#1: Being Catholic - I feel guilty enough thank you very much & don't need to see a movie that rubs salt in my religious wounds! I know that I am going to hell and look forward to the trip :)
#2: And here don't get me wrong - I love Mel Gibson to bits! "But" this film coming from a man who all-too-openly admits that he's been addicted to everything at some point in his life; who says that he's now not addicted to his religion?
Hey, whatever blows your hair back or floats your boat, I'm all for but didn't we all know that Christ/Jesus died a horrific death - one that we can't imagine?
Can any film put into image or word what is must of been like for Jesus to be up on that cross, dieing a most painfull death, knowing that his pain and suffering could be alleviated if someone had gotten a latter and a pair of plyers?
As the great Sam Kinnasen once said; "Yeah folks! Jesus is coming back - just as soon as he can play piano! The only savior that can use his own hand as a whistle!"
I know... Going straight to hell for this!
