This story appears to have first been reported by Terry Mattingly at the Scripps Howard News Service http://www.shns.com/shns/g_index2.cfm?action=detail&pk=RELIGION-FAITH-06-07-06 on Wednesday: "'What the MPAA said is that the movie contained strong 'thematic elements' that might disturb some parents,' said Kris Fuhr, vice president for marketing at Provident Films, which is owned by Sony Pictures. Provident plans to open the film next fall in 380 theaters nationwide with the help of Samuel Goldwyn Films, which has worked with indie movies like 'The Squid and the Whale.'" http://www.rense.com/general71/jesus.htm

    Perhaps they were worried that someone would mistaken the film as being about a Mexican and be in shock when the realized it wasn't. I recall a few year back that in a nearby town, some people were upset about the black silhouette of a naked lady over the door of a strip club. Those that lived in Vancouver a few decades ago may recall a city council member going down to Wreck Beach with a camera crew, to show how disgusting people were to sunbathe in the nude at this remote hidden beach.

    Isolation can be so nice at times.
