A Wrong Message.

What happens when the message you're spreading is the right one, but in a wrong direction?
I'm talking about religion.. Catholicism specifically.
I just came from watching 'Angels & Demons', and before you start to judge me let me tell you that i think i already have the right criteria to not let those movies change my faith or believes.

All i can say is that there's, in fact, something 100% right."Religion is flawed because man is flawed".. A quote said by Cardinal Strauss.And it's true.. that's exactly why i think we shouldn't believe in images, other humans (called 'Saints'), etc. I RESPECT THEM, BUT I DON'T ADORE THEM. God is the only one who deserves my adoration, because he is my father, creator and saviour.
That's all i needed to say.. If you're about to see 'Angels & Demons', be confident about your believes. Religion is a delicate topic so i'm trying to be partially open minded with every single point of view.

I watched Da Vinci Code and despite the stupid argument of the whole story, i still think that as a movie it wasn't that good.

It is what it is, a movie, although I feel it is disrespectful. God deserves all our praise and respect. These books and movies, even though they are all fiction, they are PURE CRAP.

About the other stuff.. josh. I am so glad you are clear about saints. They were humans and they died: they can't talk, they can't hear, they can't feel. God is a living god. He is everywhere.

A mi me gustó muuucho la película y es verdad lo que dijiste, la religión y todo lo que ha creado el hombre falla por eso mismo, porque nadie es perfecto y si lo fuéramos, en donde está la gracia de las cosas? La religión siempre es un tema delicado, cada quién cree en lo que quiere creer

I understand your point of view. and really agree. Religion, God, and so on... is something very positive. The problem is the way men portray the religion. Sadly throughout history, many were the priests, popes, etc that did not do God's words, and all they did was execute their personal agenda! Hello... inquisition!!? I really don't think God would want us to persecute and torture and kill those that question the religion. That is why there was the rupture with Henry VIII, building a new church, with no image adoration, closer to GOD! Roman Catholicism is more based on men's words than GOD's intentions.
