Wed, 27 Oct 2010 18:01:32 +0000 http://www.bustedhalo.com/?p=9132#comment-11353 Thanks for this interview! Just came across it today (10-27-2010). I pray (and even fast a bit) that, if it's God's will, Jim Caviezel is chosen to play Superman in the next Superman film (2011-2012). He reportedly came close at one point to getting the role the last time around in 2005-2006. Sure, there is an immediate symbolism if "Jesus" played "Superman." When the character is presented at his best, the Samson-esque Superman can be an angel figure who swoops in and saves -- and fights evil when necessary, a Moses figure as a baby sent to safety by his family, and even a Christlike person who sacrifices some of his own happiness for the sake of others -- even willing to lay down his own life. But I also want to see Jim get the role because he is a great actor and looks the part of Superman! One report now is that Zach Snyder, the director of the new film, is considering an older actor for Superman (and not necessarily a person in his twenties). The last time around, Jim said he was willing to work out for the role and was interested if the script was good. I still see some other fans these days online besides myself hoping that Caviezel gets the role for the new film. If you like Jim Caviezel, please consider joining me in praying that he gets the role of Superman if it's God's and the Virgin Mary's desired will for Jim. And I'm sure Jim, given the role, would be a great role model for kids who love Superman. Seriously, thank you. God Bless. Thanks for this interview! Just came across it today (10-27-2010).

His acting is THE BEST because, I believe he receives grace to live the part. I believe grace is spiritual adrenaline, like when a mom picks up a car off her child...it's an infusion of grace...and this, I believe is the working out of God's best in Jim. I looked up this site to just try to learn more about him, perhaps his writings, etc. He is a great encourager and example in the faith. I pray for his safety, and and that he will be guarded by angels. Jim Caviezel, though human, appears to me to be annointed by Jesus Himself, if I may say so without turning some people off.

Way to go, Jim!!

WE ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE BEFORE US TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE TWO, FOR GOD SET'S BEFORE US LIFE AND DEATH, EVIL SPELLED IN REVERSE IS LIVE WE MUST LIVE FOR LIFE THROUGH JESUS, MAKING YOUR SUFFERING A WAY TO HELP OTHERS. THE ONE THAT SUFFERS MAKES A CONNECTION WITH GOD ABOVE TO BRING CHANGE TO THE WORLD A POSITIVE CHANGE , I HEAR THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND WISDOM IN WHAT JIM IS SAYING, GOD BLESS YOU TO ALLOW HIM A CHANCE TO SPEAK AS THE SPIRIT GUIDES HIM, I LOVED THIS INTERVIEW, VERY IMFORMATIVE, AND I LOVED IT WHEN HE SAID THERE IS THE GOOD WHICH IS JESUS THE DEVIL AND YOU.

Because I write for a Catholic publication I feel bound to live my faith because it's the right thing to do, of course, but to give evidence that I practice what I preach -- that I believe and live the values I write about. Everybody needs time "away from the office," so to speak, so I absolutely understand clergy who go without the collar on occasion. But the collar doesn't make the priest, and I've witnessed some of the most priestly ministry by priests who aren't wearing the garb; their pastoral demeanor shows through without any outward sign. The flip side is that I'll often wear a Catholic Spirit logo shirt just because I want folks to inquire about it, to engage me in conversation about faith. You wouldn't believe how it works on airplanes! Working for Catholic newspapers for 36 years, I could identify with Caviezel.
