"The Passion of the Christ" (search) was one of the top-grossing films of 2004, yet it has been totally ignored by the Golden Globes and doesn't prominently appear in most mainstream critics "Best of 2004" lists either.

I don't understand the relevance. Movies like "Spiderman 2", "Shrek 2", The Matrix movies, Phantom Menace, etc. were all huge hits and didn't get nominations.

There's plenty of evidence of Hollywood's loathing of Christianity. I think this one element is a bit of a canard. Fahrenheit 9-11 didn't get nominated for Globes or Oscars, either.

I thought Shrek 2 did get a couple of animation nominations?

In the humble opinion of someone who's friends consider him a movie nut, The Passion was the most powerful and moving film I have ever seen. Period. By any standard by which most films are judged, acting, direction, cinematography, art, costume, etc. it is a masterpiece. Respectfully, your comparisons with other high grossing films that the AAMPAS failed to recognize just doesn't fly.
