The Passion of The Christ remains controversial.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Given the history of Mel Gibson, it should come as no surprise that his film, The Passion of the Christ, is surrounded by controversy. The 2004 biblical drama, which tells the story of the life and death of Jesus Christ, portrayed by Jim Caviezel, garnered international attention.
The Passion of The Christ had many biblical and historical inaccuracies. The opening scene shows Jesus Christ praying in the garden of Gethsemane. He is approached by an androgynous figure in a dark cloak, the implied embodiment of Satan. A giant snake appears at the feet of Satan and slithers over to Jesus before he stomps it to death. This scene is an apparent reference to the Book of Genesis, but it’s a sloppy one.
There is no mistaking the villains in The Passion of The Christ and in a society so easily fueled by hate, the backlash to this material is warranted. Both Jewish and Christian communities came forward to denounce the film's portrayal of antisemitic material. Gibson's intentional depiction of the Jewish people as an angry bloodthirsty mob determined to make Jesus suffer as much as possible is not only grossly inaccurate, but it is a false narrative that perpetuates prejudice.

Why Kindness at Work Pays OffWhether you’re just entering the workforce, starting a new job, or transitioning into people management, kindness can be a valuable attribute that speaks volumes about your character, commitment, and long-term value. Here are a few simple routines you can integrate into your everyday work life that will spread kindness and help create a culture of kindness at your organization. Practice radical self-care. The best way to be a valuable, thoughtful team member is to be disciplined about your own wellness — your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Do your job. Start with the basics by showing up on time and doing your job to the best of your ability. This is where your self-care practice comes into play — you can’t do your best work without taking care of yourself first. Reach out to others with intention. Make plans to meet virtually or, even better, in person with your colleagues. Ask about their pets, their recent move, or their family. Most importantly, practice active listening. Recognize and acknowledge people. Authentic, thoughtful interactions show that you’re thinking about the other person and reflecting on their unique attributes and value, which can cement social connections. Be conscientious with your feedback. Being kind means offering feedback for the betterment of the person receiving it and the overall success of your company.
