oh mona lisa, who is she

i was walking to the bus stop after school today when a strange fellow approached me. he wanted to give me a booklet.

of course, my first thought was
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?" my special ninja training taught me to be wary of strange people, especially if they want to give me something. i briefly contemplated throwing a few ninja stars at him but banished the thought.

i realised that this guy and his male companion were both giving out booklets. because i'm such a kind soul, i always take flyers/booklets/whatever from such sad fucks who give them out, so that they can finish their job sooner and go home.

so i took the booklet and took a look at it. i got a shock after seeing a scary yellow face staring back at me. i nearly stabbed it with my samurai sword but realised i would probably poke my hand.


scary shit.

"a companion guide to the movie or novel!"

and then i realised it's one of those christian books trying to debunk the 'tale' of the da vinci code. except this time they are sly and disguised it as a 'companion guide' to fool stupid kids.

the thing i don't understand is WHY WHY WHY are christians so caught up in this da vinci mess? they claim to know it's a story book, and yet get so worried that people would take it for the truth.

and WHY WHY WHY are they so worried?

if a christian read the book, he'd probably laugh and giggle and die, because hopefully he's smart enough to realise it's fiction.

if a non-christian reads the book, he'd possibly believe it, but SO WHAT? he's not a christian, so why bother about what he thinks?

i read in the straits times forum that singapore should ban the movie, because it's EVIL AND THE WORK OF THE DEVIL. the person even compared it to some satanic book, and asked if the satanic book would be allowed to be screened if it were made into a movie.

seriously, it makes me spazz uncontrolably.

anyway, the straits times forum is 99% filled with people with nothing better to do, and 1% people who have nothing better to do and thus reply the mails from the 99%.

i once read about a person (idiot) who complained about a girl cutting her boyfriend's fingernails in the MRT. the person (idiot) said it was unhygienic because the girl "brushed the clippings and powder on the floor."

the link i'm trying to make is that people who write in to the straits times forum are idiots with nothing better to do, and christians who get their panties up in a knot over the da vinci scandal are idiots with nothing better to do.
