Philippine Official Says Ban ‘Da Vinci Code’
The Philippine government should ban the controversial movie “The Da Vinci Code,” a senior official in the mainly Catholic country said on Wednesday, describing the religious thriller as blasphemous.
The film, based on the best-selling fiction novel of the same title, is due to open in Manila’s cinemas next week.
“I think we should do everything not to allow it to be shown,” said Eduardo Ermita, executive secretary to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, expressing his personal opinion as a “devout Catholic.”
If they ban the ‘Da Vinci Code’, then they should ban those naughty Barrel Men! Haha!
