What a great article. The New Yorker is the best magazine, ever. And what does it say? Gibson is a human being ... just like the rest of us ... imperfect. So what.

As an agnostic, I am very much looking forward to this movie. As this article suggests, it seems it will be a movie which transcends its pre-release criticism.

I make this prediction: this movie will make more money than any other ever produced. I will go further: this movie will dwarf all others in the money made.

The interesting question, which is the subtext of all the controversy, is whether this movie will affect human hearts more than any other.

Judging by Sister Mary Applesauce and the other leftists who felt compelled to lecture Gibson, they are very very scared that Jesus might actually come across as a messanger of love and compassion. Why would they feel that way?

I assume it's because these religio-elitists feel Mel Gibson is ditching in line to meet the King of Kings without having proper heavenly "credentials."

Used to be the Best Magazine Ever. This is from a woman who treasures her hand typed letter from William Shawn.
