"Jude" was great, CE was great, *perfect* as Jude, but it flopped.

Is that based on Jude the Obscure? I haven't seen it.

CE is my first Doctor, too. I've always avoided watching series where all
the girls do is scream for help. I'll miss him.

Yes. The current Dr. Who has certainly modernised though. It's still
male hero with female 'assistant' but she's a pretty strong-willed
character. Also interesting is the extra male sidekick of dubious sexual
orientation. Hints of T. Russell Davies' influence perhaps?

Any true depiction of Jude the Obscure will have the audience sawing
through their wrists before they've got half-way through their popcorn.
It's one of the bleakest books I've ever read - I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Travel trivia - they filmed (at least part of) it in Durham.

A lot of it was filmed in the Edinburgh Old Town - the High Street
near Parliament Square and around Greyfriars Churchyard. I haven't
seen the film but I have seen the set.

You can often watch movies being shot below George IV Bridge in summer,
in the cul-de-sac that leads to the back entrance of the High Court,
which is easy to dress up as an 18th or 19th century street. But it
does get *some* traffic; shooting must occasionally be interrupted to
make way for police vans loaded with thugs on their way to jail. If
they'd only ship them out in tumbrils the courts could make a bit of
money out of their location.

We were in the Louvre near the end of May and my wife insisted on taking a tour.

Our tour guide was a pushy Brit who hustled us along at a breakneck pace. Right
near the Madonna Of The Rocks I started to get a pain in my chest and, thinking
it might be angina, popped a nitroglycerine tablet under my tongue. Big
mistake. Nitro drops your BP precipitously -- this is OK if your BP is high,
but mine wasn't -- and I passed out.

If I had my wits about me I would have splayed out in my best Vitruvian Man
imitation -- and waited for someone to tell me "shooting hasn't started yet..."

Apparently Runt carefully reads all Earl's posts to make sure he doesn't

So I heard.

The book has had a special impact in opening up Christian religious issues
that most of the public either were ignorant of and barely heard of.
In turn this resulted in the publication of other books which expanded on
the errors in Brown's book.

I had read Elaine Pagels' book The Gnostic Gospel years ago, and many of
the issues raised in the Brown book are developed by women writers, most
scholars, working on what has to be term feminist issues in religion.

Dan Burstein edits a multi-authored book which collects together the
declarations of many scholars working in the area of the origin of
Christianity, especially the route not taken, Gnosticism. Burstein`s
(Secrets of the Code: The Unauthorized Guide to the Mysteries Behind The Da
Vinci Code) would not have been written if Brown had not exposed to
the general public a portion of those issues.

Of course all of this is part of a current movement to deconstruct the
singularity claims of what forms of Christianity we have now. It is
an academic fact that Christianity and its use of the state brought the
intellectual dark ages to Europe by replacing reason with faith.

Brown's book does deal in part with the battle of the individual against
the mob.

The Bible got the count of legs wrong since what is forbidden are

"All the winged insects that walk on all fours are detestable to you."

Insects have 6 legs.

Is there any defense of the Bible on this latter point??
Yes, he

The original Hebrew word was not "insects", it was hard to translate
but meant something like "teeming creatures".

Interesting, the English language section the web site gives that part
of Leviticus I was referring to.

20 'All the winged insects that walk on all fours are detestable to you.

21* 'Yet these you may eat among all the winged insects which walk on all
fours: those which have above their feet jointed legs with which to jump on
the earth.

22* 'These of them you may eat: the locust in its kinds, and the devastating
locust in its kinds, and the cricket in its kinds, and the grasshopper in
its kinds.

23 'But all other winged insects which are four-footed are detestable to
you.

That site said----

"Everything that the Bible states about Science is true. Science may be
behind what the Scriptures reveal. The Bible is NOT a textbook on Science,
but any time it reveals incidentally a fact of science, it is without
error."

"The case you bring up is interesting. I think there are a number of
explanations possible. "Four" is the wrong word to look at in the original
in this situation. This is apparently a problem word for the translators.
Let me illustrate. Here is how the main translations in English have
translated this passage."

So the claim of the writer is that the Bible is without error but the
English translation must be in error. There is no real reference
to the passage in Hebrew which has been "mistranslated".

The critical part is the "four-footed", how "teeming" got mixed up with
that I can`t imagine. Generally the passages seem to be describing insects
(spiders have 8 legs) of a type which frequent the Middle East.
Claiming that there is a translation problem with "four" sounds absurd.
That "six" and "four" might have gotten mixed up, OK, but not four
and teeming.

Next anybody who claims that the Bible "is without error" is functioning
of the basis of faith, not reason. My other point in the posting is that
that kind of "faith" which led to the dark ages, the mass destruction
of books and knowledge in general that took place after the 4-5th century.

My view of this Biblical passage is that those insects which were found
edible were put on the "eat" list, and those which were not (even poisonous)
were not. It was trial and error by man which gave rise to the food taboos
mixed in with some superstition which might have excluded edible foods
for various reasons. I can see people brought up that certain foods
are dirty and dangerous will not eat them, I have Muslim friends who,
like the Jews, will not eat pork. Having been told all one's life
that it is yucky food is good enough reason why not to eat it. I have
eaten fried cricket in Taiwan, its saving grace is being prepared
with lots of garlic and served with beer.

In the meanwhile, when possible, I will turn my attention to lobster.
Very unyucky if well prepared.

The Earth teems with livestock, and they walk on all fours. Are cattle
and sheep forbidden?
