I think Mel Gibson is brilliant and can't wait to see this movie. I have bought advance tickets for others and hope to get to watch the film multiple times during Lent.
That said, I urge our Jewish brothers and sisters not to buy into the propaganda being generated by the Leftwing media. The film (and the Christian scriptures for that matter) do not blame the Jews for the death of Christ--it blames ALL of us collectively. We believe that Jesus died to redeem the sins of ALL mankind. So in a sense, Jews are guilty of the blood of Christ, but no moreso than I am, or Mel Gibson is, or any other sinner may be. Gibson said as much in his interview on EWTN a couple weeks ago.
I support Israel. I am a Judeophile. Do not let propaganda and lies emmanating from the secular/atheist media divide us.
