After reading the book The Da Vinci Code, finding it interesting yet in no doubt a pack of untruths from beginning to end, I decided not to watch the film.

Being eager not to see the film was my choice and nobody else’s. I decided to write in though to inquire why everybody is in hysterics over this particular film.

Having read the book I have reason to believe that the film is complete nonsense from beginning to end again, but alas some people are partial to this kind of film while others are not.

A true believer in God will not let this stupid film discredit His name. For God’s sake, isn’t it about time everybody stopped writing in favour or against this film and let democracy rule?

If people are against this film being viewed because it offends their religion they should do like I did and give it a miss altogether. Don’t these religious fanatics realise that the more the film is given propaganda even if not to watch it, the more people would actually want to see it?

A case of forbidden fruit!
