  Why ADL is concerned about Mel Gibson's film "The Passion"
Gibson is making a movie on the death of Jesus that is consistent with church teachings and free of the anti-Semitism that haunted passion dramas for centuries, the very raising of questions is now being depicted as a part of the culture wars that have overwhelmed American society in recent years.
Gibson's script is neither early first century Judea (where Jesus of Nazareth died) nor the last first-century Mediterranean dispora (where the evangelists composed their Gospels).
Gibson, a "traditionalist" Catholic, has expressed strong criticisms of the modern church and is supportive of views of church policy that question or reject the many 20th-century changes, including the revolution in attitudes toward Jews beginning with Nostra Aetate in 1965.

Gibson's replacement, Mickey Hatcher, slams a home run in the bottom of the first inning, only his second homer of the entire season, and he sprints around the bases as if he is leading a Lakers' fastbreak.
Gibson steps out of the box, slams his right hand on helmet and gets back into the box, determined to keep the inning alive.

 The Austin Chronicle Music: Highest Stakes
For a woman who wrote the best-selling single in country music history, the Dixie Chicks' "Wide Open Spaces," Susan Gibson is concerned with the most mundane of activities on this late September afternoon: She's lavishing affection on her dog Jezebel.
Gibson speaks in a most forthright, and yes, spontaneous manner about her good points as well as her bad ones ("I'm pretty darned entertained by my character flaws," she told another interviewer).
Rules and metaphors aside, it's difficult to imagine the vivacious Gibson as a 19-year-old atom, on her own, and confronting the biggest challenge of her adult life: leaving childhood.

 NCAR Research Sheds Light on Solar Storms - News Release
To conduct her study, Gibson used images from the Mark-IV K-Coronameter to observe dark, lower-density areas, known as cavities, that can be formed by the strong, sheared magnetic fields of magnetic flux ropes.
Gibson used a second technique to identify an additional eight CMEs for analysis that were observed by Mark-IV to erupt from already-formed cavities.
Gibson will also try to determine how widespread cavities are, and if it is possible that most, or even all, CMEs are preceded by the formation of magnetic flux ropes.

 [ t e c h n o \ c u l t u r e ] : Inventor of cyberspace steps back to the present
I am sitting talking to the writer William Gibson - the epitome of gritty tech street cred; a kind of cyber-literary Lou Reed in his hard-bitten coolness - and the conversation has turned to his belief that emerging technologies are what shape future history, not politics, not wars, not philosophies.
Mr Gibson shows a flicker of a smile and probably thinks the comment was deliberate, a small gesture of homage.
Mr Gibson's writings run deep, forming cyberculture's bedrock, influencing filmmakers, novelists, technologists, academics, and thousands of ordinary people who stumble into one of his novels and find they start thinking about technology, about computers and their uses, about the present and the future, in new ways.

 The Center for Process Studies :: View topic - M. Suchocki's Review of "The Passion of the Christ"
But Gibson begins his torture of Christ soon after the opening of the film when Christ is apprehended in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Gibson suggests, through Satanic asides in Gethsemane (interestingly, the gospels portray an angel with Jesus; Gibson substitutes the devil—and the devil, of course, is portrayed by a woman), that such punishment is the due of one who bears the sins of the world.
Gibson is far less biblical than Pasolini, who translates the gospel verbatim to the medium of film.
