[Apologetics] DaVinci Code is not the problem

[Marty Rothwell]

Then go ahead and do something, Art!  I want no part of it.  It's old news!
The fire swept through the forest three years ago.  Whatever minds were
changed were changed three years ago.  If you know of anyone who believes
because they saw the movie then let me know.  I hear no one coming out of
the movie believing anything of what it says.  And there have already been
innumerable refutations of the book all over every media you can possibly
conceive of.  How did you want to refute it? Via the internet?  Join the
club!!  Google Da Vinci Code and see what comes up.  What are you going to
say that hasn't been repeated ad nauseum now?  Every bookstore that carries
the book also carries three other books refuting it.

The movie will be out for a few more weeks and then die out.  No big deal.

Stuart,

You seem to acknowledge that the DaVinci Code has
convinced many millions of people that its premise is
somewhat valid.

Then you say, "But it is not a problem solved by
banning a movie."

While I regard the movie to be the work of the devil,
I've never advocated that it be banned per se. I have
proposed that our Apologetics Groups acutally DO
something to fight back against this evil!!!
