Religio-Nuts Attack Again

“Offenses, slander, historical and theological errors” - these are just some of the hysterical charges leveled by the Catholic church and it's minions against the soon to be released film “The Da Vinci Code.”

Monsignor Angelo Amato — Pope Benedict XVI's former No. 2 when Benedict was head of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith — made the comments in a speech at the Pontifical Holy Cross University, which is run by the conservative Catholic movement Opus Dei, the ANSA news agency reported.

"I hope all of you boycott this film," the Italian agency quoted Amato as saying. "Slander, offenses and errors that if they were directed toward the Quran or the Shoah would have justifiably provoked a worldwide revolt," he said, referring to Islam's holy book and the Hebrew word for Holocaust.

"Yet because they were directed toward the Catholic Church, they remain 'unpunished,'" he said.

Oh the blasphemy of it all, the book is full of heresy and scorn, how dare this author write such a book attacking Christ! Now just what is it about this book that has the hierarchy in such a tizzy? The main contention of the book is that Jesus married Mary Magdalene, had children, and that this fact has been covered up by the Church for centuries.

A coverup? By the Catholic Church? Jesus was married – to a woman? Surely no one believes this is possible. Catholic priests only like little boys – don't they?
