I agree it is bunk. Christians should maintain their cool about this. It is an obvious attempt to inflame people. Remember, the cartoons of Mohammad? See how Muslims reacted? I think the best approach here is to consider the source and present the facts. Things like the DaVinci Code and this documentary are good opportunities for Christians.

As a Christian, I have to say that this is nothing for us to get mad about, but, heaven knows, I'll walk into church on Sunday and someone will be pissy about this. Ugh.
