Reply #4: Why can't this guy take his own money and make his own movie [View All]

[Mistress Quickly]

I'm tired of all the bashing of this movie, Mel Gibson, etc etc etc.

Good grief, if it offends you, don't see it.

He (Mel Gibson) has every right to make a movie and sink all his money into it. Do I think others believe their prophets, Gods, whatever suffered at the ahnds of others? Yes. Fine. Make your movie.

As a Christian, I have no problem with the "violence and gore" in the movie (which I haven't even seen - YET), because the story is of the sacrifice Christ gave for me to go to heaven. If you don't believe what I believe, fine. I'm not telling you to, not making you, and barely mention my beliefs on these boards. But if people said the things being said about this movie / Christianity in regards any other religion, or even atheism, they would be stoned (to use a good biblical punishment).

I admit it. I'm the sinner Jesus died for!! There. Pile the blame on me.

Sheesh, that's been building up in me for weeks now. Thanks for the outlet, and I'm not particularly directing this to you, Matcom. It was the first thread about the movie I came across.
