Faith is the acceptance of things we can't see, after all, and the idea that someone would suddenly believe that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married just because "Da Vinci" actor Ian McKellen said so suggests a faith that probably wasn't all that strong to begin with.

So go ahead and cause those with weak faith (or no faith) to stumble. What did Jesus say about causing people to stumble?

See post 9: urbane, sophisticated, usually left-leaning Papatola wouldn't catch that theological nuance (and wouldn't want to be named among the group that catches it).
