The real 5 big losers:

1. Radical ADL-type "Jews": those whose cultural identification far exceeds any religious inclination -- people who are generally more anti-Christian than they are pro-Judiasm -- tried to prevent people from seeing this movie. In essence, however, they did more to promote the film than anything Gibson could have done alone.
2. Film reviewers: hypocrites who adore senseless violence in films hated this movie because the violence had a purpose
3. Political pundits: many became amateur film reviewers but still wrote "reviews" completely slanted by their political positions taken before they even saw the film -- if they did at all
4. Hollywood producers: they failed to support the film on political grounds and are being left out of its success -- they are also now subject to accusations of "black-listing" Gibson in the future and will have to choose between alternatives that all expose them for being hypocrites
5. The rest of liberal Hollywood: The Passion overshadowed everything else in this year's Oscars (with the possible exception of LOTR) -- combined with the Super Bowl fiasco, they were forced to face an audience expecting higher standards of decency and couldn't get away with using the awards show as a political platform... and in an election year to boot!

A much more insightful top 5 list. You are most likely a genius.
