It was late and I was nearly asleep. I was flipping channels and happen to stop on a Christian televangelist show. I sometimes watch these types of programs simply for the comedic value of some of the things they say, plus it helps me sleep. However this time something they were talking about caught my attention from near R.E.M.

The wild eyed man on the T.V. was talking about Dan Browns popular book and soon to be released movie, “The Da Vinci Code”. There was talk of blasphemy, lies, and boycotts. He was quoting bible scriptures right and left talking about how the false prophets will come to deceive the masses, fire and brimstone, and relating Mr. Brown to the Anti-******.

I have read the publication in question and enjoyed it thoroughly. In my opinion it was a well written and well thought out story of adventure. It is the type of book that is hard to put down. I recommend it to everyone here.

To this guy on T.V. however, it was an affront to everything he holds sacred. He was actually angry over the whole thing. He called on Christians everywhere to boycott the movie and protest outside theaters. He vowed to fight this movie until the day his good lord takes him away to whatever paradise they are selling people nowadays. He never mentioned book burning but I could see in his eyes he was thinking it. I wonder if he knows the book is actually a sequel?

I did some research and found this crackpot book-burner isn’t alone. There are nut jobs out there actually planning on protesting the release of this movie. It is a completely fictional story that makes no claims to be based in fact and yet there are still people who would like to see it suppressed. These are supposedly good Christian people who only have our best interests in mind.

I say screw these people. Everybody go out (download), regardless of your religious beliefs, watch this movie and enjoy it for what it is. A well put together piece of fictional work.

Also, don’t forget the eggs. You will need something to throw at the sign-wielding idiots.

I read the book. I look forward to the movie.
All this opposition is only gonna make people want to see it more. The dude's voluntarily/unintentionally publicizing the movie. What a shmuck lol.

Its the equivalent of the Satanic Verses (By Salmann Rushdi) of Christianity.. :D. Sucks when the truth hurts doesn't it? I hope a Jew one day has the balls to make one for Judaism and how its also changed.. Difference between Islam and Christianity is that Christianity had some substance when JC was alive, but then drastically was changed by the Romans. And Islam, well Islam was a joke from the very start :D. Muhhamed planned the whole thing himself..

Unfortunatelly, there is also a posibillity of delay on the movie due to recent court decision that the authors stoled ideas from other book. I hope that will not happen since I really want to see it.
