Sisdizzle would be more appropiate.

Secondly, I'm not saying that "The Man" put this movie out to suppress upliftment in the black community. I think it was put out to suppress understanding of true Christianity for all Americans. Being it was endorsed by the Pope saying that "it is as it was" doesn't help either.

Jacking up the actual image of Christ was to 1)make white people more comfortable, 2)make us more accepting of suffering and torture as a means to knowledge and spritual advancement rather than confronting problems within religion and politics then and now, and 3) to focus on the death rather than the life that we are supposed to emulate.

And how am I being too emotional? Are you saying my opinion lacks logic, and if so, explain how?
