Customer Reviews of ABC Primetime - Mel Gibson's Passion
Confident and Steady Mel Gibson Gibson did very little press for The Passion, with this being the much-hyped primetime ABC interview. Sawyer asks the questions that would be expected, asking him why he didn't make a more politically correct version. Gibson should be commended for standing by his vision. His particular form of Orthodox Catholicism believes the brutal crucifixion is the singular most important moment in the life of Christ, and to understand the him, you must travel that last day with him and suffer ever blow.
Therefore, he felt his depiction of the death of Christ was the ONLY version he could ever produce (he tires to explain this to Sawyer who seems to suggest "well, why not change this story if people get mad?"). To him, anything else would be a compromise before God. You may not agree with his spin on the meaning of Jesus, but you have to admire his allegiance to his beliefs.
In a moment emphasizing Gibson's nearly jaw-dropping gall, he answers a question by Sawyer similar to "Isn't it wrong and unfair to modern Jews to show them doing bad things in this movie?" His answer is to compare it to Schindler's List, and how that historical film is most likely discomforting to modern Germans. I understand his point (and agree), but it is easy to see how he gets labeled anti-Semitic with parallels like that.
Can Non-Believers Understand What Believers Believe
This interview talks to heart of the believer in Christ. Secular or non-believing journalists see Christians as "weirdos" sometimes. Notice I didn't say "all the time".
It is had for people, who believe that the only way to heaven is through Jesus, to make people who have rejected (or never searched for) that truth understand our passion, our committment, our love for Jesus and His Father.
I suggest purchasing this video and showing it to your children, as a way to make them understand the difference between the two molds of TRUTH. The main goal of the Christian faith is not to drag others to Christ, but show them the light - that they may see for themselves the love, grace, and hope the Savior brings to all.
I think Mel Gibson is bringing people to the light. Hopefully Diane Sawyer is a light-seeker. :-)

Money Mel and His Big Money Movie
First, the guy who ordered this thinking it was the "Passion" movie, you're an idiot. You got what you deserved for not paying attention.
This interview is a waste of time, Gibson is just promoting himself and I don't belive a word of his personal religous dogma. If anyone thinks Mel made 'The Passion' for any reason other than to make himelf richer, then you are a fool. If his inspiration was to spread "the word", why weren't the profits given to his beloved Catholic church? The money went in Mel's pockets and if you paid your hard earned dollars to see it you're fool, regardless of the quality of the story or your religious beelifs. Not one cent went to any religous entity of any kind. Except Mel's chruch of course. Did you know Mel started his own chruch? With private membership? I guess he decided not to tell you that part. He's a money grubbing egomanic and if you buy into his crap then more fool you.
