My point was to point out that Gibson cannot be seen to be like a Pharisee in that a typical Pharisee would never repent and it was their self-righteousness that was so abhorrent to Christ.
Gibson's statement, however, does not exhibit ANY self-righteousness thus cannot be seen to be similar to a Pharisee.
You are correct in that Gibson did not itemize his sins of the night. He did not enumerate the things he said to the police, the behavior of refusing to get in the car, the cursing, the possible sexist comments OR the anti-Semitism. The impression one gets in the statement is that he is not proud of any of the behavior.
Or that his publicist is not.
Perhaps he will speak personally about this and not hide behind "statements."
