A spoof of Mel Gibson's Christmas cards, which should really be apology cards for his reprehensible and irrational behavior in recent years.

This celebrity Christmas card depicts a somber Mel Gibson in front of a festive Christmas tree. He is holding a gaily-decorated gift that prominently displays his feelings of remorse. Mel’s still handsome face has some indication of his aging quickly from a little too much stress or, dare I say, alcohol use. The recipient of this Christmas card can surely fill in their own opinion as to what Mel is sorry for.

Mel Gibson born in Peekskill, New York on January 3rd, 1956, the sixth of 11 children, moved to Australia when he was 12. His father, a staunch Roman Catholic, moved the family so his boys would not have to go to Vietnam. His father held strong beliefs concerning his religion. When Mel did the The Passion of the Christ movie, it caused a great deal of controversy concerning its treatment of the Jews. His father, Hutton, had made some anti-Semitic remarks that were widely publicized. Mel Gibson claimed that his father’s opinions were not his own and that he was guided by the Holy Spirit while making the movie. That begs the question, “Where was the Holy Spirit when you were arrested for drunk driving and making anti-Semitic remarks?” Is it possible that Mel was apologizing for the anti-Semitism in this Christmas card?

Mel Gibson married his wife, Robin, in 1980 and they have seven children together. It recently came out that they were now getting a divorce. A devout Catholic who built his own church so the mass would be said in Latin, is getting a divorce?!? Pray tell, Mel, what has happened to Mad Max and his moral center? Have you gone off the deep end? Perhaps this Celebrity Christmas card is to apologize to your wife for your “Celebrity” behavior.

Although this farcical Christmas card will not actually be sent by Mel Gibson, maybe it should be. A talented and successful actor, Mel Gibson seems to have gotten off track somehow. Perhaps he learned the wrong lessons at his father’s knee and should go back to his Catholic training and ask the Holy Spirit to guide him to the true meaning of Christianity.
