I'm no fan of the Catholic Church, but as far as I know...neither is Gibson. I'm not so sure that his brand of Catholism accepts the "Ascension of Mary". Then again I could be wrong. If you are not "accustomed" to follow the unsaved crowd, then as a Christian you are not doing your job. We are all called to witness for Christ. Jesus kept company with lepers, tax collecters, prostitutes, and all sorts. He didn't preach to the choir...he spoke to the lost.

We should support Mel Gibson because of the message that this movie sends. Yes, he admits he gave his interpretation, but only because many of the pieces were missing. I haven't seen the film yet, but it sounds like he is doing the job that many of us Christian should be doing ...sharing the Gospel.
