No Sex Please,

Perhaps this belongs in the weird news thread. I found it refreshing that he took a stand on his morals even at a rather substantial monetary loss. I can only assume there are others... So whatcha got?

Kind of ironic that he refuses to do sex scenes because he's Catholic while so many Catholic priests don't feel that same restraint.

You are again confusing their beliefs with the institution. And to say its "so many" seems rather disingenuous. Singling them out when it was already clearly shown that is not a situation limited to just Catholics.

Ya, but see, what you don't understand about those other churches is excuse, excuse, justification, and redirection. I'm a little disappointed in you...

I'm sure it's because I was raised Catholic. If I'd been raised atheist I'd prbably be anti-Catholic anyway, What with the birth control thing and all. I just knew so many decent devout people growing up. And of course grew up under the IRA threat. We had to be whiter than white to prove we weren't terrorists ourselves. No, really - Grandad's surname is Doyle - it was an issue. I've said before, I am a dyed in the wool atheiest. Nothing short of a personal vision (and that's likely to be drug-induced) will get me to believe in God. But I do believe that individual people have better ideals than those they are supposed to represent. I would never accuse members of this forum of torture. And I'm sure they would not accuse me - but it has happened. I would not call every single American here a racist because of the Ku Klux Klan, and I would hope no-one would tar me with the same brush as the BNP. Ha. I've just defended a religion I don't believe in, while arguing with Dana about another religion I don't believe in. Sigh. |

And again: if you're a MEMBER of the Catholic Church, then you are a part of the institution. Individual behaviors aside, you back that institution.
If I spent half my time denying being a member of the Eagles, out of shame, I should probably drop my membership. Sex scenes on those kinds of shows are always disgusting anyway. All close-ups and slobbering and slurping noises. He should have just come out and say it's gross, and he won't be a part of it, instead of hiding behind his noble church.

They like to puff up and beat their chest. They love being Catholic, molesting priests and hypocrisy and all. That is all Shel is saying...the dichotomy is usually only seen by us heathen outsiders.
He condones the institution, by using it as his reasoning. PS...wait a minute. Who do you mean by "you bitching because he's a family man" crap? No one here said that. Though, now that you mention it, I just think he's even more a hypocrite.

Does it make him less of a family man if he does a sex scene?

Smarmy looking. (nice way of saying uh, ewwwwwwwwwwww)
His face says "I am good man. Just look at me. Look how good I am. Men who do sex scenes are bad fathers. I am good father. See?" I don't give a hoot if he doesn't want to do sex scenes, it's his hiding it under his self-professed nobility that makes me ill. I wouldn't want to do sex scenes either, because it's entertainment for stupid people with no imaginations and no prospects, but I am also not an overpaid overrated two bit actor. Probably just has a tiny dick.
