When is the last time you saw the MEDIA screaming that movies with violence and murder convert others to violence and murder? Or what about all those video games where the children get to simulate murdering people? The MEDIA is so worried about The Passion converting people to Christianity - wow - that would make society intolerable! [for some].

Amazing to see the media single out the one movie that has christian message and yet the thousands of other movies receive none of this harsh criticism.

Note that two of the guest, Foxman and Stanger, come to the table with a strong political agenda as has been exhibited in their comments to date. In my view, this lessens the quality of the potential discussion unless, somehow, they can all get past the shallow debate that has now become cliche and misses the point.
I would also not that the Left and the press have accused Mel Gibson of being:
- Anti-semetic
- Too violent
- On the religious fringe
- Greedy
Why? Can anyone remember any such attacks on any director for any film ever? Someone once wrote,
It is one of the characteristics of the divine word, that whenever it appears, Satan ceases to slumber and sleep. This is the surest and most unerring test for distiguishing it from false doctrines which readily betray themselves, while they are received by all with willing ears and welcomed by an applauding world.
I think that explains a lot.

INTREP - THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST
To: Timesink
Whether by cunning marketing, runaway buzz and controversy or the inherent power of the story, Mel Gibson's film "The Passion of the Christ" opens today to enormous advance sales. Nightline selling the power of God and Jesus' story short again, huh? I won't be watching, as usual.

And will it breed the kind of intolerance and anti-Semitism that some have feared? With the film now only opened for one day--it is too soon to sayIt's not at all too early to see how intolerant a large segment of the left is.
