I stick with the same comment, every group in history has been persecuted...whether Indian, Irish, Polish, Black, Jewish...etc...etc...What is callous about that comment? The movie was wonderful because the pain and suffering of one man and his love for all of mankind...I just went and saw it for a second time tonight and all I can say is that Jesus rocks. A better feeling for me than the movie Rocky because for me this movie is truth...if you view it as the truth it is a truly miraculous and beautiful movie. When you see it let me know, the only thing that I wish had been shown to a greater extent was the suffering of Mary and I hope that she ends up as co-redemptor for the pure suffering she must have felt having to watch the pain and suffering of her only child. Peace be with you...

I probably should not have used the word "callous."
My apologies.

I do think though that the persecution of Jews, which has persisted for centuries, and culminated in a somewhat successful attempt to exterminate them, the Holocaust, is in a different class than, say that of the Irish or Poles.

I therefore think it more than prudent for Jews to be wary of anti Semitism, and more than understandable that they fear it.

I'm glad you liked the movie, it looks like Gibson has hit a home run with it, which is great.
