Andy Rooney of 60 Minutes. . . when asked if he'd seen the film, replied, "I'm not gonna pay $9 just for a few laughs."

Note the contempt here. "The Passion of the Christ" is the story of Christ's scourging and crucifiction. Those are the "few laughs" Ronney doesn't want to pay to see.

Andy could redeem himself by saying the same thing about a movie about Mohammed.

Then he could join the ranks of Salman Rushdie.
