Pantheism ‘During the filming of "The Passion of the Christ," Jim Caviezel, who played Jesus, was struck by lightning twice. The first incident occurred in Mata, Italy, while filming the Sermon on the Mount, and the second happened while he was on the cross. Additionally, a key set production assistant, Jan Michelini, was also struck by lightning during filming, earning him the nickname "Lightning Boy".’ ai overview
America might be a paradox of the Christian religion where capitalism and gun rights seem so insurmountable that American Christians might sometimes appear to be trying to parody the Christian religion as a final nail in the coffin so to speak. Yet the way Christianity is intrinsically forgiving means that anti-Christianity can backfire if they built up such a lead over Christianity that underestimating their own strength and surrendering to Christianity as a version of double espionage might make it nearly insurmountable for others to achieve an equal amount of supremacy over Christianity as we uniquely see in American exceptionalism. So the concept of surviving a lightning bolt in the Passion of the Christ set might have almost parodied the idea that Jesus might really have just fell into a coma on the cross without actually dying if the Romans weren’t skilled enough at taking His pulse for Him to re-awaken a few days later in the cave! Perhaps the idea of parodying the Christian religion can evoke determinism in creating a double negative such that who knows whether the lightning bolt was slightly more intentional than accidental if no one ever had to invoke a divine religion if everyone had already symbolically given up Christianity!
