On my recent trip to Borders (pics), i saw "The Passion" on DVD for sale. That in itself was an interesting find considering the fuss our Government made about partially banning its screening at the theatres. But what really, really bothered me was the "sticker" i found on its front cover.
Need to sleep over this one. More thoughts on this later, but generally, i'm apalled at the religious polarization this demonstrates (and subtlely promotes, i'm sorry to say). The NEP polarized us racially, and its things like this that will finish off any effort to unify us as a society. Perhaps, its better to ban it altogether rather than allow it with such blatant conditions.
