Mel Gibson post-award press conference-"Kinship" with Michael Moore

Posted on 01/10/2005 10:33:48 AM PST by bushfamfan

Does anyone have the quotes that Mel Gibson apparently made after receiving his People's Choice Award in saying he felt a "kinship" with Michael Moore and attacking the war in Iraq?

True Christians were not part of the crusades.

Can you clarify that statement?

He liked the film, enough said.

I like the film Goodfellas, that does not mean I like mobsters.

Sometimes there is a big difference between a "social conservative" and a "conservative."

Some times there's a big difference bewteen a "conservative" and a "neo-Conservative".

Odd Couple Gibson, Moore Exchange Praise

27 minutes ago Movies - AP

PASADENA, Calif. - Mel Gibson (news) and Michael Moore have been used as shorthand for cultural and political divisions among Americans, but how do the filmmakers feel about each other? Cue the Hollywood ending — it's hugs all around.


"I saw the film. I liked it," Gibson told AP Radio Sunday at the 31st Annual People's Choice Awards, countering the contention that "Fahrenheit 9/11" fans and "The Passion of the Christ" enthusiasts are mutually exclusive groups.


Moore's critique of President Bush (news - web sites)'s policies since the Sept. 11 attacks and Gibson's film about Jesus Christ's final hours were huge hits at the box office in 2004, and both won People's Choice awards Sunday. "Fahrenheit 9/11" was named favorite movie and "The Passion of the Christ" was the favorite drama.


"I feel a kind of strange kinship with Michael," Gibson said. I mean, they're trying to pit us against each other in the press, but this is all just a hologram, you know. They've really got nothing to do with one another. They were used as some kind of divisive left-right thing."


Moore said he saw Gibson's film twice, and even took his father to see it.


"I thought it was a powerful piece of filmmaking," Moore told AP Radio Sunday. "I'm a practicing Catholic, and you know I think Mel and I may be from different wings of the Catholic Church. My film might have been called 'The Compassion of the Christ.'"

The Apostles never ever wrote anything to warrant the Crusades now did they?

Did Jesus imply anything about the Crusades?

Jesus and the Apostles JEWS were anti-jewish? No that came from the early pagan church

True Christians were not part of the crusades...Don't paint lieing heathens as Christians

That's why there were holy orders founded to go on the crusades ?

What is it with pacifistic Christians?? Did not Jesus tell his disciples to sell his cloak and buy a sword ?

I suppose many of you think that "conservatism" equates with buying 100% into the ravings of Limbaugh and Hannity. Well, sorry - it does not, IMHO.

Three cheers for you sir, from the "Somebody Gets It" Department.

Nor do I. I knew months ago he had reservations about Iraq. I like how he dispatched the NY Slimes reporter...they really did a hit job on him last year.

Mel never claimed to agree with the President on everything.
Being conservative means thinking, not being a level puller like the liberals.

NO your implying something completly different.

The Early Pagan Church was and is a lie The True Christians followers of the word from Jesus to the Apostles to the rest of the world has nothing to do with his message of salvation and eternal life.

Crusades and the Holocaust has nothing absolouetly nothing to do with Jesus Christ and his message to the entire human race.
