It depends on which Jesus you are talking about. I love the Jesus of Mark who goes to the cross, beaten, betrayed and scorned. Mark portrays a profoundly human Jesus that suffers the wound of a broken humanity. I am not nearly as enthusiastic for John's account. John's Jesus is shaped by a higher Christology. I am not able to connect with John in the same way as I can with the synoptic gospels. Dan Brown gives us fluff. Mel Gibson, on the other hand, rips the essence of Mark right off the gospel pages and gives a riveting moment of theater. On the whole Christians are doing fine. I hope the movie turns out better than the book.
