Religious leaders and critics are debating whether the film's dramatization of Jesus' crucifixion is excessively violent Yeah, because in reality, lashings followed by crucifixion were a relatively peaceful affair,involving minor discomfort and minimal bleeding. Why is Mel trying to porray it as such a bad thing?
