We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

"HIT SEX HARD!" 209 "Well, these Biblical pictures liave assumed a more or less standard pattern, haven't they?" "Well, I don t think the Bible story follows a standard pattern. You have the Old Testament, you have the New Testa- ment" "In this instance you have followed the pattern of the Bible as you see it?" "I follow the pattern of the Bible as it is written." "Is there any difference in these pictures generally, their general character, general make-up, general production, as in these other Biblical pictures you have produced?** "Yes, sir, the Bible story is different" "I know it is different but you know what I mean, the general theme, the general treatment of it, the general approach to it is the same, is it not?" "No, sir, I do not know what you mean. I am sorry." "Well, this picture Samson and Delilah is completely differ- ent, you think, from the other Bible pictures that you have made?" "From The King of Kings, yes. It is a different story." "It is a different story but is the treatment different?" "Yes, the treatment is totally different from The King of Kings." "In what way?" "Well, The King of Kings is the difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament" "Now, as I understand your testimony on direct examination, it is that the religious theme and religious treatment and re- ligious angle are, I think you put it, quite near to your heart. Is that your position?" "Yes, sir, very near to my heart." "And you want the largest number of people possible to see this religious theme so they can be benefited by the religious teaching of the picture?" "Yes, sir."
