When artisitic license violates history

I've been a big Mel Gibson fan for a while. He just seems like a really, really nice guy. But I'm a bit concerned about historical inaccuracies in The Passion of the Christ. He keeps insisting that he's not an anti-Semite, but I'm wondering if he really understands what he's doing with this film.

A friend of mine once considered becoming a Catholic, and tells of hearing one student tell another that he could understand a Jewish's student challenge in becoming Catholic, because he had an even bigger change -- he was Presbyterian.

Some people just don't get it.
