Seeking the right Kingdom?

An otherwise meaningless story from CNN.com quoted Quentin Tarantino, famous for his violent and disturbing films, who is the chief judge or something at the Canne film festival...

>>>Leading the jury is American director Quentin Tarantino, one decade after winning a Palme d'Or for cult movie "Pulp Fiction."

"If there's another level of heaven, that's where I'm at," Tarantino, whose latest offerings "Kill Bill" parts 1 and 2 are being screened out of competition, said.<<<

Perhaps I am reading a bit too much into this, but this captures the mindset of the secular establishment. Once critical of the greedy 80's. the Hollywood left now seeks to grab as much power as possible in this lifetime, awards, spouses, acclaim, adoration. Heaven for them is self-gratification here on earth. What was Christ so often said about the self-righteous?

THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD.

Enjoy it while you can Mr. Tarantino, because the day of reckoning comes for us all. Canne film festival accolades won't mean a thing to the Lord.
