It wouldn't shock me if some dumb redneck took it upon himself to do this. Then again, it wouldn't shock me if they didn't do this to themselves to garner a bit of publicity.

Condon: Movie stirs passions for and against Christianity
Pastor Matt Condon doesn't think it's a coincidence that the sign outside his Garden City Church was destroyed so soon after "The Passion of the Christ" began playing in Missoula theaters.

Sounds like some teenagers wanted to get their jollies by seeing their handiwork on TV and all the hand-wringing about it!

Any evidence that it was Mel Gibson? Did anyone see him there?
Okay, folks, it is a very serious matter. Let's try to keep it focused. You can't blame a filmmaker for something he has no control over.
Why aren't the Muslims implicated? They are behind the wave of Jew-hatred attacks and synagogue burnings in Europe.
Anyway, if this is a "Christian" Jew-hatred attack, those responsible should be ashemed, ask God for forgiveness, and turn themselves in at the nearest police station or be hunted down like dogs.
Would a Christian proudly display a swastika to Jesus Christ, himself a Jew?
Nazi actions are a sin, because they are opposed to the Golden Rule.

This stuff has happened on and off all the time everywhere...so now it just "happens" to be the movie's fault? B.ravo S.ierra to that. I am so sick of the made up bs and copouts that the media reports as "fact" when it's pure crap.

Colorado huh? That's where the ADL has to pay the couple whom they defamed $12.5 Million. Was this defacing of the synagogue caused by the ADL defaming those people?

There was no official response available from the congregation Saturday, although several people who called 9NEWS to report the damage said that they blamed Mel Gibsons movie The Passion of the Christ for rekindling anti-Semitism.
Violation of a synagogue is repugnant. Once the perps are captured, I'll have several questions: 1. What is their religious affiliation? 2. Have they been consumers of anti-Semitic literature? 3. Have they ever committed anti-Semitic acts before? 4. Did they see the film, "The Passion of the Christ?" 5. Were they aware of fears that the film would inspire anti-Semitism?

We know Christians are to blame, us Christians represent the religion of hate. Christianity needs to be banned, because it is not politically correct. Sarcasm off

A case of a teenager getting the idea of being atni-Semetic from people who were screaming about anti-Semeticism. It's like telling teenagers not to try pot...What do they do?...try pot!

PS. The Scriptures tell Christians to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Also they tell us that whever curses the Jews will be cursed and whoever blesses them will be blessed ... it would be a real dumb CHristian to go against their own beliefs.

Some Xtian churches need to organize to personally remove that stuff. It "sends the right message."

Have they considered the possbility that the callers were themselves the perps, perhaps media-savvy left-wing RoP dhimmis trying to fan the flames of division, as their lapdog kapos in Hollywood and the ADL have managed to do?

I don't usually speculate about the identity of perpetrators but the odds are very high that they are multicult-inspired teen-age dhimmi-conformists acting out their stupid adolescent version of solidarity with "oppressed" Muslims. This is based on none other than the ADL's own compiliation of similar incidents during the past 3 years. (BTW, ADL doesn't give a lot of publicity to this compilation, just possibly because it reflects very badly on peacenik liberal Israel-bashers.)

if it was swastikas how do they know it wasnt watchers of The History Channel?
To: woofie
My gut tells me this thing was staged. By whom? I don't know. But with all the intense criticism of the movie, the resentment about its success and its critics clamoring to show evidence of antisemitism, it would be awfully easy and tempting for someone to desecrate a synagogue just to tarnish the movie.
To: woofie
According to the ADL there were 1500 anti-Semitic incidents in the country in 2002. That works out to about 30 per week (4 per day). So far "The Passion of the Christ" has been for 11 days. That means we should have seen 44 anti-Semitic incidents since the film came out. So far I've only heard of two--the brain-dead minister in the midwest who posted the "Jews killed Christ" sign and today's vandalizing of a synagogue. Given that there would normally be 44 incidents in any 11 day period anyway, it's hard to pin this synagogue incident on "The Passion of the Christ." In fact, when one considers the lack of reported incidents, it might very well be that Mel's movie has made the anti-Semitic incident rate go down, not up.
To: woofie
So now "THE MOVIE" did it! The movie probably got there by driving an SUV.
To: woofie
From the ADL's own
2003 report on anti-Semitic incidents in the US...
Vandalism against Jewish community institutions, synagogues and property remained at historic lows. ADL counted 531 reports of anti-Semitic vandalism in 2002, a four percent (4%) decrease from 2001 and marking a 20-year low. Over the past three years, the number of vandalism incidents reported annually to ADL has declined by 27 percent....
Among the more violent attacks in 2002:
-In Oakland, California, a synagogue sustained thousands of dollars in damage in an arson incident.
...
- In Worcester, Massachusetts, more than 120 gravestones were overturned in three separate attacks on the Hebrew Cemetery of Auburn.
But how can this be? 531 incidents of anti-Semitic vandalism? Why, The Passion of The Christ hadn't even been released yet! There must be some mistake. I mean, everybody knows that synagogue vandalism is caused by Mel Gibson's movie.
To: woofie
For almost 9 years I have lived half a block from a synagogue. It has never been vandalized. If it were it would be the same bunch of idiots who have twice broken my car windows and those of many of my neighgors or the same bunch of idiots who carved their names into newly poured concrete or the same idiots who shoplift from the local stores or the same idiots who hang out in abandoned lots in the town and get drunk. Namely bored obnoxious teens who have no supervision at home and no self respect. At this point in their young lives they have no religion.

Of course! Didn't you see all the Swastikas in the movie? I'm sure that's what caused it.
