Boycott Da Vinci film, Vatican official urges

Apr. 28 (CWNews.com) - The secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has called for a boycott of the film version of The Da Vinci Code, saying that the work is "full of calumnies, offenses, and historical and theological errors."

"I hope you will all boycott it," said Archbishop Angelo Amato at an April 28 seminar on the Church in the media. The seminar was held at the Roman University of the Holy Cross, which is run by Opus Dei, an apostolate that is given an extremely sinister portrayal in The Da Vinci Code.
