Will You see Gibson's "The Passion"?

[mburbank]

I think the anti semitism stem from the fact that Pilot is given a very sympathetic treatment and tthe crucifiction is laid entirely on the jews. Since Jews didn't crucify people and didn't have the legal authority to do so, that seems a bit much. In addition, Pilot is a hostorical figure written about in a few contemporary histories, and is known to have had other Jewish Chrismtic leaders crucified, so it's highly unlikely he thought Jesus should be spared.

These are the reasons the vatican finallt stated as dcotrine that the Jews are not responsible for the execution of Jesus.

Gibson (and Vinth, by the way) subscribe to a fringe element of catholascism that doesn't recognize Vatican II, and interesting position since Catholic doctrine doesn't give catholics the option of not recognizing papal edicts.
