OT mini-rant:
Last night I found a full version of The Passion of the Christ on YouTube. Having never seen it as I had little interest in the subject, my curiosity nonetheless got the better of me. I clicked, scrubbed forward a bit, and found myself watching a scene where Jesus (a.s.) had been brought in front of a group of Jews (Caiaphas & the Sanhedrin?) and was being interrogated & beaten.
Holy crap, the Jews in that scene were positively diabolical! I know there had been complaints of anti-Semitism when the movie came out, and it is a Mel Gibson movie, but still…actaully seeing it acted out on screen was…sheesh…I had no idea it was that bad. I didn’t even finish watching the scene, let alone the whole movie. O_o.
It’s Jews depicted by a prominent anti-Semite. What did you expect?
On a totally different note: This article arrived in a magazine in my mailbox last week:
