The Spotlight Duplicity

I happened to come across this interesting story, buried deep in the bowels of embarrassing things the Maecenaen sworn expounders don't like shared but still end up making Caesar look good. It was in the New York Times, so it is official, but it was in some arts blog.

Turns out the Academy Award winning film Spotlight did a little fiddling with the story to evoke a bit more dramatic effect, making an actual person seem like something he wasn't. The Roman operative, an educational institution trustee, was portrayed as working on the cover-up, when in fact he was more of a supportive force for making things clean and right with the church.

What the story does is degrade the perception of the righteous Boston Globe reporter gallantry in valiantly exposing the Catholic Church's priest-sex abuse situation, but ironically it does so by making Rome's heroes appear even more courageously wholesomely victimized.

How pukifying.

The truth is Rome's ecclesia actually engenders the criminal behavior it rails against. It is all part of the grand ruse to employ the elaborate network of System-sanctioned idolatry to captivate the hearts and minds of a populace in need of salvation.

So a Hollywood movie does a spiffy job of telling us the church is kind of sexually reprobate and we're all "Wowwie, that's amazing let's all spit-up our righteous indignation!" What a joke. Do you really not know what's going on behind closed doors at that place? This stuff that has been going on for eons? Everywhere Rome has an outpost, not just in Boston somewhere?

Really?

Now here's an incident where the film pays a sum of money to clear some guy's name who's been pushed into the, ahem, spotlight as a crusading knight fighting for the victims in the church. The film is not even removing the fictionalized account, as far as I can tell. So the filmed drama remains, and the real-life drama of celebrating helpful church officials, one of whom gets a nice check for having the fortune of looking bad in the film, also remains...

And people are still hypnotically held in Cain's mighty grip.

I wrote quite a bit more about this in my latest home page piece. Hope you peek at it, and perhaps let your spirit in on who Jesus really is.
