My comment had to do with the historical reliability of the accounts of the crucifixion in the 4 gospels, not the reliability of the entire ministry of Jesus. Yes, Paul makes many allusions to the suffering and death of Jesus, especially in Romans 12-15, and so that evidence can be used to support the general claim that Jesus was crucified. But the question on the table for much of this thread is: how historically reliable is Gibson's film, especially in matters of detail?

Probably not the snake.
