>I didn't say that. I said it portrayed the Jewish leaders in the film in a bad light; in a much worse light than the Roman leaders. I could see how someone might think that Gibson's portrayal was anti Semitic.

The biggest issue is that each of the Gospels varies somewhat in the way it depicts the Passion, and Gibson hand-picked the portions from each that show the Jews in the worst light, and "enhanced" this with some non-biblical sources. This had to have been deliberate.

"I could see how someone might think that Gibson's portrayal was anti Semitic."

That ideas is a bit more reasonable then what I thought you said/meant.

Do you yourself think that Gibson is anti-Semetic or that the film has an anti-Semetic message?
