Da Vinci Code blows archdiocese' minds


According to the Washington Post's Kevin Sullivan:

"Christians in many countries denounced the movie The Da Vinci Code as it opened Friday, complaining that the big-screen adaptation of Dan Brown's best-selling novel distorts history and offends Christians.
" 'The Da Vinci Code gratuitously insults Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church,' said Vincent Nichols, the Roman Catholic archbishop of Birmingham, England. 'It deliberately presents fiction as fact.'"

Hey, it presents fiction as fiction. Yes, it distorts history, that's what fiction does. That's why it's called fiction.

If these people really had faith in their beliefs, they would ignore books and movies like The Da Vinci Code. But then that's what they do best, play the victim.

But then anything that pisses-off William Donoghue can't be all bad. It's so much fun watching the steam come out of his ears on tv.
