I read it's in Aramaic and Latin (I seem to remember a third language mentioned....) and it's all subtitled. He didn't do it in English because they didn't speak English. He wanted to retain authenticity.

Here's the quote; take it how you will.

“There is no salvation for those outside the Church,” Gibson replied. “I believe it.”

"Put it this way. My wife is a saint. She’s a much better person than I am. Honestly. She’s, like, Episcopalian, Church of England. She prays, she believes in God, she knows Jesus, she believes in that stuff. And it’s just not fair if she doesn’t make it, she’s better than I am. But that is a pronouncement from the chair. I go with it.”
I don't think he was speaking from the pulpit or waving a Bible and pronouncing judgment. I just think, right or wrong, he's embraced his faith completely.


As for the movie....Anything that gets this many folks' underwear in a bunch deserves a screening.
