[edit] Passion of the Christ
As I recall, in Passion of the Christ the guy who spears Christ is given a different name. Anyone remember what it was and care to mention it here? -R. fiend 21:57, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
No, I don't think so. Str1977 (smile back) 09:40, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Removal of Category:Christian mythology
What is the reason for removing Category: Christian mythology, please? Ahasuerus 19:52, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
User:Str1977 has methodically gone through articles included in the Category:Christian mythology removing them. This article was one of those removed.Perhaps not in the interests of the non-indoctrinated Wikipedia reader? I have no opinion in this particular case myself. --Wetman 09:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
It was removed because this article deals with a person who is both a historical figure (as far as the little that is stated in the Gospels) and a Christian saint associated with a legend. That is not mythology. Str1977 (smile back) 09:40, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] text from Longi
Longi was the Roman centurion who, according to the canonical Christian Gospels, thrust his lance into Jesus's right side while he was on the cross. Subirachs represents him on horseback and carrying his lance.
- I've put a speedy tag on the article Longi (Bible). BTW: Is the expression Longi a common synonym for Longinus? -- Bapho 12:18, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Why "these supposed witnesses to the crucifixion"? What is supposed here meant to evoke? Were they witnesses or not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.91.45.231 (talk) 19:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
