    Organized religion destroys who we are or who we can be by inhibiting our actions and decisions out of fear of an intangible parent-figure who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years ago and says “No, no!”

    –Kevin Smith, Dogma

      Great quote. I can’t talk about Dogma without bringing up that time that Kevin Smith participated in a protest of his own film.

      Among the sign-waving attendees was Smith himself, making absolutely not the slightest effort to disguise his appearance or voice.

      “I don’t think [Dogma] stands for anything positive,” - Kevin Smith, being interviewed by a news reporter while cheerfully participating in a protest of his film, Dogma.
