Sorry , I though FR had a better level of literacy in it's participants.It's the same mind set as the people who constantly see race under every bed .Sad
ROTF LOL
HA HA HA
Ahem. Excuse me, good one...
Who said there was? Get over your superiority complex. I can debate any issue I like, and as a non-bleiever I am not "offended" by anything except the perpetuation of BS. You're obviously a fan of such, but I would never dream of telling you to get over whatever makes you happy.
Now get over it, and let us get on with whatever we feel like discussing.
I have
Hollywood is a hell hole of ant Christian sentiment.this movie however dosen't reflect that .Did you read the book by the way ?or are you added to the list of the others who are blowing it out your arse.

You are the only one advocating book burning.
I've read through most of the posts on this thread, and all you've done is attack people, repeatedly calling them "idiot, dumb, etc". There are rules for polite conversation, and posting on FR and I think you should attempt to learn them.
My response was appropriate given your hateful mean-spirited post addressed to me.
I suggest you read the post by those who see this book as such a terrible thing. It's a dime store novel ,nothing else. read it and find out yourself.
BTW, how much to rent Six for an hour or three? :o)
No problem .
No problem .
As I understand it, one of the writers claimed they were hypotheses, and didn't claim that these things were the final truth, but educated guesses. Brown, on the other hand, seems to be saying that he looked into them and BELIEVES them.
"My prediction is that the da vinci code heresy movie will crash and burn as it should."
Poor, beach-read writing != heresy. Unless you're a big fan of the Inquisition and the Witch Trials?
" No believing Christian should give any money to this type of tripe."
No fan of any film should give money to a movie-based-on-a-book, as the movie never does the book justice. "Shawshank Redemption" and "Jaws" being 2 glaring exceptions.
" On the other hand 'The Chronicles of Narnia' by C.S. Lewis that is due in theaters by Christmas will approach the 'Passion of the Christ' in sales."
I doubt it will be nearly as good as the children's cartoon movie of the same name they used to show back in the 70s. I LOVED "Chronicles...". So much so that I read every book in the series. Although it didn't do much for my Christianity, it was still a very entertaining book series. Also, might not some Christians be offended at the "Jesus is a Big Lion" caricature and consider that blasphemy? Jesus wasn't a lion, nor was he killed by a witch!!
But, since I have read all the books, the movie can not possibly measure up to the images my mind already conjured when reading!
How will we ever go on.........?
Well, I won't. For the same reason I wouldn't have gone to see Maplethorpes so called "art."
This does not mean my faith is thin. I just don't like or will not promote someone who slanders my faith. --And makes loads of money by doing it, cleverly.
Knock off the insults.
Holy Blood, Holy Grail is one bore of a book and beyond undocumented. They had nerve even trying to pull thatone off.Pretty much zero factual accounts or proof of anything.
Good book on night you can't sleep ..ZZZZZZZZZZZ
Put me on all your lists.
