So now I know Tom Hanks is another one of those Hollywood faith-deficient twits.

So are the millions upon millions who bought the novel then.

I prayerfully hope the Catholic Church realizes how deficient religious education and catechesis have been post-Vatican II, especially in the United States. That many otherwise-observant Catholics might buy the arguments and "facts" presented in "The Da Vinci Code" is appalling.

I'd say your assertion is correct.

I am Catholic and I had friends who said I should read the book because it would "help me question my faith." Really? I responded with this remark: "If I knew of a book that I thought would help you question the love you have for your son, would you read it?" Silence.

Yeah, I know, the book is fiction. However, there are many, many people in America who love a conspiracy - and possess no religious faith.

Nothing like a good conspiracy to keep you warm at night - when your faith does not.

See yah. -Rex
