Actually, I think the point is different than the point some made about The Passion. I didn't think it would happen here. THIS movie, though, is different. It attacks the FAITH of a people, as opposed to supposedly attacking the people themselves (Jewish characters in The Passion). BTW: I never saw The Passion, so have no idea how valid the criticisms are.

Actually, Brown's interested in making a ton of money. He knew an attack on Christianity would be greeted enthusiastically by the "beautiful people", while an attack on Islam would not only get him dis-invited to the right cocktail parties, it would get him targeted for a Jihad. So he attacks a faith he can attack safely and with a good profit margin, while maintaining his PC credentials with the fine wine & limousine crowd.
