why Pentax keep doing full frame lenses if they don't have a full frame camera? I love and shoot film but I don't see the point.

Exactly, they took a shortcut with their DSLRs and then took another shortcut with their 645D. In 2 years, all the 645D users will be clamoring for FF 645 and the naysayers will be saying "but but but 645D crop is "good enough"", "If you don't like 645D-crop, move on". Even Ken Rockwell slamed the 645D because it isn't full frame 645.

So why are they making full frame lenses? Good question.

Since when KR likes anything Pentax? (besides 645 FA35mm f3.5 what even Hassy can't match)
It seems that he liked the film 645s (N and the original): http://www.kenrockwell.com/pentax/645/645.htm

Never mind, he is not a real Pentax user btw. Besides, some people are keep saying that "RH doesn't like anything Pentax", too, I hope you are not one of them! ;-D
He's just a nikon fanboy, don't even a good photographer.
And I think you are more pentaxian than anyone, since love and hate are very strong feelings, and you pass from one to another in just a few posts. And, you don't ask for donatives in you blog either ;)
I must admit that actually I am a very fanboy in heart but only the behaviour is different! ;-) Frankly, many of the bash-the-basher fanboys had already left the Pentax camp and left me alone but of course there are always new comers.

I'm not. When you migrated to this new provider, I was actually verbally defending - you can put here all you want, it's your blog.. :o)

BTW, don't dump your FF glass yet, there is a strong sense of FF "in the Pentax-Ricoh oven"...
I will never dump my FF Pentax glass which I love much nor even those newer DA glass (I chose those FF compatible models as far as possible), you know.
