Any form of participation, in absolutley anything, requires submission in some way. So should we not participate in absolutley anything? I will submit in the sense that I will attend a viewing of a film, a film that, due to it's content may move me to see a new perspective of the passion of Christ. But it seems that you have judge us without knowing a shred of how we view this movie. I don't think anyone is going to quote it as Gospel. If you feel scripture should never be recreated for you may call it worhiping false idols, then we better not even quote scripture in our native tongue. We must only read it and speak it in the original Hebrew. Or else you might consider it a false idol.
Come on, nobody is going to wordhip that actor. The film may be praised, but for what it is... a film. I feel confident that there isn't going to be anyone praising it as Lord.

The bottom line is (concerning the anti-semitism)
the bible is anti-semitic, (think thats how you say it)
it was written, angled and altred by people who where!
and any movie based on it is going to so as well.

Why would that anger God if it helped open their hearts to God? You use the term worship too loosley. You condemn the movie because of it's medium. It is visual, oooh. But if it is an accurate portrayal of scripture, why is that wrong? Why would it anger you if it spreads your own word? The same word you commanded them to share. Oh yeah, that's right, because it's visual. It uses an image to spread the Gospel. That' s SOOO wrong!

How difficult is it for you to understand that watching a movie is not necessarily worship? Yes, worship requires submission, but that doesn't mean any submission is worship. The two words are not synonyms!
to kiss the hand to (towards) one (Hamilton's remark: like with the pope, leader of the Roman Curia), in token of reverence
among the Orientals, esp. the Persians, to fall upon the knees and touch the ground with the forehead as an expression of profound reverence
in the NT by kneeling or prostration to do homage (to one) or make obeisance, whether in order to express respect or to make supplication
used of homage shown to men and beings of superior rank
to the Jewish high priests
to God
to Christ
to heavenly beings
to demons

To make money on prophecy is the school of Bileam, one of the most hated prophets in the history of Israel. Only Jezebel has a worse record. Judge for yourself, or judge yourself to hell. That is basically the choice here.
