You've summed it up pretty well in # 263. It's still depressing ( I am referring to Aquinasfan's post # 1) to see so many, and so many here, fall for this scam and use all kinds of mental gymnastics to excuse their following the mob of lemmings to the bookstores and then to the movie theaters on the opening weekend no less, while claiming to be independent thinkers. Hellllloooooo!

I guess the pull of popular culture is irresistible, we have to connect, we have to belong, we have to be part of it. Boycott? Are you crazy? Can't boycott Disneyland because of the Fag Days there, and can't boycott Sex in the City, neither. No, the book is not "well written", no, it's not just "FICTION", and no, you really don't have to read it, don't have to see the movie! What a concept! You mean I don't have to read what every semi-literate peasant out here does?

You're correct. I know a couple of Brown cultists. They think Brown's a genius and that he really did conduct years of historical research through libraries and archives. And that he made the shocking discovery that Christianity has been fake all along. That the Son of Man was really the Con of Man. What's more, they think Brown himself believes all this garbage.

That's where the comparison to Michael Moore is really appropriate. Moore's really slavish followers not only believe him, but believe Moore himself really believes the nonsense he puts in his books and films. Neither Moore nor Brown believe their assertions, but they've hit a cash cow by peddling those assertions to the gullible.

Yep and it is getting to the point after nearly 300 posts, that there are a couple posters who it is not worth discussing it anymore with.
