I had previously defended it in that I refused to see it as anti-semetic. I have atacked the movie repeadedly in many posts and some on this thread can bear witness to that.

Now Krauthammer has gotten to me. I went in and admitted this to my wife and took a few more spoonfuls of crow from her.

I don't think it is 'Christian' to be blatant and reproachful about this movie to our Jewish brethren. Christ was meek. A bruised read would he not break nor a smoldering wick snuff out. Being pushy about our faith is not spreading the Gospel.

Christ was not all about meekness at all. He was about faith and obedience to his father and the fact that the way was opened for everyone including Gentiles and a whole lot more than I need to go into here.

I don't mean to be disrepectful but a lot of folks today have saddled Christianity with simply being nice and doing good deeds yet Christ himself says that "good deeds alone are not the entrance to heaven" (paraphrased)

I defend the movie based on my own feelings after seeing it. The fact that most of the detractors are my ideological foes in the culture war is not suprising. I applaud those Jews with the cajones to stand with THEIR CHRISTIAN BRETHREN.

However, in your defense, my wife is not jewish nor a detractor.
