Jim Caviziel is set to reprise his role as Jesus. The film will show him rising from the dead, performing miracles, and ascending into Heaven.

I was under the impression that in the Bible, Jesus didn't come out of the tomb and immediately start running around performing miracles. He did all those BEFORE he was crucified.

1. The Passion Of The Christ-Electric Boogaloo!

2. Funny, isn't it?

There’s piles of cash to make trash like this but nothing for single mothers or inner city kids, for a secular education. Where’s the job retraining money in the face of rising automation?

6. On the turd day, he rose again looking just like Donald Trump.

Bow down before your orange stink gawd and lick his boot. Ugh. You know they would. Magats.

7. The gospels are not biogrsphies, hence the writers feeling free to change or add events in each

Gospel. There more than likely was a man...I don't know if his name was Jesus or James or what...who was a powerful psychic and capable of projection into different realities. He learned there and passed on what he learned. In order for a soul to travel from world to world, it has to be highly evolved. His followers knew this and respected his instruction that the knowledge he gave them was not for public dissemination...anyway, mystery religions existed then and those secrets were protected. Paul calls his religion a mystery. But his followers wanted his knowledge to live, so they wrote the most incredible...to my mind...teaching tools ever accomplished. The main story line is that a perfect soul traveled hither and yon working miracles (symbols to be interpreted) and teaching in parables (his secret truths). The symbols and secrets were known to the initiated (the mature, adults) but not to the children, until the elders saw promise. The elders resided in Jerusalem and were supported by the various communities, sending out experts from there. They did not call themselves Christians, but the Poor, Nazoreans, the Way, and others, I suppose. The plan discombobulated. The Temple Jews became jealous or leery of James, the central leader. Two Jewish wars destroyed Jerusalem. Some knowing ones hung around Jerusalem. Eventually, they were called Gnostics and declared heretics by Rome. Over time, the Gnostics formed different sects, but the central truths remained. They differed chiefly in their interpretations of the levels of the spiritual universe...how things got from the big bang, so to speak, to life on planet earth. They thought big, unlike what I call the Simples of today: believe in Jesus and all your sins will be forgiven and you get a pass to either limbo or heaven...an ungospel untruth.

So....I won't be going to Passion, Pt. Deux!

9. I don't understand how Mel Gibson can be such an anti-Semite

but claim to be a devout follower of Jesus.

10. An old ethnic slur for Jews was "Christ-killers"

It's apparently okay to hate Jews because they had Jesus killed 2200 years ago.

11. the Gospels are, in their own particular way

anti-semitic. Read them with an open eye and mind amd you'll see it.

12. Romans were the ones who crucified people

not Jews. Nevertheless, if your savior HAD TO DIE in order to be resurrected, I would think they would be grateful to whoever was responsible.

14. 'Family Guy' already did it, like 10 years ago...
