While most Jews are wisely waiting to see the film before responding, others are either prematurely condemning a movie they have yet to see or violating the confidentiality agreements they signed with Icon Productions.

The "others" in this case are those who are purposely raking the muck in order to raise funds for their pathetic organizations. Organizations whose sole purpose in life is to perpetuate religious discord in order to raise funds for their pathetic organizations.

This controversy was brought up at a Bible Study I attended this week authored by Beth Moore, called "To Live is Christ". The study itself is a call to forgiveness, some of the imagery includes Saul attending the stoning of Stephen, the first martyr. While Saul, with his phylactery covered hands, held their coats and shouted encouragement to the murderers, Stephen looked to heaven and asked that God not hold it against them.

Funny how this film is hated so much by liberals and yet I don't see any of these people so much as break into a sweat for the Israeli's who are being killed in record numbers by terrorists!

"Many American Jews are alarmed by reports of what they view as potentially anti-Semitic content in this movie about the death of Jesus, which is due to be released during 2004."

Memo to aforesaid American Jews. You would be well advised to STHU. With your strident loud mouthed and phony anti-Christian protests you are engendering more hostility against Jews in general than the film every could.

In particular, those Christians that most ardently defend Israel and most reliably denounce anti-Semitism, happen to be those Christians most fervently committed to their faith.

John 13:35
By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.
