You know Paul Verhoeven? The guy who directed Robocop, Total Recall, Basic Instinct, Showgirls, Starship Troopers, and The Hollow Man?
Turns out that in addition to making those movies, he's also a theologian and member of the Jesus Seminar, which seeks to study the Gospels and try to figure out what actually happened. And the results are very much like the Jefferson Bible.
Maybe that's why the sex scenes were so ridiculous in Showgirls; he was too busy thinking things like how plausible the story of the woman who touched Jesus' tunic was to keep track of how anatomically possible the blocking in the pool scene was.
