My ClashPoint is this:  I can understand the Jewish concern of anti-Semitism, although I believe in this movie and from proper New Testament exegesis, it is unfounded and there is nothing to worry about.  It is undeniable: the Jews do not have a stronger ally on the planet than
Christians as we honor, look to and protect our spiritual, ancestral covenant roots.

And all this stuff about ?unnecessary violence??  Hey, that?s the way it was!

But what are these critics really concerned about?   What is it about ?The Passion? that really worries the secular liberal left?  What?s up with the Christophobia, guys?

Are you afraid that Jesus Christ and his principles are going to have a national/global renaissance?  Are you afraid the film is going to assist a Judeo/Christian effort to bring truth and dignity back to this country?  Are you afraid that righteousness is once again going to be re-introduced into our land before you secularly sink it?

Are you afraid that biblical absolutes will be strongly resurrected into the public arena and thus potentially ruin your randy relativism?  Are you afraid of personal accountability and responsibility in an age of blame shifting and bovine scatology?  Are you afraid that the moral law is going to wreck your amoral life?

That?s it, isn?t it?   That?s why you?re working so passionately to vilify ?The Passion of the Christ.? That?s your real agenda.
