GBeck on radio says DaVinci Code has as many errors as Fahrenheit 911
He said the problem with the DaVinci Code is that so many Americans know nothing about the history of the Christian church so they will believe anything they read or see about it. (A point I basically agree with.)

He then went on to say: 'Americans will believe anything, just see how many believed MM's movie, despite its numerous errors.'

34. Yep.
Even Dan Brown says such. The radical religious right just is so insecure with itself that it feels threatened even by a work of fiction. Geez!

6. F911
Michael Moore worked really hard to make sure there were no errors of fact in F9/11.

What "errors" is this guy refering to?

9. Glen Beck is a flaming piece of crap headed down to hell
Who gives a flying "f" what he thinks.

Certainly makes me like it more - just knowing it bothers the RW haters.

13. Lord of the Rings has "errors", too. It's FICTION, not fact.
Get a grip, Mr. Beck. Better yet, do the world a favor and commit hara-kiri.

16. 'The Da Vinci Code' is NOT a documentary!
It is a work of FICTION (much like the Bible, but that's another story)!

Can ya get that through your thick skulls, you crazy fundies?

Edited on Sat May-20-06 04:47 PM by Sinti
As if the Cabal wouldn't have dragged him across broken glass and into court. If many of the Christians knew much more about the "history" of their religion they probably wouldn't be Christians anymore. Why do they continue this meme of people not being able to distinguish between life and cinema, or TV, or video games?

19. How does he know?
I bet he never saw either movie more less read the book. Some people can’t tell the difference between fact an fiction. Fahrenheit fact. Da Vinci fiction. Now tell me which movie is the scarier?

21. Glen Beck's a Nazi...
Who gives a fuck what he has to say about anything. He gets paid to sell whatever fucked up ideas the government wants us to tolerate. I've stopped watching CNN since that turd got hired and that was the only MSM outlet I could barely tolerate. My philosophy is, if it isn't on C-span, it didn't happen or they're lying about it if it did. Thank goodness we still have the internet but I guess this is too good to last. Soon, they'll figure out a way to close this off as well and America will die. But I say, if America dies, good riddance to bad rubbish. If we crumble because of some worthless greedy fuckheads, we don't deserve the legacy we've been handed. Better to let it all die than to suffer in agony; a nation lost and desolate in the remembering of what we should have been. Fuck, put her out of her misery and let it be done quick. This is probably why Terri Schaivo had such an impact on everyone, she's a vision of our future.

22. The DaVinci code is FICTION. Therefore, how does fiction
have errors? Americans will believe anything evidently. Someone needs to inform him.

25. I watched "All The President's Men" last night on PBS
I suggest everyone rent it if you haven't seen it in awhile. It's amazing how the Nixon people are exactly like the Bush people today.

last night. She had never seen it. Good movie--goes to show how you cannot trust politicians and people in power.

28. What is the history of the church except what the church wants you
to know? It is a secret organization as much as any that was fully in control of its press releases for almost 2,000 years? Has it opened up its archives so that an independent study can be made of its claims? Or are we supposed to agree to its monolithic claim of infallibility on matters of faith alone?

29. Someone tell Glenn that the Bible has errors too!
The bible is just as much a work of fiction as Dan Brown's book.

Personally I don't believe a damn thing that comes out of that corrupt establishment in Rome. In my opinion, God would never sanction such an evil as the Catholic Church. The countless millions of people that have been slaughtered to protect its wealth, power, and greed can only be the work of the devil himself.

Did God create this planet and the human race so that we can spend countless centuries fighting and killing in his name? Is that the purpose of his creation?

Jesus wouldn't be pleased....

30. Too many errors to be Farenhieght 9/11
Edited on Sat May-20-06 06:00 PM by Mathew952
:rant: Well, I'm an athiest( Please note I've heard every insult about it) And I'll say the movie is about as acurate as the reports on WMD's in iraq. The movie is a load of consipracy theory crap, Directed by the same idiot who screwed up a 61 page Dr. suess book ( how the grinch stole christmass) movie,Depending on suspense, people taking off bi-focals in shock, a man resembling Bob from "What about bob?" Murmuring " da vinci" and making up connections, and chase seneces in european Eco- cars crashing in to gas tankers. the whole thing is retarded and relies on action and controversey to accomplish any thing. also, Any one could have said those things about the painting, Like there are 3 windows in the scene, and there are three major forms of muslims in iraq, so jesus must be hiding in iraq.Plus, he was supposed to be investigating a murder.His real job should have been " da legal code".aLSO, stop picking on albino people.Just like people who support bush, they are a minority. On the christian side ( whcich is where all the hate mail will come from)These are the people who are prostesting A disney movie( over the hedge), saying you can't shop at stores that say happy holidays( honestly, they're just bieng respectful, and if offends you that bad just suck it up big baby)and saying world war three won't be that bad. Also, It's your own fault. If you didn't start all of this controversy, no one would watch it, but the people who are beleving it are the idiots who say every thing is god or magic, so there your own people.
To Glenn beck:
You are the result of a peice of left wing conspiracy ( F-9/11) and a piece of right wing propaganda ( farenhype) combined with the sense your somehow better than us, because your on the radio, and that shiny microphone makes you feel like such a big boy now.:sarcasm: You act as if you are a shining becon of hope in a storm, a journalist who is going to suddenly change 50 years of corruption by pretending to be some wounderful bi-partison person who all can identify with in some magical way, and is going to save ammerica. Let's see you run becker. oh, wait I forgot, you need baking to do that. what will your campain be? some flyers on phone poles from the kinko's down the street?Quit being a pompus jerk and , if you are actually able to take your mouth of your shiny microphone and read this, pride your self you got a show, which i'm sure will endure many seconds of life.Ca you tell I hate you? Quit being the jesus of suburbia. that's green peaces job. I mean green day.Dye-Dye.

32. Ah...perfect, an atheist that hates the movie!
The movie just throws out there a different version of christianity than the one preached by the church. It comes to me as no surprise why an atheist doesn't like the movie. In fact, Dan Brown says a good percentage of the hate mail he gets comes from atheists. Because this book and movie does not challange the existance of god. Which is why you hate it and dismiss everything it says. You don't believe in any kind of higher power or deity. Correct?

Atheists to me are the most closed-minded people I have ever met. Because they are just as bad as the conservative christian ultra-right. You go around claiming you are smarter than everyone else. You go around acting like you know the truth. Well you know what...So do catholics. So do Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and every other religion on this planet. You go around acting like you know the truth. And you know what, you don't know jack-shit! You don't know don't know anything. And neither does anyone else.

This movie is as bogus as your claim that life was created through evolution. Because guess what...that isn't scientifically or historically proven either.

If you are searching for the truth of how life was created or to define the meaning of life, I suggest opening up your mind just a little bit. Otherwise you sound no different to me than the stupid preacher that's on my TV every Sunday morning.
