>>none of those who are so strongly attacking this film have seen it or read its actual script<<Did a light bulb go on over your head when you had that insight? That's what the whole controversy is about! Gibson says his movie isn't anti - semitic but refuses to show it to anyone but hand - picked audiences pre -disposed to be on his side. The only Jew who's seen it is GOP shill Matt Drudge, for example. He says the script that was analyzed by the commitee of scholars isn't the final version but refuses to show the shooting script. What's he afraid of, or hiding? If the movie doesn't blame the Jews for killing Jesus why won't Gibson put the controversy to rest with one screening for the ADL?
>>I'm simply curious why Catholic scholars, who would likely find many pages of errors in treatises favorable to other controversial subjects like divorce, abortion, and homosexuality, are found to be so very, very correct and reliable here. <<
How inconvenient for you that half of the committee were Jews including Orthodox rabbis.
Why do you keep trying to drag homosexuality, abortion, and divorce into a discussion about a movie? What's your problem?
