wow...what i find interesting is that no matter where you stand, you have a choice. see it or don't. and let the person who isn't a clone of you do the same.
for some open-minded people, you seem somewhat indoctrinated by your own opinions. if you are atheist, be atheist. if you are catholic, protestant, jewish, the same. who gives a crap what the person next to you wants to do...isn't it a free country?
people complained about the last temptation of christ, which was a polar opposite depiction of this film. i didn't want to see it so i didn't, but i didn't go around ranting to those who did. fine soundtrack, btw.
last i checked, this film isn't being broadcasted into your home. you have to buy a ticket to see it. if you don't want to, then don't.

Why don't some of you constipated hypocrites take that spikey piece of self-righteous hatred out of your asses and take a good, long shit. In other words: RELAX.
Some of you people spit so much venom at a man who made over 300 million bucks on a movie HE payed for the production, then you go on to slander a faith believed by over a billion people on this planet, all the while working away at your comfy little *design jobs*, wanking over your iPods and hipster wardrobes and earning a living from WHORING your CREATIVE TALENTS to convince people to buy shit they don't need or believe shit they don't care about.
Meanwhile Mad Mel makes an art flick that manages to rub a bunch of anal retentive atheists and jewish lobbyists the wrong way and you act as if this is the friggin apocalypse. So much for the avante-garde. So much for art!
Pat yourselves on the backs because, GUESS WHAT? YOU are the bourgeuoise philistines that impede creative expression in the politically correct 21st century. Congratulations you fucking fascists!
You silly bastards say 'Gibson shouldn't be making money off of a religious movie'. O.k. fine. Then you shouldn't be making money off selling people gay-ass 'lifestyles' that go out of fashion every 3 years. Fucking corporate sluts!
You criticize the violence as if Hollywood had never seen a movie with blood. You talk about 'how Christ should be portrayed', when most of you people probably never even read the bible and couldn't give a shit about religion..
Please, just don't preach. It's getting really tacky.

oh, and before ppl start getting too crazy, i'm not particularly religious. obligatory holidays and whatnot, and that's pushing it.
i am, however, fair.

i'm a little confused here..nowhere did i use the word "rant", and my tone was purely conversational.
unless you think that only people you agree with are conversing?
hmm.

jeez people...if you want to quote, quote in context:
"people complained about the last temptation of christ, which was a polar opposite depiction of this film. i didn't want to see it so i didn't, but i didn't go around ranting to those who did."
i didn't rant to people who went to see this...its none of my business.
good conversation here...you just really seem to want to oppress people with your POV.
like i said, aetheist or not, you are totally entitled to believe what you want...but you were really ripping into people who might not have the same beliefs.

thanks mrdobolina.

It was completely in context.
You were comparing your NOT ranting to someone here that WAS ranting, no?
sorry I just like to question people's religious views.
