Sunday Programme on The Passion of the Christ

There was a short feature yesterday morning on the BBC Radio 4 programme Sunday. Roger Bolton interviews Alistair McGrath and Dan Cohn Sherbok:



The Passion debate



It's not clear from the feature whether either of the two have seen the film and my guess is that they haven't, so the discussion a little less focused than it might have been. Dan Cohn Sherbok is concerned that the film could encourage anti-Semitism; Alistair McGrath seems less convinced and is hopeful that the film will provide the opportunity for people to reflect on the Passion Narrative.
