You ought not be surprised, actually. What is ironic about this whole issue of the crucifixion and passion of Christ is that the Roman Catholic Church does not believe the historicity of the scriptural account. This is not to say they don't believe parts of it are probably true. It's just that one can never know for sure. It's called the higher critical or historical critical method of interpreting scripture. The historical-grammatical method actually views the scripture as the inspired and inerrant Word of God. That's why I think this movie is going to be great, because it takes seriously the biblical record.

That's nonsense. The Church does in fact accept the historical accuracy of the Gospels.

Lutheran Loft - I'm guessing Missouri Synod. Am I right? Just a friendly question...
