"God the Father" documentary
May 12, 2014 at 12:26 pm
Quote:The distribution company behind hit Christian film "God's Not Dead" announced yesterday that a new Christian documentary project, "God the Father," will be released in October.
The documentary will present the life and spiritual deliverance of former mobster Michael Franzese, and will be sold at the Cannes Film Festival next week.
Franzese, son of Colombo underboss John "Sonny" Franzese, dropped out of college to become a gangster. He eventually became a captain in the Colombo crime family, and served time in prison for racketeering, counterfeiting, extortion, and tax fraud.
While incarcerated, Franzese, 62, renounced his Mafia oath, and dedicated his life to Christ.

Gods not dead because he was never alive to begin with.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

If God's not dead, he needs to fire the ne'er-do-well agent who keeps sending him such shitty scripts.

He would have a lot of people to fire. Like the whole Catholic church for starters.

I don't trust news sources that don't allow comments on their articles.
Quote:While incarcerated, Franzese, 62, renounced his Mafia oath, and dedicated his life to the Magical Sky Unicorn.
He speaks to audiences across the country about his past and transformation through a Unicornism ministry called Outreach, and he is the founder and chairman of a youth counseling organization—the Breaking Out Foundation.
Dedicated his life to an imaginary person, sounds like a nutball when you tweak the words a bit, but use the word Christianity and its all good

I'm always up for a good group smiting.

I'm sure the church has an opening for a man of such talents.
