Letters Of Lamech
Six years and counting of on and off blogging... current events, Christianity, fun

The thoughtful Christian's reaction when something like this happens is similar to stories about assassinating abortion doctors or church leaders physically abusing children. You know it totally misrepresents Christ and his teachings yet, the world at large thinks it reveals what Christians REALLY think. Ugh.
Some critics say the movie blames Jews for the death of Christ and will provoke anti-Semitism, and they question why Mel Gibson hasn't denounced his father's views.

Hutton Gibson spoke Monday to Steve Feuerstein of "Speak Your Piece!" on WSNR-AM, a show syndicated by Talkline, the largest syndicator of Jewish programming.

Some of his most outrageous rants focused on the millions of Jews exterminated by Adolf Hitler.

"They claimed that there were 6.2 million in Poland before the war, and they claimed after the war there were 200,000 - therefore he must have killed 6 million of them," he said. "They simply got up and left! They were all over the Bronx and Brooklyn and Sydney, Australia, and Los Angeles."

He said the Germans did not have enough gas to cremate 6 million people and that the concentration camps were just "work camps."

"It's all - maybe not all fiction - but most of it is," he said.
Someone needs to take Hutton to Dachau and Auschwitz and Birkenau as soon as humanly possible.
