...The latest broadside came from Archbishop Angelo Amato, the number two official in the Vatican doctrinal office which was headed by Pope Benedict until his election last year.
Amato, addressing a Catholic conference in Rome, called the book "stridently anti-Christian .. full of calumnies, offences and historical and theological errors regarding Jesus, the Gospels and the Church."
He added: "I hope that you all will boycott the film."
I wonder if the Archbishop knows that The Da Vinci Code is just a movie. It's not a National Geographic documentary or anything. It's just a movie.
I just love the way the Catholic Church shows it's faith in it's followers faith.
Don't you just love organized religion?
