""I thought Viet Nam was a Catholic country before the war." I'm not an expert on Vietnam history by any means. I do know that it was a colony of France (a "Catholic" country) for 25 years before we went and got involved. So certainly there were some Catholic churchs influence. But I believe the predominate beliefs are Buddist and Hao Hoa and Chai something or other.."

When I was in California (stayed in Garden Grove (part of Little Saigon)), we went to a Catholic church in Westminster that was packed with Vietnamese. I think most of them were religious refugees--Catholics who left Viet Nam to escape before the Communists murdered them for their faith.

As we all continue to support The Passion and support Mel, lest not forget the raunchy previews.

If your theater previews are more "R" rated then The Passion, COMPLAIN. Let your voice be heard.

Here in CT, the previews were "approved for all audiences" RIGHT. What Hollyweird thinks if OK is much worse than Mel's work.

Complain to the theater management.
