	Anne Catherine Emmerich
		Since childhood, Emmerich was said to have mysterious powers, including clairvoyance, the ability to heal others and frequent visions of divine luminaries, including the Virgin Mary and Jesus, to whom she referred (somewhat creepily) as "my Divine Spouse." Her Divine Spouse had an abusive streak.
		Emmerich was haunted by visions of sinners being punished in the afterlife and was often afflicted with stigmata (spontaneously occurring wounds corresponding to the wounds of Christ on the cross).
		Emmerich's accounts were rife with superstition and anti-Semitism, the former evidenced in a mild obsession with relics, such as Veronica's veil, the wood of the cross and the Holy Grail, which she said had been handed down from Abraham.

	Mel Gibson's "Passion"
		Gibson's film is strongly based on Emmerich's visionary book "Dolorous Passion", rather than on the Bible, so it probably has a quality or a "signature" different from the biblical fundamentalism one would expect from traditional organized religion, especially the Protestant Church which relies exclusively on what is written in the Bible.

	Catholic Culture : Document Library : Some Further Perspectives on Anne Catherine Emmerich
		Having read and studied Brentano's Emmerich writings in the original German as well as most of the 20th-century scientific literature on these, and also having translated some of the key ecclesiastical documents relating to Emmerich's current beatification case into English, several friends have asked me to relate the facts concerning her cause currently in progress.
		To refer to "the pernicious notion that to be an unschooled, bedridden seer is the highest manifestation of sanctity," is in my opinion at least potentially offensive to the handicapped, as well as incautious when used in the context of one whom the Church in her judgment has declared a servant of God.
		The bedridden Emmerich, like all those who find themselves imprisoned by their physical or spiritual pains, can be a beautiful example of the Suffering Christ, who was "bedridden" if you will, on the holy cross on Good Friday.
