It appears that Mel Gibson's epic film The Passion of the Christ has made a rare and genuine Catholic disciple out of actor Jim Caviezel, who played the part of Christ in the movie.
Speaking at a gathering of Catholic college students in Chicago this past Wednesday, Caviezel said that we have to be "warriors, ready to risk their reputations, their names, even our very lives, to stand for the truth." He said that to be with Christ we must stand apart from the world and bring the sword of truth, without compromise, without making concessions. "Set yourselves apart from this corrupt generation," he challenged those in attendance. "Be saints. You weren’t made to fit in. You were born to stand out."
