I was a little vocal about my displeasure about the movie The Passion of the Christ and Mel Gibson’s seemingly endless ego about making it. But my curiosity got the better of me and I found myself in line Sunday to see it.
After viewing The Passion I can honestly say that all my comments about Gibson’s righteousness and pretentiousness were dead on. I’m not a religious person by any stretch of the imagination but it seemed very arrogant of Gibson to make such a movie in such a way. I think I’m mostly concerned that Gibson felt he could make the fifth gospel, which is what the movie is portrayed as. And also that people will begin to believe that the truth is a Hollywood media frenzy, and not the bible.
Not that I care much, I just don’t like gullible people.
BTW, don’t forget to pick up any of the offically licensed merchandise. Chances are it will bring you closer to God.
