By the way, have you gotten around to seeing "Passion" yet?

I saw it the first weekend.

So far, no acts of anti-Semitism sprung up because of the movie,

And you know this because God told you........or were you expecting someone to do an anti Semitic act and then leaving a card saying the movie made him/her do it? <g>

yet there have been reports of people confessing to crimes after watching the movie, including these two men:

cnn.com
azcentral.com;

Hey, whatever works? We had two 'spontaneous' confessions up here in the past month; unfortunately, neither were prompted by the Passion.

Funny how the movie, dubbed overly violent by the critics and "anti-Semitic" by the press, can motivate criminals toward repentance, even if it means doing the time. Maybe there's much more to all of this besides a bunch of "Jesus Freaks" pumping up the box office numbers ...

There has been more to JC for a long time for which the movie is not nearly responsible. The two major complaints against the movie are that it was unnecessarily violent and that it was anti Semitic to a degree........I agree with both accusations.

Tenchusatsu, nonetheless, those are only opinions......you do not have to agree. And they do not in any way disparage JC; they simply suggest that the film is flawed.
