Mel's Alcoholism may be addressed in a ReHab center and Mel may not drink again. However, his feelings about Jews will not be cured.

I agree, but maybe he'll work on that too. Or maybe not.

I feel burned by Gibson - I thought the TMZ report was part of the continuing payback by the Left for his making "The Passion" - so I defended him on this forum, at least until more sources for the story from more qualified sites came out.

Mel might also use this as an opportunity to throw out (what another FReeper put so eloquently) the demons instilled by his father. I sure hope he does that. But I won't trust him or his support his cinematic vision again. Not that he needs my meager money anymore....

"However, his feeling about the Jews will not be cured".

Comments like yours lead me to confirm my suspicions that no matter what Mel says or does to redeem himself, it will NEVER be believed or accepted by some people.

I am in the minority thinking that he wasn't speaking of ALL the Jews...just the ones he was at war with in Hollywood and the ADL, who were out to destroy him and his movie.

Who do you think gave him a hard time when he was making The Passion of Christ? Do YOU consider the movie antisemitic?

Mel will never live this down. He will be persecuted the rest of his life. So sad.

How do you know? Have you been livin' in Mel's head? Are you his soul?
