Clancy you and frogjerk basically said the samething, I think the movie is offensive even though it is just a movie and Brown states such, but the rhetoric in defending Christians caused more people to see the movie, making money for Brown.
The same thing happened when Fahrenheit 9\11 by Michael Moore, was discussed seemingly forever, moviegoers paid Moore handsomly, his movie was offensive as well, although in a different way.
Well, that may be but we can't keep quiet and just let disrespect for Jesus go unchallenged.
It is not fair to Jesus that none would speak up for Him.
There will always be those who will disrespect religion but when there are people who call them on it, it tells others that someone cares. If no one speaks up, it tells others that no one cares and that Jesus is not worth defending.
You might be surprised at how many people are worried that this stupid movie will cause so many to believe all biblical teaching is false. And the result? They may never receive eternal life because they choose to believe a stupid movie. That is their fault but it is a shame over a stupid book.
