You might want to take a look at an old post on Metafilter regarding Rene Girard and Scapegoat Theory. Metafilter seems to be off-line right now so I can't post the link, but Girard sheds a lot of light on mythology, sacrifice and Christianity. He really should be required reading regarding this whole Passion movie, the Iraq war for that matter too and everything involved with violence.
