Thank you. As a Freeper, I trust other Freepers. As a Jew, I trust other Freepers.

I was raised and schooled as a Catholic. I've never understood why Jews were blamed for Christ's death. He was a Jew who lived among Jews. Jesus Himself said that a prophet is never accepted in his own country. He chose His fate. Those who crucified Him were individuals who acted out of free will, but the fact that they were Jewish was incidental. There were undoubtedly just as many, if not more, Jewish people who loved and followed Him, as there were who brought about His demise. Why has history chosen to forget about them and emphasise those who destroyed Him?

ROFL!!! As a fellow Jew, I hear you loud and clear!!

I WAS wanting to see this film. I am a little scared of the violence. Maybe I can get it together to go and see it. I distrust almost all Jews' reviews of this film, though I would trust Rabbi Lapin's or Dennis Prager's or even a fellow Jewish FReeper's review.

I think Mel Gibson was brave and inspired to go through with this project, and I am so glad to see how a truly religious film with conservative values is sucking up box office money over the liberal drivel out there.

Judaism is the parent religion of Christianity. The Commandments stipulate that we must respect our parents.

God bless and protect you.
