Elton John is a real sicko!

Yes!!! That's what I thought of too. Very funny movie that introduced me to the White Russian.

I have been wanting to watch that movie again.

I think Lebowski is one of the most quotable movies.
 
For those of you stating Jesus was not married, where in the Bible does it say he wasn't? One of the teachings of Jesus was for man to be yoked with a woman.

He also mentions celibacy in Matthew 19.

Besides that, how does he have time for a wife when he's already dealing with 12 knuckleheads amongst other followers? :)

And everyone knows that the "King James version" is the correct collection of biblical books! To each his own.

I couldn't tell if you were trying to be sarcastic, but I've read that the KJV is technically one of the least accurate versions out there when it comes to the original Aramaic and Greek documents.

I think Lebowski is one of the most quotable movies.

Wrong...it is THE most quotable movie.
 
That movie has got to be the funniest movie I've ever seen.
Have you read the Shakespearean version?

Two Gentlemen of Lebowski

Here's that scene

2.2
[The bowling green. Enter THE KNAVE, WALTER and DONALD, to play at ninepins]


THE KNAVE
A strike, a very palpable strike! O, but Quince can roll straight and true.


WALTER
That he rolleth true, I cannot deny’t, but the man rolls not straight, for he is not a man to stand upright. I have it on good authority that he is one of perversions. Two seasons has he idled in prison for exposing his manhood to a pageboy.


THE KNAVE
My lands!


WALTER

When first he came upon the holy wood, he was made to stand in public gallows, and in such great letters as they write “Here is good horse to hire”, it was signified on his sign, “Here you may see a pederast.”


DONALD
What manner of man be a pederast, Sir Walter?


WALTER
Hold thy tongue, Sir Donald.—Knave, what measure of moneys were thou offer’d?


THE KNAVE
Twenty pounds for mine own, and the matter of the rug forgiven. They may summon me at any hour day or night.


WALTER
An they should call for thee in time of ninepins, that would hang us.


DONALD
What is like to happen in time of ninepins, Sir Walter?


WALTER
Peace, miserable Donald; life will neither stop nor start at thy command.


THE KNAVE
My purse is as good as filled; here is money found with ease. I submit that the subtle lady may well indeed be her own kidnapper.


DONALD
I’d know thy mind further, Knave.


THE KNAVE
This be not the traffic of hardened thieves,
Nor rug-....ers, nor ruffians o’ the night.
Look well upon a lady fair, so happy fair,
Who spurn’d her love for money, glitt’ring gold,
Where, much deprived of ample gifts and treats
Did scheme to steal a greater sum from some.
In owing much to much of men about
She sought devices to discharge her debt.


WALTER
O contemptible shrew!


THE KNAVE
As sure as what was said in Siberia;
“Look well to he whose benefit abounds
And knowest all,” as I have tried to say.


DONALD
I am flabbergasted, overbowl’d,
As clumsy and unsettled as a walrus.


WALTER
O pernicious shrew!
His wife’s a hobby-horse, deserves a name
As rank as any flax-wench.


DONALD
I be the walrus.


WALTER
Hold thy tongue, Donald! Thy mind is Lenten.
The quality of wealth has sicken’d me.
An had I known that this would come to pass
(O vilest strumpet! Sinner! Painted whore!)
I might have tarried ere accepting service.
War in far-flung jungles, as my friends
Did die face-down in mire and muck and fens!


THE KNAVE
I see connection not in argument
‘Twixt Bonnie and the wars of Orient.


WALTER
‘Tis not connected literally, as rope,
But yet by stardust, thought-string, tears and hope.


THE KNAVE
Look well, my friend; there be no connection.
Take to thy roll, thy play for our selection.

[Enter JOSHUA QUINCE and LIAM O’BRIEN]


QUINCE
Hail, masters! I crave thine able readiness
To be dealt with roughly, as the Sodomites.
For men of sport have noted that our play
In semifinal hour draws on apace.
By Jove! I’ll wager well, Liam and me,
To thrash thee soundly at the fair tourney.


THE KNAVE
Yea, well, that be, forsooth, thy opinion, sir.


QUINCE
Well; but be forewarn’d. It reach’d mine ears
That combustible Walter, o’ercome with rage
Did shed good sense, and raise his sword in play.
I fear not such jade’s tricks, an seeing ill,
Would snatch the burden from the jealous knight
And pierce his gizzard with the wrongful steel,
Points up, as said of Coriolanus.


THE KNAVE
Zounds!


QUINCE
Thou speakest rightly, sir. No man misdeals with Joshua Quince, by Jesu.

[Exeunt QUINCE and O’BRIEN]


WALTER
Nay, fear him not, nor his unworthy joys.
Recall the tragic tale of the pageboys.


[Exeunt WALTER and DONALD]
