The David Limbaugh article looks like an add-on to the Paul Harvey article. I have not seen this yet on FreeRepublic so I felt it should be posted. If by any chance it has already been posted, and I missed it, the moderators are free to pull it.

There is not a scintilla of anti-Semitism to be found anywhere in this powerful film. If there were, I would be among the first to decry it.

This kind of pandering makes me sick. The New Testament has a theme of anti-semitism to it, in the sense that it REJECTS jewish legalism. To the extent that Christ is the Messiah, and jews reject that, the entire message is "anti-semitism"

At some point, ya gotta call a spade a spade.

I can't wait to see this movie.

Seems like everyone who has actually seen the moview raves about the message, the accuracy, and how profoundly affected they were by it.

At lunch the other day, I was trying to explain to a Jewish friend and a "main stream" protestant friend that Jesus died to redeem us and reconcile us to God after the fall of Adam. They both were incredulous. They could not believe it. I was rather surprised that they had never heard of that truth. They both then became very upset and aggitated. Very weird. I'm pretty shy and private about my faith. This was a real revelation to me.

Great letter, however:

"The piece cited above is indeed a review penned by someone who attended a screening of the movie, The Passion, producer/director Mel Gibson's upcoming film about the last twelve hours in the life of Jesus. (The movie is due to open on 25 February 2004.) However, the review is not the work of long-time radio commentator Paul Harvey; it was written by Keith A Fournier, a "constitutional lawyer and a graduate of the John Paul II Institute of the Lateran University, Franciscan University and the University of Pittsburgh." "

Actually, this is not by Paul Harvey. I believe Harvey was quoting a young lawyer and deacon who had been invited to the screening. I have posted this account elsewhere.

I don't know how many Jews think they should be offended by this film, but I do know that our secular elites are deeply offended by anything that challenges their one-dimensional view of the world.
