Whose God May We Mock?

Pat Buchanan writes about the Da Vinci Code and the movie's blasphemy towards Catholics. Yes, it's fictional - just as were the Danish cartoons that caused Muslims to riot in the streets and threaten to kill the offenders.

In nine countries of Europe, Holocaust denial is a crime. In the United States, to deny the Holocaust happened or suggest that it has been exaggerated is not a crime, but marks one down as a social leper...

Like the "Hitler's Pope" smear of Pius XII, a man who did more than any other to save the Jews in World War II, "The Da Vinci Code" is a Big Lie that, though readily refuted by the facts, will be believed.

Unfortunately, we already know the answer to Buchanan's question.
