Constantine’s Sword is the story of James Carroll; a former Catholic priest on a journey to
confront his past and uncover the roots of religiously inspired violence and war. His search
also reveals a growing scandal involving religious infiltration of the U.S. military and the
terrible consequences of religion’s influence on America’s foreign policy.
Carroll focuses on Christian antisemitism as the model for all religious hatred, exposing the
cross as a symbol of a long history of violence against Jews (and, most recently, Moslems).
The film brings the history of religious intolerance to life, tracing it as a source of the
fanaticism that threatens the world today. At its core, Constantine’s Sword is a compelling
personal narrative — a kind of detective story — as one man uncovers the dark areas of his
own past, searching for a better future.
A panel discussion follows with:
Dean Scott Richardson, Rabbi Laurie Coskey, Professor Florence Gillman, Pastor Jack Lindquist and Pastor Tony Wolfe
