First of all sparky, I hate the word homo, I mean, you implied you are gay right and you use that word? Whatever.

Second of all, this is one person's take on the crucifiction. I don't know if I agree with it. What good does it do for people to see this? Half will be offended and the other half will be too sick to even watch.

You read the Bible and it tells you what Jesus went through, why do we have to see it? God knows we know what...let's say Ted Bundy did to women, do we have to SEE it. In my mind the gross factor can be compared.

I believe Jesus did go through all that but I don't know why we have to see it.

I know many people aren't religious on this board, but please respect those that are...this topic is more fragile than the election topic.

We can choose not to like Mel Gibson, we can question his motives and we can certainly question the marketing ( spreading the word vs. poor taste) but let's just kind of stay clear from saying Jesus DIDN'T suffer as much, we don't know do we. We can't make such claims!!!

We have to be tolerant. Mel Gibson wanted to push buttons no doubt...and he wanted to maybe stir up some talk of religion, and what we believe. But his death are what's seperates the Catholics the Protestants and the Jews. Thats why this movie is just so touchy...as well as the violence.

I think it's unecesarry...I wouldn't want to think someone got "saved" because they saw what Jesus went through and felt sorry for Him..you know?

but I also think we should keep an open mind with each other and not tear each other down for what we believe and who we are.
