Perspective

Andrew Sullivan hated The Passion of the Christ. It was too bloody, too violent. Cruel. Sadistic. Demented. Soul-killing. Horrible.

It was just a movie and it only lasted two hours.

The real life events depicted in that film took place in the span of a single day. Less than 24 hours.

Terri Schiavo has been denied water for over eight days. Over two hundred hours.
