Reply #28: I think what bothered me [View All]

about "The Passion" is that it focused on Jesus' violent end and not on all his good works and "miracles". The movie doesn't let you know about the man who helped the poor and the needy, spent time with the so-called dregs of society and healed the sick of body and spirit. He spent time ministering to people that today's "so-called Christians" wouldn't be caught dead around.

All you see is a man arrested by Romans and then violently killed by them. Gibson doesn't explain, in my opinion, why there were so many people saddened my his death. Jesus was more than his death and re-birth. He tried to show people how to live and treat each other with love and respect.

I think in this day and age we could use more of that.

on edit: I forgot to mention I like King of Kings better(with Jeffrey Hunter)
