"Boycott Da Vinci Code film": top Vatican official

[deadly7]

The ideas are very convincing, and it's the kind of thing the Church WOULD do.  There's no strong evidence either way, except for the text in the bible, but that's like using an eyewitness account as proof. 

Hahaha, you just reminded me of Mock Trial.  Eyewitnesses suck balls.

Like deadly said, if you do some research, the events don't line up.  It's just what it was set out to be: a fantasy.

The sad thing is the lack of education about it.  DVC was a novel (i.e., long and fiction), and the author refuses to divulge where he got his information.  And yet people act as if it's God's word.

Oh wait, if they thought it was God's word, they'd jump to something else really quickly.  :P

Unfortunately, there are an abundance of idiots who actually adopt the contents of the book as fact. :(

I have no idea what the davinci code is about, but that statement is also true of the bible.

It's much, much different.  The bible was written thousands of years ago by people who personally interacted with Jesus Christ.

The Da Vinci Code was written by Dan Brown--a modern day author.

Looks quite a bit like Jesus to me.

HAHAHA.  I love you.

I could understand warning about the movie, but suggesting a boycott?  Hardly the right approach.  How can you defend your religion if you don't know how it is being attacked.  Hell...that's what I though Apologetics was all about. Meh.  Crazy kids and their movies.

"A paris murder and clues hidden in paintings by leonardo da vinci lead to the discovery of a 2000 religious mystery protected by a powerful group of christians. Revealing the secret could shake the entire foundation of the christian faith.  That is the plot of author Dan Brown's book. More than 40 Million copies have been sold since it's 2003 release. A movie by the same name will open later this month. Some christians are upset over the book and the film. They label them blasphemes. I read the book a couple of years ago. I though it was terrific entertainment. Nothing more nothing less. I found it in the fiction section of the bookstore. I doubt any library labels it as a reference book. Nothing in the book caused me to question my own religious beliefs. Anymore then science fiction books make me believe in parallel universes, or a middle earth inpopulated with sorcerers and trolls. I'm sure everyone will survive the da vinci code movie just fine. And that's the point."

You must end your life in an honorable fashion.  It is the only way for you to die with any sort of dignity now.
