This can't be stressed enough for the opportunistic "too violent" crowd...

What's funny is none of these people ever found a secular film "too violent", Tarantino et al are praised. Now all that we're showing how our savior was tortured and died for us, of a sudden these people are finding their violent gene.

It's uncanny.

Excellent point! I hadn't thought along those lines. Thanks for giving me something to file away and use at an opportune time.

Exactly. I can't remember the last time when critics were so shocked and appalled by film violence -- heck, they all seemed to love Gladiator and Reservoir Dogs and Braveheart and Natural Born Killers. Now, all of a sudden, they're on their high horse about violence. They're so transparent.
