I don't accuse you of having any ill will and I agree that no sane person holds those views. I am concerned with the ones who are not sane. Now I don't think their number is large but I do think they exist and that they can cause trouble if the want to. Do I think they will cause alot of trouble? I don't know. Would I hold you responsible for any trouble? Absolutely not! On balance I expect the movie's impact to be overwelmingly positive and I welcome it. I expect that any trouble will be dealt as isolated occurances and dealt with on a case by case basis. To the extent that groups like the ADL try to link trouble to Gibson or the larger Christian community, this Jew would tell them to sit down and shut up.

As far as you thinking I am blind I will say this (yet again): I will not tell you what to believe or that what you think is wrong. It is not my place to tell you what your faith is and ought to constitute. I would only ask for the same courtesy in return. I think that's fair. To the extent that leads you to think it is no good to argue with me then don't because I'm not looking to press you on it at point in the thread.

Would you say that those who decided that Jesus had to die were sane? Jesus Christ does not make people insane, insane people hate Jesus Christ.
