There are enough Catholics in the US, and non-Catholics who would defend them (other Christians and Jews) that they should have enough political power if they would only defend their faith from the popular culture's smear. However, as a whole (generalization, not overgeneralization), Catholics simply accept popular culture without a protest. Until the last election most voted for the pro-abortion and Anti-christianity party. Will Catholics boycott this movie and ask other Christians to do the same? Will they boycott any future Hanks and Howard movies? Will they heap scorn and shame onto their heads for this bigoted and vicious movie? If not, then whining about it will not be enough.

I totally agree. It's so disappointing that the beloved "Opie" and "Forrest Gump" would participate in this trashing of the religion (Christianity) that has historically freed more people than any other movement in history.

I have never watched a Woody Allen movie since he married his daughter, never an Elizabeth Taylor movie since she broke up Richard Burton's marriage, and never a Roman Polanski movie since he was convicted of child rape -- not even as a rental or on cable, where viewership can be tabulated on the other end.
