We will never be the same after having viewed it last night with our church. .45MAN put it this way on the Finest thread:
Good morning to all. As you have read we viewd the Passion last night.. I am thinking slowly today because I am still digesting what I saw. The movie was brutal, it was beautiful, it brought to the surface every emotion that I can think of. It has made me ashamed that I have not been more of a Christian to the people around me. Today I am not the same person that I was yesterday and I hope that I will have the faith to stay that way the rest of my life. I cried. I don't know how a human could not, watching what went Christ went through and what Mary went through as his mother. I thank Mel Gibson for such a gift to all Christians.
God Bless.
I can't say it any better. My faith has been made stronger.

I totally agree.. I couldn't have said that any better than .45MAN.. it was truly an awakening..
You know, Mel Gibson is also setting the example for all of us. Look at all he put on the line for this Passion of his, enduring so much in personal attacks and criticism, refusing to let the walls so many tried to put up from stopping him, and even now continues to stand strong against the tidal wave of slander, hate and distortions.
May God continue to strengthen Mel and may He help us to be as fearless as Mel as we fight for all that is dear to us and to God.
