The recent debut of Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion of the Christ” has sparked a fervent debate in religious and non-religious circles.

Some feel the film is a true depiction of the end for Jesus Christ. Others feel it is anti-Semitic and inaccurate.

So, this week Q-Line wants to know, “What do you think of ‘The Passion’ and why?”

Call (310) 285-8106 with your responses before Thursday at 5 p.m. We’ll print them in Saturday’s paper. Please limit your comments to a minute or less. It might help to think first about the wording of your response.
