The fellows you hear bellyaching about Mel's movie are not religious people at all. Ignore them.

I'd like to believe that, but all the rabbis who've been interviewed in the media - - except for Lapin - - have come out against Mel's movie. And since the movie is based on the Gospels, these religious Jews apparently don't want Christians to be able to depict the Gospel in public films. I find this outrageous - - and a sign that hatred of Christianity is widespread in Judaism, and by no means confined to "liberal secular" Jews. IF I'm wrong, please direct me to quotes from Jews other than Medved or Lapin who haven't denounced or expressed "concern" about Mel's movie. I can show you scores of quotes from rabbis and religious Jews who've denounced it. Shameful.

Just because someone is a rabbi doesn't mean they are a religious person, or that they can speak for all Jews.

Should also note that in reviewing my earlier post to which you are responding, you missed the main point.
