Some Jewish leaders, such as Abraham H. Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League, assert the film "unambiguously portrays Jewish authorities and the Jewish mob as the ones responsible for the decision to crucify Jesus."

"We are deeply concerned that the film, if released in its present form, will fuel the hatred, bigotry and anti-Semitism that many responsible churches have worked hard to repudiate," said Foxman, who broke a media confidentiality agreement after being allowed to screen the film in October.

Well, from what I have heard (and I have not seen the film), this film is an extremely accurate portrayal of the Gospels. For all intents in purposes, the film "says" what the Bible says. Therefore, what is Mr. Foxman saying here?? That the Holy Bible itself is hateful, biggotted, and anti-semtic?? It sure sounds like it. If he says such horrible things about the film, and the film is based so closely on actual scripture, then by default, he must be saying the same vile things about the Bible itself. I can't believe I have to read such idiocy coming from a supposedly intelligent and educated adult.

I had never even heard of the idea that this group or that group was "responsible" for the crucifixion of Jesus until this guy opened his yap and started spewing out his brainless prattle. I went to Catholic schools for 9 years when I was growing up, and never heard ANYTHING resembling what Mr. Foxman said. The only thing that I had ever heard was that Christ died for our sins, that God willed it to be so, and that we should be grateful for his sacrifice, which resulted in our Salvation.

If Mr. Foxman had kept his mouth shut, no one would have ever thought of the silly things he has been whining about. If there are any anti-semtic attacks as the result of this film, HE will be the one to blame for instilling violence. And if any violence DOES occur, God forbid, I hope he is held accountable for it.

But I think that Mr. Foxman already knows all of this. I don't think even he believes the drivel he is spouting. It seems to me that he is mostly concerned with his own self-glorification. He sounds to me like an attention-whore who is out to get as much free publicity as he possibly can. Plus, since what he is saying supports the godless agenda of the left-wing news media, the are are more than happy to give him just what he wants.

How pathetic!!

Though I don't agree with Mr. Foxman, I can understand his concerns

History shows that the Jews were blamed for many things, the death of Jesus being one of them

I don't know what you were taught in catholic school, but I was taught that the jewish people (of that time) did have a say in whether Christ lived or died

Now that does that mean we should hate Jews .. Of course not

Jesus was a jew, so to hate them would also mean to hate Jesus .. and were I come from .. that is a big no no
