amen to that!

listening to the radio this morning on the way into work. of course every morning show was all over the topic of "The Davinici Code".

i've been asked how i feel, as a Christian, about this movie. i've found it difficult to articulate my stance. country music news guru, Jimmy Carter, summed it up perfectly this morning in regard to the uproar amongst Christians over this movie:

"if your faith can be shaken by a movie, then your faith needs more exercise."

i think this sums up people's beliefs in anything really. because if they can be so easily challenged & influenced by the world around, clearly you do not back what you "claim" to believe with much conviction.

and that's where i stand.

2 with their own thoughts:

It's not only fiction, it's wicked OLD fiction. Why does the world seem to "rediscover" this old legend every couple of decades and think it's something new? For heaven's sake, people, go learn your history. I'll give you a hint: Gnosticism. Discuss among yourselves...
