This film has deeply shaken the Left. They had come to think that they were winning, that they had thoroughly cowed Christianity and the influence of the 'religious Right.' Mel Gibson is Spartacus, and the Left is the Romans, facing an uprising that shakes them to their core...

"Mel Gibson is Spartacus, and the Left is the Romans, facing an uprising that shakes them to their core..." You understand history! That is what the Romans had to do for survival. They had too many ethnic groups, religions, and countries to control. They had to enforce their law equally or lose control. Everyone shows their ignorance by not reading history.

Nice point, but I hope your analogy is wrong --- Spartacus came to a nasty end.
