<<I believe the Passion probably is responsible for many people realizing what has been missing in their life, and after seeing the movie, prayed to the Lord and accepted Him and their Savior.>>

Just curious and hope to get an honest answer from you. What is the difference between someone who has been immersed in what you believe and someone who has been immersed teachings from the Koran? (sorry about the spelling)

Both seem fanatical to me and both seem to believe that everyone should believe and would benifit from those teachings. Can one of them really be more than learned behavior??

I'm in complete agreement and that's why the abuse Gibson was subjected to tends to enrage me.

Moore is an admitted rabble-rouser so it doesn't bother me that people on the other side attack him.

But Gibson's motive was entirely innocent, plus he risked $40m of his own money, and people were all over him like white on rice.

The Passion offered a life changing opportunity

Life is a life-changing opportunity.

If Mel's movie helps people, I am all for that. And he may be a great soul. But I would like to see him give away a lot of money. Getting rich off Jesus leaves one appearing to be a hypocrite.
