i saw the movie the first weekend it was in widespread distro....... i'm not catholic but i am a follower of Christ. at this point i'm not affiliated with a denomination, really, but i try to attend church Sunday mornings. i focus more on a personal relationship with God rather than ritual, legalistic traditions, etc. i loved the movie. at no point did anyone say anything i could see as blasphemous, and it was in fact quite reverent towards actual deities. Today on "Fresh Air" on NPR on my way between school and work i heard an interview with Kevin Smith. it was a wonderful interview... one great quote he had was "church is good. God is better." Smith himself has a lot of very good things to say about faith and his own relationship to spirituality. it was a very informative interview, as most Fresh Air interviews i've heard have been. joel
