Kids Will See "R" Rated Passion

"The violence is necessary to understand the sacrifice Jesus made," says First Family pastor Jerry Johnston. His Baptist church has rented out a half-dozen theaters in Kansas City, Kan., and has reserved auditoriums the night of Feb. 27 for children 11 and older. Johnston concedes they'll be disturbed by the violence. "I hope they're disturbed enough to make their peace with Jesus."

Great. Just great. I was going to write all sorts of comments about how Johnston is obviously not a parent, but I think (or rather, hope) even people without children will recoil from his sentiments.
