I go by what's basically good or bad behavior. <BR/>What I do know for sure is that by viewing this movie and being told that Jesus Christ was married and fathered children, his "divinity" is stripped away. His divinity is the very underpinning of the Christian faith. So, you see, there is an insidious message being conveyed whether on purpose or not. The clergy see this as just another assault on the very foundation of Christianity.<BR/>For most of us this may be an amusing and entertaining movie (although early critical acclaim say it's boring) but to many of the faithful, it is one more little shove towards "doubt". Anything that casts doubt on the very existence of Christ, AKA God, as divine must, IMHO, be some kind of a sin.romanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15988548647887978919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1148146953485579712006-05-20T19:42:00.000+02:002006-05-20T19:42:00.000+02:00As could be predicted, the warnings are not having...As could be predicted, the warnings are not having the desired effect.

Calling something I do 'sinful' is meaningless, because I don't believe in sin. But to someone who does, it's a big thing. So some priest threatening people with the 'sin' word is nasty. It's the equivalant of being mugged by your priest. <BR/><BR/>It's treating people like children...and we can't just blame the church for doing that.beatroothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11242716221133886807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1148069636319395662006-05-19T22:13:00.000+02:002006-05-19T22:13:00.000+02:00No so fast fast, RomanWatching a movie (or anythin...No so fast fast, Roman<BR/><BR/>Watching a movie (or anything else for that matter) cannot be a sin. A sin must involve either the breaking of one of the commandments (either Church's or of the of the 10) or an action that harms somebody. It's one thing to tell people that a movie is factually wrong, bad or even immoral. But telling people that by watching it they will be commiting a sin is very wrong.

The concept of "sinning" will likely only persuade devout church-going Christians to boycott the movie. The bishop of Tarnow's remarks are totally appropriate and necessary. Any priest or member of the clergy who does not warn their "flocks" to shun this movie is guilty of deriliction of duty.romanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15988548647887978919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1148061587118406572006-05-19T19:59:00.000+02:002006-05-19T19:59:00.000+02:00like your blog. i work in news too & all the past ...like your blog. i work in news too & all the past few days just watched the headlines go by about which country has been hit by the controversy - Greece, Thailand, Indonesia, etc etc and Poland, too. Actually I don't give too much of a shit about it but it's ridiculous to say seeing the movie is a sin. And not that I think the Da Vinci Code is a great way to expose yourself to "the world of ideas," but when the Church says seeing it is a sin, the Church reveals its fear of them.SarahJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497062670296130228noreply@blogger.com
