More Passion madness... From IMDB.com:
PETA Targets Gibson's 'Passion'
Mel Gibson has come under attack again - this time from animal rights activists who are furious he's raising animals for meat at his beef cattle ranch in Columbus, Montana. The Passion Of The Christ director - whose movie has sparked a flurry of controversy among religious groups who fear it will create anti-Semitism - has angered the People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals (PETA), who claim it's immoral for Christians to raise and kill "God's creatures" for food. Peta, who on Tuesday staged a day-long demonstration outside his Beartooth Ranch, picketed a screening of the movie at the UA Union Square Theatre in New York last night. The protest featured a 10-foot "Jesus On Stilts", and a stash of leaflets about "Christianity and Vegetarianism". The rep says, "We're saying 'Thou shalt not kill' to Mel Gibson. We're just saying people who oppose violence and injustice should extend that compassion to all God's creatures, and adopting a vegetarian diet is the best way to do that."
Though IMO, they could as well condemn him for cruelty against Jim Caviezel...

I see this as an excellent opportunity for more free publicity - it's not as if we heard much about this snuff film yesterday! (sarcasm alert) I'd like to suggest the following ad to Padre Gibson :
"Due to the graphic, stomach-turning, sado-masochistic nature of this film, it may not be suitable for all audiences. Very young viewers may be scarred for life, and those infirm in their faith may be struck dead. Doctors, nurses, and psychiatrists are on call in the lobby, and priests are standing by to administer last rites or babysit. ANYONE (except jews) KILLED BY THIS MOVIE WILL GO DIRECTLY TO HEAVEN!" |

" But why so much fuss about this one? There's been SEVERAL movies about Christ in the past. Does this one show how it really was? NOBODY FU##ING KNOWS!! But I know it's only Hollywood Entertainment and I like it. "
Fuss ?!?! FUSS ?!?!?!?!
Here's all the Fuss :
" NEW YORK (Reuters) - Radio shock-jock Howard Stern on Thursday blamed a conservative backlash prompted by the exposure of singer Janet Jackson (news)'s breast on television for the suspension of his show after a broadcast including talk of anal sex and offensive racial slurs.
Stern was dumped by Clear Channel Communications Inc., which carries his syndicated show in six U.S. markets, over segment of the show on Tuesday.
During on-air banter with Rick Salomon -- whose claim to fame is a widely distributed tape of him having sex with reality TV star Paris Hilton -- a caller asked Salomon if he had ever had sex with a famous black woman, using offensive language.
Stern on Thursday blamed the disciplinary move on a backlash over pop diva Jackson's exposing her breast during a halftime show at the football Super Bowl in January, which was broadcast live.
He faulted a radio station general manager for not hitting the delete button to stop the words being transmitted.
"They (Clear Channel) are being forced to say that I did something wrong," he said on Thursday's broadcast.
"I'm under attack. They've been after me since 1992, and they're having their way with me," he said referring to repeated troubles he has had with regulators. "Then Janet Jackson whipped out her boob and it's all over."
Stern's New York-based show is syndicated by Infinity Broadcasting, a unit of Viacom Inc., which also owns television networks CBS and MTV. CBS broadcast the Super Bowl, TV's most-watched event, and MTV produced the halftime show.
Infinity declined comment, as did Viacom, whose President Mel Karmazin had vowed to crack down on sexually explicit material in the aftermath of the Super Bowl flap.
VULGAR AND OFFENSIVE
Karmazin declared in a recent company-wide conference call, "This company won't be a poster child for indecency."
Stern was pulled off radio stations in Rochester, N.Y., Pittsburgh, San Diego, Miami, Orlando, Fla., and Louisville, Ky. indefinitely, by San Antonio, Texas-based Clear Channel. He remains in about three dozen other U.S. markets.
"It was vulgar, offensive and insulting, not just to women and African Americans but to anyone with a sense of common decency," Clear Channel President John Hogan said in a statement issued on Wednesday.
The radio giant, with over 1,200 outlets, also complained that Stern asked Salomon about anal sex and the size of his penis. On Thursday, Stern thumbed his nose at that complaint by replaying that segment on the air.
The move against Stern came a day after Clear Channel fired Florida radio's "Bubba the Love Sponge," after federal regulators accused him of airing sexually graphic material.
Stern suggested another motive for being pulled off the air. "They don't admit it in the press but they have admitted to me that they are doing this because they (Clear Channel executives) are being hauled in front of Congress," he told listeners on Thursday. "

It's true. Several movies on Jesus have been made but this one has been hyped, discussed and thrown in our faces from day one. With today's entertainment world being more closely scrutinized by the public, it's bound to get more attention and publicity than older movies. There was never this much furor over The Last Temptation of Christ but this one is different, they say, as it is anti-semetic. Look, it's all a little hazy at this point in history about 2000 years ago. Different adaptations on a story I suppose. Personally, I think Jesus was a very deeply religious man who spread his word and the word of God based on his own beliefs, although he was Jewish so I would think he did it under Jewish beliefs yet Christians somehow adapted his disciples and speakings as wholly Christian. Dunno about him rising from the tomb, sounds like he was a magician too. |

See The Movie, Buy The Nail/Jesus died for your sins -- and also to sell you a really bitchin' "Passion" coffee mug
By Mark Morford, SF Gate Columnist
You, yes you, can right now purchase a truly stylin' sepia-toned "Passion of the Christ" cross-adorned coffee mug, an exact replica of the one Jesus Himself used every morning at the Jerusalem Starbucks.
You can buy "witnessing tools," including lapel pins labeled in indecipherable Aramaic (yay Aramaic! What a comeback! Who knew?) and lapel pins with crucifixes, and packs of "witnessing cards" to swap with your Jesus-happy friends, just like the Disciples did when they sat around the holy campfire, swapping tales of sad lost goddesses and making s'mores with communion wafers and pink Easter marshmallow peeps.
But nothing says "slightly masochistic Jesus fanatic" like adorning your fine self with a two-inch silver pewter crucifixion-nail pendant, hanging 'round your neck from a nice 24-inch leather cord. Oh my yes.
It's an actual product, available right now for about ten bucks from Mel Gibson's official "Passion of the Christ" movie Web site, while supplies last, which they will forever and ever because they're doubtlessly made in
bulk by Malaysian sweatshop workers wearing faded "Lethal Weapon IV" T-shirts who all believe in a very unhappy Allah. Irony, it knoweth no boundaries.
The nail will be, I imagine, a hot-selling item indeed, given the desperate hoopla surrounding "Passion". Busloads of wide-eyed Christians trucked in by the tens of thousands, coupled with serious claims of anti-Semitism to ardent claims of lame historical revisionism and scary claims about Mel Gibson's ulterior agenda, given how he's, you know, a stringently conservative, ultradevout and allegedly antifeminist, homophobic member of a rather creepy orthodox Catholic sect called the Holy Family, a guy who is right now building his own, private, multimillion-dollar conservative-Catholic church somewhere outside Malibu
where you will not want to ever visit.
And, as for the nail pendants, well, the late, great comedian Bill Hicks probably said it best when he commented, "A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. Do you think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to
see a f--in' cross? It's kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on."
And why not? Why not hawk cheap-ass Jesus- branded "Passion" movie tie-in swill and call it a way to spread "a message of hope by creating jewelry and gifts of exceptional quality, which will inspire people to express and share their faith"? This is America, dammit. Nothing is sacred -- especially that which is supposedly most sacred of all.
After all, cheap movie swag is an American tradition. We expect and demand it and aren't we all just a little shocked this time out that we can't have, say, a cute Mary Magdalene mood ring for girls that changes color as your divine feminine power is shut down and demonized and made whorelike by the Catholic elders? Free for a limited time inside specially marked Happy Meals.
Word has it that "Passion" is a brutal, horrific, harrowing film, almost pornographic in Gibson's obsession with depicting every gruesome detail of the torture of Jesus. And, while Gibson can be an excellent director, his
film has many detractors already, like The New Yorker's David Denby, who calls the film a "sickening death trip" and "one of the cruellest movies in the history of the cinema." There is no doubt the movie contains powerful images and thought-provoking subject matter and bone-crushing dismemberments the likes of which we haven't seen since "The Last Temptation of Christ" and "Jaws IV: This Time It's Personal."
But, given the swag and the massive marketing push and the coffee mugs and the 20 bucks you gotta drop to go have yourself and a companion pummeled into guilty depressed submission, it is also, it must be repeated, yet another form of slick, brutally melodramatic propaganda, a harshly toned product disguised as an epic tale disguised as religious history wrapped in a heavy swooping organ-heavy soundtrack all designed to deliver one man's radicalized, masochistic, blood-soaked view of religious redemption.
And you know what? Hawking the sacred as cheap heeseball tchotchke is nothing new. Every religion in the world does it, shamelessly, from Buddhism to Taoism to the psycho Scientology cult. Hell, the Vatican has been doing it for centuries, passing the plate and guilting the throngs
into empowering the church to further guilt the throngs into empowering the church to buy massive amounts of property and political influence and some nice new robes and a huge team of pedophilia-defense lawyers.
No, the lesson here is not that it is unacceptable to try to do for Jesus what "Finding Nemo" did for clown fish. The lesson here is not merely that Mel Gibson is a religious bonkjob with a great eye for miserable, bloody
battle scenes and giant nails being pounded through bloody hands by sadistic Roman thugs in hideous slo-mo.
The lesson here is simply a reminder, easily forgotten amongst the hype and the creepiness and the busloads of devout Christians who are finally getting their very own "Apocalypse Now," a film that has found a perfect mode by which to market a particularly harsh, ruthless religious view via well-worn channels of pop consumerism.
For the rest of us, it's worth remembering that the divine doesn't give a whit for salesmanship, or orthodoxy, or clever camera work, or violent swag. It has little patience for lopsided, agenda-ridden, sickeningly violent depictions of unspeakably cruel suffering. Epic biblical storytelling is well and fine and is always good for a protest and an outcry and a handsome, pained Jesus staring up at the sky, thinkin' 'bout love.
Hey, you want to engage Mel on his odd hyper-religious viewpoints and take his rampant historical inaccuracies to task and use his film as an awkward launching point to discuss Western religious doctrine, like so many religious leaders are promoting? Have at it.
As always, it is your choice. You can think you need to have your spiritual belief coated in gallons of blood and death and grisly sacrifice and really bitchin' cinematography, of cruel beatings and nightmarish tortures and gruesome crucifixions, and that's what you want to zero in on and make extra-super clear and "real" so as to have everyone be equally hammered into guilty pulpy submission.
Or, you know, you don't. Jesus, rumor has it, didn't die for sin. He died for enlightenment. He didn't die so people would walk around all day in ugly nail necklaces thinking about bloody violent death, swapping quote cards and thinking they know something of the divine. He died to indicate humanity's need to purge itself of hate, war, violence and ego -- you know, all those things now performed in his name. Right, Dubya?
It might be as simple as saying, you know, the last thing anyone really needs hammered into them right now is more brutal, fanatical sanctimony on a string.
