What's the attitude toward "Passion" around here?
Advertisements [?]
Alright, I know this movie has been around for some time, but I'm new here and I'd like to know what everybody thinks about it.

Myself, I think it's a great, best-picture worthy movie. As a Christian, it holds very special meaning to me. Too often people wanna skip Good Friday and go straight into Easter. For me, this movie shows exactly what Christ went through for my salvation(this is just what I believe, I ain't trying to convert anybody here). I didn't find the film to be anti-semitic. And so what if the Jews did kill Jesus? I mean, muslims killed 3000 Americans on 9/11 and do I hate them? No. Germans killedover 6 million Jews and do I hate them? No. That's absolutely silly. So overall, I think the movie is great, I think Mel Gibson is a great storyteller and has major cojones for making a film that could have ruined his career, and I'm glad people are at least talking about God again.

That's just my opinion, feel free to have your own:-)
