I also enjoy running and eating!

That little part at that "Last Supper" where Jesus dips his bread with Judas?(Matthew 26:20) Very significant (put this under the heading of the things they didn't teach you in Sunday School)  THere is significant meaning to sharing a meal with someone in the Middle East, and the dipping of the bread is also signficant as the person becomes a brother, if you will, for life.  Essentially Jesus is forgiving Judas for what he is about to do. 

 

I'm afraid that is the best I can explain it, but Judas isn't the bad guy.  It has been 10 years!

I would agree entirely with the point about Judas. Jesus would have forgiven Judas - and if some Christians are to be believed - in many ways Judas was doing us all a favour by setting up Jesus to die for our sins.

anyway, I wrote an article on Gibson's film which can be found here

I've attended Unitarian churches in Britain which are unfortunately quite anti-christian and often take a humanistic approach. I have read into Sikhism, Reform Judaism and Islam. However, the other faith / philosophy that I have a great affinity for is Taoism - I read their scripture regular although admit to not always understanding it.

First and foremost I am a Christian.
