebrew? No, so there's nothing more I can say. That's the definition of the world almah - period. Just liek the english words "automobile", "table", and "apple" all have definitions of what they mean, such is the case for hebrew words. I'm telling you the definition of "almah." I read hebrew, so I know what it means. But you do not read hebrew, and yous tubbornly hold onto this because it conflicts with your theology. I cannot make you accept it.

    Almah means young woman. Period. Nothing to do with sex. Any woman who is young is an "almah." "almah" is the feminie form of the word "elem." "Elem" means "young man." The first time Saul saw David, he said, "Who is that 'elem'?" Do you think Saul inquiring about a virgin boy? Do you think Saul was psychic and knew he was not married? Of course not. Saul was just asking about a young boy.

    Almah can be accurately translated to parthenos, because parthenos does not mean a virgin, as I have pointed out already. And religious Jews NEVER relied on anyt ranslation, especially the septuagint. They only used the original hebrew and aramaic.

    Genesis 34:3 is where Dinah is called a "parthenos", and it is after her rape.
