Gibson is very good at marketing. Look at all of the people on this thread who are supporting him, and seem to think this movie is some sort of statement against New Ageism or abortion.

My question: how come he didn't make a movie about the Navajo, or the Sioux? Why didn't he make a movie about the ancient Egyptians, or the Indus Valley civilizations? The Crusades? The Napoleonic Wars?

Why didn't he continue "The Passion" with the story of the Resurrection and the events in the Book of Acts?

I believe the answer lies in the fact that none of these could have included bloody human sacrifice, and I will leave it to the psychologists to determine why someone would dwell on such stuff.

ONE thing for sure I am not going to waste my time on a movie when in the next theater I can see a great movie about the miracle of the Birth of CHRIST. Mel might make money on this one etc, but as far as my wallet goes , it goes to the Nativity with pride.
