You should. It's an awesome movie. Yes, it made me cry. And it does make you feel bad, it's suppose to. It's one thing reading about Christs' death in the Bible, but a completely other thing when you actually see it happen, in a sense. It's a very good movie. I recommend seeing it!

I saw the movie when it first came out, Did it make me feel guilt, No, My guilt was done away with when I gave my life over to God in 1970, Did I cry, I can say yes & No, Because I knew that movie makers can only describe something in thier own mind, Mel Gibson done a great job on that movie, But still yet, it was only his ideal of how Christ suffered, Actually Christ suffered more than what is portray on the movie, It is really a good movie, You should see it,But still it is only a man made movie, & you need your mind to understand that Christ suffered more then is what on the movie.

Yes, i did watch the movie and it was painful to watch the gory images of a guy being tortured ruthlessly! Whether it is fact or the fictional imagination of a christian is yet to be proved.
But why should i feel guilty, I didn't do it. Christians will go to different lands and try to impose their culture and ruin the culture of those lands with this idea of guilt. Why should an african or an asian feel guilty for what some romans did to a jew some 2000 years ago? Some fight between european and a middle easterner and whole world is supposed to feel guilty about it! Yeah right, next they'll say some african goat herder should feel guilty for the Americans nuking Japan! What kinda perverse logic is that?

Yeah I watched it and it made me cry a lot. It made me cry not because I believe that Jesus was crucified but the cruelty of people at that time. And I didn't feel any guilt, why would I?

dependancy to pornography is like many different addictions. You get a right now intense, observed by potential of melancholy and shame. It takes further and extra to stimulate you, and you savour it much less and much less. You tension your loved ones faraway from you at the same time as you reside in a delusion international, with little foundation rather. as quickly as viewed, pornographic fabric could be remembered at any time, and alter the way we expect of and the failings we do in life. The battlefield is the comparable battlefield for all sin - the human innovations. To win the combat over pornography, you're able to first supply up loving it. this is demeaning and forestalls you from acquiring power of will. The excitement It represents is rather no longer genuinely worth the terrible cost it quite is paid later on. you're able to discover ways to prefer the sentiments of frustration, lonliness, and purity to the sentiments of excitement, melancholy, and shame. once you're tempted, replace the temptation with a favorable act or concept. in case you fill your innovations with helpful innovations, there'll be much less temptation. remember the guy which you quite prefer to be interior the sight of God. Set objectives and bounds. And stay faraway from temptation, as much as this is accessible. in case you notice a bare or scantily clad women human beings, seem basically at her spirit, and notice her as a daughter of God.

I found it to be a very profound movie. It was an accurate depiction (for the most part) of what Christ went through. I understand it may be too gory for some, but then again, He DID suffer brutally.

It had a profound effect on me and made me realize just how loving Christ was to suffer so much for someone like me,the brutality of the Roman soldiers was not imagined but a fact,I have researched a lot about Roman brutality and the scourging of Jesus was very accurate indeed.

My girlfriend (ironically a christian) said the film was awful - nothing but torture, she didn't see anything wonderful or rewarding about seeing a man - any man go through a lot of pain.
I eventually saw it myself and was moved though she did have a point - ok he suffered, we get it - did we need all of that? I think only the warped mind that really believes suffering is wholesome could get a lot out of the movie.

My sister has it. I saw part of it, but it is too gory for my taste, so I left. She likes "Halloween", "Saw" and other such senseless gore. It did not make me cry or fell guilty at all. It nearly made me vomit is all. I am an atheist, so I do not allow preachers to give me a guilt trip, so that I will pay them much money to relieve it. Believers guilt trips become gilt trips for greedy preachers.

watched it. didn't make me cry. nor did it make me feel guilty. making you feel guilty is not the whole point. its presenting what happened in the past. now, if you could just brush aside the fact that it was Jesus, you would not see it as crap!
what i felt when i was done watching? anger. i got anger with the brutality all those self-important b*st*rd did! not because it was Jesus they crucified but because it was human, just like you and me...
i recommend you to watch it, so you'll have the idea on how human beings could get unreasonably brutal...
