Christian Loudmouths Unhappy with "The Kingdom of Heaven"

Christian conservatives to do battle against crusader film
Christian conservatives in America are marshalling their forces against Sir Ridley Scott’s forthcoming crusader epic, The Kingdom of Heaven, claiming the film is insulting and unfair.

Is there anything Christian Conservatives don't find insulting and unfair to them?

Scott said he has tried hard to be fair to both sides in his film, which depicts the 12th-century battle between Muslims and Christians for Jerusalem.

Bob Waliszewski, director of Plugged In Film Review, a programme heard on 300 US radio stations, said the film depicted Christians as “mean-spirited”, while Saladin, the Muslim leader, was shown as a chivalrous knight.

"The Bishop of Jerusalem is a coward who deserts his flock, and most of the crusaders are driven by greed rather than piety," he said. "This is not how Christians I know see each other..."


Aww...poor guy. How unfortunate for him to have reality intrude on his fantasy world where all Christians are good and pure and benevolent.
