In lugnet.build.ancient, Brendan Powell Smith wrote: On-Topic... Wow, that sure was a way to spend a Sat. morning...

  Re: The Brick Testament - The Teachings of Jesus
 
(...) A valid point, and one I considered before going ahead with these scenes. It's quite possible that in several years time, George W.

  Re: The Brick Testament - The Teachings of Jesus
 
(...) I fear that some of these scenes, such as the depictions of Bush in "forgiveness" are too contemporaneous and won't stand the test of time (as no doubt the Office Space scene will). Also, was Bush's utterance of "comdemn" intentional? If so, (...) (18 years ago, 14-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

(...) Thanks! (...) I'm somewhat satisfied with how the Oval Office turned out. It's recognizeable, which is the main thing.

  Re: The Brick Testament - The Teachings of Jesus
 
Great! I miss some things from the old "The Teachings of Jesus" story, though, but I guess they will reappear soon in a new form. For instance, I think I remember that there was a depiction of the passage "If a man asks for your coat, then give it (...) (18 years ago, 14-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

Hey Brendan, Awesomeness! Love - I really like the Oval Office, with the flag, the first family, that kalashnikov, etc. Was that curtain design inspired by Shawn Sullivan?

Fine workmanship, Brendan. IS there a typo in the name of Jesus, in Crucifixion, last line of John 19:41, Mark 15:47, or is it realy the mother of another person in that verse? With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen. (18 years ago, 10-Jun-06, to lugnet.build.ancient)
