  1. Well Celts studied the skies as part of the Pagan Religion, obviously the heavens were a big deal for them, I'd have to agree the Roman's interest in the stars, would be more weather related than anything. But of course I could be wrong! I watched an interesting show called Secrets of the Dark Ages, where they basically explore the role, and important contributions of so-called 'barbarians'. Even though It's called Secrets of the Dark Ages many of the episodes cover roman times. I must say after watching that show I begin to wonder exactly how much the romans thought of themselves!

  2. The only factor that would make someone not want to watch this movie, besides lack of interest in the subject or disagreeing with the way it was written, would be the constant graphic violence. If the sight of blood, beating, and the like makes you squirm I would advise against subjecting yourself to 2 and half hours of it.

  3. I just saw it today, loved it! I was glad to see the story of Christ without sugar coating. I did'nt see anything that would lead me to be anti-jewish, guess they're just afraid that people may realise they havent always been the 'victims'.I would recommend everyone even if you are not religious to go and see this movie, it is very powerful, and does what movies should do in my opinion, make people think!
