Just Fiction, Huh?

"Don't get so worked up over a novel!" they said. Some of us heard that comment numerous times after The DaVinci Code was released. Now, it's reported that two Italian men didn't get the memo (that Dan Brown's novel is "just fiction" and nobody would really take it seriously). These two Browniacs tore away part of a wall at St. Luke's Church in Shropshire, England, looking for "clues." The church has a stained glass window in which the Apostle John looks somewhat feminine (falsely believed to be Mary Magdalene).

It's amazing what people will do for a lie - what will we do for the truth (which doesn't, of course, include vandalizing a church!).
