Which is also why I try not to engage in much theological discussions here. Yes, sometimes it can be good, and a true engagement and dialogue -- but in general, it ends up two sides, people not understanding each other, talking almost as if to a mirror instead of to the other person.

On the other hand, I have not given many comments to some of the topics at hand. I will add one here: I have not seen "The Passion of Christ" and don't think I will. A couple points interest me -- use of Latin, for example; but in general, the movie just looks like a long waste of time. So -- not all Christians are easily led to Mel's drum.
