F.Y.I.:
The canonized posthumous blogger Jeanne D'Orleans notes this story. "A robot Christ was used for crucifixion scenes in Mel Gibson's new movie The Passion, it emerged yesterday. The 220,000 [pounds] electrical body double was made because the weather was too cold for actor Jim Caviezel, 35, to be filmed in just a loincloth." She then comments "It seems so fitting to me that Mel Gibson's God would turn out to be an expensive machine." Actually, this has been a well known heresy for sixty years. Like Arianism, it is named after its leading advocate. Theologians call this one Isabelianism.
