Again, you're completely missing the point. Whether or not the movie blames all the Jews for the death of Jesus, over two millennia millions of Christians HAVE blamed all Jews and exacted horrible retribution on uncountable tens of thousands of innocent Jews. For Gibson to make a movie based on the same Gospels that have inflamed these vile and vicious murders and not to explicitly renounce the idea of blaming all the Jews is extremely irresponsible. Because I guarantee you, there will be anti-Semites who will see this movie and trumpet its content as justification for their Jew-hatred.
