This guy leaps from a description of events, most of which occurred 800 to 1000 years ago, and from dialogue between Jesus and the political managers of the Jewish community in 30 AD to the conclusion that the movie and the scripture will result in anti-sematic acts today. Doesn't follow logically, and as somebody points out, has not happened either.

Responsibility is individual. The Roman church and its successors in the mainline Protestant community engaged in many actions that fly in the face of the Christian message of the New Testiment. We might have been equally guilty if we had been there but we were not--and today, the clear message from the Christian community to the Jews is one of love and support at every level.

True.

"We might have been equally guilty if we had been there."

True. And let us NEVER EVER forget this point.

"but we were not--and today, the clear message from the Christian community to the Jews is one of love and support at every level."

True and well put.
